1.2 Operating for the first time
Before operating the appliance for the first time,
please pay attention to the following notes:
– Conscientiously read through the operating
and assembly instructions before operating the
appliance for the first time.
– 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.

dispose of it properly. The packaging consists of
foil and cardboard.
– Pay attention to the fact that there are
accessories in the base of the packaging.
Keep packaging elements away from children.

accessories before using them for the first time.
This will eliminate any 'newness' smells and
soiling (see chapter entitled Cleaning and care).

by a specialist before it is operated for the first
time. Before operating the appliance for the first
time, make sure that the mains connection is in
proper working order.

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

– 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.
– Return the control knob to 0 after grilling.
