About Use
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.!
Use of a gas cooker
generates heat and humidity
in the room where it is installed. This is why atten -
tion must be paid to good kitchen ventilation.
The natural
ventilation openings
must be kept
unobstructed. Prolonged use of the appliance
with several or all rings may call for additional
venti lation such as opening a window or a door,
or stronger air extraction by an extractor hood.
To guarantee good combustion, the room in
which the appliance is installed must have
a minimum volume of 20 m
3
and must possess
a door that opens outdoors or a window that
can be opened.
Keep the ventilation openings at the back of the
appliance free at all times.
Only use the burners after placing pots and
pans on them. Do not heat up any empty pots
or pans
; this may result in a build-up of heat. Use
pots and pans with thicker bottoms because heat
distribution is particularly improved in the low
setting. Using pots and pans which are adapted to
the burner size increases the efficiency of the heat
from the gas flame, thereby reducing power costs.
It is not permitted to use roasting pans, frying pans
or grill stones heated simultaneously by several
burners because the resulting heat build-up may
damage the appliance.
Do not let adults or children operate the appliance
unsupervised:
– if they are mentally or physically unable to use
the appliance safely and correctly
– if they don’t have the knowledge and
experience to use the appliance safely and
correctly.
Pots with a diameter of less than
90 mm
or more
than
280 mm
should not be used. When using large
pots, pay attention to keeping to a minimum
distance of
50 mm
between the cooking vessel and
combustible surroundings.
Do not use any pots or pans that protrude over the
edge of the gas cooker.
Switch the burners to the low setting whenever you
remove pots or pans briefly. In this way, you reduce
the risk of burns when working next to naked
flames; you also save gas and reduce pollution.
Whenever the gas hob is fitted under an extractor
hood, always cover the rings with pots or pans.
Otherwise, parts of the extractor hood may become
damaged by the extreme heat development or
grease residues in the filter may ignite.
Ensure an adequate supply of air when using
an extractor hood operating in the extraction
mode !
The appliance cannot be used during a
power
failure
.
In the event of malfunctions, please inform your
specialist dealer or your nearest Gaggenau after-
sales service.
Caution, risk of burns!
Do not operate the
appliance with the cover closed! Do not close the
appliance cover until the appliance has cooled
down completely. Do not use the appliance cover as
a surface for placing objects or for keeping things
warm. Wipe away spills before opening the
appliance cover.
