Important safety warnings

14 This appliance must be used for the purpose for which it was
expressly designed. Any other use (e.g. heating rooms) is
considered to be improper and consequently dangerous. The
manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage resulting
from improper and irresponsible use.
15 A number of fundamental rules must be followed when using
electrical appliances. The following are of particular
importance:
· do not touch the appliance when your hands or feet are
wet
· do not use the appliance barefooted
· never allow the Mains Cable to be stretched, pulled or
damaged if the Cooker is moved for cleaning etc. Do not
use the cooker if the Mains Cable is damaged, consult a
qualified electrician.
· do not allow the cooker to be used unsupervised by
children or persons unfamiliar with it.
16 Always switch off the electrical supply to the cooker and
allow it to cool down before carrying out any cleaning
operations etc.
17 If you are no longer using an appliance of this type, remember
to make it unserviceable by unplugging the appliance from
the mains and cutting the supply cable. Also make all
potentially dangerous parts of the appliance, safe, above all
for children who could play with the appliance.
18 To avoid accidental spillage do not use cookware with uneven
or deformed bottoms on the burners or on the electric plates.
19 Special care should be taken when using chip pans etc. in
order to avoid splashing or spillage of hot oil. They should not
be used unattended since overheated oil may boil over and
could also ignite.
20 Parts of this appliance, cooking surfaces, retain heat for
considerable periods after switching off. Care should,
therefore, be taken when touching these areas before they
have completely cooled down.
21 Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol or gasoline,
etc. near the appliance when it is in use.
22 When using small electric appliances near the hob, keep the
supply cord away from the hot parts.
23 Make sure the knobs are in the "•"/"¡" position when the
appliance is not in use.
24 When the appliance is in use, the heating elements and
some parts of the oven door become extremely hot. Make
sure you don't touch them and keep children well away.
25 Gas units need a regular air replacement for a correct
functioning. Make sure that the requirements requested
in the "Positioning" paragraph are all observed in the
owner's manual.
26 If the cooker is placed on a pedestal, take the necessary
precautions to prevent the same from sliding off the pedestal
itself.
27 This owner's manual is for a class 1 appliance (installed
independently) or class 2, subclass 1 appliances (installed
between two cabinets).
28 The glass top (only on certain models) can shatter if it is
overheated. Therefore, all of the burners or hot plates must
be turned off before the top is closed.
