First use
The first time you use your appliance, we recommend that you set the thermostat to the highest setting (250°C) and
leave the oven on for about half an hour with nothing in it.
Then let the room air. The odour that is often detected during this initial use is due to the evaporation of substances
used to protect the oven during storage and until it is installed.
Safety is a good habit to get into

with the appliance to use it, without supervision.

off the main switch before cleaning or performing any

service centre and demand the use of original spare parts
only. Failure to comply with the above may compromise
the safety of the appliance.

the power mains when you decide not to use the appliance
