This article covers the safety guidelines for the BI 60 / BI 60 MAT BI 80 / BI 80 MAT by Boretti.
Precautions before using • Unpack all the materials. • The installation and connecting of the appliance have to be done by approved specialists. The manufacturer can not be responsible for damage caused by building-in or connecting errors. • To be used, the appliance must be well-equipped and installed in a kitchen unit and an adapted and approved work surface. • This domestic appliance is exclusively for the cooking of food, to the exclusion of any other domestic, commercial or industrial use. • Remove all labels and self-adhesives from the ceramic glass. • Do not change or alter the appliance. • The cooking plate can not be used as freestanding or as working surface. • The appliance must be grounded and connected conforming to local standards. • Do not use any extension cable to connect it. • The appliance can not be used above a dishwasher or a tumble-dryer: steam may damage the electronic appliances. • The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of external timer or separate remote control system. Using the appliance • Switch the heating zones off after using. • Keep an eye on the cooking using grease or oils: that may quickly ignite. • Be careful not to burn yourself while or after using the appliance. • Make sure no cable of any fixed or moving appliance contacts with the glass or the hot saucepan. • Magnetically objects (credit cards, floppy disks, calculators) should not be placed near to the engaged appliance. • Do not place any metallic object except heating containers. In case of untimely engaging or residual heat, this one may heat, melt or even burn. • Never cover the appliance with a cloth or a protection sheet. This is supposed to become very hot and catch fire. • This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. • Children shall not play with the appliance. • Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. • Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids should not be placed on the hob surface since they can get hot. Precautions not to damage the appliance • Raw pan bottoms or damaged saucepans (not enamelled cast iron pots,) may damage the ceramic glass. • Sand or other abrasive materials may damage ceramic glass. • Avoid dropping objects, even little ones, on the vitroceramic. • Do not hit the edges of the glass with saucepans. • Make sure that the ventilation of the appliance works according to the manufacturer's instructions. • Do not put or leave empty saucepans on the vitroceramic hobs. • Sugar, synthetic materials or aluminium sheets must not contact with the heating zones. These may cause breaks or other alterations of the vitroceramic glass by cooling: switch on the appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating zone (be careful: do not burn yourself). • WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surface. • Never place any hot container over the control panel. • If a drawer is situated under the embedded appliance, make sure the space between the content of the drawer and the inferior part of the appliance is large enough (2 cm). This is essential to guaranty a correct ventilation. • Never put any inflammable object (ex. sprays) into the drawer situated under the vitroceramic hob. The eventual cutlery drawers must be resistant to heat. Precautions in case of appliance failure • If a defect is noticed, switch off the appliance and turn off the electrical supplying. • If the ceramic glass is cracked or fissured, you must unplug the appliance and contact the after sales service. • Repairing has to be done by specialists. Do not open the appliance by yourself. • WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of electric shock. Other protections • Note sure that the container pan is always centred on the cooking zone. The bottom of the pan must have to cover as much as possible the cooking zone. • For the users of pacemaker, the magnetic field could influence its operating. We recommend getting information to the retailer or of the doctor. • Do not to use aluminium or synthetic material containers: they could melt on still hot cooking zones. • NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the appliance and then cover flame e.g. with a lid or a fire blanket.
