WARNING

• The appliance may emit a little smoke and a characteristic smell when you switch it on for the first time. This is normal and will stop on its own. Make sure the appliance has sufficient ventilation.
• During use the heating element will switch on and off to keep the temperature of the baking plates constant. Consequently, the temperature pilot light will also occasionally be illuminated.
