• When disconnecting the unit from the wall outlet, never pull the power
cord, grasp the plug end and disconnect it by removing it from the
receptacle.
• Do not immerse the power cord or the plug in water or any other
liquid.
• Check the appliance and the power cord for damage regularly.
• Do not switch on the appliance if it has been damaged.
• Unless the appliance is in operation, ensure that all its controls are
switched off.
• Do not manipulate with an open flame (e.g. singeing) under the appli-
ance. If you remove a cooking vessel from a gas burner, reduce its
flame to minimum or turn it off!
• Caution! Risk of fire! Care must be taken to ensure that the diameter of
the gas burners on the gas cooker or the cooking plate corresponds to
that of cooking utensils used. If cooking vessels with a diameter lower
than recommended are used, the flame could start to burn around the
cooking vessel resulting in a risk of melting plastic handles.
• While deep frying or frying of food, observe this food all the time. In
the case of oil overheating, there is a risk of fire!
• Ensure that the flames do not get too close to the appliance.
• Observe intervals for replacement and cleaning of filters (at least every
2-3 months). Failure to observe these requirements results in a risk of
fire due to fat accumulating in the filters!
• All the respective current standards and official regulations must be
observed relating to the removal of the extracted air.
• A ventilation duct diameter for the removal of the extracted air should
be approximately the same or larger than that of the hood’s flexible
outlet duct.
• Extracted air should not be led to a chimney intended for discharge of
flue gases and combustion products or a shaft serving for ventilation
of rooms where fireplaces are situated.
• When the appliance and fireplaces are in operation simultaneously,
vacuum in the room should not be higher than 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
• Do not use any accessories other than those recommended by the
manufacturer.
• Do not use accessories with damaged surface treatment or if it has
been worn out or has other defects.
• Do not use any corrosive cleaning agents for cleaning. Maintenance
and cleaning on a regular basis extend the lifetime of the appliance.
• Children should not clean and maintain the appliance unless they are
at least 8 years old and under supervision.
