Protection from burning and
scalding
The surface of the appliance is hot
when in use, and remains hot for
quite a while after being switched off.
There is a danger of burning until the
residual heat indicators go out.
For added protection it is advisable
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them 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 heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob as pressure will
build up in the tin and it can explode.
This could result in injury and scalding
or damage.
Do not use the hob as a resting
place for anything else. 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 appliance, e.g.
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This
could be a fire hazard if the appliance
is switched on by mistake.
Never leave the appliance
unattended when cooking with oil
or fat as these are fire hazards if
overheated. Very hot oil can catch fire
and could even set a cooker hood
above on fire. Always heat fat slowly,
watching as it heats.
If, despite this, 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 flambé under a cooker
hood. The flames could set the
cooker hood on fire.
