• Clean your appliance regularly This
will prolong it's good looks and en-
hance hygiene levels.
• Use flat bottomed pots and pans
when cooking on the hotplates. This
will maximise efficiency and reduce
electricity costs.
• Keep children well away from the
cooking appliance. Explain the dan-
gers to them. Being safety conscious
is being safe, not sorry.
• Supervise the cooking process. Over-
cooked or spoiled food is wasteful.
• Leave about a 40mm. air gap be-
tween baking tins and the oven
walls. Adequate air circulation is im-
portant for good baking results.
• Get into the habit of wearing oven
gloves when handling utensils in a
hot oven. This will help to avoid ac-
cidental burns.
• Partly slide out the oven shelf before
removing hot dishes from the oven.
This will prevent accidental contact
with the hot oven sides.
Do
Don’t
• Use pots which are smaller than the
hotplate diameter. This wastes elec-
tricity and allows the pot handles to
overheat.
• Leave the appliance unattended es-
pecially when grilling. This is good
practice and avoids accidents.
• Use abrasive cleaning materials as
these will scratch the surfaces and
fascia graphics.
• Allow fat splashes to dry and bake
onto the stove/oven surface before
cleaning them. It is easier to clean
spills while they are still slightly
warm and soft.
• Put baking tins on the floor of the
oven. This will prevent heat circula-
tion and spoil baking results.
• Use the appliance to heat the home.
Neither the hotplates nor the oven
were designed for this purpose and
damage could occur.
• Allow pot handles to overhang the
front of the appliance. Children
might be tempted to grab them with
harmful consequences.
