Hotpoint EG1000EX Instructions Manual page 5

For your Safety
NEVER . . .
NEVER leave children unsupervised where the cooker is installed as all
surfaces will get hot during and after use.
NEVER allow anyone to sit or stand on any part of the cooker.
NEVER store items that children may attempt to reach above the cooker.
NEVER heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build up causing the
container to burst.
NEVER store chemicals, food stuffs, pressurised containers in or on the
cooker, or in cabinets immediately above or next to the cooker.
NEVER fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, and never use a lid.
DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
NEVER place flammable or plastic items on or near the hotplate.
NEVER use proprietary spillage collectors on the hotplate.
NEVER use the cooker as a room heater.
NEVER dry clothes or place other times over or near to the hotplate or oven/
grill doors.
NEVER wear garments with long flowing sleeves whilst cooking.
NEVER operate the grill with the grill doors closed. This may cause overheating
of your cooker.
NEVER line the shelves, floor or sides of the oven or grill with aluminium foil as
overheating and damage can result.
NEVER use steam cleaners.
NEVER touch the heating elements inside the oven or grill even when off.
NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and
moisture in the room in which it is installed. Always ensure that the kitchen is well
ventilated; keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation
device (mechanical extractor hood).
In particular, when using more than one hotplate burner, open a window if a
mechanical ventilation device is not operating.
