Safety During Use
• This appliance may only be used for normal cooking and frying in the
home. It is not designed for commercial or industrial purposes.
• Do not use the hob to heat the room.
• Take care when plugging electric appliances into mains sockets near
the hob. Connection leads must not come into contact with the hot
surface.
• Overheated fats and oils catch fire quickly. You should supervise
cooking when preparing foods in fat or oil (e.g. chips).
• Switch off the cooking zones after use.
Safety When Cleaning
• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high
pressure cleaner.
• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning in-
structions in this manual.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
• Do not use the cooking area as a worktop or storage space.
• The frameless edge of the glass ceramic surface is susceptible to
knocks. Please be careful when moving pots and pans around.
• Do not have the cook zones on with empty pans, or with no pots or
pans on them.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature
changes, but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if particularly
hard or sharp objects fall on to it.
• Do not use pots made of cast iron, or which have damaged bases with
rough edges or burrs. Moving these around may cause scratches.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking zone
and melts, remove immediately, while still hot, using a kitchen scrap-
er. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when removed.
• Keep objects or materials liable to melt away from the ceramic glass
surface, for example, artificial materials, aluminium foil, or cooking
wraps. If any other materials or foodstuffs are melting on the ceramic
glass surface, these should also be cleaned away immediately, using a
kitchen scraper.
