Your new electric oven is guaranteed* and will give lasting service. This guarantee is only applicable if the appliance has
been installed in accordance with the installation instructions detailed in this booklet.
To help make best use of your cooking equipment, please read this booklet carefully.
The oven is designed specifically for domestic use and responsibility will not be accepted for use in any other installation.
Introduction
To help remove the 'new' smell, heat the empty oven to maximum temperature for a minimum of two to three hours, keeping
the door/s closed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated (eg. open a window or use an extractor fan) and that persons
who may be sensitive to the odour avoid any fumes. It is suggested that any pets be removed from the room until the smell
has ceased.
This odour is due to any temporary finish on oven linings and elements and any moisture absorbed by the insulation.
Note: When the oven is first used, an odour may be omitted - this will cease after a short period of use.
* The guarantee is subject to the provisions that the appliance:
(a) Has been used solely in accordance with this booklet.
(b) Has been properly connected to a suitable supply voltage as stated on the rating plate, attached to the
appliance.
(c) Has not been subjected to misuse or accident or been modified or repaired by any person other than the
manufacturers authorised employee or agent.
(d) Has been correctly installed.
