® Convection Steam Oven Operating instructions and Cookbook NN-CS598S
Important safety instructions. Before operating this oven, please read these instructions carefully and keep for future reference. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory and mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction by a person responsible for their safety concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved, including escaping steam.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Warning! The appliance should be inspected for damage to the door seals and door seal areas and if these areas are damaged the appliance should not be operated until it has been repaired by a service technician trained by the manufacturer.
Warning! Do not place this oven near an electric or gas cooker range. Warning! Only allow children to use the oven without supervision when adequate instructions have been given so that the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and understands the hazards of improper use. For Countertop use: The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface 85 cm above the floor. Allow 15 cm of space on the top of the oven, 10 cm at the back, 5 cm on one side, and the other side open.
Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at fuse or circuit breaker panel. When heating liquids, e.g. soup, sauces and beverages in your oven, overheating the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden boil over of the hot liquid. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars are to be stirred or shaken. The temperature has to be checked before consumption to avoid burns.
DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL OVEN CLEANERS. When using the GRILL or COMBINATION mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned occasionally, it may start to “smoke” during use. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of surfaces that could affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation. Warning! The accessible parts may become hot in combination use.
Do not use harsh, abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass. Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during COMBINATION and GRILLING, take care when opening or closing the door and when inserting or removing food and accessories. This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
Warning! Steam may billow out when you open the door. If there is steam in the oven, do not reach in with your bare hands! Risk of burns! Use oven gloves. The oven has heaters situated in the top and rear of the oven. During and after using either the CONVECTION, GRILL or COMBINATION involving CONVECTION, GRILL or STEAM functions, all inside surfaces of the oven will be very hot.
Do not use the Wire Shelf in MICROWAVE mode only. The purpose of the drip tray is to collect excess water during STEAM and MICROWAVE mode. It should be emptied after each STEAM and MICROWAVE operation. Clean the water tank in warm water once a week.

Questions and Answers Q: Why wonʼt my oven turn on? A: When the oven does not turn on, check the following: 1. Is the oven plugged in securely? Remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10 seconds and reinsert. 2. Check the circuit breaker and the fuse. Reset the circuit breaker or replace the fuse if it is tripped or blown. 3. If the circuit breaker or fuse is all right, plug another appliance into the outlet. If the other appliance works, there probably is a problem with the oven.
Questions and Answers Q: Can I use a conventional oven thermometer in the oven? A: Only when you are using CONVECTION/GRILL cooking mode. The metal in some thermometers may cause arcing in your oven and should not be used on MICROWAVE and COMBINATION cooking modes.
