Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
Important notes for the user
Do not let small children use the
appliance or touch it during oper-
ation. Not only do the cooking areas
heat up, but also the control panel.
Danger of burning. Keep all pans out of
the reach of children.
Make sure that there is a minimum
distance of 15 mm between the
pot or pan and the control panel. Never
place a pot on the control panel.
When using an electric socket
near the hob, care should be taken
that the cable of the electrical ap-
pliance does not come into contact
with the gas flames or the hot parts of
the hob.
Note that potential hazards may
exist with overhead cabinets.
The wok/pan support and trivet (if
supplied) heat up when the bur-
ners are in use. Do not touch them until
they have cooled down. The use of
oven gloves is recommended.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate
on the unit.
Never leave the hob unattended
when cooking with oil or fat. Very
hot oil can cause a fire. Always heat fat
slowly, watching as it heats.
When frying foods, make sure that
the food is as dry as possible so
as to prevent moisture from causing hot
fat to bubble over.
When shallow or deep frying, do
not overfill the pan with oil.

Before removing pots and pans,
be sure to turn the control to "OFF".
Allow sufficient time for the unit to
cool before touching or exposing
surface areas to flammable materials.
Always ensure that food is suffi-
ciently cooked or reheated.
Many factors will affect the overall cook-
ing time, including the size and amount
of food, its temperature, changes to the
recipe and the shape and size of cook-
ing container.
Some foods may contain micro organ-
isms which are only destroyed by
thorough cooking, therefore when cook-
ing or reheating foods, e.g. poultry, se-
lect a longer cooking or reheating time.
It is essential to ensure that food
has been evenly and sufficiently
heated. Turn or stir during cooking if
necessary, and check that it is thor-
oughly cooked.
Never use damp potholders.
Use only suitable cookware. Unsuit-
able cookware may break due to a
sudden temperature change.
Avoid allowing liquids or foods con-
taining salt to spill on to a stainless
steel hob. Should this happen, wipe up
any spillages containing salt immediate-
ly, otherwise discoloration could occur.
