SAFETY
What you should pay attention to
Safe use
• Ensure that there is adequate ventilation during use. Keep natural
ventilation openings open.
• When using the hob for long periods, extra ventilation is necessary.
Open a window for instance or install a mechanical fan.
• Use the hob only for preparing dishes. The appliance is not suitable
for space heating.
• Never flambé under an extractor hood. The high flames can cause a
fire, even if the fan is switched off.
• The burner parts are hot during and immediately after use. Do not
touch them, and avoid contact with non-heat-resistant materials.
• Never immerse hot burner parts in cold water. The rapid cooling
can damage the enamel.
• The distance from the pan to 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 distort.
• Always use the pan supports and suitable cooking utensils.
• Always place the pan on the pan support. Placing the pan directly
on the burner head can result in dangerous situations.
• Aluminium trays or foil are not suitable as cooking utensils. They
can become burnt into the burners and pan supports.
• The hob can only function effectively if the burner parts have been
assembled using the guide ridges.
• Ensure that the pan supports lie properly against each other and
flat on the glaa panel. Only then can the pans be positioned stably.
• The device will become hot during use and will remain so for some
time after it has been switched off. So please be sure not to touch
the device while it is hot.
• Always wear oven gloves or use oven cloths when operating the
device. Keep oven gloves or oven cloths away from the flame.
• Do not warm closed tins and such like on the hob. There will be a
buildup of pressure that will cause tins to explode. You might get
injured or scalded.
• The device is not to be positioned nor used outdoors.
