Children in the household

• Take extra care when using the unit near children.
• Do not allow use of the appliance as a toy.
• Use manufacturer-recommended accessories only.
Cooking
• Never place a cooking utensil directly on the burner; always place it over the grate!
• Place the cooking utensils over the middle of the burners, otherwise they could be toppled.
• Food such as soups, sauces or beverages may heat and overflow very quickly during cooking. Proceed carefully,
use the appropriate settings and stir the food throughout the process.
•
Keep the appliance clean. Food remnants may ignite and cause a fire!
• Hot oil or fat is capable of rapid ignition. There is a risk of fire!
• Never leave hot oil or grease unattended!
• Never extinguish flaming oil with water. Use a close-fitting lid or a plate to cover the utensil. Turn off the
appliance and allow the utensil to cool down.
Hot grates
• Do not touch the hot grates. There is a risk of burning yourself!
• The grates remain hot for a certain period after cooking is completed. Do not allow children to get close to the
appliance. There is a risk of burning!
• Never lay flammable objects on the appliance. There is a risk of fire!
• Electrical cables of other appliances must not come into contact with the grates and heat zones. Heat may erode
the cabling insulation or damage the appliance.
Utensil and pan bottoms
• Do not use cooking utensils with a concave bottom (Fig. 1) or a smaller diameter of the bottom than
recommended. The cooking performance would be impaired.
WARNING!
When using smaller than recommended utensils the flame could touch the sides and the plastic handles could
melt!
• Avoid lighting a burner when the utensil is empty. An empty utensil will heat very quickly and the bottom may
be deformed. Should this unintentionally occur, do not touch the utensil; turn off the burner and allow it to
cool.
