Melissa Maxi Oven 251-003/004 - Manual (Page 15)

PREPARING THE OVEN
Each individual oven is checked at the factory,
but for safety’s sake, after unpacking the oven,
you should check carefully that it has not been
damaged during transport. Check whether there
is any visible damage (e.g. in the form of dents or
similar), if the door closes properly, and if the
hinges are in order. If it appears that the oven
has been damaged, you must contact the shop
where you bought it, and do not use it until it has
been checked by an authorised specialist.
•
You should check before installation that all
packaging materials have been removed
from the oven both inside and outside.
• Ensure that the oven is positioned correctly
(see the safety measures above).
• Plug in.
The heating elements were oiled during
manufacture and these will therefore smoke
slightly when the oven is first used. This is
entirely safe and will stop after a few minutes.
However, so that the food does not taste of this
smoke, we recommend that you take the
following action before using the oven for the
first time:
•
Leave the oven door ajar.
• Set the function selector so both the top
and bottom heating elements are active.
• Set the oven temperature to 250° C, and
leave it on for 15 minutes.
The smoke will now have completely
disappeared, and you can use the oven to cook
food.

CLEANING
When cleaning the oven, you should pay
attention to the following points:
•
Remove the plug from the wall socket and
allow the oven to cool down before
cleaning.
• Never use scouring powder, steel scourers
or other strong cleaning agents to clean the
interior or exterior surfaces of the oven, as
they may scratch the surfaces.
