Caution
In order to guarantee that your appliance operates in a safe and efficient manner:
• seek help only from authorised technical assistance centres;
• always insist on the use of original spare parts.
1 This appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home.
2 These instructions are only valid for the countries whose
symbols appear in the manual and on the serial number plate
located on the appliance.
3 This is a class 1 (insulated) or class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed
between 2 cabinets) appliance.
4 Before using the appliance, please read this instruction book-
let carefully as it contains important information regarding the
safe installation, use and maintenance of the cooker. Keep
this booklet in a safe place so that, if necessary, it may be
consulted at a later date.
5 After the packaging has been removed, ensure that the ap-
pliance is intact and not damaged in any way. If there is any
doubt, contact a professionally qualified technician and do not
use the appliance. All packaging (plastic bags, polystyrene
foam, staples, etc.) should be kept out of reach of children
as it is potentially dangerous.
6 The appliance must be installed by a qualified person in
compliance with the instructions provided. The manufacturer
shall not be held responsible for any harm caused to persons
or animals or for any damage to personal property resulting
from incorrect installation.
7 The electrical safety of this appliance is only guaranteed
when it has been correctly connected to an efficient earthed
electricity supply in compliance with current electrical safety
regulations. This is a fundamental safety requirement that
must be checked and, if there is any doubt, you should ask
a professionally qualified technician to carry out a thorough
check of the supply system. The manufacturer may not be
held responsible for any damage caused by a mains supply
that has not been earthed correctly.
8 Before connecting the appliance, make sure its rating (which
can be found on the appliance itself and/or on the packaging)
corresponds to the power supply.
9 Make sure that the mains supply and the electrical sockets
can withstand the maximum power of the appliance, which
is indicated on the serial number plate. If there is any doubt,
contact a professionally qualified technician.
10 The appliance must be connected to the mains by means
of an omnipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of 3
mm.
11 If the socket is incompatible with the plug, ask a professio-
nally qualified technician to replace it with a suitable one.
The technician should also make sure that the power cables
attached to the socket can withstand the maximum power of
the appliance. In general, it is not advisable to use adaptors,
multiple sockets and/or extension cords. If this cannot be avoi-
ded, only use single or multiple adaptors and extension cords
that comply with current safety regulations. Never exceed the
maximum current capacity indicated on the single adaptor
or extension cord, or the maximum power level indicated on
the multiple adaptor.
12 Do not leave the appliance plugged in if it is not in use. Shut
off the main switch for the appliance when it is not being used.
13 The openings used for ventilation and dispersion of heat must
never be covered.
14 Do not attempt to replace the power supply cable yourself. If
the cable is damaged or needs replacing, contact a technical
assistance centre that has been authorised by the manufac-
turer.
15 This appliance should only be used for the purpose for
which it was designed. Any other purpose (for example,
heating the room) constitutes improper use of the oven
and is dangerous. The manufacturer may not be held re-
sponsible for any damage caused as a result of improper,
incorrect and unreasonable use of the appliance.
16 All users of electrical appliances should observe several basic
rules. These include:
• Do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or
feet.
• Do not use the appliance when barefoot.
• Do not use extension cords. If this cannot be avoided, be
especially careful.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
• Do not leave the appliance exposed to atmospheric
agents (rain, sunlight, etc.)
• Do not allow children or disabled individuals to operate
the appliance without supervision.
17 Always disconnect the appliance from the mains supply
(either by unplugging it or by shutting off the switch) before
cleaning it or carrying out any maintenance work.
18 Before disposing of the appliance, make it unusable by
unplugging it and cutting off the power supply cable. It is also
advisable to remove any potentially hazardous parts, espe-
cially with regard to children who may use the old appliance
as a toy.
19 Do not use unstable or misshapen pans on the electric co-
oking zones; this will help to avoid accidental spills. Make
sure pan handles are turned towards the centre of the hob
in order to avoid accidental burns.
20 Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...) near the
appliance while it is in use.
21 If you are using small domestic appliances near the hob, en-
sure that their power supply cables do not come into contact
with the hot parts of the surface.
22 Always make sure that the knobs are in the “¡” position when
the appliance is not in use.
23 The heating elements and several internal and external
parts of the oven become extremely hot when the
appliance is in use. Keep children well away from it
and do not touch the hot parts yourself.
24 If the cooker is placed on a pedestal, take all necessary
precautions to ensure that the appliance does not slide off
this pedestal.
25 If the surface of the glass cracks, unplug the appliance imme-
diately. For any repairs, contact only an authorised after-sales
service centre and demand original spare parts. Failure to
comply with the above may compromise the safety appliace.
26 The glass ceramic hob is resistent to thermal and mechanical
shocks. However, it may break due to a shock caused by a
sharp object, such as tool for example. In this case, unplug
the appliance immediately and contact an authorised after-
sales service centre to have it repaired.
27 Rememer that the heating area stays hot for at least half an
hour after being turned off; please refrain from placing any
cookware or other items on the cooking zone while still hot
28 The internal surfaces of the compartment (where present)
may become hot.
29. Warning: never place hot containers or items and
flammable materials inside the dishwarmer drawer.
30. Do not use rough abrasive material or metal scrapers
to clean the glass surfaces of the appliance
