Before First Use
Before using the oven for the first time clean it thoroughly.
Switch off the unit at the isolator or mains supply. Remove all
packing materials and accessories. Using hot water and a mild
detergent, wipe the oven interior and then rinse carefully
with a damp cloth. Wash the oven shelves and accessories in
a dishwasher or using hot water and a mild detergent and dry
thoroughly.
Slide the oven shelves into the oven and close the door. To
dispel any manufacturing smells, turn the oven to 200°C and
run for an hour.
Before using the grill for the first time you should also turn on
the grill and run for 15 minutes with the grill pan in position,
pushed fully back, and the grill door open.

n
n
retain heat even after you have stopped cooking.

When the oven is not in use, ensure that the control
n
n
knobs are in the OFF position.
To minimise the possibility of burns, always be
n
n
certain that the controls are in the OFF position and
that the entire oven is cool before attempting to
clean.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp
n
n
gloves might result in steam burns when you touch a
hot surface. Never operate the oven with wet hands.
DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a

n
n
etc., a safe distance away from your oven, and never
wear loose-fitting or hanging clothes while using the
