IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
7
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as
intended by the manufacturer.
If the power cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by a
qualified service technician.
During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the ventilation
hood must be disconnected from the electrical supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply if one of the following
applies:
- The circuit breakers on the electrical service panel are tripped.
- The screw-type fuses on the electrical service panel have been
removed.
- The power cord (if present) has been unplugged from the socket
(pull the plug not the cord).
Correct use
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A COOKTOP GREASE
FIRE:
- a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Heat oils slowly
on low or medium settings.
- b) Always turn the hood on when cooking at a high heat.
- c) Clean the ventilation hood frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter.
- d) Use the proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for
the size of the cooking area.
Open flames are a fire hazard.
The use of an open flame under the ventilation hood is not
permitted. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an
open flame. When switched on, the ventilation hood could draw
flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire
hazard.
