or as a combination appliance with
electric hotplate for connection to 1, 2 or
3 phases (without groups) of a 230V

Operation
• This oven is intended for the preparation of
food; never use it for other purposes.
• Beware hot air escaping from the
oven if the oven door is opened during

minium foil whilst cooking food in the oven,
never let it come into direct contact with
the bottom of the oven.

never spray anything onto the grease filter
(if fitted), the heating elements and the
thermostat sensor.
• It is dangerous to make modifications of
any type to this appliance or its properties.
• The oven window and surrounding
appliance parts become hot during
baking, roasting and grilling. Children

appliance. Make sure that when
connecting electrical appliances to
sockets near to the oven, the electrical
leads do not come into contact with hot
cooking areas or become jammed in the
hot oven door.
• Always use oven gloves to remove hot
heatproof dishes or pots from the oven.

the surface materials.

when it is not in use.
