When using kitchen appliances, basic safety precautions
must be followed, including those in the following pages.
General notes
Examine the appliance after unpacking it. In the event of
transport damage, do not plug it in.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR
INJURY TOPERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
▯Use this unit only in the manner intended by the
manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
manufacturer.
▯Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at
service panel and lock out the service disconnect to
prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnect cannot be locked,
securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.
WARNING
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
▯Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
▯Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and
exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the
heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA), and the American
Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
▯When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
▯Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use
this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
This appliance is not intended for operation with an
external clock timer or a remote control.
Have an appropriate fire extinguisher available, nearby,
highly visible and easily accessible near the appliance.
Fire Safety
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure
to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces
within walls, ceilings, attics, crawl spaces or garages.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A GREASE FIRE:
a. Never leave surface units unattended at high settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b. Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries
Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).
c. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.
d. Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.
CAUTION
For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires
with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.

9IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN
THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
▯SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie
sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE
CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not
go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
▯NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be
burned.
▯DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or
towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
▯Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
- You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and
you already know how to operate it.
- The fire is small and contained in the area where it
started.
- The fire department is being called.
- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system
during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through fire
to turn it off.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
When gas burners are in operation without any cookware
placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. A
ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may
become damaged or catch fire. Only operate the gas
burners with cookware on them.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
During simultaneous use of multiple gas burners, a great
deal of heat is created. A ventilation device located
above it can become damaged or catch fire. Never use
two gas burners together at maximum heat for longer
than 15 minutes. One large burner with over 17,000
BTU/hr (5 kW) (wok) is equal to the wattage of two gas
burners.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Hot oil and fat catch fire fast. Never leave hot oil and fat
unsupervised. Never extinguish a fire with water. Switch
off the element/burner. Suffocate flames carefully with a
lid, a fire blanket or similar.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease filter can ignite.
Clean the grease filter at least every two months, or
more often if needed.
Never operate the appliance without the grease filter.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease filter can catch fire. Never
work with a naked flame near the appliance (e.g.
flambéing). Install the unit near a heat-producing
appliance for solid fuels (e.g. wood or coal) only if there
is a closed, non-detachable cover. There must be no
flying sparks.
Burn Prevention
WARNING
RISK OF BURNS
The accessible parts get hot during operation. Never
touch hot parts. Keep children away.
Child Safety
When children become old enough to use the appliance,
it is the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to
ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by
qualified persons.
Remove all tape and packaging before using the
appliance. Destroy the packaging after unpacking the
appliance. Never allow children to play with packaging
material.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on
any part of an appliance, especially a door, warming
drawer, or storage drawer. This can damage the
appliance, and the unit may tip over, potentially causing
severe injury.
Do not allow children to use this appliance unless closely
supervised by an adult. Children and pets should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where the appliance
is in use. They should never be allowed to play in its
vicinity, whether or not the appliance is in use.

breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.
This appliance must be properly installed and grounded
by a qualified technician. Connect only to properly
grounded outlet. Refer to Installation Instructions for
details.
This appliance is intended for normal family household
use only. It is not approved for outdoor use. See the
Statement of Limited Product Warranty. If you have any
questions, contact the manufacturer.
Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,
flammables or nonfood products in or near this
appliance. It is specifically designed for use when
heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive chemicals
in heating or cleaning will damage the appliance and
could result in injury.
Do not operate this appliance if it is not working properly,
or if it has been damaged. Contact an authorized
servicer.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in this manual. Refer all
servicing to a factory authorized service center.
CAUTION

CAUTION
Turn power off at breaker before removing a damaged
bulb. Do not touch the bulbs immediately after use. The
bulbs will remain hot for several minutes.
WARNING
Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and power
to the appliance has been turned off before replacing the
light bulb(s). Failure to do so could result in electrical
shock or burns.The lenses (if equipped) must be in place
when using the appliance.The lenses (if equipped) serve
to protect the light bulb from breaking.The lenses (if
equipped) are made of glass. Handle carefully to avoid
breaking. Broken glass can cause an injury.
WARNING
When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode
simultaneously with a different burner which also makes
use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or coal-fired
heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water boilers) care
must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate supply
of fresh air which will be needed by the burner for
combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the under
pressure in the room where the burner is installed does
not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through
non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via
the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical
measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.
WARNING
Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate
air intake so combustion gases are not drawn back into
the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no
guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the
combined ventilation system for the entire household
must be taken into consideration. This rule does not
apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as
cooktops and ovens.
Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges.
Use caution when reaching behind or
under appliance.

