General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
General usage conditions and restrictions
• Domestic use only:
This cooktop is designed for indoor domestic use
only; commercial catering may invalidate the warranty. The cooktop can
be built into a standard kitchen cabinet or housing unit.
• Intended purpose:
Only use this cooktop for its intended purpose, in
its intended environment and as described in this manual. Any other use
may cause fire, electric shock or injury, and invalidate the warranty.
• No space heating:
Do not use this cooktop for space heating purposes.
• Ventilation:
Heat, steam and moisture will be created during use of
the cooktop. Take care to avoid injury and ensure that the kitchen is
adequately ventilated.
• Follow instructions:
Make sure to observe all rules and provisions in
this instruction manual. Do not allow anybody who is not familiar with the
contents of this manual to operate the cooktop. These instructions are
not intended to cover every possible condition and situation. As with any
electrical household appliance, use common sense and caution when
installing, operating and maintaining the cooktop.
• Power cord:
Do not allow the power cord to come into contact with
areas on the cooktop that get hot. Check the cord regularly for damage.
Do not use the appliance if the cord, or any other part of the appliance,
has been damaged. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in
order to avoid a hazard.
• Usage restriction:
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
• Children and pets:
Cooking appliances become very hot in use, therefore
ensure children and pets are kept away. If it is necessary for younger family
members to be in the kitchen, ensure that they are kept under close super-
vision
at all times
. Do not allow children to operate or play with any part
of the appliance.
CAUTION:
The cooking process has to be supervised. A
short term cooking process has to be supervised continuously.
• Pots and pans:
Do not use unstable or plastic cookware, or aluminium
foil containers on the cooktop. Do not let large cookware overlap the
bench as this could deflect heat onto the benchtop, which could damage
the surface. Pot and pan handles may become hot during use; position
handles away from the edge of the cooktop and out of children’s reach.
