Important
caution
• do not pull the power supply cable or the appliance
itself to disconnect the plug from the socket.
• do not expose the appliance to weather agents (raing,
sun, etc)
• do not allow unsupervised children or inexperienced
persons to use the appliance.
13 Always switch off the electrical supply to the cooker and
allow it to cool down before carrying out any cleaning
operations etc.
14 Remember if you are discarding any domestic appliance
with which children etc. may play, make it safe by removing
the Mains Cable from it, after first disconnecting the
electricity supply. Remove glass parts where possible,
and consider sharp edges etc. which may now be
exposed.
15 Oven gloves or similar protection should be used when
moving containers in or out of hot ovens and care should
be taken to avoid contact with hot surfaces of exposed
skin on wrists or arms.
16 One of the commonest types of accident involving cooking
appliances is burns to tabies and young children. These
can occur by:
• Touching hot parts
• Being splashed with hot liquids
• By pulling projecting pan handles and tipping hot
liquids over themselves
17 Please remember that a small child’s skin is far more
sensitive and therefore more easily burnt than an adult.
You are, therfore, strongly advised to keep babies and
young children well clear of this appliance during use and
whilst it is cooling down after use.
18 Unstable or out of shape pans should not be used on the
hob in case they cause spillage of hot liquids.
19 Pans must only be placed in the centre of electric rings
and of grids on gas burners. Placing pans off centre or to
one side may cause spillage.
20 Special care should be taken when using chip pans etc.
in order to avoid splashing or spillage of hot oil. They
should not be used unattended since overheated oil may
boil over and ignite on the hot heating element or gas
flame.
21 Some parts of the appliance, in particular the hot plates,
remain heated for a long time after use. Make sure not to
touch them.
22 Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol or gasoline,
etc. near the appliance when it is in use.
23 Make sure the knobs are in the “•”/” ¡ ” position when the
appliance is not in use.
24 Gas appliances require regular air exchange to
ensure trouble-free performance. When installing the
cooker, follow the instructions provided in the
paragraph on “Positioning” the appliance.
25 When you are using the grill or the oven, some parts of
the door can become very hot. Keep children away from
these.
