Safety precautions
• To avoid any possible hazard, the appliance may be
installed by qualified personnel only.
• Any repairs by unqualified persons may result in electric
shock or short circuit. In order to avoid possible injuries to
your body or to the appliance, do not attempt any repairs by
yourself. Such work should be carried out by qualified
service personnel.
• Hot grease is highly inflammable, so pay extra attention
when preparing food with grease or oil. Frying may be
carried out only under constant surveillance.
• Warning! Never let small children in the vicinity of the
cooker; they are not yet aware of danger of burns. Older
children may use the appliance only under your surveillance.
• Surface of hotplates may become very hot during operation.
The inside of the oven, hotplates and steam exits are also
places of potential danger for children.
• Danger of burns! Hotplates, oven and cooking accessories
may become very hot during operation. To avoid burns use
kitchen clothes and gloves when handling hot parts or
utensils.
• Mains lead of adjacent appliances may be damaged by
hotplates or if stuck between the oven doors, and produce
short circuit, therefore keep them at safe distance from the
appliance.
• Never clean the oven with the high-pressure steam cleaning
device, as it may provoke short circuit.
• Oven door may become very hot during operation.
Therefore, some models are equipped with the third glass to
reduce the surface heat of the glass, as an extra protection
against burns.
• Do not keep any flammable material in the drawer under the
oven (paper, wiping cloth, plastic bags, cleaning agents or
sprays, etc.), as they might cause fire. Use the drawer to
keep only the oven utensils (flat baking pan, oil collector, oil
filter, etc.).
• If you discover any visible cracks upon the glass ceramic
surface, you may not use the hob anymore, because there is
an electric shock hazard. In such cases switch all the
hotplates off and unscrew the fuse or switch off the main
switch to disconnect the appliance completely from the
mains. Call the nearest service center.
• The appliance must be placed directly on the floor, without
any supports.
Important warnings
In case the glass ceramic hob is used as a worktop it may be
damaged or scratched. Never heat up the food in aluminum foil
or plastic dishes, otherwise you may damage the hob or cause
melting of material and fire.
Door hinges may be damaged if the open door is charged with
heavy objects. Do not sit on the door and never put any heavy
loads on the door in the open position.
Intended use
This appliance is intended for use in your household. Never
use the appliance for any other purpose!
