 Important safety information

m

Warning – Risk of burns! 

The appliance becomes hot during 
operation. Allow the appliance to cool 
down before cleaning.

Risk of burns! 

The hotplates and surrounding area 
(particularly the hob surround, if fitted) 
become very hot. Never touch the hot 
surfaces. Keep children at a safe distance.

Risk of burns! 

The accessible parts become very hot 
when in operation. Never touch hot parts. 
Keep children at a safe distance.

Risk of burns! 

When the appliance cover is closed, this 
leads to a build-up of heat. Only operate or 
switch on the appliance when the appliance 
cover is open. Do not use the appliance 
cover for keeping warm or setting down. 
Only close the appliance cover once the 
appliance has cooled down.

Caution!
Damage to the appliance

Remove spilled liquids before opening the 
appliance cover.

Risk of burns! 

Empty cookware becomes extremely hot 
when set on a gas hotplate that is in 
operation. Never heat up empty cookware.

Risk of burns! 

If the liquefied gas bottle is not upright, 
liquefied propane/butane can enter the 
appliance. Intense darting flames may 
therefore escape from the burners. 
Components may become damaged and 
start to leak over time so that gas escapes 
uncontrollably. Both can cause burns. 
Always use liquefied gas bottles in an 
upright position.
