Safety and warnings
Important safety precautions
Isolating switch: make sure this oven is connected to a circuit which incorporates an isolating
switch providing full disconnection from the power supply.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children.
Children, or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should have a
responsible person to instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that they can use
the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.
Safe food handling: leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before and after
cooking. This is to avoid contamination by organisms which may cause food poisoning. Take
particular care during warmer weather.
Do not place aluminium foil or dishes with reflective qualities on the oven floor as this will cause
a heat build-up which will irreversibly damage the enamel.
Do not stand on the door, or place heavy objects on it.
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outside surfaces of the oven.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the oven.
Do not stand or place heavy objects on this appliance.
Do not use an asbestos mat or decorative covers between the flame and the saucepan as this may
cause serious damage to your cooktop.
Do not place aluminium foil or plastic dishes on the cooktop burners.
Do not let large saucepans or frying pans overlap the bench as this can deflect heat onto your
benchtop and damage the surface.
Do not let large saucepans, frying pans or woks push any other pans aside. This could make them
unstable or deflect heat onto your benchtop and damage the surface.
Do not use a steam cleaner for cleaning this cooktop.
Saucepan handles may be hot to touch. Ensure saucepan handles do not overhang other gas
burners that are on. Keep handles out of reach of children.
If the electrical supply cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by an authorised person. Ensure
that the electrical connection plug is accessible after installation.
Where this gas cooktop is installed in marine craft or in a caravan, it shall not be used as a space
heater.
The use of a gas cooking appliance results in the production of heat and moisture in the room in
which it is installed. Ensure 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.
Only use the griddle on the fish burner.
To prevent excessive heat build up in the cooktop area, cooking times on the griddle should be
limited to 1 hour.
The barbeque cover (accessory) must not be used as a cooking surface.
Fat left on the lava rocks or in the tray may ignite. If flame flare-ups become excessive during
cooking turn down the temperature. The barbeque grid, rock tray and lava rocks should be cleaned
after every use.
