1 Safety precautions
▪ Do not operate the individual cooking zones of the cooking surface without
a pan on them or with an empty pan on them so as to avoid damaging the
appliance or the kitchen fittings through a build-up of heat. Avoid open fires
with oil, gas, wood and coal fired cookers.
▪ Ensure there is adequate ventilation when the extractor fan is on so as to
avoid creating a disturbing underpressure in the kitchen and to achieve op-
timal air extraction.
▪ Avoid a cross-current of air, which could blow the cooking vapours over the
cooking area.
▪ If other appliances – fired by gas or other fuels – are being used at the
same time, ensure that there is a sufficient supply of fresh air. This does not
apply to air recirculation appliances.
▪ If other firing systems are being used at the same time (e.g. wood, gas, oil
or coal fired heating appliances), safe operation is only possible providing a
room negative pressure of 4Pa (0.04mbar) is not exceeded at the location
of the appliance. Risk of toxic fumes! An adequate flow of fresh air must be
guaranteed e.g. via non-closable openings in doors or windows and in com-
bination with an air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical means.
▪ When carrying out maintenance work on the appliance, including replacing
the light bulb, cut off the electricity supply to the appliance: remove the
screw fuse from the holder or switch the circuit breaker off, or disconnect
from the mains supply.
▪ When cleaning the appliance make sure no water gets inside it. Use a mod-
erately damp cloth. Do not spray the inside or outside of the appliance with
water. Do not use a steam cleaner. If water gets inside the appliance, it can
cause damage.
▪ Failure to follow the cleaning instructions may cause a fire hazard.
▪ Do not operate the appliance using an external time switch or a separate re-
mote control system.
