supervised continuously.
Warning: Unattended cooking on the cooktop with fat or oil can be dangerous and
•
may result in a fire. Never try to extinguish a fire with water. Switch off the
appliance and then cover the flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boil-over causes smoking and

greasy spillages that may ignite.
