1.From time to time check the condition of gas hoses, connections and the gas pressure regulator.

2.Do not attempt to repair the stove yourself or allow an unqualified person to do so.

3.Contact the nearest Defy Service Centre if service is required.

4.Keep children away from the stove when it is in use.

5.Do not leave flammable materials near the stove.

6.Never pour water onto the stove.

7.Keep the kitchen well ventilated when the stove is in use.

8.Close the gas pressure regulator at night ( while you sleep ) or when you leave the house.

9.Keep the gas bottle out of the kitchen if possible and in a well ventilated place.

10.Turn pot handles inwards so they will not protrude beyond the stove.

11.Never use the stove with the hob lid down. Do not lower the hob lid while the stove is still hot.

12.Use oven gloves when removing hot dishes from the oven

13.Do not place a utensil directly on the oven floor.

14.Open and close the oven door gently to prevent the flame from blowing out.

15.In the event of a "burn back"- (when the flame burns back into the jet ) Turn off the control valve to the affected burner immediately. Wait a few minutes and light the burner in the normal manner. If burn-back occurs again, turn off the control valve to the affected burner and call a Service Technician. Do not use the appliance again until a service technician has declared it safe to do so.
