appliances, owners should contact their local
authorities or appliance dealer.

GRILL and FAN-ASSISTED GRILL mode cooking. This
will achieve better results while saving energy
(approximately 10%).
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean to
ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere
properly to the door, thus avoiding heat dispersion.
