in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated
especially when the appliance is in use: keep natural ventilation
holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical
extractor hood).
• The burner components are hot during and immediately after use.
Do not touch them, and avoid contact with non-heat resistant
materials.
• Never immerse hot burner caps and pan supports in cold water.
Rapid cooling can damage the enamel.
• The distance between the pan and a knob or non-heat resistant
wall should always be greater than one centimetre. In the case
of smaller distances, the high temperature may cause the knobs
or wall to discolour and/or deform.
• Always use the pan supports and suitable cookware.
• Always place the pan on the pan support. Placing the pan directly
on the burner cap can result in dangerous situations.
• Aluminium trays or foil are not suitable as cooking utensils. They
can burn into the burner caps and pan supports.
• The hob can only function effectively if the burner components
have been assembled using the guide ridges. Ensure that the
pan supports lie properly against each other and flat on the drip
tray. Only then can the pans be positioned stably.
• Keep oven gloves or oven cloths away from the flame.
• Do not use griddle plates or baking plates.
• Clean the burner parts regularly for the safe and correct operation
of the burners.
• Missing rubber feet from the pan supports can cause scratches
on the drip tray or poor combustion of the burner. If the rubber
feet are missing, please contact our service department.
