Safety instructions
for connection and functions
Before the appliance is installed, it must be checked whether the local
supply conditions (type of gas and gas pressure) and the settings of the
appliance correspond. All settings for the appliance are stated in this
user guide.
This appliance should not be connected to a pipe for extracting combustion
products. It must be fitted and connected in accordance with the
applicable conditions of installation. Particular attention should be paid to
suitable ventilation measures. The use of a gas cooker causes heat and
humidity to build up in the room where the cooker is installed. For this
reason it should always be ensured that the kitchen is well ventilated;
keep the ventilation slits open or provide for a mechanical ventilation
facility (e.g. a cooker hood). If the appliance is subject to particularly
intensive use or use over a long period of time, it might be necessary
to provide for additional ventilation, e.g. by opening a window or
operating a cooker hood at a high power level.
Küppersbusch cookers are made according to the applicable safety
regulations. Only Küpperbusch ovens may be connected to Küpperbusch hobs.
The appliance should only be connected to the gas mains by a qualified
gas fitter. The same applies for all adjustments and conversions. Attention
must be paid to the statutory regulations at all times. It is also
necessary to observe the instructions of the relevant gas board for
connecting up the appliance.
The cooker should only be installed in a well ventilated area.
Do not use the cooker for heating rooms.
If problems occur during operation the gas supply should be turned off
immediately.
The appliance should only be serviced and repaired by a qualified
technician in accordance with the applicable safety regulations. When
repair jobs are being carried out on any equipment running on gas, it is
always important to turn off the gas supply. Work carried out incorrectly
places your safety at risk.
If the cooker is run on liquefied petroleum gas (propane/ butane) it is vital to
ensure that all joints between the gas bottle and the cooker are secure and tight.
External flexible supply hoses should not be wedged into tight positions
or laid cross hot surfaces.
The surfaces of the oven, oven door and hob are very hot when in
operation. Always keep children away!
Connection leads of electrical appliances should not be placed on the
hot hob or be allowed to become jammed in the hot oven door.
Do not lift the appliance by the handle of the oven door.
We recommend that you have the appliance serviced at regular intervals.
WARNING! This appliance must be earthed!
for the hob
Cooker hoods above the hob must be fitted at a minimum distance of 650 mm.
The rings should not be ignited unless you are cooking something.
Always ensure that the burner covers are in the correct position.
Attention: The electronic automatic spark ignition will not work if there is
a power failure! In such cases please use matches.
Overheated fats and oils may spontaneously ignite. Food cooked in fat or
oil, e.g. chipped potatoes, should only be cooked under supervision.
Never extinguish ignited fats and oils with water! Put the lid on the pan,
switch off the ring and remove the pan from the hot hob.
Pressure cookers should be constantly supervised until the correct
pressure has been reached. First turn the burners of the rings up to
maximum flame and then (following the instructions of the manufacturer
of the pressure cooker) turn the heat down in good time.
The ventilation slits in the hob should not be covered over.
for the oven
When repairs are being carried out or oven light bulbs are being
replaced, the cooker must be disconnected from the mains (switch off
the fuse).
Never store any objects in your oven which could cause a hazard if the
oven is unintentionally switched on.
Take special care when working with a hot oven. Use a dish cloth, oven
gloves or similar.
The oven door must close well. In the event of damage to the door
sealing, hinges, sealing surfaces or to the glass pane, do not use your
cooker until it has been repaired and checked by a qualified and
authorised installer.
Caution! When opening and closing the oven door, do not reach into the
hinge. Risk of injury!
Always close the oven door completely when food is being cooked in
the oven.
Keep at least 5 cm away from the grill and top heat.
