Safety for children
•
Electrical and/or gas appliances are
dangerous to children. Keep children away
from the appliance when it is operating
and do not allow them to play with the
appliance.
•
Accessible parts of the hob will become
hot whilst the appliance is in use. Children
should be kept away until the appliance
has cooled down.
•
Do not place any items above the
appliance that children may reach for.
•
The packaging materials will be dangerous
for children. Keep the packaging materials
away from children. Please ensure that the
packaging material is disposed of in a

Safety when working with gas
•
Any work carried out on gas equipment
and systems may only be done by
authorised qualified persons who are
registered LP Gas installers.
•
Prior to installation, ensure that the local
distribution conditions (nature of the gas
and gas pressure) and the adjustment of
the appliance are compatible.
•
This appliance shall be installed and
connected in accordance with current
installation regulations. Particular attention
shall be given to the relevant requirements
regarding ventilation; See “
Before
installation”.
•
CAUTION:
The use of gas cooking
appliances 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 increasing the level of the
mechanical ventilation where present.
DANGER.
Risk of explosion and
poisoning!
Put out all naked flames and do
not smoke, strike matches or do
anything that could cause ignition.
Do not operate any electric
switches (e.g. light switch, TV,
computer, cooker or door bell).
Do not use a telephone or mobile
phone.
•
Gas appliances and systems must be
regularly checked for proper functioning.
The regulator, hose and its clamp must be
checked regularly and replaced within the
periods recommended by its manufacturer
or when necessary.
•
Clean the gas burners regularly. The
flames should be blue and burn evenly.
•
Good combustion is required in gas
appliances. In case of incomplete
combustion, carbon monoxide (CO) might
develop. Carbon monoxide is a colourless,
odourless and very toxic gas, which has a
lethal effect even in very small doses.
•
Request information about gas emergency
telephone numbers and safety measures
from your local gas provider in case of a
gas smell .
In the event of a pan fire
•
Switch off the Gas supply.
•
Smother the flames with a blanket or
damp cloth.
•
Burns and injuries are usually caused by
picking up the burning pan and rushing
outside with it.
•
Do NOT use water to extinguish an oil
or fat fire.
