Important Notice

Please note there may be a cooling fan
fi tted to this appliance. It is an integral
part of its safety and functionality. When
the appliance is installed care must be
taken that the cooling fans performance
is not impeded by any objects coming
into contact with it. (Installation pipes,
leads etc) Care must also be taken that
there is suffi cient air fl ow at the rear of
the appliance for the cooling fan to run at
its optimum effi ciency, (particularly built
in appliances) see clearance dimensions
in the installation section of the booklet.
During use the appliance must never be
disconnected from the mains supply as
this will seriously affect the safety and
performance of the appliance, particularly
in relation to surface temperatures
becoming hot and gas operated parts
not working effi ciently. The cooling fan is
designed to run on after the control knob
has been switched off to keep the front of
the appliance and the controls cool until
the appliance has naturally cooled itself.

Electric Hob
Do

• Always ensure that pan bases are
dry and fl at before using them on the
hob.

• Always position pans over the centre
of the heat zone, and turn the
handles to a safe position so they
cannot be knocked or grabbed.

• Always use pans which are no smaller
than 100mm (4”), or no larger than
250mm (10”).

• Always match the size of pan to the
size heat zone – do not use large
pans on small zones or vice versa.

• Always lift pans onto and off the
hob, rather than sliding them across
the surface, to avoid marks and
scratches.

Do Not

If the appliance has a glass hobtop, never
drag pans across the ceramic surface as
this will lead to scratches and damage.

• Never use double pans, rim-based
pans, old or misshapen pans, or
any pan that is not stable on a fl at
surface.

• Never leave cooking fat, or oil, unat­tended.

• Never use commercial simmering
aids, or heat diffusers, as they create
excessive heat and can damage the
surface of the hob.

• Never use the hob for any other
purpose than cooking food.

• Plastic cooking utensils can melt if
they come into contact with a warm
hob. Never leave them close to, or
on top of the hob.

SAFETY

• Never leave any cook zone on with­out a pan covering it. This causes a
fi re hazard.

• Never use the hob surface as a
chopping board or food preparation
area, as this may lead to it becoming
damaged.

• Never put metal cooking utensils,
cutlery, knives or other metal objects
on the hob. They could become hot
if they are near a cooking area which
is in use.

• Never use the hob if the surface is
cracked, broken or shattered. This
creates a high risk of injury. Switch
off the electric supply and call for a
service engineer’s visit.

• Never stare at the halogen elements
(if fi tted). This may impair your vi-
sion.

• Never leave aluminium foil on the
hob top, it refl ects heat back into the
element which leads to damage.

• Never heat up a sealed tin of food on
the hob, as it may explode.

• Never leave pans overhanging the
edge of the hob. The surface of the
hob is smooth. If pans are knocked
they may move on the hob top.

Fire Safety Advice

Most kitchen fi res occur when people are
distracted or leave things unattended, so
remember:

If you’re called away from the hob - by
the phone or someone at the door, either
take pans off the heat, or switch off your
hob.

Don’t let yourself be distracted while
cooking.

If you do have a fi re in the kitchen, don’t
take any risks - get everyone out of your

home and call the Fire Brigade

If a pan catches fi re:

• Do not move it - it is likely to be
extremely hot.

• Turn off the heat if it’s safe to do so

- but never lean over a pan to reach
the controls.

• If you have a fi re blanket, put it over
the pan.

• If you have put the fi re out, leave the
pan to cool completely.

Deep-fat frying presents more dan­gers in your kitchen.

• Never fi ll a chip pan (or other deep-
fat fryer) more than one-third full of
oil

• Do not use a fi re extinguisher on a
pan of oil - the force of the extin­guisher can spread the fi re and cre-
ate a fi reball.

If you have an electrical fi re in the
kitchen:

• Pull the plug out, or switch off the
power at the fuse box - this may be
enough to stop the fi re immediately

• Smother the fi re with a fi re blanket,
or use a dry powder or carbon diox­ide extinguisher

• Remember: never use water on an
electrical or cooking oil fi re.

SAFETY
