Use and Care Manual

5
• The use of a gas cooking appliance produces heat and moisture in the room in which it is
installed. The room must be well ventilated.
• Intensive and lengthy use of the appliance may require additional ventilation. This can be
achieved by opening a window or by increasing the power of the mechanical exhaust system, if
installed.
• Burners will only ignite when the corresponding knob has been set to the Full-on position (large
flame icon, Fig. 8).
• Matches can be used to ignite the burners during a power outage, but use caution.
• Do not let the burner flame extend beyond the edge of the pan. Turn off all controls when not
cooking. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or fire.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when the burners are being used. Make sure there are no
children in the vicinity. In particular, make sure that the pan handles are correctly positioned.
Keep checking on foods that require oil or other grease to cook since these products can easily
catch fire.
• The appliance must not be used by people (including children) with impaired mental or physical
capacities, or without experience of using electrical devices, unless supervised or instructed by
an adult responsible for their safety and care. Children should not be allowed to play with the
equipment.
• Never use aerosol sprays near the appliance when it is operating.
• Containers wider than the unit are not recommended.
If you Smell Gas
• Do NOT try to light any appliance.
• Do NOT touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.
WARNING
NEVER use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in
carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance.
