Causes of damage

Caution!

Risk of heat damage to adjacent appliances or 
kitchen units:  

If the appliance is in operation for 

an extended period, heat and moisture will be 
generated. Additional ventilation is required.Open 
the window or switch on an extractor hood that 
discharges the extracted air and moisture outside 
the building.

Risk of damage to the appliance due to the build-
up of heat:  

Do not heat roasters, frying pans or 

grill stones using more than one burner at a time.

Malfunction:  

Always turn the control knob to the 

"Off" position when the appliance is not being 
used.

Environmental protection

Environmental protection

The sections below list a number of energy-saving tips 

and provide information on disposing of your appliance.

Saving energy

Choose a burner of roughly the same size as your 
pan. Place the cookware in the middle.

Use small saucepans for small quantities. Using a 
large saucepan with little in it consumes a lot of 
energy.

Always place suitable lids on saucepans. Cooking 
without a lid consumes significantly more energy. 
Use a glass lid so that you can see into the pan 
without having to lift the lid.

Cook with only a little water. This will save energy 
and preserve the vitamins and minerals in 
vegetables.

Switch to a lower heat setting in good time. This will 
save energy.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly 
manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance 
with European Directive 2012/19/EU 
concerning used electrical and electronic 
appliances (waste electrical and electronic 
equipment - WEEE). The guideline 
determines the framework for the return and 
recycling of used appliances as applicable 
throughout the EU.
