cause injury or further malfunctioning of the appliance. Contact a Service

Centre (see Assistance).

• Always make sure that pan handles are turned towards the centre of the

hob in order to avoid accidental burns.

• Do not close the glass cover (if present) when the gas burners or electric

hotplates are still hot.

• Do not leave the electric hotplate switched on without a pan placed on it.

• Do not use unstable or deformed pans.

• 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.

• Do not let children play with the appliance.

• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external

timer or separate remote-control system.

Disposal

• When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that

the packaging may be reused.

• The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic

Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must

not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old

appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery

and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on

human health and the environment.The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol

on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of

the appliance it must be separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information

concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Respecting and conserving the environment

• Make the most of your hot plate’s residual heat by switching off cast iron hot

plates 10 minutes before the end of your cooking time and glass ceramic

hot plates 5 minutes before the end of cooking time.

• The base of your pot or pan should cover the hot plate. If it is smaller,

precious energy will be wasted and pots that boil over leave encrusted

remains that can be difcult to remove.

• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-tting lids and use as little

water as possible. Cooking with the lid off will greatly increase energy

consumption.

• Use purely at pots and pans.

• If you are cooking something that takes a long time, it’s worth using a

pressure cooker, which is twice as fast and saves a third of the energy.

lighting devices should be cleaned frequently and the gas outlet holes

should be checked for blockages.

with a little oil while still warm.

• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that has been left on the

surface for a long time, or by aggressive detergents containing phosphorus.

After cleaning, rinse and dry any remaining drops of water.
