Things to watch for
■
The appliance should only be connected by
a qualified fitter
(see electrical connection).
■ Disconnect the appliance before starting
with cleaning or reparation. Preferably by
taking the plug out of the socket or by
turning off the mains switch.
■ Grease and oil are flammable when over-
heated. Stay near the cooker when
preparing dishes.
■ When cooking the hob becomes hot,
children should always be kept at a
distance.
■ Cords to electrical appliances - e.g.
a mixer - may accidentally touch the
cooking zones.
■ Never leave a pan of frying oil unattended
while heating, should it reach too high a
temperature it could self-ignite.
■ The zones must not be used without pans.
Never put aluminium foil directly on the
zone.
■ Should breaks or cracks appear in the
ceramic glass, as a result of careless
treatment, use of the hob must be
discontinued immediately.
■ The use of pointed or beating utensils on
the ceramic hob can break the glass.
■ Do not place any inflammable or
deformable objects immediately under the
hob.
■ Clean immediately. Spills of foods or fruit
juices with a high sugar content, such as
plum juice or rhubarb, can impair the
colour of the enamel or stainless steel.
These should therefore be cleaned
immediately.
■ Clean the hob with soapy water. We advise
you to treat the glass plate with Collo Profi
before using your hob for the first time (see
section on maintenance).
