Safety and warnings
Important safety instructions
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
Isolating switch: make sure this cooker is connected to a circuit which incorporates an isolating
switch providing full disconnection from the power supply.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children, or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should have a
responsible person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that they can use
the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after
cooking. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take
particular care during warmer weather.
Do not place aluminium foil, dishes, trays, water or ice on the oven floor during cooking as this
will irreversibly damage the enamel.
Do not line the walls with aluminium foil.
Do not stand on the door, or place heavy objects on it.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since
they scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the cooker.
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop elements or burners.
Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench as this can deflect heat onto your
benchtop and damage the surface.
Do not let large saucepans, frying pans or woks push any other pans aside. This could make them
unstable or deflect heat onto your benchtop and damage the surface.
Saucepan handles may be hot to touch. Ensure saucepan handles do not overhang other
elements or gas burners that are on. Keep handles out of reach of children.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised person.
This cooker is not to be used as a space heater, especially if it is installed in marine craft or in a
caravan.
MODELS WITH CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP: Do not use glassware on the ceramic glass cooktop.
Do not use pans with rough circular machined base.
MODELS WITH CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP: Some heavy-duty and nylon scourers can scratch
the ceramic glass cooktop. Always read the label to check if your scourer is suitable for cleaning
ceramic glass cooktops.
MODELS WITH GAS COOKTOP: Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the
flame and the saucepan as this may cause serious damage to your cooktop.
MODELS WITH GAS COOKTOP: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of
heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure the kitchen is well ventilated. Keep
natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor
hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening
of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increasing the level of mechanical
ventilation where present.
