Oven door hinges may be damaged when under excessive load. Do not place heavy pans on open oven door and do not lean against open oven door when cleaning the oven cavity.
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME If your cooking hob has conventional cooking zones, switch them on to the maximum power for 3 to 5 minutes without any cookware on them. As the cooking zones heat up, some smoke may appear on the cooking hob surface. Thus, the cooking zone finish reaches its maximum resistance.
COOKING HOB CONVENTIONAL HOBS - Make sure the cooking zone and the cookware bottom is clean and dry. This will allow better conduction of heat and prevent any damage to the heating surface. - Overheated fat and oil on the cooking zones may ignite. Therefore, be careful when cooking with fat or oil and always control the cooking process.
Page 16
GLASS CERAMIC COOKING SURFACE - The heating zone will quickly reach the set power or temperature, while the area around the hot cooking zones will remain cook. - The hob is resistant to temperature changes. - The hob is also impact-resistant. Even if the cookware is placed onto the hob roughly, the hob will not be damaged.
