• The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for commercial
or industrial use.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave
the appliance exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot, or with
wet or damp hands and feet.
• The appliance must be used by adults only for
the preparation of food, in accordance with the
instructions outlined in this booklet. Any other
use of the appliance (e.g. for heating the room)
constitutes improper use and is dangerous.
The manufacturer may not be held liable for
any damage resulting from improper, incorrect
and unreasonable use of the appliance.
• The instruction booklet accompanies a class 1
(insulated) or class 2 - subclass 1 (recessed
between 2 cupboards) appliance.
• Do not touch the heating elements or certain
parts of the oven door when the appliance is in
use; these parts become extremely hot. Keep
children well away from it and do not touch the
hot parts yourself.
• Make sure that the power supply cables of other
electrical appliances do not come into contact with
the hot parts of the oven.
• The openings used for ventilation and heat dispersal
must never be covered.
• Do not use unstable or misshapen pans on the
cooking zones; this will help to avoid accidental
spills. Make sure pan handles are turned towards
the centre of the hob in order to avoid accidental
burns.
• Always use oven gloves when placing cookware in
the oven or when removing it.
• Do not use flammable liquids (alcohol, petrol, etc...)
near the appliance while it is in use.
• Do not place flammable material in the lower storage
compartment or in the oven itself. If the appliance is
switched on accidentally, the materials could catch
fire.
• Always make sure the knobs are in the o position
when the appliance is not in use.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the
plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the
cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from the
electricity mains.
• If the appliance breaks down, under no
circumstances should you attempt to perform the
repairs yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced individuals may cause injury or
further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact the
Assistance Service.
• Do not rest heavy objects on the open oven door.
• The internal surfaces of the compartment (where
present) may become hot.
• The glass ceramic hob is resistant to mechanical
shocks, but it may crack (or even break) if struck
with a sharp object such as a utensil. If this
happens, disconnect the appliance from the
electricity mains immediately and contact a Service
Centre.
• If the surface of the hob is cracked, switch off the
appliance to prevent electric shocks from occurring.
• Remember that the cooking zones remain relatively
hot for at least thirty minutes after they have been
switched off. An indicator light provides a warning
when residual heat is present (see Start-up and
use).
• Keep any object which could melt away from the
hob, for example plastic and aluminium objects, or
products with a high sugar content. Be especially
careful when using plastic film and aluminium foil or
packaging: if placed on surfaces which are still hot,
they may cause serious damage to the hob.
• Always make sure that pan handles are turned
towards the centre of the hob in order to avoid
accidental burns.
• When unplugging the appliance, always pull the
plug from the mains socket; do not pull on the
cable.
• Never perform any cleaning or maintenance work
without having disconnected the appliance from the
electricity mains.
• Do not place metal objects (knives, spoons, pan
lids, etc.) on the hob as they may become hot.
• The appliance should not be operated by people
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capacities, by inexperienced individuals
or by anyone who is not familiar with the product.
These individuals should, at the very least, be
supervised by someone who assumes responsibility
for their safety or receive preliminary instructions
relating to the operation of the appliance.
