1 Safety precautions
7
▪ Moving pans and cookware around
causes scratches. This can be largely
prevented by lifting pans and cookware
up and then placing them down in posi-
tion.
▪ The hob is designed to be used – signs
of use, such as scratches or the wear
and tear from pans and cookware, are
normal. The more intensively it is used,
the greater the signs of use; however,
the appliance remains in perfect work-
ing order and therefore does not give a
right of complaint. Safety is guaranteed
at all times.
1.5 Warnings
Please observe the notes on use in
the
«Cookware» (see page 10)
section.
▪ It is normal for a new appliance to give
off an unpleasant smell when it is first
used. It does not indicate the existence
of a danger or a defect. The smell will
fade over time.
▪
The colour of the flame can sometimes
be orange. This is normal. It occurs
when there is dust in the air, when
some liquid spills over, etc.
▪ If a burner flame accidentally goes out,
turn the control knob for the burner to
«Off» and wait at least one minute be-
fore reigniting it.
▪ A noise can be heard a few seconds
after the burner is turned on and off.
This is normal. It indicates that the
safety system has opened or shut down
the flow of gas.
▪ Ensure that the appliance is kept clean.
If the ignition sparkers or thermo-
couples are dirty, the burners will not
light or work properly. Clean the ignition
sparkers and thermocouples periodic-
ally using a small non-wire brush. En-
sure that the ignition sparkers and ther-
mocouples receive no hard knocks.
