IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
If the cooktop is covered, there is a risk that the material of the
cover will ignite, explode or melt if the cooktop is still hot or if turned
on inadvertently. Never cover the cooktop with a board, cloth or pro-
tective sheet.
When the appliance is turned on inadvertently or by mistake, or
when there is residual heat present, there is a risk of the metal items
heating up. Other materials can melt or catch fire when the appliance
is switched on. Do not store items on the cooktop.
You can burn yourself on a hot cooktop. When cooking on the ap-
pliance, protect your hands by using heat-resistant pot holders or
oven mitts. Only use dry pot holders or gloves. Wet or damp textiles
conduct heat more effectively and produce steam, which poses a
burn hazard. Be sure to keep all textiles away from the gas flames.
Do not use oversized cloths, dish towels or other similar materials.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand mixer, near the
cooktop, make sure that the power cable does not come into con-
tact with the hot cooktop. The cable's insulation could become dam-
aged.
Cookware made of plastic or aluminum foil will melt at high tem-
peratures. Do not use any plastic or aluminum foil cookware.
A ventilation hood installed above the cooktop can become dam-
aged or catch fire as a result of intense heat. Do not use the gas
burners without cookware.
Only light the gas burners after all burner parts have been properly
assembled.
If the cookware is too small, it will not sit properly on the burner
grate. If the cookware is too large, heat emitted from the bottom of
the cookware may damage the countertop, walls with poor heat-re-
sistance (e.g. paneled walls) or portions of the cooktop.
Make sure that the burner flames do not extend beyond the bot-
tom of the cookware and rise up its sides.
