1. Important notes  
1.1 For your safety  
Damaged appliances must not be operated.  
In the event of malfunctions, first of all check  
the household fuses. If the malfunction has nothing  
to do with the power supply, please contact your  
specialist dealer or your responsible Gaggenau  
after-sales service. Repairs must be carried out by  
authorised specialists, thus ensuring electrical  
safety.  
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.  
Also observe the assembly instructions!  
Connecting cables must not come into contact  
No warranty claims can be lodged in the event  
of damage caused by failure to observe these  
instructions.  
with hot cooking surfaces.  
Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours  
must not be extracted!  
Fire risk! It is not permitted to flambé meals next  
to a hob ventilator that is in operation.  
The user is responsible for expert use and the  
perfect condition of the appliance.  
You may only ever use a grill or a deep fryer at  
the same time as the hob ventilator if it is under  
constant supervision.  
Never operate the appliance without a grease  
filter.  
This will involve a fire risk!  
Only ever operate the appliance under  
supervision. The appliance is intended solely for  
use in the household and must not be put to any  
other uses.  
Do not place any objects on the appliance; this  
will have a detrimental effect on functioning.  
If you have installed the hob extractors VL 040/041  
next to a gas appliance, each has to be fitted with  
an air baffle LS 041 while cooking. The air baffle not  
only improves the air flow of the extractor next to a  
gas appliance, but also prevents a flame which has  
been set to a low level from being extinguished.  
Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk! Only  
ever deep-fry next to the appliance under constant  
supervision. Pay attention to cleaning the grease  
filter on a regular basis.  
Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaning  
apparatus or with water pressure because this  
poses a risk of short-circuits.  
Technical modifications reserved.  
Isolate the appliance from the mains during every  
maintenance operation. To do this, remove the  
mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse. If the  
mains plug is not accessible, the appliance must be  
deenergised by means of the domestic installation  
fuse.

Place the grease filter in the dishwasher with the  
opening pointing down to ensure that no food  
remainders will stay on it.
