OVEN / GRILL
Do
•Always take care when removing food from the oven as the area around the cavity may be hot.
•Always use oven gloves when han- dling any utensils that have been in the oven as they will be hot.
•Always make sure that the oven shelves are resting in the correct po- sition between two runners. Do not place the oven shelves on top of the highest runner, as this is not stable and can lead to spillage or injury.
•Always use the Minute Minder (if fitted) if you are leaving the oven unattended - this reduces the risk of food burning.
Do Not
•Never place items on the door while it is open.
•Never wrap foil around the oven shelves or allow foil to block the flue.
•Never drape tea towels near the oven while it is on; this will cause a fire hazard.
•Never pull heavy items, such as tur- keys or large joints of meat, out from the oven on the shelf, as they may overbalance and fall.
•Never use this appliance to heat any- thing other than food items and do not use it for heating the room.
CAUTION: The use of a gas cooking ap- pliance results in the production of heat, moisture and products of combustion in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated espe- cially when the appliance is in use: keep natural ventilation holes open or install a mechanical ventilation device (mechanical extractor hood).
Prolonged intensive use of the appliance may call for additional ventilation, for example opening of a window, or more effective ventilation, for example increas- ing the level of mechanical ventilation where present.
