IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Using of a gas cooktop causes heat, moisture and products of
combustion to build up in the room in which it is installed. Make sure
that your kitchen is well ventilated, especially when the appliance is
in use: keep any natural means of ventilation open or install a
mechanical ventilation system (e.g. a ventilation hood).
If the cooktop is used for very long periods of time, additional
ventilation of the room may be necessary, e.g. by opening windows
or doors, or running the ventilation on the highest setting.
Do not use pots or pans that are large enough to cover several
burners. The resulting heat buildup can damage the appliance.
If the cooktop has not been used for a long period of time, be sure
to thoroughly clean it and have it inspected by an authorized
technician before using it again.
When you have finished cooking, make sure that the burners and
oven are turned off by checking the position of the knobs.
Only certain types of glass, ceramic or other enamel cookware
can be used on a gas cooktop without breaking as a result of
sudden temperature changes.
Ask your installer to show you the location of your gas shutoff
valve and fuses or circuit breaker panel in your apartment or home.
Be sure that you know how and where to disconnect the gas and
power supply to your cooktop.
The grates, burner cap, bottom parts of the burner, and any other
parts located near the burner flame, can still be very hot after
cooking and cause burns. Do not touch these components when
using the cooktop.
Wind can blow curtains over the cooktop, causing them to catch
fire. If the cooktop is installed near a window, do not use long
curtains.
Not any cookware of glass, glass ceramic, ceramic, clay or other
glass cookware is suitable for use on a burner. It can be damaged
due to sudden temperature change.
