Before Initial Use
NOTES
•
There may still be some production residues on the device. To avoid harmful effects to
your health, clean the device thoroughly before you
fi
rst use it (see the “Cleaning and
Care” chapter).
1. Remove all packaging materials and any possible protective
fi
lms used for protection during
transportation.
Never remove the rating plate and any possible warnings!
2. Set up and connect the device (see “Setting Up and Connecting the Device” chapter).

trial run to remove any possible production residues. To do this, follow the instructions in
the “Operation” and “Preparation” chapters.
When the device is
fi
rst used, production-related additives (e. g. grease) may cause a
small amount of smoke and / or an odour to be produced. This is normal and not a
device defect.

Setting Up and Connecting the Device
NOTES
•
Only connect the device to a socket with safety contacts that is properly installed and
matches the technical data of the device. The socket must also be readily accessible after
connection so that the connection to the mains can quickly be isolated.
•

not
use the device in conjunction with extension cables.
•
Always set up the device with a clear space at the sides (at least 20 cm) and clear space
above it (at least 30 cm) on a
fl
at, solid and heat-resistant surface that is resistant to
splashing.
•
Do not place the device below kitchen wall units or similar cupboards. The rising steam
could cause damage to them!

The surfaces of furniture may possibly contain elements which can attack and soften the
adjustable feet of the device. If necessary, place a suitable pad below the adjustable feet.
1. Fully unwind the mains cable and connect it to the appliance connection (
10
