1.3 About use
– The appliance is intended solely for use in the
household and must not be put to any other uses.
– Use the appliance to prepare meals only. It must
not be used to heat up the room in which it is
installed.
– The appliance is suitable for use with water
only. The appliance must not be used for deep
frying.
– Do not store any combustible items in your
appliance. During operation, only ever leave
the items you need inside the appliance.
– Only ever use the intended cooking inserts.
Caution! Risk of burns!
Use the special handle to remove and insert the
cooking inserts.
– The (Heating) symbol in the control panel
goes off as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.
– Return the “Temperature" knob to “0" after
cooking.
– Clean the appliance in regular intervals.
The appliance should be cleaned after each
operation.
– A built-in temperature protection facility
prevents overheating of the appliance.
The appliance must not be operated empty
(cooking liquid only, no oil etc.!). If the appliance
is operated empty, it will switch off automatically
and the (Limiter) symbol will appear in the
display. If this is the case, turn the “Temperature"
control knob to the 0 position. Wait until the
appliance has cooled down. Pour cooking liquid
into the appliance and wait until the appliance
has cooled down to such an extent that the
symbol (limiter) no longer appears on the display.
Note: If the symbol (limiter) appears in the
display, this may have several causes (see
chapter “Structure and operating principle").
– The appliance features a holiday protection
feature. Heating up of the appliance is
cancelled after 4 hours if it is not operated by
way of the “Temperature" control knob during
this time. Dashes are shown on the display.
– The cooking tub may be filled with water as
maximum up to the foaming edge and as
minimum down to the bottom marking.
– Make sure that the steam outlet opening is not
covered up during operation.
– Caution!
When hot, the glass cover must not be placed on
a wet and cold worktop or cooled under cold
running water. It might otherwise crack. Replace
the glass cover immediately if it is damaged. If
glass splinters should enter into the cooking
basin as the result of a damaged glass cover,
bear in mind that the foodstuffs prepared in it are
no longer suitable for consumption. The cover
must always be fitted well on the appliance.
– Do not place items on the glass cover.
– You should observe extreme caution when
draining hot water without a fixed water
connection. Risk of burns! Use a temperature-
resistant receptacle with an adequate capacity
(e.g. a 10 l bucket). Use the drain installation set
(see installation note).
– The door(s) of the base cabinet must be
locked if you do not have a permanent drain
connection and there are small children in your
household.
This reduces the risk of burns.
– If you have a permanent water drain connection,
pay attention to the applicable regulations.
– If malfunctions should occur, you should first
check whether the child lock is activated (see
Page 9). Check the household fuses. If the
problem has nothing to do with the power supply,
please contact your specialist dealer or your
responsible Gaggenau customer service.
