Never use the hotplates with the burner caps removed.
Never use badly designed or misshapen pans which may be unstable.
Never allow pan handles to stick out beyond the hotplate (where they can be
knocked) or over another burner.
IF YOU SMELL GAS turn off all gas controls on the hob, open windows and turn off
gas supply at the mains. Do not operate any electrical switches and contact your
local gas supplier immediately.
Always make sure you understand the controls prior to use.
Always take care when touching any part of the cooker that may be hot. Use good
quality dry oven gloves when removing or replacing food or dishes.
Always stand back when opening the oven door to allow any build-up of heat or
steam to disperse.
Always keep the oven and grill doors closed when not in use to prevent accidents.
Always make sure that the roof, side and back panels, and shelves are fitted
correctly before using the oven or grill.
Always keep your cooker clean, as a build-up of grease or fat from cooking may be
a fire hazard.
Always switch off at the mains supply before cleaning your cooker.
Always supervise children and pets, particularly when grilling, as exposed parts of
the grill may become hot.
Always place pans centrally over the hotplate burners and make sure that they are
stable.
Always keep handles away from the edge of the hob and any other burners. For
added safety you should consider using a suitable hob guard.

Always remember that your cooker may stay hot for a time even after you have
finished cooking.
