BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
RATING PLATE
This is situated on the front frame of the appliance
and can be seen upon opening the door.
Alternatively the rating plate may also be found on
the back or top of some models (where applicable).
The appliance must be protected by a suitably rated
fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the appliance is
given on the rating plate.
Do not remove the rating plate from the
appliance as this may invalidate the guarantee.
PREPARING TO USE YOUR APPLIANCE
Wipe over the base of the oven(s) with a soft cloth
and hot soapy water and wash the furniture before
use. We suggest that you run the oven(s) and grill
for 10 – 15 minutes at maximum temperature, to
burn off any residue from their surfaces. Accessible
parts may become hotter than in normal use.
Children should be kept away. During this period an
odour may be emitted, it is therefore advisable to
open a window for ventilation.
THE COOLING FAN FOR THE CONTROLS
The cooling fan comes on immediately when the
grill/top oven is switched on and after a short time
when the main oven is in use. It may run on after
the controls are switched off until the appliance has
cooled. During the initial period the cooling fan may
turn ON and OFF, this is quite normal.
CONDENSATION AND STEAM
When food is heated it produces steam similar to a
boiling kettle. The vents allow some of this steam to
escape. However, always stand back from the
appliance when opening the door(s) to allow any
build up of steam or heat to release.
If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface
on the outside of the appliance, e.g. a trim, it will
condense and produce water droplets. This is quite
normal and is not caused by a fault on the appliance.
To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away
condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
For your safety wall coverings at the rear of the
appliance should be securely fixed to the wall.
COOKWARE
Main oven - Do not use baking trays larger than
30cm x 30cm (12” x 12”) as they will restrict the
circulation of heat and may affect performance.
