2. Safety
2.1 Safe use of the appliance
The table-top Griddle-Line induction griddles are especially suitable as frying units in the
kitchen for the preparation of meals. They can be used for frying and keeping food warm.
Information signs mounted directly on the griddle must be observed at all times and kept
in a fully legible condition.
Danger for persons, for the environment and for the griddle can result from non-observ-
ance of the safety information. Certain risks may be associated with non-observance of
precautions, including:
• Danger to persons through electrical causes.
• Danger to persons through an overheated heating surface.
• Danger to persons through overheated oil or grease.
• Danger to persons through a hot case.
The safety information contained in these instructions for use, the existing national regu-
lation for the prevention of accidents as well as any internal working, operating and safety
regulation stipulated by the operator must be observed.
Any risks from electric power must be eliminated. The induction unit shall only be used
if the installation of the electricity is fitted by an approved installation contractor in ac-
cordance with specific national and local regulations.
• The induction Griddle-Line unit must only be used for frying or keeping warm of
food.
• Never heat-up frying devices as e.g. pans on the griddle plate as this could lead to
thermal damage or destruction.
• Do not put any piece of paper, cardboard, cloth, etc. on the frying area, as this
might initiate a fire.
• Do not place credit cards, phone cards, cassette tapes, or other objects that are sen-
sitive to magnetism on the heating surface.
• As metallic objects are heated up very quickly when placed on the frying area, do
notplace any other objects (closed cans, aluminium foil, cutlery, jewellery, watch-
es etc.) on the induction griddle.
• Persons with a pacemaker should ask their doctor whether they are safe near an in-
duction griddle or not.
• The induction griddle has an internal air-cooling system. Do not obstruct air inlet-
and air outlet-slots with objects (cloth) as this would cause an overheating and the
griddle would switch off.
