following warnings are provided for safety reasons and
must be read carefully.
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside
the home and is not intended for commercial or
industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• When moving or positioning the appliance, always use
the handles provided on the sides of the oven.
• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet or
damp hands and feet.
• The appliance must be used by adults only for the
preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions outlined in this booklet. Any other use
of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use and is dangerous. The
manufacturer may not be held liable for any
damage resulting from improper, incorrect and
unreasonable use of the appliance.
• Do not touch the heating elements or certain parts
of the oven door when the appliance is in use; these
parts become extremely hot. Keep children well
away from the appliance.
• Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact with the
hot parts of the oven.
• The openings used for ventilation and heat dispersal
must never be covered.
• Always grip the oven door handle in the centre: the
ends may be hot.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in the
oven or when removing it.
• Do not use aluminium foil to line the bottom of the oven.
• Do not place flammable materials in the oven: If the
appliance is switched on accidentally, the materials
could catch fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the " "/" "
position when the appliance is not in use.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the plug
from the mains socket; do not pull on the cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from the
electricity mains.
• If the appliance breaks down, under no circumstances
should you attempt to perform the repairs yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced individuals may
cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance.

• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals or by
anyone who is not familiar with the product. These
individuals should, at the very least, be supervised by
someone who assumes responsibility for their safety or
receive preliminary instructions relating to the operation
of the appliance.
• Do not let children play with the appliance.
Disposal
• When disposing of packaging material: observe local
legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that
household appliances should not be disposed of using
the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted
appliances should be collected separately in order to
optimise the cost of re-using and recycling the
materials inside the machine, while preventing potential
damage to the atmosphere and to public health. The
crossed-out dustbin is marked on all products to
remind the owner of their obligations regarding
separated waste collection. For further information
relating to the correct disposal of exhausted household
appliances, owners may contact the relevant public
service or their local dealer.
Respecting and conserving the environment
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the electricity
supply network companies by using the oven in the
hours between late afternoon and the early hours of the
morning. The cooking mode programming options, the
"delayed cooking" mode (see Cooking modes) and
"delayed automatic cleaning" mode (see Care and
Maintenance) in particular, enable the user to organise
their time efficiently.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the FAN
GRILLING mode as this will achieve improved results
while saving energy (approximately 10%).
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to
ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere
properly to the door, thus avoiding the dispersal of
heat.
! This product complies with the requirements of the latest
European Directive on the limitation of power consumption
of the standby mode.
If no operations are carried out for a period of 2 minutes,
the appliance automatically switches to the standby
mode.
The standby mode is visualised by the dimmed watch
icon.
As soon as interaction with the machine resumes, the
system's operating mode is restored.
