Safety instructions
Connection and operation
■
Only one of the gas ring hobs supplied may be connected to this
Küppersbusch oven.
■
The gas cooker must be installed and connected in accordance with the
applicable conditions of installation.
■
The device may only be operated in well-ventilated spaces as gas flames
consume oxygen and cause a build-up of humidity and heat:
Keep at least one aperture such as e.g. a window or door open, or have a
ventilation system such as a cooking ventilation hood running in extraction
/ circulatory fan operating mode.
■
All work, such as connection to the gas mains or adjusting and converting
the appliance, should only be carried out by a qualified fitter. The legally
recognised regulations and the conditions for connection laid down by the
local gas board should be observed in all details.
■
Never use the appliance to heat a room.
■
In the event of any trouble during operation, immediately turn off the supply
of gas.
■
The appliance should only be serviced and repaired by a qualified technician
in accordance with the applicable safety regulations. Always ensure to
disconnect the appliance from the energy supply when repairs are being
carried out on facilities for directing the flow of gas. For your own safety,
do not allow anyone other than a qualified service technician to install,
service or repair this appliance.
■
If the cooker is run on liquefied petroleum gas (propane/butane) it is vital
to ensure that all joints between the gas bottle and the cooker are secure
and tight.
■
External flexible supply hoses should not be wedged into tight positions or
laid cross hot surfaces.
■
The surfaces of the cooker, the oven door and the appliance become very
hot in use. Always keep children away!
■
Make sure that trailing leads for kitchen appliances cannot become trapped
in the oven door.
■
Never use steam and/or pressure cleaners to clean the oven! Damage
caused to your appliance by cleaning it this way can make it
lethally
dangerous
.
■
Attention! The electronic one-hand spark ignition will not work if there is a
power failure. In such cases please use matches.
■
Do not lift the appliance by the handle of the oven door.
Cooking zones
■
The rings should not be ignited unless you are cooking something.
■
Always ensure that the plug-on rings and the burner tops are in the correct
position.
■
Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Food involving the use
of fats and oils, e.g. chips, may only be cooked under supervision. Never
extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on, turn off the
cooking zone and remove the pan.
■
Always keep pressure cookers under observation until the right pressure has
been reached. First turn the burners of the rings up to maximum flame and
then (following the instructions of the manufacturer of the pressure cooker)
turn the heat down in good time.
■
The ventilation slits in the hob should not be covered over!
■
If the glass ceramic surface shows any signs of cracks, fissures or
breakage, switch off the appliance immediately and call Customer service.
Oven
■
When carrying out repairs and replacing oven light bulbs, the cooker must
be disconnected from the mains (switch off the fuse).
■
Do not spend more than 15 seconds attempting to ignite the oven flame
when the door is closed. If the attempt is unsuccessful after this time
period, open the oven door and ventilate for at least one minute before
trying again.
■
Never store any objects in your oven which could cause a hazard if the oven
is unintentionally switched on.
■
Take special care when working in the hot oven and always use an oven
cloth, oven gloves or similar protection.
■
When grilling (acc. No. 545), keep at least 5 cm distance from the grill.
■
The grill (acc. No. 545) is removable. Only remove it when the oven is OFF
and the grill has cooled down.
■
The oven must not be used or
cleaned with the grill socket open.
The dummy plug or the infrared
grill (acc. No. 545) must always be
inserted!
Treat it like any other socket:
Never wipe the socket and ensure
that no water or oven spray enters
it.
■
The oven door must form a good seal when closed. In the event of damage
to the door sealing, hinges, sealing surfaces or to the glass pane, do not
use your cooker until it has been repaired and checked by a qualified and
authorised trained installer.
■
During use, open and shut the oven door with care to prevent the burner
flames being extinguished.
■
Attention! When opening and closing the oven door, do not reach into the
hinge. Risk of injury!
■
Always close the oven door completely when preparing food in the oven.
