Risk of asphyxiation!
The use of a gas cooker leads to a build-up of
heat, moisture and products of combustion in
the room where the appliance is installed.
Ensure that the installation room is well
ventilated. The natural ventilation openings
must be kept open or a mechanical ventilation
device must be provided (e.g. an extractor
hood). Intensive and persistent use of the
appliance may mean that it is necessary to
have additional ventilation (e.g. opening a
window), or more effective ventilation (e.g.
operating the existing mechanical ventilation
device at a higher setting).
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance while it is in operation.
Where this appliance is installed in a marine craft or in a caravan, for safety reasons it shall not be used as a space heater.
Unsuitable for use in a marine craft, caravan or mobile home, unless each burner is fitted with a flame guard.
Do not modify this appliance.
Close the safety valve on the gas supply line if
the cooker will not be used for a prolonged
period.
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.

cans, cleaning agents) under the appliance
or in its immediate vicinity. Never place
flammable items on or in the appliance.
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 burns!

Risk of burns!
▯ Empty cookware becomes extremely hot
when set on a gas hotplate that is in
operation. Never heat up empty cookware.
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.

uncontrollably. Both can cause burns.
Always use liquefied gas bottles in an
upright position.
