Warning & Safety Instructions

Page 5

Do not connect the appliance to the mains
electricity supply by an extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger
of overheating).

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to
infestation by cockroaches or other vermin,
pay particular attention to keeping
the appliance and its surroundings in
a clean condition at all times. Any damage
which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the guarantee.

Never use an open flame

beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the

danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over
an open flame under the cooker hood.
When switched on, the cooker hood could
draw flames into the filter. Fat particles
drawn into the cooker hood present a fire
hazard.
When using the cooker hood over a
gas hob, ensure that any burners in use
are always covered by a pan. The burner
should be switched off before taking a pan

off the hob, even for brief periods.

Regulate the flames so that they do not
extend beyond the base of the pan.
If flames are not covered by a pan
excessive heat can build up in the
cooker hood with the risk of damage to
the motor unit.
Always switch the cooker hood on when
a cooking zone is in use, otherwise
condensation may collect in the hood,

which could cause corrosion.

pans and deep fat fryers etc, do not
leave the pans unattended. Never leave
an open grill unattended when grilling,
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and

could set the cooker hood on fire.

grease filters in place. This way you
will avoid the risk of grease and dirt
getting into the appliance and
hindering its smooth operation.
