GAS!
Escaping gas may cause an explosion.
If you smell gas or notice any faults in the
gas installation:
Immediately shut off the gas supply or
▯
close the gas cylinder valve.
Immediately extinguish all naked flames and
▯
cigarettes.
Do not use any light or appliance switches
▯
and do not pull any plugs out of sockets.

phones within the building.
Open windows and ventilate the room.

Warning – Risk of asphyxiation!
The use of a gas cooker leads to a build-up of
heat, moisture and products of combustion in
the room where the appliance is installed.
Ensure that the installation room is well
ventilated. The natural ventilation openings
must be kept open or a mechanical ventilation
device must be provided (e.g. an extractor
hood). Intensive and persistent use of the
appliance may mean that it is necessary to have
additional ventilation (e.g. opening a window),
or more effective ventilation (e.g. operating the
existing mechanical ventilation device at a
higher setting).
m
Warning – Risk of fire!
Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never
▯
leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use
water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch
off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully
using a lid, fire blanket or something
similar.
Risk of fire!
The hotplates become very hot. Never
▯
place combustible items on the hob. Never
place objects on the hob.
