PRELIMINARY NOTES
If the power supply cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the ma-
nufacturer, its customer services or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid ha-
zards.
The appliance must not be operated with an external timer or an external telecontrol
system. The reliable and safe operation of the hob is only guaranteed if it is connected
to the public electricity network.
The hob must not be connected to a stand-alone inverter that is used with an auto-
nomous power supply, such as solar power. Otherwise a safety switch-off may occur
when switching on the hob due to voltage spikes. The electronics may be damaged.
The electrical safety of the hob is only guaranteed when it is connected to an earth
conductor system installed according to the regulations. This basic safety
requirement must exist.
Danger of electric shock!
Do not clean the hood with a steam cleaner or water pressure cleaner. The hood
must be disconnected from the power supply prior to cleaning.
Children in the household
Children under eight years of age must be kept away from the hob, unless they are
continuously supervised.
Children over eight years of age must only operate the hob without supervision if they
have been shown how to operate it safely. Children must be able to recognise and un-
derstand the possible hazards caused through incorrect operation. Children must not
clean the hob without supervision. Supervise children who are close to the hob.
Never allow children to play with the hob. The hob becomes hot during operation and
remains hot for some time after it is switched off. Keep children away from the hob until
it has cooled down to avoid any risk of burning.
Risk of burning!
Do not store objects that may be of interest to children in storage areas above
or behind the hob. Otherwise the children will be enticed to climb onto the appliance.
Risk of burning and scalding!
Turn pot and pan handles sideways over the working surface so that children
cannot pull them off and burn themselves.
Risk of suffocation!
Children can wrap themselves in packaging material ( e.g. foils) when playing or pull it
over their head and suffocate. Keep packaging material away from children.
Design
From an aesthetic perspective, the extractor hood may differ from the
drawings in these operating instructions. However, the operating ins-
tructions, maintenance, cleaning and installation procedures are always
the same. The drawings and plans must be consulted in the case of
customer-specific products.
