Hob & Cooker Safety

Always ensure that pan bases are dry, and flat before using them on the hob.

Always position pans over the centre of the burner, and turn the handles to a safe position so they cannot be knocked or grabbed.

Always use pans which are no smaller than 100mm (4”), or larger than 250mm (10”).

Always take care when removing food from the oven as the area around the cavity may be hot.

Always use oven gloves when handling any utensils which have been in the oven as they will be hot.

Always make sure that the oven shelves are resting in the correct position in between two runners. Do not place the oven shelves on top of the highest runner, this will lead to spillage and injury if the baking tray, or dish falls.

Never use double pans, rimbased pans, old or misshapen pans, or any pan which is not stable on a flat surface.

Never leave cooking fat, or oil, unattended.

Never use commercial simmering aids, or heat diffusers, as they create excessive heat and can damage the surface of the hob.

Never use the hob for any other purpose than cooking food.

Plastic cooking utensils can melt if they come into contact with a warm hob. Never leave them close to, or on top of, the hob.

Never leave the burner alight without a pan covering it. This causes a fire hazard.

Do not place items on the grill door while it is open.

Do not wrap foil around the oven shelves, or allow it to block the flue.

Do not drape tea towels near the oven while it is on, this will cause a fire hazard.

Do not pull heavy items, such as turkeys, or large joints of meat, out from the oven on the shelf, as they may overbalance and fall.
