PREPARATIONS
Before using your appliance
Gashob
Burning in of the enamel
■ The burners cause the saucepan supports
to get extremely hot. In time the enamel on
the support points can burn in. This cannot
be prevented and is not covered by the
guarantee.
Burner caps
■
Check regularly whether the caps of the
burners are properly in position on the
burner depressions. Improper positioning
can make it difficult to light the burners,
give rise to an irregular gas flame, or
damage the burner caps.
Oven
Prepare for use
■ Remove the sticker from the glass panel in
the oven door.
■ Remove the protective foil from stainless
steel doors.
■ Remove all accessories from the oven and
clean them thoroughly using a dish-
washing detergent. Switch on the closed,
empty oven at the maximum temperature
for about thirty minutes. Let the oven cool
off and clean it with warm water.
Please note:
When the oven is heated to a high
temperature for the first time, you will smell a
“new appliance” odour. This is to be
expected.
Replacing the oven light bulb
■ Remove the plug out of the socket.
■ Unscrew the protective cover in an
anticlockwise direction.
■ Replace the bulb with a new one of the
same wattage (230 V -50 Hz - 300 °C).
Screw the protective cover back on, in a
clockwise direction.
