1. GENERAL WARNINGS
Thank you for choosing one of our products. To get the most out of your oven we recommend that you:
• Read the notes in this manual carefully: they contain important instructions on how to install, use and service this oven safely.
• Keep this booklet in a safe place for easy, future reference.
When the oven is first switched on it may give out acrid smelling fumes. This is because the bonding agent for insulating panels around the oven has
been heated up for the first time. This is a completely normal, if it does occur you merely have to wait for the fumes to clear before putting the food into
the oven. An oven by its very nature becomes very hot. Especially the glass of the oven door.
1.1 DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE
The parts of this appliance that may come into contact with foodstuffs
comply with the provisions of EEC Directive 89/109.
Appliance complies with European Directives 73/23/EEC and
89/336/EEC, replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC, and
subsequent amendments.
When you have unpacked the oven, make sure that it has not
been damaged in any way. If you have any doubts at all, do not use it:
contact a professionally qualified person. Keep packing materials
such as plastic bags, polystyrene, or nails out of the reach of children
because they are dangerous for children.
1.2 SAFETY HINTS
•The oven must be used only for the purpose for which it was
designed: it must only be used for cooking food. Any other use, e.g. as
a form of heating, is an improper use of the oven and is therefore
dangerous.
•The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any damage
caused by improper, incorrect or unreasonable use. When using any
electrical appliance you must follow a few basic rules.
– Do not pull on the power cable to remove the plug from the socket.
– Do not touch the oven with wet or damp hands or feet.
– Do not use the oven unless you are wearing something on your feet.
– It is not generally a good idea to use adapters, multiple sockets for
several plugs and cable extensions.
– If the oven breaks down or develops a fault switch it off at the mains
and do not touch it.
•If the cable is at all damaged it must be replaced promptly.
When replacing the cable, follow these instructions. Remove the
power cable and replace it with one of the H05RRF, H05VV-F,
H05V2V2-F type. The cable must be able to bear the electrical current
required by the oven. Cable replacement must be carried out by
properly qualified technicians. The earthing cable (yellow-green) must
be 10 mm longer than the power cable.
Use only an approved service centre for repairs and ensure that only
original parts are used. If the above instructions are not adhered to the
manufacturers cannot guarantee the safety of the oven.
1.3 INSTALLATION
Installation is the customer's responsibility. The manufacturers
have no obligation to carry this out. If the assistance of the
manufacturer is required to rectify faults arising from incorrect
installation, this assistance is not covered by the guarantee.
The installation instructions for professionally qualified personal
must be followed. Incorrect installation may cause harm or injury
to people, animals or belongings. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for such harm or injury.
1.4 FITTING THE OVEN INTO THE KITCHEN UNIT
Fit the oven into the space provided in the kitchen unit; it may be
fitted underneath a work top or into an upright cupboard. Fix the
oven in position by screwing into place.(Figure 11).
To locate the fixing holes, open the oven door and look inside.To
allow adequate ventilation, the measurements and distances
indicated in the diagram on last page must be adhered to when
fixing the oven.
Note: For ovens that are combined with a hob unit the instructions
contained in the manual for the hob unit must be followed.
1.5 IMPORTANT
If the oven is to work properly, the kitchen housing must be
suitable. The panels of the kitchen unit that are next to the oven
must be made of a heat resistant material. Plastics or glues that
cannot withstand such temperatures will melt and deform the unit.
Once the oven has been lodged inside the unit, the electrical parts
must be completely insulated. This is a legal safety requirement.
All guards must be firmly fixed into place so that it is impossible to
remove them without using special tools.
Remove the back of the kitchen unit to ensure an adequate
current of air circulates around the oven. The hob must have
a rear gap of at least 45 mm.
1.6 CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Plug into the power supply. Ensure first that there is a third contact
that acts as earthing for the oven. The oven must be properly
earthed.
If the model of oven is not fitted with a plug, fit a standard plug to
the power cable. It must be able to bear the power supply indicated
on the specifications plate. The earthing cable is yellowgreen. The
plug must be fitted by a properly qualified person. If the socket and
the plug are incompatible the socket must be changed by a
properly qualified person.A properly qualified person must also
ensure that the power cables can carry the current required to
operate the oven.
An ON/OFF switch may also be connected to the power supply.
The connections must take account of the current supplied and
must comply with current legal requirements. The yellow-green
earthing cable must not be governed by the ON/OFF switch. The
socket or the ON/OFF switch used for connecting to the power
supply must be easily accessible when the oven has been
installed.
Important: During installation, position the power cable in such a
way that it will not be subjected to temperatures of above 50°C at
any point.
The oven complies with safety standards set by the regulatory
bodies. The oven is safe to use only if it has been adequately
earthed in compliance with current legal requirements on wiring
safety. You must ensure that the oven has been adequately
earthed.
The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any harm
or injury to persons, animals or belongings caused by failure
to properly earth the oven.
The cabling and wiring system must be able to bear the maximum
electric power required by the oven. This is indicated on the
specifications plate. If you are in any doubt at all, use the services
of a professionally qualified person.
