Installation and Connection
Installation
1. Remove any promotion label from the door.
2. Install the oven on a flat, level surface. The surface must be strong enough
to safely bear the weight (22 kg) of the oven, and the contents. To avoid the
possibility of causing vibration or noise the oven must be in a stable
position.
3. Keep the oven away from heat and water. Exposure to heat and water can
lower oven efficiency and lead to malfunctioning, so be sure to install the
oven away from heat and water sources.
4. Do not block air vents on the top and the sides of the cabinet and also do
not place any articles on the top of the oven. If air vents are blocked during
operation, the oven may overheat, and this may lead to malfunctioning. Hot
air escapes from the vents, so be sure not to obstruct it or let curtains come
between the oven and the rear wall.
5. Place the oven as far away from radios and TV’s as possible. This oven does
conform to EEC requirements* of radio interference suppression, but some
interference may occur if it is placed too close to a radio or TV, so keep
them as far apart as possible.
•
This appliance conforms to the requirements of EEC Radio Interference
Directive 87/308/EEC.
Connecting to the mains
• The oven is delivered with the power cord and a plug for 230–240 V, 50Hz,
earthed socket outlet.
• Earth protection minimizes the risks should a short circuit occur. Check to
ensure the voltage of the oven matches the supply.
N.B. If the oven is connected to the socket via an extension cord, make sure the
cord is earthed.
WARNING! This appliance must not be used on a nonearth protected power
supply.
• Contact an electrician if you are uncertain regarding electrical connection of
the oven or provision of earth protection of the supply.
• This appliance must be earthed. If this appliance is fitted with a non-
rewirable plug for which your socket is unsuitable, the plug should be cut
off and the appropriate plug fitted. If it is necessary to change the fuse in a
nonrewirable plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost
or damaged, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained.
