WARNING: fire hazard: do not leave anything standing on
the cooker.
WARNING : cooking with fat or oil on an unattended cooker
•
can be dangerous and could result in fire. NEVER try to
extinguish the fire with water. Instead, you should turn off
the appliance and then cover the flames with a lid or an
extinguishing blanket, for example.
• The cooker must be cleaned regularly and food residues must
be removed.
• When there are scratches on the glass pane of the oven
door, it could break. Do not use scrapers or sharp or abrasive
cleaning agents.
• Do not use the appliance as a worktop. The appliance can
be switched on by accident or still be hot, which means that
objects could melt, get 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 fire hazard.
• Do not place metal objects such as knives, forks, spoons
and lids on the surface of the cooking section. These can
become hot.
• The ceramic plate is very strong, but not unbreakable.
If something falls on it, such as a spice jar or a pointy object,
this may result in a broken plate.
WARNING : if the cooking surface is cracked, switch off the
•
appliance to avoid the risk of an electric shock.
• At higher positions, you should be aware of the very fast heating
time. Always remain nearby after adjusting a cooking zone to
a higher position.
• Never clean the cooker with a high pressure cleaner or steam
cleaner.
• Do not use the appliance in a room with an ambient
temperature below 5°C.
• If the appliance is used for the first time, it will smell 'new'.
This is normal. The smell will disappear through ventilation.
WARNING : if the glass plate of the cooking section is broken:
•
- immediately switch off all cooking zones and electrical
heating elements and interrupt the power supply to the
appliance.
- do not touch the surface of the appliance.
- do not use the appliance.
