Safety With The Cooktop
• Never leave cooking food unattended. Do not
allow the liquid to boil dry
• Do not use asbestos mats or heat diffusers, as
these trap the heat and can cause damage to the
cooktop from overheating.
• Don't wear loose clothing while cooking, as
garments may catch utensil handles or catch fire.
• Use dry utensil holders. Wet pot holders can build
up steam. Do not use towels or other large pieces
of cloth to pick up cooking utensils, as these may
touch the heating element and catch fire.
• Do not allow pot handles to overhang other
burners that are in use, as this will cause
scorching of the handle, and potential handling
burns.
• Always make sure that pan handles are turned
towards the centre of the hob in order to avoid
accidental burns.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the OFF
position when the appliance is not in use.

the electricity mains.
• Before disposing of the appliance, make it
unusable by unplugging it and cutting off the
power supply cable. It is also advisable to
remove any potentially hazardous parts,
especially with regard to children who may use
the old appliance as a toy.
• Periodically check the condition of the gas
connection pipe and have it replaced by a
qualified technician as soon as it shows any signs
of wear or damage.
Gas And Electrical Safety
• If you are using small domestic appliances near
the hob, ensure that their power supply cables do
not come into contact with the hot parts of the
surface.
• DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF
THIS APPLIANCE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION.
• DO NOT USE OR STORE FLAMMABLE
MATERIALS IN THE STORAGE COMPARTMENT
OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.
Gas appliances require a regular air supply to
maintain efficient operation. Always ensure that the
kitchen is adequately ventilated whilst the appliance
is in use.
Respecting And Conserving
The Environment
• You can help to reduce the peak load of the
electricity supply network companies by using the
oven in the hours between late afternoon and the
early hours of the morning.
• Always keep the oven door closed when using the
GRILL and DOUBLE GRILL modes. This will
achieve better results while saving energy
(approximately 10%).
• Check the door seals regularly and wipe them clean
to ensure they are free of debris so that they adhere
properly to the door, thus avoiding heat dispersion.
