shock or fire

General warnings

•  This appliance is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and 

knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or 

instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person 

responsible for their safety.

•  Young children should be supervised to ensure they  

do not play with this appliance.

•  During use this appliance becomes hot. Care should be 

taken to avoid touching hot external and internal surfaces 

when in use. Use oven gloves. Children should be kept 

away to avoid burns and scalds.

•  This appliance must NOT be used as a space heater.
•  Keep vents clear of obstructions.
•  In order to avoid a fire, the appliance must be kept clean.
•  Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the appliance 

when it is in operation.

•  Do not store flammable materials in or under the

Cooktops (generally)

•  Do not allow pots to boil dry, as damage to both pan 

and cooktop may result.

•  Do not operate the cooktop for an extended period of 

time without a pot or pan on the hotplate.

•  Do not allow large cookware to overhang the cooktop 

onto the adjacent benchtop. This will cause scorching to 

the benchtop surface.

•  Do not allow cooking pots or pans to intrude into the area 

which is close to the controls.

•  Ensure burner caps and trivets are properly located.  

(see Figure1)

•  For maximum stability, ensure pots and pans are centrally 

located on the trivets.

•  Handles should be turned away from the front of the 

bench to avoid accidents.

•  Only models fitted with flame safeguard can be used in 

marine craft, caravans or mobile homes.
