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
• These instructions are only valid for the
countries whose symbols appear in the manual
and on the serial number plate.
• 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.
• 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.
• The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1 (insulated) or
class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed between 2 cupboards)
appliance.
• When the appliance is in use, the heating
elements and some parts of the oven door
become extremely hot. Make sure you don't
touch them and keep children well away.
• 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.
• Do not place unstable or misshapen pans on the electric
hotplates; this will help to avoid spills. Position them on the
hob with the handles turned towards the centre of the
appliance.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the oven or
when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...) near the
appliance while it is in use.
• Do not place flammable material in the lower storage
compartment or in the oven itself. If the appliance is switched
on accidentally, it could catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the ‘0’ 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 repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried
out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or further
malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact Assistance.
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The internal surfaces of the compartment (where present) may
become hot.
• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical shocks, but
it may crack (or even break) if hit with a sharp object such as
a tool. If this happens, disconnect the appliance from the
electricity mains immediately and contact a Service Centre.
• If the surface of the hob is cracked, switch off the appliance
to prevent electric shocks from occurring.
• Remember that the temperature of the cooking zones remains
relatively high for at least thirty minutes after they have been
switched off.
• Keep any object that could melt away from the hob, for
example plastic and aluminium objects, or products with a high
sugar content. Keep plastic or aluminium objects away from
the hob: if you forget them on surfaces that are still hot, they
may cause serious damage to the hob.
• 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.
• If the cooker is placed on a pedestal, take the
necessary precautions to prevent the same from sliding
off the pedestal itself.
• 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.
Exhausted appliances may be collected by the public waste
collection service, taken to suitable collection areas in the
area or, if permitted by current national legislation, they may
be returned to the dealers as part of an exchange deal for a
new equivalent product.
All major manufacturers of household appliances participate in
the creation and organisation of systems for the collection
and disposal of old and disused appliances.
Respecting and conserving the
environment
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity supply
network companies by using the oven in the hours between
late afternoon and the early hours of the morning.
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to ensure
they are free of debris so that they adhere properly to the
door, thus avoiding heat dispersion.
