1. Important notes
1.1 For your safety
Damaged appliances must not be operated.
In the event of malfunctions, first of all check
the household fuses. If the malfunction has nothing
to do with the power supply, please contact your
specialist dealer or your responsible Gaggenau
after-sales service. Repairs must be carried out by
authorised specialists, thus ensuring electrical
safety.
The appliance must only be connected by an
authorised specialist, paying attention to the
relevant regulations of the power supply companies
and the regional construction regulations.
Also observe the assembly instructions!
Connecting cables must not come into contact
No warranty claims can be lodged in the event
of damage caused by failure to observe these
instructions.
with hot cooking surfaces.
Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours
must not be extracted!
Fire risk! It is not permitted to flambé meals next
to a hob ventilator that is in operation.
The user is responsible for expert use and the
perfect condition of the appliance.
You may only ever use a grill or a deep fryer at
the same time as the hob ventilator if it is under
constant supervision.
Never operate the appliance without a grease
filter.
This will involve a fire risk!
Only ever operate the appliance under
supervision. The appliance is intended solely for
use in the household and must not be put to any
other uses.
Do not place any objects on the appliance; this
will have a detrimental effect on functioning.
If you have installed the hob extractors VL 040/041
next to a gas appliance, each has to be fitted with
an air baffle LS 041 while cooking. The air baffle not
only improves the air flow of the extractor next to a
gas appliance, but also prevents a flame which has
been set to a low level from being extinguished.
Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk! Only
ever deep-fry next to the appliance under constant
supervision. Pay attention to cleaning the grease
filter on a regular basis.
Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaning
apparatus or with water pressure because this
poses a risk of short-circuits.
Technical modifications reserved.
Isolate the appliance from the mains during every
maintenance operation. To do this, remove the
mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse. If the
mains plug is not accessible, the appliance must be
deenergised by means of the domestic installation
fuse.
