General safety instructions
 Keep the area around the hob free from fat, alcoholic
substances, plastic and flammable materials (e.g. curtains,
cloths or kitchen materials).
 Only use pots and pans with an even base and a diameter not
larger than the grids on the hob. Pots and pans must be large
enough to cover the flame, otherwise items of clothing could
catch fire.
Pots and pans of the correct size also improve the efficiency of
the hob.
 Ensure that pots and pans are stable when cooking. Use the pot
holder provided to ensure that pots and pans stand firmly.
 Never allow pot or pan handles to protrude over the edge of the
hob. Turn the handles inwards, making sure that they are not
positioned over other burners. This reduces the danger of
spillage, the ignition of flammable materials and serious scald-
ing injuries.
 Proceed with caution when heating oil or fat, as they can ignite
under excessive heat.
 Only use dry pot holders to avoid steam build-up. Do not use
towels or cloths as these can catch fire.
 Never leave the hob unattended during operation. Pots which
boil over can cause smoke and fires.
 Set the control knob (fig. 1 1, page 2) to the zero setting before
removing the pot or pan.
 Do not use the hob to heat the room.
