IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
After having unpacked the appliance, check to ensure that it is not damaged and that
the oven door closes correctly. In case of doubt, do not use it and consult your supplier
or a professionally qualified technician.
Packing elements (i.e. plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, packing straps, etc.) should
not be left around within easy reach of children, as these may cause serious injuries.
● Do not attempt to modify the technical characteristics of the appliance as this may
cause danger to users.
● Do not carry out cleaning or maintenance operations on the appliance without having
previously disconnected it from the electric power supply.
● If you should decide not to use this appliance any longer (or decide to substitute an
older model), before disposing of it, it is recommended that it be made inoperative in
an appropriate manner in accordance to health and environmental protection regula-
tions, ensuring in particular that all potentially hazardous parts be made harmless,
especially in relation to children who could play with unused appliances.
● After use, ensure that the knobs are in off position.
● Do not allow children or other unqualified people to use the appliance without your
supervision.
● During and after use of the cooker, certain parts will become very hot. Do not touch
hot parts.
● Keep children away from the cooker when it is in use.
● Some appliances are supplied with a protective film on steel and aluminium parts.
This film must be removed before using the appliance.
● Fire risk! Do not store flammable material in the oven or in the storage compartment.
● Make sure that electrical cables connecting other appliances in the proximity of the
cooker cannot come into contact with the hob or become entrapped in the oven
door.
● Do not line the oven walls with aluminium foil. Do not place baking trays or the drip
tray on the base of the oven chamber.
● The manufacturer declines all liability for injury to persons or damage to property
caused by incorrect or improper use of the appliance.
