Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob as pressure will
build up in the tin and it can explode.
This could result in injury and scalding
or damage.
Do not use the hob as a resting
place for anything else. This could
lead to a danger of the article begin-
ning to melt or catching fire, if residual
heat were still present or if the hob were
to be switched on inadvertently.
Do not cover the hob with a cloth,
household foils or other similar ob-
jects. There is a danger of this catching
fire if the appliance is switched on.
Do not leave the appliance unat-
tended when cooking with oils and
fats as these are a fire hazard if allowed
to overheat.
If oil or fat does catch fire despite
this do not attempt to put out the
flames with water. Use a suitable fire
blanket or fire extinguisher.
Do not flambé under a cooker
hood. The flames could set the
cooker hood on fire.

Do not use the appliance to heat
up the room. Due to the high tem-
peratures radiated, objects left near the
hob could catch fire.
In the event of any breakages or
cracks occurring in the ceramic
hob it must be switched off immediately
and disconnected from the electricity
supply. Contact the Service Depart-
ment. Continued use would be danger-
ous as liquids etc. boiling over could
penetrate to the electrical components
through any crack and cause a short
circuit. Contact the Service Depart-
ment.
Do not drop anything on the ce-
ramic hob. Even a light object such
as an egg cup, could cause damage in
certain circumstances.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at higher
temperatures and could damage the
appliance.
Never heat up empty pans as they
could get damaged.
