long as it is hot.
Remove any packaging material from inside the oven.
Packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) must be stored out of
reach of children as they are potentially hazardous.
The package is recyclable and is marked with the recycling symbol .
Place the appliance on a fully horizontal surface in order to achieve
easy and correct cooking. The table top should be heat-proof and the
furniture in contact with the oven must be heat-resistant (80°C).
Do not obstruct any ventilation grid.
For sufficient ventilation there must be a space of at least 750 mm
above the oven and 100 mm on each side.
For the connection of the oven you will need a 230 V supply socket
protected with a 16A fuse, and provided with a suitable ground contact.
In case you should need an extension cable it must be 3 x 2,5 mm²
at least and the continuity of its ground connector must be
checked. If the indication lamps show a slight twinkling light when
the switches are in position 0 then inverse the plug in the socket.
Dont cut the plug from the supply cord. this cooker was not designed
for a permanent connection with the mains supply. For safety
reasons, we recommend you remove the plug from the wall socket if
the appliance remains unused for a long time (e.g.: holidays).
The appliance is built with reusable materials. When scrapping
follow the local environmental-protecting regulations. Render the
oven inoperative. Cut the power cable off.
Prior to connecting
, check that the voltage on the rating plate corresponds to the voltage in your home.
