General Instructions
Before using the oven for the first time, it is recommended to perform
preliminary cleaning by wiping external surfaces with a damp cloth, washing
all accessories with hot water and washing up liquid, and setting the empty
oven to the maximum temperature for about 1 hour to remove any lingering
smells of newness. We thank you for choosing one of our products. For the best
results with your oven, you should read this manual carefully and retain it
for future reference. Before installing the oven, take note of the serial
number so that you can give it to customer service staff if any repairs are
required. Having removed the oven from its packaging, check that it has not
been damaged during transportation. 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 absolutely 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.
NOTE: the oven functions, properties and accessories cited in this manual
will vary, depending on the model you have purchased.

Electrical Safety
ENSURE THAT AN ELECTRICIAN OR QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN MAKES THE ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS.
The power supply to which the oven is connected must conform with 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 sup-ply to the oven.
VOLTAGE AND POWER CONSUMPTION
220-240V ac 2400W (10.43 A)
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 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 ter-minal of the power supply.
WARNING
Before connecting the oven to the power supply, ask a qualified electrician to
check the conti-nuity of the power supply’s earth terminal. The manufacturer
accepts no responsibility for any accidents or other problems caused by
failure to connect the oven to the earth terminal or by an earth connection
that has defective continuity.
NOTE: as the oven could require maintenance work, it is advisable to keep another wall socket available so that the oven can be connected to this if it is removed from the space in which it is installed. The power cable must only be substituted by technical service staff or by technicians with equivalent qualifications. A low light around the central main switch could be present when the oven is off. This is a normal behavior. I can be removed just turning the plug upside down or swapping the supply terminals.
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. Al-uminium foil or any other protection, in
direct contact with the hot enamel, risks melting and de-teriorating the
enamel of the insides. In order to prevent excessive dirtying of your oven and
the resulting strong smokey smells, we recommend not using the oven at very
high temperature. It is better to extend the cooking time and lower the
temperature a little. In addition to the acces-sories supplied with the oven,
we advise you only use dishes and baking moulds resistant to very high
temperatures.
Installation
The manufacturers have no obligation to carry this out. If the assistance
of the manufacturer is required to rectify faults arising from incorrect
installation, this assistance is not covered by the guarantee. The
installation instructions for professionally qualified personnel must be
followed. Incorrect installation may cause harm or injury to people, animals
or belongings. The manufac-turer cannot be held responsible for such harm or
injury. The oven can be located high in a column or under a worktop. Before
fixing, you must ensure good ventilation in the oven space to allow proper
circulation of the fresh air required for cooling and protecting the internal
parts. Make the openings specified on last page according to the type of
fitting. It is important to follow the installation instructions provided in
the manual. Keep another wall socket available in case maintenance work is
required on the oven. The power cable should only be replaced by technical
service staff or technicians with equivalent qualifications.
