Important safety information
Read these instructions carefully. Only then will you be able to
operate your appliance safely and correctly. Retain the
instruction manual and installation instructions for future use or
for subsequent owners.
The appliance can only be used safely if it is correctly installed
according to the safety instructions. The installer is responsible
for ensuring that the appliance works perfectly at its installation
location.
This appliance is intended for domestic use and the household
environment only. The appliance is not intended for use
outside. Do not leave the appliance unattended during
operation. The manufacturer is not liable for damage which is
caused by improper use or incorrect operation.
This appliance is intended for use up to a maximum height of
2000 metres above sea level.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children must not play with, on, or around the appliance.
Children must not clean the appliance or carry out general
maintenance unless they are at least 8 years old and are being
supervised.
Keep children below the age of 8 years old at a safe distance
from the appliance and power cable.
Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not
connect the appliance if it has been damaged in transport.
This appliance is not intended for operation with an external
clock timer or a remote control.
: Danger of suffocation!
Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never allow
children to play with packaging material.
: Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are drawn back in.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is
being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as room
air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.
Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil,
wood or coal-operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or
water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which
they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the
open air through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).
In combination with an activated vapour extractor hood, room
air is extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms - a
partial vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is supplied.
Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are
sucked back into the living space.
■ Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.
■ An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure
compliance with the limit.
Safe operation is possible only when the partial vacuum in the
place where the heat-producing appliance is installed does not
exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when the air
needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that
cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/
exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means.
In any case, consult your responsible Master Chimney Sweep.
He is able to assess the house's entire ventilation setup and will
suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour extractor hood
is operated exclusively in the circulating-air mode.
: Risk of fire!
■ Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire.
Replace the grease filter at least every two months.
Never operate the appliance without the grease filter.
Risk of fire!
■ Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Never
work with naked flames close to the appliance (e.g.
flambéing). Do not install the appliance near a heat-
producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g. wood or coal) unless
a closed, non-removable cover is available. There must be no
flying sparks.
Risk of fire!
■ Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or
oil unattended. Never use water to put out burning oil or fat.
Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid,
fire blanket or something similar.
Risk of fire!
■ When gas burners are in operation without any cookware
placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. A ventilation
appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged
or catch fire. Only operate the gas burners with cookware on
them.
Risk of fire!
■ Operating several gas burners at the same time gives rise to
a great deal of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above
the cooker may become damaged or catch fire. Never
operate two gas burners simultaneously on the highest flame
for longer than 15 minutes. One large burner of more than 5
kW (wok) is equivalent to the power of two gas burners.
: Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in operation. Never
touch hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance.
: Risk of injury!
■ Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges.
Wear protective gloves.
Risk of injury!
■ Items placed on the appliance may fall down. Do not place
any objects on the appliance.
: Risk of electric shock!
■ A defective appliance may cause electric shock. Never switch
on a defective appliance. Unplug the appliance from the
mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.
Contact the after-sales service.
Risk of electric shock!
■ Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried
out and damaged power cables replaced by one of our
trained after-sales technicians. If the appliance is defective,
unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit
breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
Risk of electric shock!
■ Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners,
which can result in an electric shock.
