SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
EN
Using energy in a responsible way not only saves money but also helps the environment. So let’s save
energy! And this is how you can do it:
■ Use appropriate cookware: flat and thick bottom pots and pans will reduce power consumption by up to one
third. Do not forget to use lid to reduce power consumption by four times!
■ Select properly sized cookware: make sure the diameter of the pan or pot is not smaller than the size of the
burner.
■ Keep the burner surfaces and the cookware bottoms clean: Residues hinder heat transfer, and lasting contami
-
nation can be removed only by extremely harmful chemicals. Particularly, the flame slots of the burners must be
kept clean at all times.
■ Do not put up the cookware lids unless really necessary.
■ Do not install the cooktop adjacently to fridges / freezers: this increases power consumption of the cooling
appliances.

• Do not leave children unattended in an area where the appliance
is in use.
• Do not allow persons of limited physical, sensual, or psychological
capabilities, or persons whose experience in operating similar
appliances is limited to operate the cooktop, unless if attended by
(adult) caretakers.
• Make sure no part of the power cord comes in contact with hot parts
of the hob.
• Leave sufficient space around the socket to ensure the power plug
is accessible easily after installation.
• Do not install the hob near cooling appliances.
• Do not leave the hob unattended while in use. Boil-overs cause
smoking, and greasy spill-overs may ignite presenting a fire risk.

to use your hob before a Gas Safe engineer has repaired it.
