SAFETY ADVICE

NEVER:

-store items above the appliance that children may attempt to reach.

-heat up unopened food containers, as pressure can build up causing the container to burst.

-use the appliance to heat up anything other than food.

-dry any items on the hob.

-install the appliance next to curtains or other soft furnishings.

-allow children to play with or tamper with the controls.

-use flammable or plastic items on or near the hob.

-use adapters, multiple sockets and/or extension leads.

-fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, or use a lid.

DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.

-fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only lowers the temperature or the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.

-pull on the appliance or the supply able to unplug it from the electrical outlet.

-allow power cables of other appliances to come into contact.

-with hot parts of this appliance.

-expose the appliance to atmospheric agents, such as rain or sunlight.

-operate the appliance with wet hands.

-use misshapen pans which may be unstable.

-use round base woks directly on the pan supports.

-use fish kettles or large preserving pans across two burners.

-operate the appliance with wet parts of the body.

-operate the appliance when barefoot.

IMPORTANT - As with any cooking appliance there could be some fire risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep fat frying. Cooking utensils containing oil must not be left unattended (eg. to answer the telephone) on or in close proximity to the cooking areas.

IN THE EVENT OF A CHIP PAN OR ANY OTHER PAN FIRE:

1.Turn off the burners.

2.Cover the pan with a fire blanket or damp cloth, this will smother the flames and extinguish the fire.

3.Leave the pan to cool for at least 60 minutes before moving it. Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing outside with it.

NEVER USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT OUT A PAN FIRE as the force of the extinguisher is likely to tip the pan over. Never use water to extinguish oil or fat fires.
