READ AND SAVE THIS GUIDE
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of fire, injury to persons or damage when using the appliance, follow
the important safety instructions listed below. Read all the guidance before using
the appliance.
zTake care when frying: oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly on a high setting. At
extremely high temperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents a
serious fire risk.
zNever leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
zNever use your appliance as a work or storage surface.
zWear appropriate clothing — Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance.
zNever leave any objects or utensils on the appliance.
zWe recommend using plastic or wooden kitchen utensils for cooking with your cooktop.
zDo not place or leave aluminum foil on the cooktop.
zNever use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
zDo not use water on grease fires – Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
zUse only dry potholders — Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
zUse proper pan size — This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Always place small pans in the centre of the cooking zone.
zSelect utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating
element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
zDo not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop.
zDo not place or drop heavy objects on your cooktop.
zDo not stand on your cooktop.
zDo not use pans with jagged edges or drag pans across the ceramic surface as this
can scratch.
zDo not use scourers or any other harsh/abrasive cleaning agents to clean your cooktop,
as these can scratch the ceramic.
zDo not operate your cooktop by means of an external timer or separate
remote-control system.
zDo not cook on broken cooktop — If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Switch
the appliance off and contact a qualified technician immediately.
