• Do not allow children to touch:
- the oven and its controls, especially when in
operation and immediately afterwards to
avoid injury;
- packaging (bags, polystyrene, metal parts,
etc.);
- an oven to be scrapped.
• Make sure that the electrical cables of other
appliances used near the oven do not touch hot
parts and are not trapped in the oven door.
• Some oven models are equipped with an air
cooling system to prevent the front of the oven
and cabinet cavity from reaching excessively high
temperatures.
Attention: Steam and smoke are vented through
an opening located between the control panel and
the oven door. Do not obstruct the vent opening.
• Do not place inflammable material in the oven or
nearby: a fire may break out if the oven is
inadvertently switched on.
• Use oven gloves to remove pans and accessories,
when the oven is hot.
• If alcoholic beverages are added when roasting or
cooking cakes and sweets (e.g. rum, cognac,
wine, etc.) remember that alcohol evaporates at
high temperatures. It may happen that vapours
released by the alcohol can catch fire when they
are in contact with the electric heating element.
• Do not heat or cook sealed jars or containers in
the oven. The pressure that develops inside the
packaging might cause it to explode, damaging
the oven.
• Do not use containers made of synthetic material
for cooking (except for packages specifically
designed for this purpose; see the manufacturer's
instructions). They could melt at high
temperatures.
• Always keep a watch on pans when cooking with
oil and grease. Oil and fat can overheat and catch
fire!
BEFORE USING THE OVEN
• Remove the accessories from the oven and heat
it 200°C for about an hour to eliminate the smell
of the protective grease and insulating materials.
Keep the window open during this operation.
• Before use, remove:
- stickers on the front and oven door, except
for the rating plate;
- cardboard protection and protective plastic
film from the front panel controls and other
parts of the oven;
- any sticky labels from the accessories
(for example, under the drip tray).
