inflammable liquid unattended on the hob. In the event of fire:
Immediately switch off the cooker hood and the cooker. Note! Cover
the fire. Never use water.

• Never do any flambé cooking underneath the cooker hood. It can

cause a fire. Remember that overheated fat may spontaneously
ignite. Never leave the frying pan unattended.

• It is essential that the grease filter is regularly cleaned to help avoid

fat  dripping on to the hot zone and causing a fire. Read the section
on  “Maintenance and Cleaning” in the instruction book.

the power plug from the wall socket and cut the power cord at the
hood inlet.Contact your local authority for information on where to
dispose the cooker hood.
