Clean your appliance regularly This
will prolong it's good looks and
enhance hygiene levels.
Use flat bottomed pots and pans
when cooking on the hotplates. This
will maximise efficiency and reduce
electricity costs.
Keep children well away from the
cooking appliance. Explain the
dangers to them. Being safety
conscious is being safe, not sorry.
Supervise the cooking process.
Overcooked or spoiled food is
wasteful.
Leave about a 40mm. air gap
between baking tins and the oven
walls. Adequate air circulation is
important for good baking results.
Get into the habit of wearing oven
gloves when handling utensils in a
hot oven. This will help to avoid
accidental burns.
Partly slide out the oven shelf before
removing hot dishes from the oven.
This will prevent accidental contact
with the hot oven sides.
Do
Don’t
Use pots which are smaller than the
hotplate diameter. This wastes
electricity and allows the pot
handles to overheat.
Leave the appliance unattended
especially when grilling. This is
good practice and avoids accidents.
Place anything on the open oven
door. The glass is not a work
surface and could get scratched.
Use abrasive cleaning materials.
They will scratch surfaces and facia
graphics.
Allow fat splashes to dry and bake
onto the stove/oven surface before
cleaning them. It is easier to clean
spills while they are still slightly
warm and soft.
Put baking tins on the floor of the
oven. This will prevent heat
circulation and spoil baking results.
Use the appliance to heat the home.
Neither the hotplates nor the oven
were designed for this purpose and
damage could occur.
Allow pot handles to overhang the
front of the appliance. Children
might be tempted to grab them with
harmful consequences.
