	to reach.
	● Never leave anything on the hob surface when unattended and
	not in use.
	● Never remove the oven shelves whilst the oven is hot.
	● Never heat up unopened food containers as pressure can build
	up causing the container to burst.
	● Never store chemicals/food stuffs, pressurised container in or
	on the appliance, or in cabinets immediately above or next to
	the appliance.
	● Never place flammable or plastic items on or near the hob.
	● Never fill a deep fat frying pan more than 1/3 full of oil, or use
	a lid. DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
	● Never operate the grill with the grill door closed as this will
	cause the appliance to overheat.

	● Never use the grill to warm plates.
	● Never dry any items on either the hob or oven doors.
	● Never install the appliance next to curtains or other soft
	furnishings.
	● Never use proprietary spillage collectors on the hob.

	NOTE: The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production
	of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that
	the kitchen is well ventilated; 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 increasing the level of mechanical ventilation
	where present.
