• Do not use the appliance as a worktop. The appliance may
accidentally be switched on or still be hot or catch fire.
• Never cover the appliance with a cloth or something similar.
If the appliance is still hot or is switched on, there is a risk of fire.
• Never use a pressure cleaner or steam cleaner to clean the hob.
• Do not use the appliance in temperatures below 5°C.
• When you use the hob for the first time you will notice a "new
smell". Don't worry, this is normal. If the kitchen is well ventilated,
the smell will soon disappear.
• Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during use.
• Keep all natural ventilation openings open.
• When using the hob for long periods, extra ventilation is necessary.
For example, open a window or install an electric fan.
• Never flambé under a cooker hood. The high flames can cause
a fire, even if the cooker hood is switched off.
• The burner components are hot during and immediately after use.
• Do not touch them and avoid contact with non-heat resistant
materials.
• Never immerse the hot burner caps and pan supports in cold
water. The rapid cooling can damage the enamel.
• The distance between the pan and a knob or non-heat resistant
wall should always be greater than two centimetres. In case
of smaller distances the high temperature may cause the knobs
or wall to discolour and/or deform.
• Always use the pan supports and suitable cookware.
• Always place the pan on the pan support. Placing the pan directly
on the burner cap can result in dangerous situations.
• Aluminium trays or foil are not suitable as cooking utensils.
They can burn into the burner caps and pan supports.
• The hob can only function effectively if the burner components
have been assembled using the guide ridges. Ensure that the pan
supports lie properly against each other and flat on the drip tray.
Only then the pans can be positioned stably.
• Keep oven gloves or oven cloths away from the flame.
• This appliance should only be connected by a registered installer.
