Safety instructions for operating the appliance
Important Risk of injury and burns! Grill plate, casing and
accessory parts become hot during operation. Hot surfaces remain
hot for some time after switching off the appliance! Keep that
in mind when you touch the appliance and pay attention to
hot splashes of fat and steam during food preparation.
Therefore, act with care!
• We recommend using pot cloths and appropriate grill cutlery!
• Do not use vessels, scrapers or spatula made of inferior plastic material since
they can melt and damage your Ceran
®
grill plate. Do not use sharp objects
(e.g. forks, knives) on the grill plate and do not place aluminium foil on it.
• Do not use the surface of the appliance as a shelf or work top since it becomes
hot during use! In order to prevent fire hazards, do not place objects made
of paper, plastic, fabric or other inflammable material on the hot surface as
a matter of principle!
• Overheated fat and oil can ignite. Therefore leave food containing fat and
oil never unattended on the appliance!
• You can also put heat-resistant cooking vessels on the Ceran
®
top. Do, however,
not use vessels made of plastic, inferior enamel, porcelain or aluminium foil.
Caution – plastic handles might be damaged by the rising heat.
• Should plastic material, aluminium foil, sugar or food containing sugar melt
accidentally onto the Ceran
®
top, remove them immediately from the hot
zone using the provided cleaning scraper.
• Never splash cold water on the hot grill plate. Do not use flammable fluids
on the grill plate - the appliance is not suitable for flambéing!
• Do not transport the appliance when hot. The appliance and the accessories
must be cooled down completely before cleaning or moving!
