Safety The safety aspects of this appliance comply with accepted technical standards and IEC Standards. However, as the manufacturer we also believe it is our responsibility to familiarize you with the following safety instructions. Electrical Safety • The installation and connection of the new appliance must only be carried out by qualified personnel. • Repairs to the appliance are only to be carried out by approved service persons.
Child Safety WARNING: Accessible parts may become hot during use. Young children should be kept away. This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. The cooking zones will become hot when you cook. Therefore, always keep small children away from the appliance.
Safety Safety When Cleaning • Always switch off the appliance before cleaning. • For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high pressure cleaner. • Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions in this manual. • Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.
Disposal of old appliances Warning: Before disposing of old appliances please make them inoperable so that they cannot be the source of danger. To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the appliance from the house circuitry. To protect the environment, it is important that worn out appliances are disposed of in the correct manner. • The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
Suitable Kitchenware Pots and pans The better the pot, the better the cooking results. • You can recognize good pots and pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible. • When buying new pots and pans, pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Maunfacturers often only state the diameter of the rim. • Pots with aluminum, or copper bases can cause metallic discolouring on the ceramic glass surface which is very difficult or impossible to remove.
Tips on saving energy You will save valuable energy by observing the following points: • Always position pots and pans before you switch on the cooking zone. • Dirty cooking zones and pot bases increase the power consumption. • Whenever possible, always have the lid firmly placed on the pots and pans so that they are completely covered. • Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to use the residual heat for keeping food warm or for melting purposes.
