Congratulations on buying your new
“Vario” appliance.
Before switching your appliance on for the first
time, we would like you to familiarize yourself with
your new appliance. In this manual you will find
important notes on safety and operation. These
will serve to ensure your personal safety and the
lasting value of your appliance.
You will find notes on Page 4 that you ought to
observe before operating the appliance for the
first time.
The chapters entitled “Features" and “Operation"
tell you all about what your appliance can do and
how you operate it.
The chapter entitled “Cleaning and Care" gives
tips on how to keep your appliance looking good.
And now we wish you lots of fun with your
deep fryer.
1. Read All Instructions.
2. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching
over the heated surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the surface units should be
avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the
risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of cabinets.
3. Important instructions
a) Ensure that this appliance is properly
connected and grounded by a qualified electrician.
b) Never use this appliance for warming or hea-
ting the room.
c) Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children
should not be left alone or unattended in area
where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
d) Wear Proper Apparel – Loose fitting or han-
ging garments should never be worn while
using the appliance.
e) User Servicing – Do not repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specifically
recomended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
f) Storage in or on Appliance – Flammable ma-
terials should not be stored in an oven or near
surface units.
g) Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires – Smother
fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
h) Use Only Dry Potholders – Moist or damp po-
tholders on hot surface may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth.
i) Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at
High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
k) Use extreme caution when moving the grease
kettle or disposing of hot grease.
4. DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR
AREAS NEAR UNITS. Heating elements may be
hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near heating elements may become hot enough to
cause burns. During and after use, do not touch
or let clothing or other flammable materials
contact heating elements or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool.
5. CAUTION:
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above a range. Children climbing on the
appliance to reach items could be seriosly injured.
6. Note – To avoid jeopardising the electrical safety of the appliance, it is forbidden to use highpressure or steam jet cleaning devices.

For your safety
Do not operate the appliance if it is damaged.
The appliance must only be connected by
an authorised specialist, paying attention to
the relevant regulations of the power supply
companies and the regional construction
regulations.
Observe the assembly instructions!
The appliance could be damaged if connected
wrongly!
When connecting electrical appliances in the
proximity of the deep fryer, make sure that
connecting cables do not come into contact with
hot cooking surfaces.
Only operate the appliance under supervision.
Foodstuffs that are prepared in fat and oil must be
constantly supervised! Caution! Old or much used
fats and oils can ignite easily if they overheat.
Caution: Fire Risk! Do not store any combustible
objects in your appliance.
Caution! The appliance heats up during operation.
Keep children away.
Caution: Fire Risk! Keep naked flames away from
the appliance!
Observe particular caution when working with
water in the proximity of the warm appliance.
Explosion risk!
Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk if the
appliance is positioned under an extractor hood or
adjacent to a hob ventilator!
If a fire should break out, switch off the electricity at fuse point and close the appliance
cover. Smother burning fat or oil. Never
extinguish a deep fryer with water! Switch off
the extractor hood immediately because the
draught will otherwise intensify the fire!
To avoid jeopardising the electrical safety of the
appliance, do not use high-pressure or steam jet
cleaning devices.
Isolate the appliance from the mains during every
maintenance operation. To do this, remove the
mains plug or switch off the corresponding fuse.
Repairs must be carried out by authorised
specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety.
As the user, you are responsible for maintenance
and proper use in the household. No warranty
claims can be lodged for any damage resulting
from failure to observe these instructions.
Note:
the appliance cover 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.

About use
The appliance is intended solely for household use
and must not be put to any other uses.
Use the appliance to prepare meals only. Do not
use the appliance to heat up the room in which it is
installed.
The appliance must not be operated empty. If the
appliance is switched on empty, the temperature
control will switch off the appliance automatically.
Turn the “Temperature" control knob to the OFF
position. Wait until the appliance has cooled down.
Only use the intended deep frying baskets.
The deep frying oil/fat will foam over if foodstuffs
are too wet or if excessive quantities are inserted.
Risk of burns!
Keep ventilation openings open (doors, extractor
hoods and windows).
Top up oil or fat as soon as it is below the minimum
level (bottom marking). Caution: there is a fire
risk if the oil/fat level should drop below the
bottom marking!
Switch off the appliance after use.
The door(s) of the base cabinet must be locked if
there are small children in your household. This
reduces the risk of burns.
Fire risk! Clean your appliance at regular intervals
and change the oil/fat regularly. Old/soiled fat must
be replaced if it becomes brown, has an unpleasant
smell and/or smokes prematurely (340 - 350 °F). Old
oil/fat tends to foam over easily and has a lower
ignition temperature.
Built-in overheating protection prevents overheating
of the appliance and of surrounding kitchen
furniture.
In the event of malfunction, first check your household fuses. If the power supply is in proper working
order, but the appliance is still not functioning,
please inform your specialist dealer or your nearest
Gaggenau after-sales service.
Operating for the first time
Remove the packaging from the appliance and
dispose of it according to local regulations.
Be careful to remove all accessories from the
packaging. Keep packaging elements and plastic
bags away from children.
Check the appliance for transport damage before
installing it.
The appliance must be installed and connected by
an authorised specialist before operation. Before
operating the appliance for the first time, make
sure that the mains connection is in proper working
order.
The serial number of the appliance can be found on
the quality control slip which is included with these
instructions. This quality control slip should be kept,
for guarantee reasons, together with your operating
and assembly instructions.
Read through these instructions attentively before
operating your appliance for the first time.
Thoroughly clean the appliance and accessories
before using them for the first time. This will eliminate any 'newness’ smells and soiling (see chapter
“Cleaning and care”).
