Warning and Safety instructions
10
Correct use

The wok gets hot when in use and remains hot for some time after
being switched off. The risk of burning is present until the residual
heat indicators have gone out.

Overheated fat and oil can ignite and catch fire. Never leave the
wok unattended. Do not attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with
water.
Switch the wok off and carefully smother the flames with a fire
blanket or a damp tea towel

Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do
not flambé under a cooker hood.

Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the wok. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.

Do not heat an empty pan.

Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the wok, as pressure will build up in the container which could
cause it to explode.

Do not cover the wok, e.g. with a cover, a cloth or protective foil.
The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the appliance is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.

When the wok is switched on either deliberately or by mistake, or
when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of any metal
items left on the wok heating up, with the danger of burning. De-
pending on the material, other items left on the appliance could also
melt or catch fire. Do not use the wok as a resting place. Switch the
wok off after use.
