• If you have doubts, do not use the oven and refer to a qualified technician for advice.
• Keep all of the packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails) out of the reach of children.
• When the oven is switched on for the first time, strong-smelling smoke can develop, which is caused by the glue on the insulation panels surrounding the oven heating for the first time.
• This is normal and, if it occurs, you should wait for the smoke to dissipate before putting food in the oven.
• The manufacturer accepts no responsibility in cases where the instructions contained in this document are not observed.

Safety Indications

Only use the oven for its intended purpose, that is, only for the cooking of foods; any other use, for example, as a heat source, is considered improper and therefore dangerous.

• The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect, or unreasonable usage.
• The use of any electrical appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules: –
• Do not pull on the power cable to disconnect the plug from the socket
• Do not touch the appliance with wet hands or feet.
• In general, the use of adaptors, multiple sockets, and extension cables is not recommended.
• In case of malfunction and/or poor operation, switch off the appliance and do not tamper with it.

Electrical Safety

• The power supply to which the oven is connected must conform to the laws in force in the country of installation.
• The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by the failure to observe these instructions.
• The oven must be connected to an electrical supply with an earthed wall outlet or a disconnector with multiple poles, depending on the laws in force in the country of installation.
• The electrical supply should be protected with suitable fuses, and the cables used must have a transverse section that can ensure correct supply to the oven.

Connection

The oven is supplied with a power cable that should only be connected to an electrical supply with 220-240 Vac power between the phases or between the phase and neutral.

• Before the oven is connected to the electrical supply, it is important to check
• Power voltage is indicated on the gauge.
• The setting of the disconnector.
  The grounding wire connected to the oven’s earth terminal must be connected to the earth terminal of the power supply.

Recommendations

• After each use of the oven, a minimum of cleaning will help keep the oven perfectly clean.
• 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.
• In order to prevent excessive dirtying of your oven and the resulting strong smoky smells, we recommend not using the oven at very high temperatures.
• It is better to extend the cooking time and lower the temperature a little. In addition to the accessories supplied with the oven.
• We advise you to only use dishes and baking moulds resistant to very high temperatures.

Installation
