Miele DA 8-2 - Manual (Page 6)

Warning and safety instructions
Before installation and before using
the appliance for the first time read
these operating instructions care-
fully to avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the appliance.
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only.
Do not let small children play with
the extractor or its controls.
This extractor meets all statutory
safety requirements.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective
grounding system. It is imperative that
this basic safety requirement is met. If
there is any doubt, have the electrical
system of the house checked by a
qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for damage caused by the
lack or inadequacy of an effective
grounding system.
Installation and repairs should only
be performed by qualified and
trained personnel. Repairs by unquali-
fied personnel could be dangerous.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
guarantee the required safety of the ap-
pliance.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by removing the fuse
or tripping the circuit breaker. Grasp
the plug, not the cord, when unplugg-
ing from the wall.
Do not use an open flame beside
the extractor. When turned on, the
extractor could draw flames into the fil-
ter. Grease particles trapped in the fil-
ter will then present a fire hazard.
When the extractor is installed
beside a gas cooktop, ensure that
the burners being used are always
covered by a saucepan or pot.
Heat given off by the flames could
otherwise damage the extractor.
