When you will fill the form to have access to the kitchen, you will agree to comply with the following rules of use of the kitchen of the Student Union of the University of the Arts Helsinki (TaiYo). 

  1. You must not open the kitchen door for anyone else – if you let anyone else use the kitchen, you are responsible for all possible harm and mess done by this person!The kitchen is not in public use: it is only meant for Student Union officials and for those students who have acquired access to it by signing a contract with the Student Union. It is forbidden to open the kitchen door for anyone else – if you let anyone else use the kitchen, you are responsible for all possible harm and mess done by this person!

  2. The kitchen door must always be closed and locked after using the kitchen or when leaving the premises.

  3. The user of the kitchen must always clean up their own mess and wash their own dishes! 

  4. The kitchenware of the Student Union must not be taken outside the Student Uni–on premises. 

  5. The shelves above the coffee machine and the low refrigerators, next to the door and marked for students, are available to students. The kitchen is also used by the employees of TaiYo's office, and another refrigerator is reserved for employees.

  9. Take note, that the microwave needs to be switch off after eacht use, as otherwise it keeps making peep sounds. muuten laite jää piippaamaan. Ylioppilaskunnan keittiökoneita (mikroaaltouuni, kahvinkeitin, vedenkeitin) saa käyttää, kunhan toimii huolellisesti ja puhdistaa ne käytön jälkeen. 

  10. If you break something or find something broken, please report it to the Student Union office asap. 

  11. If a kitchen user doesn’t clean up their own mess or breaks things, the Student Union can impose them to clean up the kitchen or to compensate the broken items. If a kitchen user neglects these terms of use repeatedly, the Student Union can cancel their access to the kitchen. (N.B. The electronic key system allows us to check afterwards who has used the kitchen at a specific moment!)
