Correct use
~
The gas hob gets hot when in use
and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off. Do not touch it
whilst it could still be hot.
~
If a cooker hood is installed above
the gas hob, ensure that the burners
are always covered with a pan when in
use. Otherwise flames could reach the
cooker hood, parts of which could then
be damaged or set on fire.
~
Do not leave the gas hob
unattended whilst it is being used. Oil
and fat are potential fire hazards as
they can ignite if overheated.
~
If oil or fat does catch fire, do not
attempt to put out the flames with water.
Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan
lid, damp towel or similar to smother the
flames.
~
Do not use the gas hob to heat up
the room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.
~
Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.
~
For added protection, it is advisable
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the gas hob. Ensure
that they do not come into contact with
the flames. Do not use large cloths, tea
towels or similar as the ends could
touch the flames and catch fire. Take
care not to let the gloves get damp or
wet, as this causes heat to transfer
through the material more quickly with
the risk of scalding or burning yourself.
~
Do not use the gas hob as a resting
place for anything. The article could
melt or catch fire if residual heat is still
present or if the appliance is switched
on by mistake.
~
Do not cover the gas hob with, e. g.
with a hob cover, a cloth or protective
foil. The material could catch fire,
shatter or melt if the appliance is
switched on by mistake or if the hob is
still warm.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at high
temperatures and could catch fire.
~
Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
~
Make sure all the components of the
gas burners have been correctly
assembled before switching on.
