This appliance conforms to current
safety requirements. Incorrect use
can, however, lead to personal injury
and damage to the appliance.
To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the appliance, you
should read these instructions
carefully before using it for the first
time. They contain important notes
on the installation, safety, operation
and care of the appliance.
Keep this instructions in a safe place
and pass them on to any future user.
Technical safety
The appliance must be installed
and connected by a suitably
qualified and competent person in strict
accordance with local and national
safety regulations. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for damage
caused by incorrect installation or
connection.
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national safety regulations. It is most
important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested
regularly, and where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Never open the casing of the
appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components is highly dangerous to
the user and can cause operational
faults.
Correct usage
For safety reasons, this appliance
must be built in before it can be
used. This is necessary to ensure that
all electrical components are shielded.
This appliance is intended for
domestic use only and is not to be
used for commercial purposes.
This appliance must only be used
as described in these instructions.
Any other usage is at the owner's risk
and could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by incorrect or
improper use of the appliance.
Do not use the appliance to heat
up the room. Due to the high
temperatures radiated, objects near the
appliance could catch fire. The life of
the appliance could also be reduced.
Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children
Use the safety lock to prevent
children operating the appliance or
altering the settings.
The appliance is only intended for
use by adults who have read these
operating instructions. Keep children
well away. They will not understand the
potential danger of touching the
appliance. It is therefore important to
supervise children at all times.
Older children may use the
appliance only when its operation
has been clearly explained to them,
and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
This appliance is not a toy. To avoid
the risk of injury, do not allow
children to play with the appliance or its
controls. Supervise its use by the
elderly or infirm.
The appliance gets hot when in
use and remains hot for quite a
while after being switched off. To
safeguard against burning, keep
children well away from the appliance
until it has cooled down.
Do not store anything which might
arouse a child's interest in storage
areas above or next to the appliance.
Otherwise they could be tempted into
climbing onto the appliance with the
risk of burning themselves.
Warning: Take care in the area
around the hinges. Danger of
injury. Keep children well away.
Do not allow children to lean
against the open oven door, nor to
sit on it or swing on it.
Packaging (e.g. cling film,
polystyrene) and plastic wrappings
must be kept out of the reach of babies
and young children. Danger of
suffocation. Dispose of all packaging
safely as soon as possible.
Warning and Safety instructions

Protecting the appliance from
damage
Do not use the appliance to heat
up food in sealed jars and tins.
Pressure will build up inside them and
they can explode causing damage to
the appliance, as well as the risk of
injury and scalding.
Do not store cooked food in the
oven. The moisture in the food can
lead to corrosion in the appliance.
Do not store anything combustible
in the oven. This could be a fire
hazard if the appliance is switched on
by mistake.
The surfaces of the oven cavity
and some accessories have been
treated with PERFECTCLEAN enamel. To
maintain the anti-stick qualities of these
surfaces it is important to clean them
regularly and carefully following the
instructions given in "Cleaning and
Care".
Never line the floor of the oven with
aluminium foil. Never place a dish,
tin, baking tray or similar object on the
oven floor. This would block the heat
and could damage the PerfectClean
enamelling.
Protective aluminium foil panels are
available in retail outlets which are
supposed to protect the oven cavity
from soiling and reduce the need for
cleaning. If used, cooking and baking
times will increase considerably. They
can also cause damage to the
appliances, e.g. by blocking the heat.
When heating up or cooking larger
items of deep frozen food such as
pizza, place them on baking parchment
on the rack. Do not use the baking tray,
or grill pan as these can distort with the
temperature fluctuations.
Splashes of fruit juice can leave
marks which cannot be removed
afterwards.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean this appliance. The steam
could reach electrical components and
cause a short circuit. Pressurised
steam could also cause permanent
damage to the surface and to other
components, for which the
manufacturer cannot accept liability.
Do not place heavy objects on the
open door. The oven door can
support a maximum load of 10 kg.
