cleaning to avoid hazard of over-heating and electric shock and to avoid
damage to the heating elements. Do not scratch on the heating elements.
• Always unplug the appliance from the power 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.
• The oven compartment and the backing tray are equipped with a
non-stick coating. Do not use abrasive cleaners, metal scouring pads
or any hard and sharp objects (i.e. scraper, metal cleaning pads) for
cleaning to avoid damage to the surfaces. Do not place the appli-
ance 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, at
least 16 A). Always connect the appliance directly to a separately pro-
tected 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 elec-
trician for further information.
• In various foreign countries, the specifications for power supplies are
subject to incompatible norms. Therefore it is possible that power sup-
plies in foreign countries do not meet the requirements for safe opera-
tion of the appliance. Thus, before operating the appliance abroad,
ensure that safe operation is possible.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated via 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 children are near. Always grasp
the plug to disconnect the appliance from the power outlet. Do not
touch the plug or appliance with wet hands, while the appliance is
connected to the power supply.
• Keep the power cord away from hot surfaces (e.g. exterior of the
appliance) or sharp edges. Do not place the appliance on a power
cord. If the power cord warms up during operation or is likely to be
damaged, it must be replaced by an authorised service centre. Do
not attempt to repair the power cord!
• Do not use the appliance in moist or wet areas. Do not place or
immerse the appliance or power cord in water or any other liquid.
Do not pour or spill any liquids on or in the oven or power cord to
avoid risk of fire and electric shock. When liquids are spilled on the
appliance, immediately unplug the appliance, dry the appliance, and
then leave it dry naturally for at least 1 day with the oven door open.
HOT SURFACES – RISK OF BURNS
This appliance is intended for cooking food. The heating elements within the
oven compartment are heated electrically and may reach very high tempera-
tures (red heat) during operation. Do NOT touch the heating elements with
your skin or any objects during operation and some time thereafter.
• During operation do not place any objects or tissue on or under the
appliance, to avoid risk of overheating. Before operation, always
ensure that there are no foreign objects (e.g. unsuited paper, pla-
stic containers, kitchen foil) in the oven compartment and remove all
accessories not in use.
• Do not insert oversized food or food wrapped in unsuited foil or
packed in unsuited containers, to avoid risk of intoxication, overhea-
ting, fire, electric shock, and damage. Do not operate the appliance
without the crumb tray inserted properly.
• Even the exterior of the oven and the oven door may become hot
during operation. For operation, do not place the appliance near
heat-sensitive objects. Metal surfaces could heat up, when the oven is
operated near or on them. Only touch the appliance at the operating
elements, while the appliance is in use or still hot.
