Precautions and tips
This appliance has been designed and
manufactured in compliance with international safety
standards. The following warnings are provided for
safety reasons and must be read carefully.
General safety
The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for
commercial or industrial use.
The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to
leave the appliance exposed to rain and storms.
When moving or positioning the appliance, always
use the handles provided on the sides of the
oven.
Do not touch the appliance with bare feet or with
wet or damp hands and feet.
The appliance must be used by adults only for the
preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions provided in this booklet.
Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts of
the oven door when the appliance is in use; these
parts become extremely hot. Keep children well
away from it and do not touch the hot parts yourself.
Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact
with the hot parts of the oven.
The openings used for the ventilation and
dispersion of heat must never be covered.
Always grip the oven door handle in the centre:
the ends may be hot.
Always use oven gloves when placing cookware
in the oven or when removing it.
Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the
oven.
Do not place flammable materials in the oven: If
the appliance is switched on accidentally, the
materials could catch fire.
Always make sure the knobs are in the l/
¡
position when the appliance is not in use.
When unplugging the appliance, always pull the
plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the
cable.
Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from
the electricity mains.
If the appliance breaks down, under no
circumstances should you attempt to perform the
repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced individuals may cause injury or
further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a
Service Centre (see Assistance).
Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals
or by anyone who is not familiar with the product.
These individuals should, at the very least, be
supervised by someone who assumes responsibility
for their safety or receive preliminary instructions
relating to the operation of the appliance.
Do not let children play with the appliance.
Disposal
When disposing of packaging material: observe
local legislation so that the packaging may be
reused.
The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) states that household appliances should
not be disposed of using the normal solid urban
waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be
collected separately in order to optimise the cost
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the
machine, while preventing potential damage to
the atmosphere and to public health. The
crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to
remind the owner of their obligations regarding
separated waste collection. For further information
relating to the correct disposal of exhausted
household appliances, owners may contact the
relevant public service or their local dealer.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
By using the appliance in the hours between late
afternoon and early morning, you can help reduce
the work load placed on electrical companies.
Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to
ensure they are free of debris so that they stick
properly to the door and do not allow heat to
disperse.
! This product complies with the requirements of the
latest European Directive on the limitation of power
consumption of the standby mode.
If no operations are carried out for a period of 2
minutes, the appliance automatically switches to the
standby mode.
The standby mode is visualised by the high
luminosity "Watch Icon".
As soon as interaction with the machine resumes,
the system's operating mode is restored.
