Key risks

• Burns from contact with very hot surfaces, heating elements, spits and trays.
• Splashes of hot fat or juices when opening the door or removing the food.
• Fire risk due to grease build-up, blocked vents or proximity to combustible materials.
• Electric shock due to moisture, spills or a damaged cable/plug.
• Entrapment or injury from the rotating mechanism if handled while running.
• Cuts from sharp prongs, hooks or supports on the spit.
• Tipping or sliding of the appliance if placed on unstable or sloped surfaces.
• Excessive smoke due to overheating or incorrectly positioned food touching the heating elements.

Safe use

• Place the rotisserie on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, leaving space around it for ventilation.
• Keep curtains, paper, oils, aerosols and other flammable materials away.
• Do not cover grilles or ventilation openings; avoid lining areas that impede airflow.
• Do not move the appliance during operation or immediately afterwards; allow it to cool before moving it.
• Use oven gloves and heat-resistant utensils when handling trays, the spit and food.
• Secure and balance the chicken well on the spit to prevent vibration, rubbing and spills.
• Fit the drip tray correctly and prevent it from overflowing; empty it only when it is cold.
• Do not leave the rotisserie unattended while cooking.
• Keep the cable away from hot surfaces and points of strain; avoid overloaded extension leads.
• Disconnect from the mains and allow to cool before cleaning, fitting accessories or removing the spit.
• Avoid pouring water onto hot fat; if unusual smoke appears, switch off, unplug and ventilate the area.
• When opening the door, do so carefully to avoid a blast of steam and splashes.

Storage and maintenance

• Regularly clean grease and food residues when the appliance is cold to reduce smoke and fire risk.
• Check the condition of the cable, plug, accessories and supports; do not use the appliance if you notice visible damage.
• Dry removable parts completely before storing them to prevent corrosion and mould.
• Avoid abrasive products or scouring pads that could damage surfaces and coatings.
• Check that the interior is free from debris before each use and that the drip tray is in place.
• Store the rotisserie in a dry, clean, well-ventilated place, out of the reach of children.
• Do not wind the cable tightly around the appliance; avoid sharp bends.
• If you detect burning odours or abnormal operation, stop using it and allow it to cool before inspecting and cleaning it.

Usage restrictions

• Indoor use on a stable worktop; do not use outdoors or in damp environments.
• Not suitable for heat-sensitive materials (plastics, wraps or sealed containers not designed for oven use).
• Do not add large quantities of liquid; water coming into contact with hot fat can cause violent splashing.
• Avoid overloading the spit or trays; observe the manufacturer's stated capacity.
• Do not use the appliance if it is wet or after a heavy fall until its condition has been checked.
• Do not allow children to operate it; keep children and pets away during operation and cooling.
• People with heat sensitivity, or reduced mobility or perception should use it under supervision.
• Do not modify the appliance or use accessories that are not compatible with the model.
