Injury prevention
Children should not be left unattended in an area where the hob is in use. Never
allow children to sit or stand on any part of the hob.
Caution: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the hob.
Children climbing on the hob to reach these items could be injured.
Use the Child Safety Lock to prevent children from turning on the heaters or
changing the settings. See “Child Safety lock” for more information.
Keep all pots and pans out of children’s reach. Danger of burning or scalding.
Do not touch the hob or the surrounding areas during or immediately after use.
The hob may be hot even though it is dark in color. Wait until the residual heat
indicators go out.
Protect your hands with insulated gloves or potholders when using the hob. Use
only dry, heat resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot sur-
faces can result in steam burns. Do not let the potholder touch the hot heating
elements. Do not use towels or other bulky items near the hob.
Pot and pan handles should be turned inward and not extend over the countertop
Never leave a hob unattended at high settings or when cooking with oil or fat.
Overheated oil could ignite. Always heat oil slowly, monitoring it as it heats.
When frying food make sure that the food is as dry as possible before placing
it in oil. Moisture can cause hot oil to splatter and boil over. At high settings, be
cautious of splattering grease or boiling over liquids which may produce smoke.
