Important safety instructions
Isolating switch: make sure this appliance is connected to a circuit which incorporates an
isolating switch providing full disconnection from the power supply.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children of less than 8 years old must be kept away from the appliance unless continuously
supervised. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above, and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, if
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way
and they understand the hazards involved. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by
children without supervision.
After use, ensure the dials are all in the `OFF’ position.
Safe food handling:
Food should be left in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after cooking. This is to
avoid contamination by organisms which may cause potential food poisoning. Particular care
should be taken during warmer weather.
Do not place aluminium foil, dishes with reflective qualities, water, ice or any object on the oven
floor as this will cause a heat build-up which irreversibly damages the enamel.
If the electrical supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised person.
Do not stand or place heavy objects on the door.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since
they scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the cooker.
Do not keep flammable substances in the oven or in the drawer.
Do not operate your appliance by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
Under unfavourable electrical supply conditions, the appliance may cause temporary voltage
drops.
