Important safety information

Warning – WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS!

Escaping gas may cause an explosion. If you smell gas or notice any faults in the gas installation:

• Immediately shut off the gas supply or close the gas cylinder valve.
• Immediately extinguish all naked flames and cigarettes.
• Do not use any light or appliance switches and do not pull any plugs out of sockets. Do not use any telephones or mobile phones within the building.
• Open windows and ventilate the room.
• Call the after-sales service or the gas supplier.

A Warning – Risk of poisoning!

• The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat, moisture, and products of combustion in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated especially when the appliance is in use.
• Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may require additional ventilation, for example the increasing of mechanical ventilation where present, additional ventilation to safely remove the products of combustion to outside (external) air whilst also providing room air changes with additional ventilation.
• Consult a professional before installation of the additional ventilation.

Warning – Risk of fire!

• Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket, or something similar.
• The hotplates become very hot. Never place combustible items on the hob. Never place objects on the hob.
• The appliance becomes very hot and flammable materials could catch fire. Never store or use flammable objects (e.g. spray cans, cleaning agents) under the appliance or in its immediate vicinity. Never place flammable items on or in the appliance.
• The appliance becomes very hot, and fabrics and other objects may ignite. Keep fabrics (e.g. garments, curtains) away from the flames. Never reach over the flames. Do not place flammable objects (e.g. tea towel, newspapers) on, next to or behind the appliance.
• When gas hotplates are in operation without any cookware placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. The appliance and the extractor hood above  it may become damaged or be set onfire. Grease residue in the filter of the extractor hood may ignite.
• Only operate the gas burners with cookware on them.
• If the burner does not ignite after 15 seconds, switch off the control knob and open the door or window in the room. Wait at least 1 minute before igniting the burner again.

Environmental protection
The sections below list several energy-saving tips and provide information on disposing of your appliance.

Saving energy

• Choose a burner of roughly the same size as your pan. Place the cookware in the middle.
• Use small saucepans for small quantities. Using a large saucepan with little in it consumes a lot of energy.
• Always place suitable lids on saucepans. Cooking without a lid consumes significantly more energy. Use a glass lid so that you can see into the pan without having to lift the lid.
• Cook with only a little water. This will save energy and preserve the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
• Switch to a lower heat setting in good time. This will save energy.

Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally friendly / This appliance is labeled by European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment- WEEE).

Information and tips regarding cookware
The following information and tips have been provided to help you save energy and avoid damaging your cookware.

Suitable cooking vessels

Pots with a diameter of less than 90 mm or more than 280 mm (320 mm for the Wok burner) should not be used. When using large pots, pay attention to keeping to a minimum distance of 50 mm between the cooking vessel and combustible surroundings. A minimum distance of 50 mm must be observed between the control knob/control panel and the pot or pan. The pot or pan should not touch the control panel.

Precautions for use

1. Use pots or pans which are the right size for each burner.
2. Do not use small pots or pans on large burners. The flame should not touch the sides of the pot.
3. Do not use damaged pots or pans, which do not sit evenly on the cooktoop, they may tip over. Only use pots or pans with a thick, flat base. Do not cook without using a lid and make sure the lid is properly fitted. This wastes energy.
4. Always center the pot or pan over the burner, otherwise, it could tip over. Do not place large pots on the burners near the control knobs. These may get damaged by the high temperatures.
5. Place the pots or pans on the pan support, never directly on the burner. Make sure that the pan supports and burner caps are correctly positioned before using the appliance.
6. Pots or pans should be placed on the cooktop carefully. Do not strike the cooktop and do not place excessive weight on it.
7. Do not heat a cooking vessel (e.g. roaster, pan,  grill stone) on more than one burner at the same time. The resulting heat accumulation will damage the appliance.
