User manual CANDY FIDC X502

[. . . ] Cleaning and maintenance should not be carried out by unsupervised children. Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glasses, as they can scratch the surface The oven must be switched off before removing the removable parts. Do not use a steam cleaner or high pressure spray for cleaning operations. The connection to the power source must be carried out by a suitably qualified professional. [. . . ] For the best results with your oven, you should read this manual carefully and retain it for future reference. Before installing the oven, take note of the serial number so that you can give it to customer service staff if any repairs are required. Having removed the oven from its packaging, check that it has not been damaged during transportation. If you have doubts, do not use the oven and refer to a qualified technician for advice. Keep all of the packaging material (plastic bags, polystyrene, nails) out of the reach of children. When the oven is switched on for the first time, strong smelling smoke can develop, which is caused by the glue on the insulation panels surrounding the oven heating for the first time. This is absolutely normal and, if it occurs, you should wait for the smoke to dissipate before putting food in the oven. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility in cases where the instructions contained in this document are not observed. NOTE: the oven functions, properties and accessories cited in this manual will vary, depending on the model you have purchased. safety Indications Only use the oven for its intended purpose, that is only for the cooking of foods; any other use, for example as a heat source, is considered improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from improper, incorrect or unreasonable usage. The use of any electrical appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules: - do not pull on the power cable to disconnect the plug from the socket; - do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands or feet; - in general the use of adaptors, multiple sockets and extension cables is not recommended; - in case of malfunction and/or poor operation, switch off the appliance and do not tamper with it. The power supply to which the oven is connected must conform with the laws in force in the country of installation. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by the failure to observe these instructions. The oven must be connected to an electrical supply with an earthed wall outlet or a disconnector with multiple poles, depending on the laws in force in the country of installation. The electrical supply should be protected with suitable fuses and the cables used must have a transverse section that can ensure correct supply to the oven. CONNECTION The oven is supplied with a power cable that should only be connected to an electrical supply with 220-240 Vac power between the phases or between the phase and neutral. Before the oven is connected to the electrical supply, it is important to check: - power voltage indicated on the gauge; - the setting of the disconnector. The grounding wire connected to the oven's earth terminal must be connected to the earth terminal of the power supply. WARNING Before connecting the oven to the power supply, ask a qualified electrician to check the continuity of the power supply's earth terminal. The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for any accidents or other problems caused by failure to connect the oven to the earth terminal or by an earth connection that has defective continuity. NOTE: as the oven could require maintenance work, it is advisable to keep another wall socket available so that the oven can be connected to this if it is removed from the space in which it is installed. [. . . ] Open the oven door as infrequently as possible, because heat from the cavity disperses every time it is opened. For a significant energy saving, switch off the oven between 5 and 10 minutes before the planned end of the cooking time, and use the residual heat that the oven continues to generate. Keep the seals clean and in order, to avoid any heat dispersal outside of the cavity. If you have an electric contract with an hourly tariff, the "delayed cooking" programme makes energy saving more simple, moving the cooking process to start at the reduced tariff time slot. [. . . ]
