Protection from burning and

scalding

~

The surface of the appliance is hot

when in use, and remains hot for quite

a while after being switched off. There

is a danger of burning until the residual

heat indicators go out.

~

For added protection it is advisable

to use heat-resistant pot holders or

gloves when using the appliance. Do

not let them get damp or wet, as this

causes heat to transfer through the

material more quickly with the risk of

scalding or burning yourself.

~

Do not heat up unopened tins of

food on the hob as pressure will build

up in the tin and it can explode. This

could result in injury and scalding or

damage.

~

Do not place objects other than pots

and pans on the hob. Be especially

careful not to place knives, forks or

spoons etc, or other metallic items on

the hob. If the hob is switched on, or if

there is residual heat present, the

metallic items can heat up and cause

burning. Remember that metallic items

can cause the cooking zone to heat up

unintentionally! Depending on material,

other non-metallic items can melt or

burn if placed on the hob. Switch the

hob off after use.

~

Do not cover the appliance, e.g.

with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could

be a fire hazard if the appliance is

switched on by mistake.

~

Never leave the appliance

unattended when cooking with oil or fat

as these are fire hazards if overheated.

Very hot oil can catch fire and could

even set a cooker hood above on fire.

Always heat fat slowly, watching as it

heats.

~

If, despite this, oil or fat does catch

fire, do not attempt to put out the flames

with water. Use a suitable fire blanket,

saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to

smother the flames.

~

Do not flambé under a cooker hood.

The flames could set the cooker hood

on fire.
