Precautions And Useful Suggestions - Whirlpool AKM 605 Instruction Manual

PRECAUTIONS AND USEFUL SUGGESTIONS

The Manufacturer cannot be held responsible
for damages derived from improper, wrong
and unreasonable use. (i.e. heating rooms).
The use of electric household appliances requi-
res observation of several fundamental rules.
The glass ceramic hob has a good mechanical
strength and can withstand small accidents,
misuse; however, if some objects should fall
on the surface and damage it, please do not
use the hob. Disconnect it from the electrical
supply and contact the nearest Service Centre.
Do not use the glass ceramic hob as a working
surface.
Do not use plastic utensils or aluminium foil
containers to cook foods on the glass ceramic
hob.
Before operating the hob, check that the
cooking zones are clean, with no grease,
food or liquid deposits: do not use pans with
wet bases.
When the hob is in use, the surface of the
cooking zones is very hot. For this reason
keep children away from it.
As overheated fats and oils can easily ignite,
do not leave frying food unattended.
Do not operate the cooking zones without
anything on them.
Do not let electric wires (i.e.: of small hou-
sehold appliances) come into contact with
warm parts of the hob.
Remember synthetic clothes, plastic utensils
or any other similar materials could ignite on
the hob.
Take care not to scratch the surface of
the glass ceramic hob with the bottom of
pans.
For best cooking results, we recommend the
use of stainless steel pans with flat bases. The
diameter of the base must be the same or sli-
ghtly greater than that of the plate.
Never sprinkle sugar or sweetened foods
such as jams, jellies and juices on the hob.
Should it happen, please clean thoroughly
the hob by carefully following the cleaning
instructions.
