or similar instruments to
clean the surface of the
glass or between the rims of
the burners and the frame (if
applicable).
• Wash stainless steel parts with water,
and then dry them with a soft cloth.
6.2 Pan supports
The pan supports are not
resistant to washing in a
dishwasher. They must be
washed by hand.

PORTUGUÊS 19

•Deixar cozinhados com gorduras ou óleos na placa
sem vigilância pode ser perigoso e resultar em
incêndio.
•Nunca tente extinguir um incêndio com água. Em vez
disso, desligue o aparelho e cubra as chamas com
uma tampa de tacho ou manta de incêndio.
•Não coloque objectos sobre as zonas de cozedura.
•Os objectos metálicos como facas, garfos, colheres e
tampas de tacho não devem ser colocados na
superfície da placa porque podem ficar quentes.
•Não utilize uma máquina de limpar a vapor para
limpar o aparelho.
•Se a superfície de vitrocerâmica/vidro apresentar
alguma fenda, desligue o aparelho para evitar a
possibilidade de choque eléctrico.
•Em caso de quebra do vidro da placa:
–desligue imediatamente todos os queimadores e
todas as resistências eléctricas e desligue o
aparelho da alimentação eléctrica;
–não toque na superfície do aparelho;
–não utilize o aparelho.
•Se o cabo de alimentação estiver danificado, deve ser
substituído pelo fabricante, por um agente de
assistência autorizado ou por uma pessoa igualmente
qualificada, para evitar perigos.
•Se o aparelho ficar ligado directamente à alimentação
eléctrica, é necessário instalar um interruptor que
corte o contacto em todos os pólos. É necessário
garantir o corte em conformidade com as condições
especificadas para sobrevoltagem de categoria III.
Esta condição não se aplica ao cabo da ligação à
terra.
•Certifique-se de que nenhuma parte do cabo de
alimentação fica em contacto directo (pode utilizar
mangas de isolamento) com partes de aparelhos que
possam atingir temperaturas 50 °C acima da
temperatura ambiente.
