IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances especially when children are present, basic safety
precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or
injury to persons including the following:
1. Please read instructions carefully.
2. Avoid touching hot surfaces. Use the handle or knobs.
3. Supervise children closely when using any appliance.
4. To prevent electric shock, do not submerge the cord, plug, or any part of the oven
in water or other liquids.
5. Ensure the cord does not hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot
surfaces.
6. Do not use the appliance if the cord or plug is damaged or if the appliance
malfunctions. Instead, take it to the nearest Authorised Service Center for
examination, repair, or adjustment. Alternatively contact our Customer Services
Team.
7. Using accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may be
dangerous.
8. Do not place the oven on or near a hot gas or electric burner, heated oven, or
microwave oven.
9. Maintain at least 12 cm of space on all sides of the oven during operation to allow
for adequate air circulation.
10. Unplug the oven when not in use or before cleaning. Allow it to cool down before
handling parts or cleaning.
11. Do not cover any part of the oven with metal foil as it may cause overheating.
12. Exercise extreme caution when removing the tray or disposing of hot grease or
liquids.
13. Avoid cleaning the oven with metal scouring pads as they may touch electrical parts
and pose an electric shock risk.
14. A fire may occur if the oven is covered or placed near flammable materials such as
curtains, draperies, or walls while in use. Do not store items on the oven during
operation.
15. Be cautious when using containers made of materials other than metal or glass.
16. Do not place cardboard, plastic, paper, or similar materials in the oven.
17. Store only manufacturer-recommended accessories in the oven when not in use.
18. To disconnect, turn off all controls and then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
Always hold the plug, never the cord.
19. Always wear insulated oven mitts when inserting or removing items from the hot
oven.
20. The oven has a tempered, safety glass door that is stronger and more resistant to
breakage than ordinary glass. Avoid scratching the door surface or nicking the
edges. If the door glass is scratched or nicked, contact the nearest Authorised
Service Center for examination and repair.

for approximately 15 minutes to eliminate any packing oil that may remain after
shipping.
5. Initial start-up operation may result in minimal smell and smoke (around 15
minutes). This is normal and harmless. It is due to burning of the protective
substance applied to the heating elements in the factory.
Before using your electrical oven for the first time, be sure to:
Before inital use:
1. Confirm the marked power consumption is in conformity with your household
electric power.
2. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter to avoid that children may
stumble over.

4. Oven should be sent to the manufacturer, authorised service agent or a similarly
qualified person to repair in order to avoid a hazard.

entangled in or tripping over a long cord. An extension cord may be used if you are
careful in its use:
1. The electric rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical
rating of the appliance.
2. An extension cord with the power cord must be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or table top where they can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.
