	! Since the hob burners are equipped with a safety
	device, you must hold the control knob in for about 3
	seconds after the burner has been lighted to allow
	the gas to pass until the safety thermocouple has
	heated.
	For the hotplate to work in the most efficient way
	possible and in order to save on the amount of gas
	consumed, it is recommended that only pans which
	have a lid and a flat base are used. They should
	also be suited to the size of the hotplate.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR DEEP FAT FRYING

1.Never fill chip pans more than one third full with oil or fat.

2.Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooling period.

3.Never heat fat or fry with a lid on the pan.

4.Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods in particular will cause frothing and spitting if added too quickly.

5.Always keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or fat.

HOW TO DEAL WITH A FAT FIRE

1.Do not move the pan.

2.Turn off the hotplate burners.

3.Smother the flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth to extinguish the fire. Do not use water or a fire extinguisher as the force of it may spread the burning fat or oil over the edge of the pan.

4.Leave the pan for at least 60 minutes before moving it.
