This appliance is designed for domestic
cooking only. Use for any other purpose
could invalidate any warranty or liability
claim.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the
production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is
well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes
open or install a mechanical ventilation device,
(mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may
call for additional ventilation, for example
opening a window, or more effective ventilation,
for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present.
The cooker should be serviced by a qualified
service engineer and only approved spare parts
used. Have the installer show you the location of
the cooker control switch. Mark it for easy
reference. Always allow the cooker to cool and
then switch off at the mains and before cleaning
or carrying out any maintenance work, unless
specified otherwise in this guide.
All parts of the cooker become hot with
use and will retain heat even after you
have stopped cooking.
Take care when touching cooker, to minimize the
possibility of burns, always be certain that the
controls are in the OFF position and that it is cool
before attempting to clean the cooker.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable -
using damp gloves might result in steam
burns when you touch a hot surface.
Never operate the cooker with wet
hands.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place
of a glove. They might catch fire if they touch a
hot surface.
Clean with caution. If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
surface, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Some cleansers can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do not use unstable saucepans and position the
handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
Babies, toddlers and young children
should not be allowed near the cooker at
any time. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance. Teach them not to play with
controls or any other part of the cooker.
Never store anything of interest to children in
cabinets above a cooker - children climbing on
the cooker to reach them could be seriously
injured.

In the interests of hygiene and safety the cooker
should be kept clean at all times as a build up in
fats and other food stuff could result in a fire.

curtains etc. a safe distance away from your

tray. If available use a multipurpose dry chemical
