BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCES
� To make the most of your new appliances read the users instructions carefully and keep them on hand for consultation in the future. Remove the cardboard protections and the protective plastic film. Remove the accessories from the oven and heat it at 200° C for about an hour to eliminate the smell of protective grease and insulating materials. Keep the window open during this procedure. N.B.: The cooling fan runs continuously at different speeds according to the temperature value of the components when the cooktop or the oven are in use. Full speed: when the components are hot. Reduced speed (on/off mode): when the components are not hot. The on/off mode must be considered the normal mode when the fan is at reduced speed. The fan may continue to run for the time necessary to ensure sufficient cooling of the components and adjacent kitchen units after the appliances have been switched off.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
� � � � Before any maintenance on the appliances disconnect them from the power supply. Keep children away from the appliances when they are in use. The oven must be repaired or adjusted only by a qualified technician. Make sure that the electrical wires of other electrical appliances near the oven do not come into contact with hot parts and do not become entrapped in the oven door. During the cooking process, water evaporates from food. All ovens require this steam and other fumes to be vented from the oven cavity. For reasons of safety and aesthetics, we have determined that an opening at the bottom of the door is the optimum solution. Consequently, vapour may be seen to be coming from this area on occasions (see picture). This is a normal occurrence and the bottom trim can be cleaned after removal of the door as described on page 23. � Heavy weights must not be placed on the open door as this may result in damage to the cavity and hinges. Max weight: 7 kg (15 lbs).

� Never stand or sit on the oven open door. Never hang any weight at the handle of the oven door when open. Use oven gloves to remove baking trays and accessories when the oven is hot. Do not cover the bottom of the oven with aluminium foil. Do not place inflammable material in the oven - risk of fire if the oven is inadvertently switched on. 19
