Before Initial Use

PLEASE NOTE!

• You may notice a strange smell the first time you use the device. We therefore recommend that you initially operate the device for a few minutes WITHOUT any contents in order to burn off any production residues that may remain.

2. Clean the device with a slightly damp, soft cloth and a little mild washing-up liquid.
3. Clean the above mentioned accessory parts with a little mild washing-up liquid and warm water or in the diswasher.
   Over time residues of fat can burn into the heat shield (10). This leads to discolouration, but does not affect the performance of the device.
4. Dry the device and the accessories thoroughly before you assemble and / or store away the device.
5. Store the device in a dry place that is protected from sunlight and is not accessible to children and animals.

Disposal

Dispose of the packaging material in an environmentally friendly manner so that it can be recycled.

The adjacent symbol (crossed-out bin underlined) means that used devices should not be disposed of in the domestic waste, but should instead be taken to special collection and return systems.

Owners of used devices from private households can take them free of charge to the collection points of the public waste disposal authorities or the disposal points which are set up by manufacturers and distributors under the Electrical Equipment Act so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way and valuable raw materials can be recovered. If they are not disposed of properly, toxic ingredients may escape into the environment and cause harm to the health of humans, animals and plants. Businesses which market electrical and electronic devices are also obliged to take back used devices.

Waste prevention makes an even more valuable contribution to protecting the environment. This means if possible, as well as continuing to use or repair a device yourself, passing it on to another user also represents an ecologically beneficial alternative to disposal.
