First use
Unpack the appliance carefully and check, if there are any parts damaged or missing.
CAUTION: It is important to carefully remove all packing and shipping materials as well
as any price-tags, but do not remove any warning or model labels on the appliance. Ensure
that there are no foreign objects (i.e. packing materials) inside the oven before operating
the appliance. Wash all parts as instructed in the ´Care and Cleaning` section and insert
the crumb tray.
The heating elements were oiled during manufacture and these will therefore smoke slightly
when the oven is first used. This is entirely safe and will stop after a few minutes. However,
so that the food does not taste of this smoke, we recommend that you take the following
action before using the appliance for the first time.
If the burnt smell occurs again on later use, clean the oven (see: ‘Care and Cleaning’). If
the burnt smell persists stubbornly even after thoroughly cleaning the appliance, return the
appliancetoanauthorisedservicecentreforexaminationandrepair.
