When you heat oil, do not leave it
unattended.

immediately cover the pot or pan with a
lid. Switch off the burner/plate if safe to
do so and phone the fire service.

Use pans which have sufficient
capacity for the amount of food being
cooked so they don't boil over and
cause unnecessary cleaning.
Do not place lids on the burners.
Always position pans centrally over
the burners. When transferring pans
from one burner to another always lift
the pans do not slide them.
This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface units of different
size. Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover
the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the heating
element to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to burner will
also improve efficiency.
Never leave surface units unattended
at high heat settings. Boilover causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite.
Make sure reflector pans or drip
bowls are in place. Absence of
these pans or bowls during cooking
may subject wiring or components

The glass ceramic surface is heat-
resistant and insensitive to large
temperature deviations.
Do not use the glass ceramic burner/
plate for keeping objects or as cutting
surface.
Do not cook popcorn in prepackaged
aluminum containers on the cooktop.
They could leave aluminum marks
that cannot be removed completely.
Use pot and pans with ground
bottoms. Sharp edges cause
scratches on the surface.
Do not use aluminium pots and
pans. Aluminium damages the glass
ceramic surface.
Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic earthenware or
other glazed utensils are suitable for
range-top service without breaking
due to the sudden change in
temperature.
Do not cook foods directly on the
cook-top.
For foods containing sugar in any
form, clean up all spills and soils as
soon as possible. Allow the cook-top
to cool down slightly. Then, while
wearing oven mitts, remove the spills
while the surface is still warm. If sug-
ary spills are allowed to cool down,
they can adhere to the cook-top and
can cause pitting and permanent
marks.
If a wet sponge or cloth is used to
wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid steam burn. Some
