Gaggenau VL 040-107, VL 041-107 manual Important notes, For your safety

1. Important notes

1.1 For your safety

Damaged appliances must not be operated.

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 with hot cooking surfaces.

Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours must not be extracted!

The user is responsible for expert use and the perfect condition of the appliance.

Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.

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.

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.

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.

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.

No warranty claims can be lodged in the event of damage caused by failure to observe these instructions.

Fire risk! It is not permitted to flambé meals next to a hob ventilator that is in operation.

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.

This will involve a fire risk!

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.

Technical modifications reserved.
