WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS!

and do not pull any plugs out of sockets. Do
not use any telephones or mobile phones
within the building.
▯ Open windows and ventilate the room.
▯ Call the aftersales service or the gas
supplier.
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).
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
