Inspect the setup before purchase

Measure counter depth and space between vessels. Check whether the model and fittings suit the household’s approved LPG or piped-gas arrangement. A qualified gas service provider should handle connections and leak checks.

Use a safe daily routine

Keep combustible items away, avoid oversized vessels that trap heat around controls and turn off burners and the supply as directed after cooking. A clean flame and burner are helpful, but unusual colour, noise or soot deserves inspection.

Respond to gas smell correctly

Do not operate electrical switches or flames. Turn off supply if safe, ventilate and leave the area, then contact the gas provider’s emergency service. Do not test a suspected leak with a match or attempt an improvised hose repair.

Safe care checklist

Complete these checks safely

  1. Start with the manual: confirm which parts and maintenance steps are intended for the user.
  2. Isolate safely: switch off electricity, water or other supplies exactly as the product instructions require.
  3. Change one thing at a time: record the symptom, setting and result so a recurring fault is easier to diagnose.
  4. Protect the warranty: do not open sealed panels or use unapproved chemicals, parts or repair methods.
  5. Escalate warning signs: stop for smoke, burning smell, leakage near electricity, repeated trips or unsafe movement.
