•
Do not place any flammable
materials close to the appliance
as the sides may become hot
during use.
• Do not place baking trays,
dishes or aluminium foil directly
onto the bottom of the oven.
The heat accumulation might
damage the bottom of the
oven.
• Keep all ventilation slots clear
of obstructions.
• The appliance may be hot
when it is in use. Never touch
the hot burners, inner sections
of the oven, heaters etc.
• Always use heat resistant oven
gloves when putting in or
removing dishes from the hot
oven.
• Do not use the appliance with
the front door glass removed or
cracked.
• The rear surface of the oven
gets hot when it is in use. Make
sure that the gas/electrical
connection does not come into
contact with the rear surface as
connections may get damaged.
• Do not trap the mains cable
between the oven door and
frame and do not route it over
hot surfaces as the cable
insulation may melt and cause
a fire as a result of a short
circuit.
• Make sure that the function
knobs are switched off after
every use.
• When using Gas, ensure that
the room is well ventilated.
• Always keep children and infirm
persons away from the
appliance when it is in use.
• Only use the appliance for
preparing food.
• Use a deep pan, large enough
to cover the appropriate
burner.
• Always dry food thoroughly
before placing it in hot oil or fat.
Frozen food in particular will
spit and splatter if added too
quickly.
• Never fill the pan more than
one third full of fat or oil.
• Never heat fat or fry with a lid
on the pan.
• Do not fry too much food at
once. This lowers the
temperature of the oil or fat and
results in fatty foods.
• Do not leave hot fat or oil
unattended. If overheating
occurs, these could catch fire.
• Do not use or store
inflammable products (alcohol,
petrol, benzene etc.) near the
appliance as these pose a fire
risk.
