Correct use
The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while af-
ter being turned off. There is a potential hazard until the residual heat
indicator goes out.
Never leave the appliance unattended at high heat settings –
Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
Oil and fat can catch fire if overheated. Never leave the appliance
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If the oil or fat catches
fire, do not attempt to put the flames out with water.
Turn off the cooktop and smother the flames using a lid or a suitable
fire blanket.
Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother fire or flame or use
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Storage in or on the appliance: Flammable materials should not be
stored in an oven or in the vicinity of the appliance.
Do not leave the cooktop unattended while it is being used. It
should be continually monitored while boiling and frying.
The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on fire.
Do not flambé under a ventilation hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the appliance. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resis-
tant.
Never heat empty cookware.
Do not heat or can food in closed containers, such as tins or
sealed jars, on the cooktop, as pressure will build up in the container
and cause it to explode.
