location in relation to mean sea level.
Failure to adjust the boiling point may result in
malfunctions.

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

– 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.
