Warning – WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL 

GAS! 

Escaping gas may cause an explosion.

If you smell gas or notice any faults in the 
gas installation:

Do not light any appliance.

Do not touch any electrical switch; do not 
use any phone in the building.

Immediately call your gas supplier from a 
neighbour's phone. Follow the gas 
supplier's instructions.

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call 
the fire department.

Warning – Risk of asphyxiation! 

The use of a gas cooker leads to a build-up of 
heat, moisture and products of combustion in 
the room where the appliance is installed. 
Ensure that the installation room is well 
ventilated. The natural ventilation openings 
must be kept open or a mechanical ventilation 
device must be provided (e.g. an extractor 
hood). Intensive and persistent use of the 
appliance may mean that it is necessary to have 
additional ventilation (e.g. opening a window), 
or more effective ventilation (e.g. operating the 
existing mechanical ventilation device at a 
higher setting).

m

Warning – Risk of fire! 

Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never 
leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use 
water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch 
off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully 
using a lid, fire blanket or something 
similar. 

Risk of fire! 

The hotplates become very hot. Never 
place combustible items on the hob. Never 
place objects on the hob.

Risk of fire! 

The appliance becomes very hot and 
flammable materials could catch fire. Never 
store or use flammable objects (e.g. spray 
cans, cleaning agents) under the appliance 
or in its immediate vicinity. Never place 
flammable items on or in the appliance. 

Risk of fire! 

When gas hotplates are in operation 
without any cookware placed on them, they 
can build up a lot of heat. The appliance 
and the extractor hood above it may 
become damaged or be set on fire. Grease 
residue in the filter of the extractor hood 
may ignite. Only operate the gas burners 
with cookware on them.
