WARNINGS SAFETY RULES
This appliance must be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with the
current regulations in the country where the appliance is installed and must only be
used in a well ventilated area. Read the guides before installing and using this appliance.
Appliance categories (see pt. 1.2, page 46 “Installation”):
-Class 1: Free-standing cooking appliance not normally in direct contact with the kitchen
units or the surrounding walls.
-Class 2: Cooking appliance that can be integrated between two kitchen units, whose walls
can be in direct contact with the surrounding units. This type of appliance can be in contact
with only one kitchen unit during installation.
-Class 2 / Sub-Class 1: Class 2 appliance that can be free-standing or installed so that the
side panels are accessible.
Before installing the appliance, ensure that the local gas supply conditions (gas type
and pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
The adjustment conditions for this appliance are indicated on the label at the back of
the hob and on the test certificate.
This appliance is not intended to be connected to a ventilation system or a ventilation shaft
for combustion products. It should be installed and connected in accordance with the
current regulations, and special attention should be paid to the applicable ventilation
regulations.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the
room where it is installed. Ensure that the room is well ventilated: keep natural
ventilation holes open and install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood).
Prolonged or intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, e.g. by
opening a window, or for more effective ventilation, by increasing the power of the
mechanical ventilation system installed.
When you first use your cooker it may give off a slight odour. This should stop after a little
use.
Please note
The appliance and its accessible parts become hot during use. Care should be taken
to avoid touching heating elements inside the oven.
Children less than 8 years of age shall be kept away unless continuously supervised.
Keep young children at a safe distance.
Do not leave children alone and without supervision near the appliance.

WARNINGS. SAFETY RULES
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 use of the
appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and maintenance by the user must not be carried out by children unless
they are 8 years of age or older and supervised by an adult.
WARNING: The accessible parts can become hot during use. Keep young children
well away.
Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children less than 8 years of age.
WARNING: Make sure that the appliance is disconnected from the power supply
before replacing the bulb to avoid any risk of an electric shock.
If you smell gas:
Don’t turn electric switches on or off.

Don’t smoke.

Don’t use naked flames.

Do turn off the gas at the meter or cylinder.

Do open doors and windows to get rid of the gas.

Call your gas supplier.
The cooker should be serviced by a qualified service engineer and only approved
spare parts used. Have the installer show you the location of the cooker control switch.
Make a note of this location as you may find it useful at a later date.
Always allow the cooker to cool and then switch off at the mains before cleaning or
carrying out any maintenance work, unless specified otherwise in this guide or in an
“Instructions for use” guide.
All parts of the cooker become hot with use and will retain heat even after you have
stopped cooking. Take care when touching cooker, to minimize the possibility of burns,
always be certain that the controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool before
attempting to clean the cooker.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface, be
careful to avoid steam burns. Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if applied to a
hot surface.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooker.

WARNINGS. SAFETY RULES
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the cooker while it is on.
Do not store or use combustible materials or flammable liquids in the vicinity of this
appliance.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as they will ignite if they get too hot. Use a
deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
Never leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep
fry pans should be only one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spill
over when food is added. If you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them
together before heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
When the oven is on, do not use the top of the extractor grill (the slots along the back of
the cooker) for warming plates or dishes, drying tea towels or softening butter. Never
obstruct the extractor slots.
Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
The oven should NOT be used for heating the kitchen, not only does this waste fuel but
the control knobs may become overheated.
When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door open for longer than necessary.
Please make sure your cooker is unpacked completely before use.
Destroy the carton and plastic bags after unpacking the range. Never allow children to play
with packaging material.
Never leave any items on the range cooktop. The hot air from an oven vent may ignite
flammable items and may increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause them to
burst.
Several types of plastic are combustible, and most of them can be damaged by heat.
Remove any objects made from paper, plastic or fabrics (such as cooking books, plastic
cooking utensils, towels, etc.) as well as flammable liquids from any parts of the range
liable to get hot.
Preferably, there should be no cupboards or shelving above the appliance. In the event
of cupboards/shelving being above the appliance, make sure that they hold objects seldom
used, which can be safely kept in a place exposed to the heat generated by the appliance.

WARNINGS. SAFETY RULES
Never cover the slits, apertures or holes in the bottom part of the appliance, and never cover
the grills with products such as aluminium foil; doing so would prevent air circulation inside
the oven and the aluminium foil could cause heat to build up leading to a risk of fire.
Do not use the oven for storage.
Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near the cooktop burners. This
includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such as cookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as
flammable liquids.
Never touch the burner or the surfaces around the burner.
Note also that the burner can remain hot for a certain time even after it has been turned off.
Surfaces located around the gas burner can become sufficiently hot to cause burns.
DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE
OVEN.
Oven heating elements may be hot though they are dark in colour. Interior surfaces of an oven
may become hot enough to cause burns.
Likewise, make sure that there is no contact between clothing and other flammable products
and heating elements or appliance internal surfaces.
Wear appropriate clothing.
Do not use loose-fitting clothing (sleeves, etc.) when operating the appliance.
Take care when trying to reach objects above the top of the cooktop.
Flammable products can ignite on contact with a burner flame or a warm surface, leading to
serious burns.
Use only oven gloves or kitchen gloves that are dry.
Using wet gloves on warm surfaces can lead to burns caused by the vapour. Avoid all contact
between oven gloves and warm heating elements.
Never use a towel, thick cloth or similar instead of an insulating glove; they may catch
fire on contact with a hot surface.
Never operate the appliance using wet hands.
