SAFETY AND WARNINGS
z
If the appliance is connected to the gas supply with a flexible hose, make sure that the
hose cannot come in contact with the bottom of the appliance or any sharp edges.
z
Ensure that the electrical connection plug is accessible after installation.
z
This appliance should be connected to a circuit that incorporates an isolating switch
providing full disconnection from the electricity supply.
z
Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the flame and the saucepan
as this may cause serious damage to your cooktop.
z
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop burners.
z
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.
z
Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning this cooktop.
z
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.
z
Do not stand or place heavy objects on this appliance.
z
After use, ensure that the burner dials are in the ‘OFF’ (o) position.
z
Where this appliance is installed in marine craft or in caravans, it shall not be used as
a space heater.
z
Take care not to drop any heavy or sharp objects on the cooktop. The glass is tough,
but sharp or heavy objects falling on it (e.g. pepper mill, heavy-based frying pan) may
crack or chip it.
z
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.
z
After having unpacked the appliance, check to ensure that it is not damaged. In case of
doubt, do not use it and consult your supplier or a professionally qualified technician.
z
Packing elements (eg plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, packing straps, etc.) should
not be left around within easy reach of children, as these may cause serious injuries.
z
Do not modify this appliance.
z
This appliance is to be serviced only by Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service
technician or qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
z
Some products are supplied with protective film on steel and aluminium parts. This film
must be removed before using the appliance.
z
Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite.
z
Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up its sides. This could discolor
and damage the utensil and you may get burned touching a hot handle.
z
Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of
the cooktop or another burner that is on.
z
Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat quickly, particularly on a high.
