Safety with children

The appliance is only intended for
use by adults who have read these

operating instructions.

This appliance is not a toy! To
avoid the risk of injury keep

children well away and do not let them
play with it or use the controls. They will
not understand the potential dangers
posed by it. They should be supervised
whenever you are working in the
kitchen.

Older children may use the
appliance only when its operation

has been clearly explained to them,
and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
Supervise its use by the elderly or
infirm.

The appliance gets hot when in
use and remains hot for quite a

while after being switched off. To
safeguard against burning, keep
children well away from the appliance
at all times.

Do not store anything which might
arouse a child's interest in storage

areas above or next to the appliance.
Otherwise they could be tempted into
climbing onto the appliance with the
risk of burning themselves.

Keep all pans out of reach of
children. Turn pan handles inwards

away from the edge of the hob. Danger
of burning or scalding.

Packaging, e.g. cling film,
polystyrene and plastic wrappings

must be kept out of the reach of babies
and young children. Danger of
suffocation. Dispose of or recycle all
packaging safely as soon as possible.

Before disposing of an old
appliance, disconnect it from the

gas and electricity supplies. Cut off and
render any plug useless. Cut off the
cable directly behind the appliance to
prevent misuse. This should be done
by a competent person.
