Never use the hob surface as a chopping
board or food preparation area, as this may
lead to it becoming damaged.
Never put metal cooking utensils, cutlery,
knives or other metal objects on the hob. They
could become hot if they are near a cooking
area which is in use.
Never leave aluminium foil on the hob top,
it reÁects heat back into the element which
leads to damage.
Never heat up a sealed tin of food on the hob,
as it may explode.
Never leave pans overhanging the edge of the
hob.
Fire safety advice
Most
kitchen
Àres occur when people are
distracted or leave things unattended, so
remember:
If you’re called away from the hob - by the
phone or someone at the door, either take
pans off the heat, or switch off your hob.
Don’t let yourself be distracted while cooking.
If you do have a Àre in the kitchen, don’t take
any risks - get everyone out of your home and
call the Fire Service

Do not move it as it’s likely to be extremely hot.
Turn off the heat if it’s safe to do so, but never
lean over a pan to reach the controls.
Use
Àre blanket or a damp tea-towel to cover
the pan.
If you have put the Àre out, leave the pan to
cool completely.
Deep-fat frying presents more
dangers in your kitchen
1ever Àll a chip pan (or other deep fat fryer)
more than one-third full of oil.
Do not use a Àre extinguisher on a pan of
burning oil - the force of the extinguisher can
spread the Àre and create a Àreball.

Pull the plug out, or switch off the power at the
fuse box - this may be enough to stop the Àre
immediately
Smother
the
Àre with a Àre blanket, or use a
dry powder or carbon dioxide extinguisher
Remember: never use water on an electrical or
cooking oil Àre.
