Safety and warnings

Your Galaxy has been carefully designed to operate safely during normal cooking procedures. Please keep the following guidelines in mind when you are using your Galaxy:

WARNING!

Hot Surface Hazard

Accessible parts will become hot when this oven is in use. Accessible parts may become hot when the grill is in use with the door open. To avoid burns and scalds keep children away. Do not touch hot surfaces inside the oven. Use oven mitts or other protection when handling hot surfaces such as oven shelves or dishes. Take care when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Do not touch the cooktop components, burners, trivets/pan supports or the stainless steel base when hot. Before cleaning, turn the burners off and make sure the whole cooktop is cool.

Failure to do so could result in burns and scalds.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Switch the oven off at the wall before replacing fuses or the oven lamp.

Failure to do so may result in death or electrical shock.

WARNING!

Explosion Hazard

Do not store flammable materials such as gasoline near the cooktop. Do not spray aerosols near the cooktop during use.

Failure to do so may result in death or electrical shock.

Safety and warnings

Important safety precautions

Isolating switch: make sure this oven 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 or dishes with reflective qualities on the oven floor as this will cause a heat build-up which will irreversibly damage the enamel. Do not stand on the door, or place heavy objects on it. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outside surfaces of the oven. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the oven.

Do not stand or place heavy objects on this appliance. Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the flame and the saucepan as this may cause serious damage to your cooktop. Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop 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. Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning this cooktop. Saucepan handles may be hot to touch. Ensure saucepan handles do not overhang other gas burners that are on. Keep handles out of reach of children. If the electrical supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised person. Ensure that the electrical connection plug is accessible after installation. Where this gas cooktop is installed in marine craft or in a caravan, it shall not be used as a space heater. 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. Only use the griddle on the fish burner. To prevent excessive heat build up in the cooktop area, cooking times on the griddle should be limited to 1 hour. The barbeque cover (accessory) must not be used as a cooking surface. Fat left on the lava rocks or in the tray may ignite. If flame flare-ups become excessive during cooking turn down the temperature. The barbeque grid, rock tray and lava rocks should be cleaned after every use.
