HINTS FOR SAFE USE OF
THE HOBS
– Before switching on, check which
knob controls the required hob. You
are advised to place the saucepan on
the hob before switching on and to
take it off after switching off.
– Use saucepans with an even flat bot-
tom
(be
careful
saucepans). Uneven bottoms can
scratch the pyroceram surface. Check
that the bottom is clean and dry.
– Check that the saucepan handle does
not protrude from the top to avoid
knocking it over. This precaution also
makes it more difficult for children to
reach the saucepan.
– Do not use the top if the surface is
broken or damaged.
– Do not bend over the hobs when they
are on.
– Do not leave aluminium foil, grease-
proof paper etc. or plastic on the hob
when it is hot.
– Remember that the hobs stay hot for
quite a long time (approx. 30 min.)
after they have been switched off.
– Scrupulously follow the cleaning
instructions.
– Do not drop heavy or sharp objects on
the glass ceramic cooktop.
– If you note a crack in the cooktop,
switch the appliance off immediately
and call the After-Sales Service.
– If the cooktop has halogen lamps, do
not stare at them.
– Never cook the food directly on the
glass ceramic cooktop, but in special
pans or containers.
