1.3 Caution      

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. 

– The appliance has a 

safety deactivation

Heating up of the appliance is switched off 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 10). 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.
