WARNING‒Risk of explosion!

Escaping gas may cause an explosion. WHAT
TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS OR IF THERE
ARE FAULTS IN THE GAS INSTALLATION

▶

Immediately shut off the gas supply or
close the gas cylinder valve.

▶

Immediately extinguish all naked flames
and cigarettes.

▶

Do not operate any light switches or appli­ance switches.

▶

Do not pull the plug out of the socket.

▶

Do not use any telephones or mobile
phones within the building.

▶

Open windows and ventilate the room.

▶

plier.
Escaping gas may cause an explosion. Small
amounts of gas can collect over a longer
period of time and ignite.

▶

Close the safety valve for the gas supply

when the appliance is out of use for pro-

longed periods.
Escaping gas may cause an explosion. 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.

▶

Always use liquefied gas bottles in an up-

right position.

2  Preventing material damage

▶

ATTENTION!

A build-up of heat may damage the appliance.

▶

Never cover the stainless steel hob, for example
with aluminium foil or oven protectors.

▶

Only use the accessories specified.

Heat can cause damage to adjacent appliances or kit­chen units. If the appliance is in operation for an exten­ded period, heat and moisture will be generated.

Open a window or switch on an extractor hood lead-

ing to the outside.
A build-up of heat may damage the appliance.

▶

Do not heat roasters, frying pans or grill stones us-

ing more than one burner at a time.
If a control knob is in the wrong position, this could

lead to malfunctions.

▶

Always turn the control knob to the "Off" position

when the appliance is not being used.

3  Environmental protection and saving energy

Help protect the environment by using your appliance
in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of
reusable materials properly.

3.1 Disposing of packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compat­ible and can be recycled.

▶

Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.

Information about current disposal methods are
available from your specialist dealer or local author­ity.

3.2 Saving energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less energy.

Choose a burner roughly the same size as your pan.
Centre the cookware on the hob.
Use cookware whose base diameter is the same dia­meter as the hotplate.

Tip:Cookware manufacturers often give the upper
diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the
base diameter.

Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cook-

¡

ing zones consume a lot of energy.

Cover saucepans with suitable lids.

Cooking without a lid consumes far more energy.

¡

Lift the lid as infrequently as possible.

When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.

¡

Using a glass lid

You can see into the pan through a glass lid

¡

without having to lift it.

5

en Environmental protection and saving energy

Use cookware suited to the quantity of food.

Large items of cookware containing little food need

¡

more energy to heat up.

Cook with little water.

The more water in cookware, the more energy is re-

¡

quired to heat it up.

Turn down to a lower heat setting early on. Use a suit­able ongoing cooking setting to continue cooking.

If you continue cooking with an ongoing cooking

¡

setting that is too high, you'll waste energy
