General warnings – Candy FVH 927 X User Manual
Page 11
Thank you for choosing one of our products. To get the most out of your oven we recommend that you:
• Read the notes in this manual carefully: they contain important instructions on how to install, use and service this oven safely.
• Keep this booklet in a safe place for easy, future reference.
All accessible parts are hot when the appliance is in operation, take care to not touch these elements.
When the oven is first switched on it may give out acrid smelling fumes. This is because the bonding agent for insulating panels around
the oven has been heated up for the first time.
This is a completely normal, if it does occur you merely have to wait for the fumes to clear before putting the food into the oven.
An oven by its very nature becomes very hot. Especially the glass of the oven door.
Do not allow children to go near the oven when it is hot, especially when the grill is on.
GENERAL WARNINGS
10 GB
Note: For ovens that are combined with a hob unit the instructions
contained in the manual for the hob unit must be followed.
IMPORTANT
If the oven is to work properly, the kitchen housing must be suitable.
The panels of the kitchen unit that are next to the oven must be
made of a heat resistant material. Ensure that the glues of units
made of veneered wood can withstand temperatures of at least
120 °C. Plastics or glues that cannot withstand such temperatures
will melt and deform the unit. Once the oven has been lodged
inside the unit, the electrical parts must be completely insulated.
This is a legal safety requirement. All guards must be firmly fixed
into place so that it is impossible to remove them without using
special tools.
Remove the back of the kitchen unit to ensure an adequate
current of air circulates around the oven. The hob must have
a rear gap of at least 45 mm.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Plug into the power supply. Ensure first that there is a third contact
that acts as earthing for the oven. The oven must be properly
earthed.
If the model of oven is not fitted with a plug, fit a standard plug
to the power cable. It must be able to bear the power supply
indicated on the specifications plate. The earthing cable is yellow-
green. The plug must be fitted by a properly qualified person.
If the socket and the plug are incompatible the socket must be
changed by a properly qualified person. A properly qualified person
must also ensure that the power cables can carry the current
required to operate the oven.
An ON/OFF switch may also be connected to the power supply.
The connections must take account of the current supplied and
must comply with current legal requirements. The yellow-green
earthing cable must not be governed by the ON/OFF switch. The
socket or the ON/OFF switch used for connecting to the power
supply must be easily accessible when the oven has been installed.
Important: During installation, position the power cable in such a
way that it will not be subjected to temperatures of above 50°C
at any point.
The oven complies with safety standards set by the regulatory
bodies. The oven is safe to use only if it has been adequately
earthed in compliance with current legal requirements on wiring
safety. You must ensure that the oven has been adequately
earthed.
The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any harm
or injury to persons, animals or belongings caused by failure
to properly earth the oven.
WARNING: the voltage and the supply frequency are showed
on the rating plate (fig. on last page).
The cabling and wiring system must be able to bear the maximum
electric power required by the oven. This is indicated on the
specifications plate. If you are in any doubt at all, use the services
of a professionally qualified person.
OVEN EQUIPMENT (according to the model)
The simple shelf can take moulds
and dishes.
The tray holder shelf is especially good
for grilling things. Use it with the drip
tray.
The special profile of the shelves
means they stay horizontal even when
pulled right out. There is no risk of a
dish sliding or spilling.
It is necessary to do an initial cleaning of the equipment
before the first use of each of them. Wash them with a sponge.
Rinse and dry off.

Any other use, e.g. as a form of heating, is an improper use
of the oven and is therefore dangerous.
