Safety instructions
Electrical safety
•This appliance must be only con-
nected by a registered electrician.
•In the event of a fault or damage to
the appliance: Take the fuses out or
switch off.
•Repairs to the appliance must only
be carried out by qualified service
engineers. Considerable danger
may result from improper repairs. If
repairs become necessary, please
contact our Customer Services or
your dealer.
Child Safety
•Never leave children unsupervised
when the appliance is in use.
•The appliance is fitted with a child
safety device.
Safety during Operation
•People (including children) who, be-
cause of their physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or their inexperi-
ence or ignorance are not able to use
the device safely, should not use this
device without supervision or in-
struction by a responsible person.
•This appliance is intended to be
used for cooking, roasting and bak-
ing food in the home.
•Be careful if connecting electrical ap-
pliances to sockets near this
appliance. Electrical leads should
not be allowed to come near the
hotplates or to become caught un-
der the hot oven door.
•Warning: Danger of burns! When
in use, the oven interior surfaces be-
come very hot.
•Warning: When cooking with the
Vigorous Steam function, do not
under any circumstances open
the oven door. The escaping steam
can cause moisture damage to furni-
ture and cabinets. Avoid any direct
contact with escaping steam.
•If you use alcohol in your cooking, a
slightly flammable alcohol/air mixture
may ensue. In this case, be careful
when opening the door. Do not han-
dle any sources of heat, sparks or
naked flames when doing so.
Information on acrylamides
According to the latest scientific
knowledge, intensive browning of
food, especially in products con-
taining starch, can constitute a
health risk due to acrylamides.
Therefore we recommend cooking
at the lowest possible temperatures
and not browning foods too much.

6electrolux safety instructions
How to avoid damage to the
appliance
•Do not line the oven with aluminium
foil and do not place baking trays,
pots, etc. on the oven floor, as the
heat that builds up will damage the
oven enamel.
•Fruit juices dripping from the baking
tray will leave stains, which you will
not be able to remove. For very moist
cakes, use a deep tray.
•Do not put any strain on the oven
door when open.
•Never pour water directly into the
oven when it is hot. This could cause
damage to or discoloration of the
enamel.
•Rough handling, especially around
the edges of the front panel, can
cause the glass to break.
•Do not store any flammable materi-
als inside the oven. These could ig-
nite when the oven is switched on.
•Do not store any moist foods inside
the oven. This could damage the
oven enamel.
Note on enamel coating
Changes in the colour of the oven’s
enamel coating as a result of use do not
affect the appliance’s suitability for nor-
mal and correct use. They therefore do
not constitute a defect in the sense of
the warranty law.
