SAFETY AND WARNINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
yRead all the instructions before using the appliance. Use the appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in these instructions.
yProper installation – be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. A risk of tip-over exists when the appliance is not installed in
accordance with the installation instructions.
yDo not operate the appliance if it is damaged or not working properly. If you received
a damaged product, contact your dealer or installer immediately.
yBe sure to have the installer show you where and how to turn off the power supply to
the range (ie location of the main fuse or circuit breaker panel).
yDo not leave children alone – children should not be left alone or unattended in
the area where the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to play with
the appliance or to sit or stand on any part of the appliance. Children of less than
8 years old must be kept away from the appliance unless continuously supervised.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above, and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of
the appliance in a safe way and they understand the hazards involved. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be done by children without supervision.
yCaution – for safety reasons, do not store items of interest to children in cabinets
above a range or at the back of the range – children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
yWear proper apparel – loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while
using the appliance.
yUser servicing – do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically
recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician. Technicians must disconnect the appliance from the power supply before
any servicing.
yNever leave any objects or utensils on the appliance.
yDo not place or leave any magnetisable objects (eg credit cards, memory cards) or
electronic devices (eg computers, MP3 players) near the appliance, as they may be
affected by its electromagnetic field.
yWe recommend using plastic or wooden kitchen utensils for cooking with your
induction cooktop.
yStorage in or on an appliance – flammable materials should not be stored in the oven,
warming drawer or on or near the cooktop surface.
yDo not place or leave aluminum foil on the cooktop.
yNever leave any objects or utensils on the cooktop.
yUse care when opening the oven door – let hot air or steam escape before removing
or replacing food.
yKeep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
yKeep rugs and mats well clear of the base of the range.
yPlacement of oven shelves – always position shelves in the desired location while the
oven is cool (before preheating). If a shelf must be removed while the oven is hot, do
not let oven mitts or potholder contact the base of the oven or hot heating elements
in the oven.
yDo not clean the oven gasket or use any oven-cleaning products on it. It is essential
for a good seal, which ensures that the oven operates efficiently. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage or move it.
yBe careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets above the appliance.
