WARNING
Risks in handling household
electrical appliances
Risk of electric shock!
Touching live parts may result in severe
injury or death.
Only use the appliance indoors. Do
■
not use in wet rooms or in the rain.
Do not operate or continue to oper-
■
ate the appliance if
it shows visible signs of damage,
–
for example, the connection cable
is defective;
it starts smoking or there is a burn-
–
ing smell;
it makes unusual sounds.
–
In such cases, switch off the circuit
breakers/unscrew the fuses and con-
tact our Service Centre (see „Our Ser-
vice Centre" on page GB-28).
Connection to the mains supply may
■
only be made by an authorised elec-
trician approved by the local energy
supply company (see „Our Service
Centre" on page GB-28). Only then will
you benefi t from our warranty and a
suffi cient level of safety. Unauthor-
ised persons may not connect the ap-
pliance to the mains supply. You can
endanger your life and that of subse-
quent users! This also applies to dis-
connection from the power supply
and dismantling the old appliance.
As the appliance can not be discon-
■
nected from the mains via an acces-
sible disconnecting device, an all-pole
disconnecting device in accordance
with overvoltage category III must
be connected within the house in-
stallation with at least 3 mm contact
clearance; this includes fuses, circuit
breakers and guards.
Before connecting the device, switch
■
off the relevant electrical circuit(s)
(switch off circuit breakers or unscrew
fuses).
Never open the housing.
■
Never try to repair a defective or sus-
■
pected defective appliance yourself.
You can put your own and future us-
ers' lives in danger. Only authorised
specialists are allowed to carry out
this repair work.
Do not operate the appliance with an
■
external timer or a separate remote
control system.
Do not insert any objects into or
■
through the openings in the housing.
Ensure that children are not able to
insert objects either.
To replace the cooking compartment
■
light, fi rst switch off the oven, then
switch off the circuit breakers/un-
screw the fuses.
Only replace the light bulb when the
oven is no longer hot.
If there are cracks in the glass ceram-
■
ic hob, do not continue to cook on it.
Instead immediately disconnect the
hob from the mains supply (switch
off circuit breaker(s)/unscrew fuse[s])
and then contact our Service Centre
(see „Our Service Centre" on page
GB-28).
