inappropriate guards can cause accidents.
If a drawer underneath the appliance is permitted (see the
Ÿ
installation instructions), without an intermediate bottom,
this should not be used to store highly flammable
objects/materials.
Ensure that there is adequate clearance of a few
centimetres between the bottom of the hob and the
contents of any drawers.
The hob is only to be used for the preparation of food.
Ÿ
This appliance is only designed for household use.
Ÿ
Do not warm closed tins on the hob. There will be a build-
Ÿ
up of pressure that will cause tins to explode. You might
get injured or scalded.
Never cover the appliance with a cloth or something
Ÿ
similar. If the appliance is still hot or is switched on, there is
a risk of fire.
Do not use the appliance as a worktop. The appliance may
Ÿ
accidentally be switched on or still be hot, which means
objects could melt, become hot or catch fire.
Do not use the appliance in temperatures below 5 °C.
Ÿ
The appliance should not be placed or used outdoors.
Ÿ
When you use the hob for the first time, you will notice a
Ÿ
"new smell". Don't worry, this is normal. If the kitchen is
well ventilated, the smell will soon disappear.
The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of
Ÿ
an external timer or separate remote control system.
Never open the casing of the appliance.
Ÿ
In connection with electrical safety, the appliance shall not
Ÿ
be cleaned with high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners.
The ceramic top is extremely strong but not unbreakable.
Ÿ
For example, a spice jar or sharp utensil falling on it could
cause it to break.
If you decide to discontinue using the appliance because of
Ÿ
a fault, we recommend you cut off the cable after removing
the plug from the plug socket. Take the appliance to your
municipality's waste disposal site.
