~
Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
~
During installation, maintenance and
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
–
the mains fuse is disconnected,
–
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn from the
socket, or
– it is switched off at the isolator.
~
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
~
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the guarantee.
Correct use
~
The appliance is hot when in use,
and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off. Do not touch it
whilst it could still be hot.
~
For added protection, it is advisable
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance.
Ensure that they do not come into
contact with the flames. Do not use
large cloths, tea towels or similar as the
ends could touch the flames and catch
fire. Take care not to let the gloves get
damp or wet, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more
quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
~
Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
~
Do not use the appliance to heat up
the room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.
~
This appliance must not be set up or
operated in the open air.
~
Make sure all the components of the
gas burners have been correctly
assembled before switching on.