STATEMENT OF LIMITED PRODUCT WARRANTY
What this Warranty Covers & Who it
Applies to
The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances
Corporation (“BSH“) in this Statement of Limited Product
Warranty applies only to the Bosch appliance (“Product“)
sold to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the
Product was purchased:
▯For your normal, household (non-commercial) use,
and has in fact at all times only been used for normal
household purposes.
▯New at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously
returned model), and not for resale, or commercial
use.
▯Within the United States or Canada, and has at all
times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply to the original
purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each
succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary
home use during the term of the warranty.
Please make sure to return your registration card; while
not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the
best way for BSH to notify you in the unlikely event of a
safety notice or product recall.
How Long the Warranty Lasts
BSH warrants that the Product is free from defects in
materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred
sixty-five (365) days from the date of purchase. The
foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of
purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or
suspended, for any reason whatsoever.
This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic
defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches
of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chip, dents,
or other damage to the finish of the Product), for a period
of thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or closing
date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty
excludes slight color variations due to inherent
differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as
differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location,
or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty
specifically excludes any display, floor, “As Is”, or “B”
stock appliances.
Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy
During this warranty period, BSH or one of its authorized
service providers will repair your Product without charge
to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your
Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect
in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to
repair the Product have been made without success,
then BSH will replace your Product (upgraded models
may be available to you, in BSH’s sole discretion, for an
additional charge). All removed parts and components
shall become the property of BSH at its sole option. All
replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity
of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this
warranty shall not be extended with respect to such
parts. BSH's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is
to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a
BSH-authorized service provider during normal business
hours. For safety and property damage concerns, BSH
highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the
Product yourself, or use an un-authorized servicer; BSH
will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work
performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to
have someone other than an authorized service provider
work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL
AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Authorized
service providers are those persons or companies that
have been specially trained on BSH products, and who
possess, in BSH's opinion, a superior reputation for
customer service and technical ability (note that they are
independent entities and are not agents, partners,
affiliates or representatives of BSH). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, BSH will not incur any liability, or have
responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote
area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service
provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous,
threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or
environment; in any such event, if you request, BSH
would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to
the nearest authorized service provider, but you would
still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or
other special charges by the service company, assuming
they agree to make the service call.

