Risk of asphyxiation!
The use of a gas cooker leads to a build-up
of heat, moisture and products of
combustion in the room where the
appliance is installed. Ensure that the
installation room is well ventilated. The
natural ventilation openings must be kept
open or a mechanical ventilation device
must be provided (e.g. an extractor hood).
Intensive and persistent use of the
appliance may mean that it is necessary to
have additional ventilation (e.g. opening a
window), or more effective ventilation (e.g.
operating the existing mechanical
ventilation device at a higher setting).
Risk of fire!
■
A draught is created when the appliance
door is opened. Greaseproof paper may
come into contact with the heating
element and catch fire. Do not place
greaseproof paper loosely over
accessories during preheating. Always
weight down the greaseproof paper with a
dish or a baking tin. Only cover the
surface required with greaseproof paper.
Greaseproof paper must not protrude over
the accessories.

When gas hotplates are in operation
without any cookware placed on them,
