For your safety
Always..
Always take care when touching any part of the cooker which may be hot. Use dry oven
gloves when removing or replacing food or dishes. Care should be taken to avoid touching the
heating elements inside the oven.
Always stand back when opening the oven door to allow any build-up of heat or steam to
disperse.
Always keep the oven and grill doors closed when not in use to prevent accidents, but
remember that the grill door must be kept open when grilling to prevent overheating.
Always make sure that the roof, side and back panels, and shelves are fitted correctly before
using the oven or grill.
Always keep your cooker clean, as a build-up of grease or fat from cooking may be a fire
hazard.
Always switch off at the mains supply and allow the cooker to cool before cleaning your
cooker.
Always supervise children and pets, particularly when grilling, as exposed parts of the cooker
may become hot.
Always place pans centrally over the hotplate burners, and position them so that the handles
cannot be accidentally knocked or become heated by other burners.
Always keep handles away from the edge of the hob. For added safety you should consider
using a suitable hob guard.
Always make sure that all the controls are switched off when you finish cooking.
Always remember that your cooker may stay hot for a time even after you have finished
cooking.
Always keep ventilation slots clear of obstructions.
Always keep children away from cooker when cleaning at maximum
oven setting.
