Smeg CE6GPXU Owner's Manual page 6

- To prevent burns, allow heating elements to cool before cleaning by hand.
- Clean only parts listed in this manual.
- During the self cleaning function the oven will become very hot. Prevent children from coming into
contact with the oven.
- Remove all accessories from the oven before the self-cleaning cycle is engaged. The high
temperatures required for this cycle will damage the accessories.
- Do not let metal objects (aluminum, foil, metal pans) come into contact with the heating elements.
- Do not slide cookware across the bottom of the oven. This could scratch and damage the enamel
oven lining.
- Do not lean, sit or place heavy items on the open oven door.
- Never add water to a hot oven tray or pan or pour water directly on food in a hot oven. The steam that
is formed could cause serious burns. Any sudden change in temperature can damage the oven's
enamel.
- Cover all cooked food that is left in the oven to be kept warm. This will prevent moisture from
condensing on the inside of the oven. Long-term or excessive condensation can damage the oven.
- Do not place pots, pans or baking sheets directly on the oven bottom when using the top and bottom
heating elements, the top and bottom heating elements + convection fan or the convection heating
element. This could crack the enamel lining of the oven bottom.
- Never use any part of the range or oven for storing flammable liquids or materials. Flammable
materials can ignite and plastic items may melt or burst into flame.
- Do not use a steam jet to clean the oven. Steam can penetrate the electrical components and
result in a short circuit.
- ONLY QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL SHOULD PERFORM REPAIRS. Service personnel
must disconnect the power supply before servicing this appliance.
- Never leave the range unattended when cooking with oil or grease as there is an increased
risk of fire if overheating occurs.
- Never use water on a grease fire!
- Put out the fire with an appropriately rated dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
- Make sure that the power cords of small appliances do not touch or get caught in the oven door.
- Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
- Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the range.
