This article covers the safety guidelines for the BIK-70 BIKW-75 by Boretti.
Precautions before using • Unpack all the materials. • The installation and connecting of the applian- ce 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-equi- pped 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 freestan- ding or as working surface. • The appliance must be grounded and connec- ted conforming to local standards. • Do not use any extension cable to connect it. • The appliance can not be used above a dis- hwasher or a tumble-dryer: steam may da- mage the electronic appliances. 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. • Children must not manipulate 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 hea- ting 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 beco- me very hot and catch fire. Cleaning • Switch the appliance off before cleaning. • Let it cool completely. • Do not ever use any steam-driven or pres- sure appliance. • Do not use any object that may scratch the ceramic glass. 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 da- mage 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 appli- ance 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 al- terations of the vitroceramic glass by coo- ling: switch on the appliance and take them immediately out of the hot heating zone (be careful : do not burn yourself). • Never place any hot container over the con- trol 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 (2cm). This is essential to guaranty a correct ventilation. • Never put any inflammable object (ex. sprays) into the drawer situated under the vitrocera- mic hob. The eventuals cutlery drawers must be resistant to heat. Precautions in case of appliance failure • If a defect is noticed, switch on 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. • Reparing have to be done by specialists. Do not open the appliance by yourself. Other protections • Note sure that the container pan is always centred on the cooking zone. The bottom of the pan must has to cover as much as pos- sible the cooking zone. • For the users of pacemaker, the magnetic field could influence its operating. We re- commend to get information to the retailer or of the doctor. • Do not to use aluminium or synthetic mate- rial containers: they could melt on still hot cooking zones. • The worn appliances contain certain noble metals. Apply to the local government about the possibilities of recycling.
