ã=Safety warnings and advice
Please read these instructions carefully. We advise you not to
use the appliance until you have read them.
Keep the operation and installation instructions. If the appliance
is passed on to another user, please ensure that the
documentation is also passed on with it.
Check the appliance after removing it from the packaging. If it
has suffered any damage in transport, do not connect the
appliance, contact the Technical Assistance Service and
provide written notification of the damage caused, otherwise
you will lose your right to any type of compensation.
Safety instructions
This device has been designed exclusively for home use. Only
use the hob for food preparation. The appliance must not be
left unsupervised while in use.
Safe operation
To use this appliance safely, adults and children who, as a
result of
■ physical, sensory or mental disability,
■ or lack of experience or knowledge,
are not capable of using this appliance, should not do so
without the supervision of a responsible adult.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
Oil and fat too hot
Risk of fire!!
Oil or fat that is too hot quickly catches fire. Do not leave
overheated oil or fat unwatched. If the oil or fat catches fire,
never use water to put it out. Extinguish the flames with a lid or
a plate. Switch off the hotplate.
Cooking food using the bain-marie method
The bain-marie method allows you to cook food in a saucepan
submerged in a larger pan containing water. The water cooks
the food with a gentle and constant heat, rather than directly
from the heat of the hotplate. When cooking food in bain-marie,
you must prevent tins, glass containers or other material from
resting directly on the base of the pan containing the water, to
prevent the glass on the hob and the pan from breaking due to
hotplate reheating.
Hot hob
Risk of burns!!
Do not touch hot hotplates. Keep children away from the hob.
Risk of fire!!
■ Never place flammable objects on the hob
■ Do not keep flammable items or aerosols in the drawers
beneath the hob.
Wet hotplates and pan bases
Risk of injury!!
Liquid between the bottom of the pan and the hob can produce
steam pressure. Which may cause the pan to jump. Always
ensure that the hotplate and the base of the pan are kept dry.
Cracks in the hob
Risk of electric shock!!
Disconnect the appliance from the mains if the hob is broken or
cracked.
Contact the Technical Assistance Service.
