damage. Immediately unplug the appliance, if any severe pro-
blem occurs during operation (e.g. overheating, fire). If food in the
oven compartment starts smoking or catches fire, DO NOT OPEN
THE OVEN DOOR to prevent oxygen from getting into the oven,
making things worse. Leave the appliance cool down under close
supervision.
• Always unplug the appliance from the wall outlet and let the appliance
cool down before cleaning or moving the appliance and before remo-
ving the crumb tray. Always clean the appliance thoroughly after each
use to avoid food baking on the surfaces and possibly catching fire.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, metal scouring pads or any hard and
sharp objects (i.e. scraper) for cleaning to avoid damage. Do not
place the appliance or any part of it in an automatic dishwasher.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS FOR ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
Ensure that the voltage rating of your mains power supply corresponds
to the voltage requirements of the appliance (220 - 240 V, 50 - 60 Hz,
AC, rated for 16 A). Always connect the appliance directly to a separa-
tely protected mains power supply wall socket with protective conductor
(earth/ground) connected properly. The installation of a residual current
safety switch with a maximum rated residual operating current of 30 mA
in the supplying electrical circuit is recommended. If in doubt, contact
your electrician for further information.
• In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are
subject to incompatible norms. Therefore it is possible that power
supplies in foreign countries do not meet the requirements for safe
operation of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance
abroad, ensure that safe operation is possible. The appliance is not
intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate
remote-control system. Do not use any type of extension cord or multi-
socket outlet. Before operation completely unwind the power cord.
The power cord may never be knotted, twisted or squeezed. Do not
pull or strain the power cord. Do not let the plug or power cord hang
over the edge of the table or counter. Take care that no one will pull
the appliance by the power cord, especially when young children
