Risk of deflagration!
■
Accumulation of unburned gas in an
enclosed area carries a risk of
deflagration. Do not subject the appliance
to draughts. These might blow out the
burners. Carefully read the instructions
and warnings on the operation of gas
burners.
Risk of fire!
■
Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly.
Never leave hot fat or oil unattended.
Never use water to put out burning oil or
fat. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish
flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or
something similar.
Risk of fire!
■
When gas hotplates are in operation
without any cookware placed on them,
they can build up a lot of heat. The
appliance and the extractor hood above it
may become damaged or be set on fire.
Grease residue in the filter of the extractor
hood may ignite. Only operate the gas
burners with cookware on them.
Risk of fire!
■
The hotplates become very hot. Never
place combustible items on the hob.
Never place objects on the hob.
Risk of fire!
■
The appliance becomes very hot, and
flammable materials can easily catch fire.
Do not store or use any flammable
objects (e.g. aerosol cans, cleaning
agents) under or in the vicinity of the oven.
Do not store any flammable objects inside
or on top of the oven.
Risk of fire!
■
The rear of the appliance becomes very
hot. This may cause damage to the power
cables. Electricity and gas lines must not
come into contact with the rear of the
appliance.
Risk of burns!
■
The hotplates and surrounding area
(particularly the hob surround, if fitted)
become very hot. Never touch the hot
surfaces. Keep children at a safe distance.
Risk of burns!
■
During operation, the surfaces of the

■
Metal objects on the hob quickly become
very hot. Never place metal objects (such
as knives, forks, spoons and lids) on the
hob.
Risk of burns!
■
If the liquefied gas bottle is not upright,
liquefied propane/butane can enter the
appliance. Intense darting flames may
therefore escape from the burners.
Components may become damaged and
start to leak over time so that gas escapes
uncontrollably. Both can cause burns.
Always use liquefied gas bottles in an
upright position.
Risk of burns!
