Safety when working with gas

  • Any work carried out on gas equipment and systems may only be done by authorized qualified persons who are registered LPG Gas installers.
  • Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (nature of the gas and gas pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
    Gas and electrical connections must be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with current and local regulations. Installations carried out by unauthorized persons will void the warranty.

IMPORTANT: If the gas type of the appliance is changed, then the rating plate that shows the gas type of the unit must also be changed. the sticker that is currently on the rear of the appliance that reads “Factory adjusted for LPG gas” must be replaced by the sticker “Adjusted for natural gas”. The new sticker is in the gas jet kit supplied with the appliance.

  • The use of gas cooking appliances results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
  • Gas appliances and systems must be regularly checked for proper functioning. The regulator, hose and its clamp must be checked regularly and replaced within the periods recommended by its manufacturer or when necessary.
  • Clean the gas burners regularly. The flames should be blue and burn evenly.
  • Good combustion is required in gas appliances. In case of incomplete combustion, carbon monoxide (CO) might develop. Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless and very toxic gas, which has a lethal effect even in very small doses.

DANGER. Risk of explosion and poisoning! Put out all naked flames and do not smoke, strike matches or do anything that could cause ignition. Do not operate any electric switches (e.g. light switch, TV, computer, cooker or door bell). Do not use a telephone or mobile phone.

In the event of a pan fire

  • Switch off the Gas supply.
  • Smother the flames with a blanket or damp cloth.
  • Burns and injuries are usually caused by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.
  • Do NOT use water to extinguish an oil or fat fire.

If you smell gas

  • Turn off all valves on gas appliances and gas meter at the main control valve, unless it’s in a confined space or cellar.
  • Extinguish all naked flames.
  • Do not operate any electrical appliances.
  • Ventilate the area. Open doors and windows.
  • Check for leaks. Check all tubes and connections for tightness.
  • If odour persists contact your nearest Defy Service Centre for assistance.
  • If you still smell gas leave the property.
  • Warn the neighbors.
  • Call the fire-brigade. Use a telephone outside the house.
  • If you have door or gates that are secured by an electric lock, or entry phone, please open these manually.
  • Do not re-enter the property until you are told it is safe to do so.

In the event of a burn back

OVER THE YEARS, DEFY’S SERVICE CENTRES HAVE IDENTIFIED THIS LIST OF DO’S AND DON’TS AS BEING IMPORTANT FOR CUSTOMER SATISFACTION AND SAFETY. PLEASE READ IT AND FAMILIARISE YOURSELF WITH ITS CONTENTS.

Do
• Clean your appliance regularly.
• Use flat-bottomed pots and pans when
cooking on the hotplates. This will maximize
efficiency and reduce electricity costs.
• Leave about a 40 mm. air gap between
baking tins and the oven walls. Adequate air
circulation is important for good baking
results.
• Get into the habit of wearing oven gloves
when handling utensils in a hot oven. This will
help to avoid accidental burns.
• Partly slide out the oven shelf before
removing hot dishes. This prevents accidental
contact with the hot oven sides.

Don’t
• Use pots which are smaller than the hotplate
diameter. This wastes electricity and allows
the pot handles to overheat.
• Place anything on the open oven door. The
glass is not a work surface and could get
scratched.
• Use the appliance to heat the home. Neither
the hotplates nor the oven was designed for
this purpose and damage could occur.
• Allow pot handles to overhang the front of the
appliance. Children might be tempted to grab
them with harmful consequences.

Never try to extinguish a fire with
water! When oil has caught fire,
immediately cover the pot or pan
with a lid. Switch off the hob if safe
to do so and phone the fire service.

Do NOT engage ringer timer control
knob in anti-clockwise direction from
the “0” position.
