Safety Rules
3 General instructions
1. PITT
®
cooking is intended for domestic use only.
2. Only use the gas hob for the preparation of dishes. This appliance is not suitable for heating your home.
3. Please ensure that all burner parts are placed correctly.
4. Ensure adequate ventilation during use.
5. Distance from the pan to a non-heat resistant wall or control knob must be at least 2 cm or 0,8 inches.
6. Always place pans on the pan support, never directly on the burner top.
7. Check the product regularly for damage. Do not use the product when damaged, repair it immediately.
8. The user is responsible for the proper use and good state of the system.
When used incorrectly, the manufacturer is not liable for any damages.
Overheating and fire hazards
9. Use the burner only with a pan or a wok on the pan support. Warning: an empty pan may overheat.
10. Overheated oil or butter can easily ignite. Never put out with water. You can smother the flames by closing the pan with
a lid.
11. Do not flambé under a cooker hood, this can cause a fire.
12. Never put flammable objects on the hob.
13. Never place a grill or griddle over two burners.
14. Do not use pans with a larger base diameter than the pan support. We recommend for the 2 and 3KW burners a pan
with a maximum base diameter of 230 mm and for the 5KW burner a maximum base of 270 mm.
Hot parts
15. Parts of the burner and the worktop surrounding the burner may become hot during use and will remain hot for a long
period after use. Please take care not to touch these parts until they have fully cooled.
16. Please be aware that if you use a pan with a larger base diameter than the pan support (see point 14) there is a possi-
bility that the control knobs may become hot.
17. Please be aware that the flame should always remain beneath the base of the pan (unless you are stir frying with a
wok). Flames rising against the side of the pan will not be effective and will produce unwanted overheating.
18. It is very important that children remain at a distance.
