DANGER. Risk of explosion and
poisoning! Put out all naked
flames and do not smoke, strike
matches or do anything that
could cause ignition. Do not
operate any electric switches
(e.g. light switch, TV, computer,
cooker or door bell). Do not use a
telephone or mobile phone.
• The use of gas cooking appliances results
in the production of heat and moisture in
the room in which it is installed. Ensure
that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep
natural ventilation holes open or install a
mechanical ventilation device (mechanical
extractor hood).
• Gas appliances and systems must be
regularly checked for proper functioning.
The regulator, hose and its clamp must be
checked regularly and replaced within the
periods recommended by its manufacturer
or when necessary.
• Clean the gas burners regularly. The
flames should be blue and burn evenly.
• Good combustion is required in gas
appliances. In case of incomplete
combustion, carbon monoxide (CO) might
develop. Carbon monoxide is a
colourless, odourless and very toxic gas,
which has a lethal effect even in very
small doses.
Safety when working with gas
• Any work carried out on gas equipment
and systems may only be done by
authorised qualified persons who are
registered LPG Gas installers.
• Prior to installation, ensure that the local
distribution conditions (nature of the gas
and gas pressure) and the adjustment of
the appliance are compatible. In the event of a pan fire
• Switch off the Gas supply.
• Smother the flames with a blanket or
damp cloth.
• Burns and injuries are usually caused by
picking up the burning pan and rushing
outside with it.
• Do NOT use water to extinguish an oil or
fat fire.
If you smell gas
• Turn off all valves on gas appliances and
gas meter at the main control valve,
unless it's in a confined space or cellar.
• Extinguish all naked flames.
• Do not operate any electrical appliances.
• Ventilate the area. Open doors and
windows.
• Check for leaks. Check all tubes and
connections for tightness.
• If odour persists contact your nearest
Defy Service Centre for assistance.
• If you still smell gas leave the property.
• Warn the neighbors.
• Call the fire-brigade. Use a telephone
outside the house.
• If you have door or gates that are secured
by an electric lock, or entry phone, please
open these manually.
• Do not re-enter the property until you are
told it is safe to do so.
In the event of a burn back
• In the event of a burn back (where the
flame burns back into the jet ) immediately
turn off the control to the affected burner.
• Wait a few minutes and relight the burner
in the normal manner.
• If the burn back occurs again, turn off the
control knob to the affected burner, and
consult the nearest Defy service
technician, who will advise you.
Gas and electrical connections
must be carried out by qualified
personnel in accordance with
current and local regulations.
Installations carried out by
unauthorized persons will void
the warranty.
IMPORTANT: If the gas type of
the appliance is changed, then
the rating plate that shows the
gas type of the unit must also be
changed. the sticker that is

valves must be controlled from 90° to
210° (or 160° according to the gas valve
model) If flame is set from 0° to 90° the
burner will be below the minimum output
and may result in a flash back and cause
burners to melt and deform.
The above user faults are not covered by
the warranty.
WARNING: Unattended cooking on
a hob with fat or oil can be
dangerous and may result in a fire.
Danger of fire: Do not store items on
the cooking surface.
CAUTION: The cooking process
has to be supervised. A short term
cooking process has to be
supervised continuously.
Use only pots with a solid level
base. An uneven base can prolong
cooking times and waste energy.

The regulator is faulty and
needs to be replaced. Have regulator checked
and replaced.
Do
• Clean your appliance regularly.
• Use flat-bottomed pots and pans when
cooking on the hotplates. This will maximize
efficiency and reduce electricity costs.
• Leave about a 40 mm. air gap between
baking tins and the oven walls. Adequate air
circulation is important for good baking
results.
• Get into the habit of wearing oven gloves
when handling utensils in a hot oven. This will
help to avoid accidental burns.
• Partly slide out the oven shelf before
removing hot dishes. This prevents accidental
contact with the hot oven sides.
Don’t
• Use pots which are smaller than the hotplate
diameter. This wastes electricity and allows
the pot handles to overheat.
• Place anything on the open oven door. The
glass is not a work surface and could get
scratched.
• Use the appliance to heat the home. Neither
the hotplates nor the oven was designed for
this purpose and damage could occur.
• Allow pot handles to overhang the front of the
appliance. Children might be tempted to grab
them with harmful consequences.
OVER THE YEARS, DEFY'S SERVICE CENTRES HAVE IDENTIFIED THIS LIST OF DO'S AND
DON'TS AS BEING IMPORTANT FOR CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND SAFETY. PLEASE READ IT
AND FAMILIARISE YOURSELF WITH ITS CONTENTS.
The oven may emit steam during use.
This is normal and is not a fault.
When metal parts are heated, they
may expand and cause noise. This is
not a fault.
Never try to extinguish a fire with
water! When oil has caught fire,
immediately cover the pot or pan
with a lid. Switch off the hob if safe
to do so and phone the fire service.
Do NOT engage ringer timer control
knob in anti-clockwise direction from
the "0" position.
