Safety notes

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Always keep children and infirm persons away from the product when it is in use.

Only use the hob for preparing food.

Use a deep pan, large enough to cover the appropriate burner

Always dry food thoroughly before placing it in hot oil or fat. Frozen food in particular will spit and splatter if added too quickly.

Never fill the pan more than one third full of fat or oil.

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

Do not fry too much food at once. This lowers the temperature of the oil or fat and results in fatty foods.

Do not leave hot fat or oil unattended. If overheating occurs, these could catch fire.

In the event of a pan fire

Switch off the Gas supply.

Smother the flames with a blanket or damp cloth.

Burns and injuries are usually caused by picking up the burning pan and rushing outside with it.

Do NOT use water to extinguish an oil or fat fire.

If you smell gas:

Turn off the gas supply at the bottle.

Extinguish all naked flames.

Do not operate any electrical appliances.

Ventilate the area.

Check for leaks as detailed on page 6 of this manual.

If odour persists contact your nearest Defy Service Centre for assistance.

Room ventilation

When using Gas, ensure that the room is well ventilated.

Good ventilation is essential for the safe operation of the hob. Do not install the hob in a room below ground level unless it is open to ground level on at least one side. Prolonged extensive use of the hob may call for additional ventilation, for example an open window or dedicated extraction fan that exhausts to the outside.
