and cover the fl ame with for example
a lid or a fi re blanket.
■
Never store objects on the cooking
area.
■
The cooking process must be super-
vised. A short term cooking process
has to be supervised continuously.
■
Only protective hob grilles or hob cov-
ers made by the hob manufactur-
er, approved protective hob grilles or
covers listed in the user manual, or
pre-installed protective hob grilles or
hob covers may be used. The use of
unsuitable protective hob grilles or
hob covers may lead to accidents.
■
Always switch the hob off completely
after cooking.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
Improper use may damage the appli-
ance or cooking utensils.
■
The cooking zones may become dam-
aged if they are operated without
cookware or with empty cookware.
■
Although fi re-proof glass dishes are
also suitable for the solid plates, they
are poor heat conductors. Larger
glass containers may also suffer ther-
mal stress, leading to breakage.
■
Wipe the solid plate and the base of
the pots prior to use to wipe away
any dirt which may cause scratches.
■
Do not use any aluminium foil or
plastic containers to cook on the solid
plates as they can melt.
■
Metallic objects (such as knives, forks,
spoons and lids) should not be placed
on the solid plates since they can get
hot.
■
Use the hob as a work surface or
somewhere to place objects only
once the solid plates have completely
cooled off. Otherwise, materials sen-
sitive to heat, such as plastic dishes,
could become damaged.
Using the oven safely
CAUTION
Health hazard!
The water that melts during defrosting
can contain harmful bacteria, especial-
ly with meat and poultry.
■
Do not defrost meat, poultry and fi sh
in oven mode.
■
Pour defrost water away. Do not use
it for any other purpose.
■
Thoroughly clean the crockery you
have used.
Risk of burns!
The oven becomes hot during use. You
can burn yourself on heating elements,
the cooking compartment, the cooked
food and accessories.
■
Particular care should be taken to
avoid touching heating elements in-
side the oven.
■
Only ever operate the oven with the
oven door closed.

When opening the oven door, stand

Allow the oven to cool down com-
pletely before cleaning.
