Safety instructions and warnings

Children

Always supervise any children in the

vicinity of the appliance. Do not allow children to play with the unit.

Children should use the grill only if

they have received sufficient instruction to operate it safely. They must be able to understand and recognize the potential hazards of improper operation.

Take special care that children do

not put their fingers under the retracting browning unit. There is a risk of injury. .

The ceramic surface of the browning

unit and the ledge become hot during operation, and remain so for quite some time after being switched off. Keep children away from the appliance until it has cooled down enough that there is no longer any danger of burns.

The heating element of the browning

unit glows very brightly. Therefore, do not allow children to look directly at the heating element.

Packing materials (cling wrap,

styrofoam) can be dangerous for children because of the danger of suffocation. Keep such materials out of the reach of children, and dispose of them as promptly as possible.

Do not keep any items that might

attract children in the storage areas above or behind the appliance. Otherwise, a child might be tempted to climb on the grill and risk being burned.

To avoid injury from burns and

scalding, ensure that children are unable to pull down hot dishes onto themselves from the appliance.

Safety instructions and warnings

Technical safety

Only skilled persons duly authorized

by the manufacturer may install this appliance or perform maintenance and repair work on it. Work performed by unqualified persons carries the risk of serious harm to the user, for which the manufacturer will not be held liable.

Before installation, check the

appliance for visible signs of external damage. NEVER under any circumstances operate a damaged appliance. It may endanger your safety.

The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed if it is grounded in compliance with applicable safety regulations. Is is very important to make sure that this essential safety requirement is met. In case of doubt, have a qualified electrician check the wiring. The manufacturer will not be held liable for damage or injury, such as electric shock, caused by a missing or broken grounding conductor.

Do NOT use a power bar or

extension cord to connect the appliance to the power supply. They do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g., danger of overheating).

For safety reasons, this appliance

must not be used as a free-standing device. It must be properly installed.

If the plug is removed from the

power cord, the appliance will need to be installed and connected by a qualified electrician. Please hire a qualified electrician who is thoroughly familiar with all applicable local and national power authority regulations, and who will carefully comply with these requirements. The manufacturer will not be held liable for damage caused by incorrect installation or connection.

If the power cord is damaged, it

must be replaced by a special cord (Type H 05 W-F, PVC insulated), which can be obtained from the manufacturer or from Customer Service.

Before plugging in the appliance,

ensure that the electrical rating (voltage and frequency, as indicated on the mo del data plate) corresponds to the household electrical supply. These ratings must match, in order to avoid damaging the appliance. If in doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.

Do not under any circumstances

open the appliance housing.

Tampering with the electrical connections, or altering the electrical or mechanical configuration, may endanger your safety and may impair the functioning of the appliance.

Safety instructions and warnings

Repair of the appliance during the

warranty period should be performed only by Customer Service personnel who are duly authorized by the manufacturer; otherwise any damage will not be covered by the warranty.

Before any maintenance or repair

work is performed, the appliance must be disconnected from the main power supply. It is electrically disconnected only when one of the following conditions is met:

the fuses or circuit breakers are

–

tripped.

– the screw-in type fuses are fully

unscrewed.

– the power cord is disconnected from

the electrical power supply. To disconnect appliances with plugs, pull on the plug itself, instead of on the cord.

Defective components should be

replaced by Miele original replacement parts only. Only these parts are guaranteed by the manufacturer to comply with safety requirements.

Correct use

The appliance becomes hot during

use and remains so for some time after being switched off. Caution: Danger of burns!

Protect your hands whenever

working with a hot appliance - wear oven mitts and use potholders, for example, making sure that they are not wet or damp. Moisture would only increase heat conductivity, potentially causing burns.

NEVER use the appliance to heat up

sealed containers, such as canned foods. The resulting build-up of pressure can cause containers to explode, with the risk of injury and burns.

Do not use the appliance as a

space heater. The high temperatures can cause easily flammable materials in the vicinity to catch fire. This will also reduce the lifespan of the appliance.

Do not operate the grill if there is a

defect or if the ceramic surface of the browning unit is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Immediately switch it off. Then disconnect it from the power supply. If you fail to follow these steps, there is a danger of electric shock!

Safety instructions and warnings

Do not set up or operate the

appliance in the open air.

Do not use the ledge for storage. If

the appliance is accidentally switched on or there is residual heat, there is the danger that any items located there will heat up and melt, depending on the materials involved, and generating a risk of fire and burns.

Do not keep heat-sensitive items in

proximity to the appliance. The appliance radiates heat during operation. There is the danger that such items - depending on the material - will heat up and ignite, or begin to melt or burn.

Never leave the grill unattended

while browning or warming food. It could burn and become inedible.

If hot fat or oil catches fire, NEVER

use water to douse the flames. Use a lid or a wet dishtowel, for example, to smother the fire.

If the appliance is plugged into a

nearby socket, check to be sure that the power cord does not come into contact with the hot appliance. This could damage the insulation on the cord. Danger of electrocution!

Make sure that the dishware used is

heat-resistant. NEVER use plastic dishes! Fire hazard!

To avoid scratching, never place

anything on the surface of the browning unit.

Use only dishes with smooth

undersurfaces. Rough undersides will scratch the ceramic surface. Move dishes by lifting rather than sliding them. This will help prevent scuffing and scratching.

Keep the appliance surfaces clean.

Grains of salt, sugar or sand may cause scratching.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Important Safety instructions.