ATTENTION
Appareil conçu exclusivement pour la ventilation
générale. Ne pas utiliser pour évacuer des matières et
vapeurs dangereuses ou explosives.
Si des vêtements s’enflamment, rouler par terre
immédiatement pour éteindre les flammes.
Étouffez les flammes d'un feu d'aliments autre qu'un feu
de graisse à l'aide de bicarbonate de soude. Ne jamais
utiliser d'eau sur les feux de cuisson.
AVERTISSEMENT
POUR RÉDUIRE LE RISQUE DE LÉSIONS
CORPORELLES EN CAS D'UN FEU DE FRITURE SUR
UNE CUISINIÈRE, OBSERVER CE QUI SUIT :
▯ÉTOUFFER LES FLAMMES à l'aide d'un couvercle bien
hermétique, d'une tôle à biscuits ou d'un plateau en
métal, puis éteindre le brûleur. FAIRE ATTENTION À NE
PAS SE BRÛLER. Si les flammes ne s'éteignent pas
immédiatement, ÉVACUER LES LIEUX ET FAIRE
APPEL AU SERVICE D'INCENDIE.
▯NE JAMAIS SOULEVER UNE POÊLE EN FLAMMES –
Vous pourriez vous brûler.
▯NE PAS UTILISER D'EAU, y compris les chiffons ou
serviettes mouillées - une violente explosion de vapeur
pourrait se produire.
▯Utiliser UNIQUEMENT un extincteur si :
- Vous savez que vous avez un extincteur de classe
ABC et comment l'utiliser.
- Le feu est petit et circonscrit à la zone où il a débuté.
- Le service d'incendie est appelé.
- Si l'on peut combattre le feu en ayant le dos vers une
sortie.
Dans la mesure du possible, ne pas faire fonctionner le
système de ventilation lorsqu'un feu se déclenche sur
une table de cuisson. Toutefois, ne pas passer la main à
travers le feu pour mettre le système de ventilation hors
tension.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE D’INCENDIE
Les brûleurs gaz dégagent une forte chaleur
lorsqu'aucun récipient n'est posé dessus. Ils peuvent
alors endommager les appareils de ventilation. Utiliser
les brûleurs gaz uniquement lorsqu'un récipient est placé
dessus.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE D'INCENDIE
Lors du fonctionnement simultané de plusieurs foyers
gaz il y a une forte production de chaleur. Un appareil de
ventilation monté au-dessus peut être endommagé ou
prendre feu. Ne faites jamais fonctionner en même
temps deux foyers gaz à feu vif pendant plus de
15 minutes. Un brûleur grande puissance de plus de
17,000 Btu/hr (5 kW) (wok) chauffe autant que deux
brûleurs gaz.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE D'INCENDIE
L'huile et la graisse très chaudes s'enflamment
rapidement. Ne jamais laisser de l'huile et de la graisse
chaudes sans surveillance. Ne jamais éteindre un
incendie avec de l'eau. Éteindre le foyer. Étouffer les
flammes avec précaution au moyen d'un couvercle,
d'une couverture antifeu ou équivalent.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE D'INCENDIE

AVERTISSEMENT
S'assurer que l'appareil et les ampoules ont refroidi et
que le courant qui alimente l'appareil a été coupé avant
de changer une ou plusieurs ampoules. Le non respect
de cette instruction peut entraîner un choc électrique ou
des brûlures. Les lentilles (le cas échéant) doivent être
mises en place lors de l'utilisation de l'appareil. Les
lentilles (le cas échéant) permettent d'éviter que les
ampoules ne se brisent. Les lentilles (le cas échéant)
sont en verre. Manipuler avec précaution pour éviter les
cassures. Le verre brisé peut être une cause de
blessures.
AVERTISSEMENT
Lorsque la hotte aspirante est utilisée en mode
d'évacuation d'air simultanément avec un brûleur
différent utilisant également la même cheminée, (tels des
appareils de chauffage au gaz, à l'huile ou au charbon,
des chauffe-eau instantanés ou des chaudières à eau
chaude), veillez à ce que l'apport d'air frais soit suffisant
pour assurer la combustion adéquate du brûleur.
Un fonctionnement sans risque est possible si la sous-
pression dans la pièce où le brûleur est installé ne
dépasse pas 4 Pa (0,04 mbar).
On peut y parvenir en acheminant l'air requis pour la
combustion à travers des ouvertures non verrouillables,
par exemple dans les portes et fenêtres, et en
association avec des boîtiers muraux d'admission/
d'évacuation d'air fixées au mur ou grâce à d'autres
mesures techniques telles qu'un verrouillage réciproque,
etc.
AVERTISSEMENT
Évitez l'intoxication au monoxyde de carbone. – Prévoyez
une admission d'air adéquate pour empêcher l'aspiration
des gaz de combustion dans la pièce.
Un boîtier mural air d'admission/air d'échappement ne
peut garantir que la valeur limite ne sera pas dépassée.
Remarque : Lorsque vous évaluez les exigences
globales, vous devez tenir compte du système combiné
d'aération de la maison au complet. Cette règle ne
s'applique pas aux appareils de cuisson, comme les
surfaces de cuisson et les fours.
