WARNINGS
It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference.
Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the
appliance, always ensure that the book is left with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to
know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.
These warnings are provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or
using the appliance.
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults.
Children should not be allowed to tamper with the
controls or play with the product.
Any installation and electrical work must be under-
taken by a qualified electrician. The appliance must be
installed according to the instructions.
It is dangerous to alter the specifications or modify the
product in any way.
Do not use this appliance if it is in contact with water.
Do not operate the appliance with wet hands.
Always ensure that the control knobs are in the "OFF"
position when not in use.
Hobs become very hot with use and retain their heat
for a long period after use. You must therefore take great
care when using the appliance, supervise children at ALL
times and do NOT allow them to touch the surface or be
in the vicinity of the appliance, until it has cooled after
use. Children also can injure themselves by pulling pots
or pans off the hob.
The cooking zones heat up quickly when they are
turned on. Turn them on only when you have placed a
saucepan onto the cooking area.
Always ensure that the control knobs are in the "OFF"
position when not in use.
The residual heat indicator lights up to show if a
cooking zone is still hot.
If you use an electric socket close to the hob, take
care when using an electrical appliance that the cable
does not touch the hot surface of the hob.
Do not leave items on the hob surface. Any items you
place on the hob could be damaged if the hob is
accidentally turned on.
Unstable or misshapen pans should not be used on
the hob as unstable pans can cause an accident by
tipping or spillage.
Never leave the hob unattended when working with oil
and fats because of the danger of fire.
Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the hob
surface.
Always carefully lift saucepans on and off the hob to
prevent accident caused by spillage. Do not slide them
across the hob as this may scratch the surface. Ensure
saucepans and cooking utensils are large enough to
contain the food and prevent spillage.
Always remove any spillages from the surface of the
hob immediately, do not allow spills to dry and harden.
If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the
heated area of the hob, the handle may become hot.
Please ensure that you protect your hands before
touching the handle.
NEVER cook directly on the hob surface without a
saucepan/cooking utensil.
Sugar (solid or liquid) as well as plastic should never
get onto the hot surface of the hob, as this could result
in fissures and cracks appearing when the hob cools
down. Spills of sugar or melted plastic material must be
removed while the hob is still warm and before the
remains have set. Scrape off the remains of sugar or
plastic with a scraper. Protect your hands.
Use only pans with flat bases without rough edges, to
avoid scratching the surface of the hob.
A defective hob surface will allow liquid to penetrate
onto the electrical connections. If any cracks appear on
the hob surface, switch OFF immediately. Isolate the
appliance from the electricity supply and inform your
local Zanussi Service Force.
Certain food, plastic items and aerosols can be
affected by heat and should NOT be stored above or
below the hob unit.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair
the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious
malfunctioning. Refer to your local Zanussi Service
Force Centre. Always insist in genuine Zanussi spare
parts.
