Correct use
~
For people fitted with a heart
pacemaker:
Please note that the area immediately
surrounding the appliance is
electromagnetically charged, and that
this could affect a pacemaker.
If in any doubt consult the manufacturer
of the pacemaker or your doctor.
~
The appliance gets hot when in use
and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off. There is a danger
of burning until the residual heat
indicators go out.
~
For added protection, it is advisable
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance. Do
not let them get damp or wet, as this
causes heat to transfer through the
material more quickly with the risk of
scalding or burning yourself.
~
This appliance must not be set up or
operated in the open air.
~
When using an electric socket near
the appliance, care should be taken
that the cable of the electrical
appliance does not come into contact
with the hot appliance. The insulation
on the cable could become damaged,
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
~
Do not cover the appliance, e.g.
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could
be a fire hazard if the appliance is
switched on by mistake.
~
Do not leave the appliance
unattended whilst it is in use.
Pans that have boiled dry can cause
damage to the ceramic surface for
which the manufacturer cannot be held
liable.
Boiling fat or oil could ignite and cause
a fire.
~
If, despite this, oil or fat does catch
fire, do not attempt to put out the flames
with water. Use a suitable fire blanket,
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to
smother the flames.
~
Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.
~
Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob, as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
~
To prevent damage to items which
are susceptible to magnetic fields, e.g.
credit cards, diskettes, pocket
calculators etc, do not leave them in the
immediate vicinity of the hob.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at high
temperatures, and could catch fire.
