[. . . ] Do not use steam jets for cleaning the appliance. The steam could reach the electronics, damaging them and causing shortcircuits. All repairs must be carried out by an authorised technician or at an authorised service centre. The improper use of tools can cause hazards. Do not spray any spray products near the household appliance while it is in operation. Do not use spray products while the appliance is still hot. The gases contained in spray cans may catch fire. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or things caused by non-observance of the above prescriptions or by interference with any part of the appliance or by the use of non-original spare parts. 6 Instructions for disposal 3. ENVIRONMENTAL CARE 3. 1 Our environmental care Pursuant to Directives 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and 2003/108/EC relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that at the end of the useful life of the product, it must be collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must consign the product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate selective collection centres for electrical and electronic refuse, or deliver it back to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the appliance consists. Always check that the control knobs are in the O (off) position when you finish using the hob. If the burners should go out accidentally, after about 20 seconds a safety device will be tripped, cutting off the gas supply, even if the gas tap is open. Turn off the control knob and wait at least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner. 8 Instructions for the user 4. 2 Practical tips for using the burners For better burner efficiency and to minimise gas consumption, use pans with a flat, smooth base and a lid that have a suitable size for the burner, thus preventing the flames reaching the sides of the pan (see point "4. 3 Cookware diameters"). Once the contents come to the boil, turn down the flame far enough to prevent the liquid from boiling over. To prevent burns or damage to the hob during cooking, all cookware must be placed inside the perimeter of the hob. Take the greatest care when using fats or oils since they may catch fire if overheated. 4. 3 Cookware diameters HOB BURNERS min and max Ø (in cm) 1 Auxiliary 2 Semi-rapid 3 UR2 12-16 18-24 22-26 1 3 2 1 2 3 4. 3. 1 Cookware diameters with raised pan stand HOB BURNERS min and max Ø (in cm) 1 2 2 3 1 3 1 Auxiliary 2 Semi-rapid 3 UR2 16-26 24-28 26-34 9 Instructions for the user 5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Before performing any operations requiring access to powered parts, disconnect the appliance from the power supply. NEVER USE A JET OF STEAM TO CLEAN THE APPLIANCE. WARNING: For your safety, before performing any cleaning or extraordinary maintenance, it is recommended to use protective gloves. 5. 1 Cleaning stainless steel To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly after use. 5. 1. 1 Ordinary daily cleaning To clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. How to use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather. 5. 1. 2 Food stains or residues Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they will damage the surface. [. . . ] After carrying out any operation on the appliance, check that the gas connections are properly tightened. The tightening torque must be 15 Nm minimum and 20 Nm maximum. If required by the type of gas, use a pressure regulator that complies with current regulations. The installation with hose must be carried out so that the length of the hose does not exceed the maximum extension of 2 meters; make sure that the hoses do not come in contact with moving parts or are crushed.
