Isolate the appliance from the mains during every maintenance operation. To do this, remove the mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse. Repairs must be carried out by authorised specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety. No warranty claims can be lodged for any damage resulting from failure to observe these instructions. Do not store any substances that are sensitive to high temperatures, or which pose a fire hazard (e.g. cleaning agents or spray cans), in drawers or cupboards under the appliance. Note: If you have fitted the appliance cover VD 201-010 (special accessory) on the appliance, it must not be closed until the appliance has cooled down completely. Do not operate the appliance with the cover closed! Heat development may damage the appliance and the cover. Do not use the appliance cover as a surface for placing objects or for keeping things warm. Technical modifications reserved. VC 230 can be combined with the entire range of appliances in the Vario series. 1.2 Operating for the first time 1.3 About use Before operating the appliance for the first time, please pay attention to the following notes: – The appliance must be installed and connected by a specialist before it is operated for the first time. – If an earthing-pin plug is fitted on the appliance, it must be connected to a socket outlet with earthing contact that conforms to regulations. – The rating plate for this appliance is included with the instructions on a separate sheet. Store the rating plate in the same location as your operating and assembly instructions. – Conscientiously read through the operating and assembly instructions before operating the appliance for the first time. – Remove the packaging from the appliance and dispose of it properly. Pay attention to the fact that there are accessories in the base of the packaging. Keep packaging elements out of the reach of children. – Thoroughly clean the appliance and accessories before using them for the first time. This will eliminate any 'newness' smells and soiling (see chapter entitled Cleaning and care). – Tip: you are advised to have the new appliance added to any existing glass insurance. – Operation of the appliance must be discontinued immediately if improper use produces cracks, breaks or flaws on the cooking surface, with the result that live parts can come into contact directly or indirectly with seeping liquid or if there is a risk of injury. Remove the mains plug or actuate the corresponding mains fuses. Inform your after-sales service. – Before operating the appliance for the first time, check that the mains connection is in proper working order. – 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. – The glass-ceramic hob must not be used as a storage surface. – Place a cooking vessel on the corresponding hotplate before operating it. Do not remove the cooking vessel until you have switched off the hotplate. The size of pots and pans should correspond to the size of the hotplate. This will save you energy and time. – Observe caution with oils and fats. They may overheat and burn easily. – After use, turn all control knobs to 0. – In the event of malfunctions, first of all check the household fuses. If the problem has nothing to do with the power supply, please contact your specialist dealer or your local Gaggenau after- sales service. – A built-in temperature protection facility prevents overheating of the appliance. – Use of aluminium kitchenware or stainless steel kitchenware with aluminium bases may produce mother of pearl-coloured stains on your cooker. These will not have a detrimental effect on functioning of the cooking surface, though. The appliance is not suitable for preparing foodstuffs in aluminium foil or in plastic vessels. – Use the residual heat to warm up meals, for example. This will save you energy. – Remove any spilt food before opening the cover of the appliance. – The appliance cover must not be closed after use until the appliance has cooled down. 2.
