WARNING!
Improper use, faulty electrical installation or excessive mains voltage may result in
an electric shock or short-circuiting.
Never try to repair a defective or suspected defective appliance yourself. You can
■
put your own and future users' lives in danger. Only authorised specialists are al-
lowed to carry out this repair work.
Do not continue to cook if you fi nd cracks in the glass ceramic. Water that runs
■
through cracks in the hob may become charged and cause an electric shock! In
such cases, immediately separate the hob from the electrical supply (switch off the
circuit breakers/unscrew fuses) and contact our Service department (see "Service
department" on page GB-28).
