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.
All accessible parts are hot when the appliance is in operation, take care to not touch these elements.
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.
The parts of this appliance that may come into contact with foodstuffs
comply with the provisions of EEC Directive 89/109.
By placing the mark on this product, we are confirming
compliance to all relevant European safety, health and environmental
requirements which are applicable in legislation for this product.
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.
1.1 DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE
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.
•Do not line the oven walls with aluminium foil or single-use
protection available from stores. Aluminium foil or any other
protection, in direct contact with the hot enamel, risks melting and
deteriorating the enamel of the insides.
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, using the four fixing holes in the frame.
(Fig.on last page).
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.
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.
1.6 CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
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. Ensure that the glues of units made of veneered
wood can withstand temperatures of at least 120 °C. 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.

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.

injury to persons, animals or belongings caused by failure to
properly earth the oven.
WARNING: the voltage and the supply frequency are showed on
the rating plate (fig. on last page).
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
