Important safety warnings
1 This owner's manual is for a class 1 appliance (installed
independently) or class 2 - sub-class 1 appliances
(installed between two cabinets).
2 Before using the appliance, read the instructions in this
owner’s manual carefully since you should find all the
instruction you require to ensure safe installation, use
and maintenance.
Always keep this owner’s manual close to hand since
you may need to refer to it in the future.
3 When you have removed the packing, check that the
appliance is not damaged. If you have any doubts, do not
use the appliance, contact your nearest Ariston Service
Centre. Never leave the packing components (plastic bags,
foamed polystyrene, nails, etc.) within the reach of children
since they are a source of potential danger.
4 The appliance must be installed only by a qualified person in
compliance with the instructions provided. The manufacturer
declines all responsibility for improper installation which may
harm persons and animals and damage property.
5 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
if the cooker is correctly and efficiently earthed, in compliance
with current regulations on electrical safety. Always ensure
that the earthing is efficient; if you have any doubts call in a
qualified electrician to check the system. The manufacturer
declines all responsibility for damage resulting from a system
which has not been earthed.
6 Before connecting the appliance to the mains, check that the
specifications indicated on the rating plate correspond to those
of the electrical mains system of your home.
7 The cooker must be connected to the mains electrical supply
via a earthed 13 or 15 amp. socket outlet, meeting the
electrical current requirements detailed under “electrical
Connection” in the installation section later in this book.
8 The openings and slots used for ventilation and dispersion
of heat on the rear and below the control panel must never
be covered.
9 This appliance must be used for the purpose for which it was
expressly designed. Any other use (e.g. heating rooms) is
considered to be improper and consequently dangerous. The
manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage resulting
from improper and irresponsible use.
10 A number of fundamental rules must be followed when using
electrical appliances. The following are of particular
importance:
do not touch the appliance when your hands or feet are
wet
do not use the appliance barefooted
never allow the Mains Cable to be stretched, pulled or
damaged if the Cooker is moved for cleaning etc. Do not
use the cooker if the Mains Cable is damaged, consult a
qualified electrician.
do not allow the cooker to be used unsupervised by
children or persons unfamiliar with it.
11 Always switch off the electrical supply to the cooker and allow
it to cool down before carrying out any cleaning operations
etc.
12 In the case of faults and/or faulty operation, switch off the
electricity supply to the cooker and do not tamper with it. For
repairs call only an authorised after-sales servicing centre
and request the use of original spare parts only. Failure to
comply with the above may compromise the safety of the
appliance.
13 Remember if you are discarding any domestic appliance
with which children etc. may play, make it safe by removing
the Mains Cable from it, after first disconnecting the electricity
supply. Remove glass parts where possible, and consider
sharp edges etc. which may now be exposed.
14 Oven gloves or similar protection should be used when
moving containers in or out of hot ovens and care should be
be taken to avoid contact with hot surfaces by exposed skin
on wrists or arms.
15 One of the commonest types of accident involving cooking
appliances is burns to babies and young children. These
can occur by:
a) Touching hot parts
b) Being splashed with hot liquids
c) By pulling projecting pan handles and tipping hot liquids
over themselves
16 Please remember that a small child’s skin is far more sensitive
and therefore easily burnt. You are, therefore, strongly advised
to keep babies and young children well clear of this appliance
during use and whilst it is cooling down after use.
17 Unstable or out of shape pans should not be used on the
hob in case they cause spillage of hot liquids by tipping over.
18 Pans must only be placed in the centre of the burners. Placing
pans off centre may cause cooking irregularites.
19 Special care should be taken when using chip pans etc. in
order to avoid splashing or spillage of hot oil. They should not
be used unattended since overheated oil may boil over and
could also ignite.
20 Parts of this appliance, cooking surfaces, retain heat for
considerable periods after switching off. Care should,
therefore, be taken when touching these areas before they
have completely cooled down.
21 Remember to keep children away from the appliance
when you use the grill or oven, since these parts become
very hot.
22 Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol or gasoline,
etc. near the appliance when it is in use.
23 Wear oven gloves when placing coockware in the oven or
removing it.
24 Never use the oven as place to store flammable material.
25 When using small electric appliances near the hob, keep the
supply cord away from the hot parts.
26 Make sure the knobs are in the “•”/”O” position when the
appliance is not in use.
27 Warning: open the door with care since if you are not careful
you may hurt yourself in the hinge area.
28 Gas units need a regular air replacement for a correct
functioning. Make sure that the requirements requested
in the “Positioning” paragraph are all observed in the
owner’s manual.
To maintain the EFFICIENCY and SAFETY of this appliance, we recommend:
use only the MANUFACTURER Service
use only ORIGINAL Spare Parts
