Instruction for Use

6
Precautions and general recommendations
• Before any maintenance
on the oven disconnect it
from the mains.
• Keep children away from
the oven when it is in use
and when its has just
been switched off.
• The oven must be
repaired or adjusted only
by a qualified technician.
• Make sure that the
electrical wires of other
electrical appliances near
the oven do not come
into contact with hot
parts and do not become
entrapped in the oven
door.
• Use oven gloves to
remove baking trays and
accessories when the
oven is hot.
• Do not cover the bottom
of the oven with
aluminium foil.
• Do not place inflammable
material in the oven - risk
of fire if the oven is
inadvertently switched on.
• During the cooking
process, water evaporates
from food. All ovens
require this steam and
other fumes to be vented
from the oven cavity. For
reasons of safety and
aesthetics, we have
determined that an
opening at the bottom of
the door is the optimum
solution.
Consequently, vapour may
be seen to be coming from
this area on occasions (see
picture).
This is a normal occurrence
and the bottom trim can
be cleaned after removal
of the oven door as
described later in this
chapter “Cleaning the
oven and its accessories”.
Bear in mind there may
be residual steam inside
the oven. Accordingly,
great care should be
taken when opening
the oven door.
• Heavy weights must not be
placed on the open door as
this may result in damage
to the cavity and hinges.
Max weight: 7 kg (15lbs).
• Never stand or sit on the
oven open door. Never
hang any weight at the
handle of the oven door
when open.
