Using The Hob
DEEP FAT FRYING SAFELY
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one third full of oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period.
4. Never try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This lowers the fat
temperature too much resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, then lower it slowly into the hot oil or
fat. Frozen foods in particular will cause the fat to froth and spit if added to quickly.
6. Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free of streaks of oil or fat.
NEVER allow aluminium foil to be in contact with the hob surface when in use.
DO NOT allow young children near to the cooker when it is in use
as the surfaces get extremely hot!

In the unlikely event of a crack (no matter what size) appearing in the ceramic surface,
switch off the electricity supply to your appliance IMMEDIATELY and
contact your service centre.
DO NOT USE THE APPLIANCE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED
When cooking food that contains sugar (most food) or syrup, use a utensil which is large
enough to prevent boil over or spillage. Sugar spillage will permanently damage the hob
and therefore should be cleaned off with care immediately. If sugar spillage has occurred,
remove it as long as it is still hot with a metal safety razor scraper. This will avoid any damage.
NEVER LET IT COOL BEFORE REMOVING.
