Operation

C] The hood fan extracts the kitchen

vapours and conveys them through the
grease filter into the atmosphere.

C] The grease filter absorbs the solid

particles in the kitchen vapors,

C] The kitchen is kept almost free of grease

and odors,

_._ If the hood is in exhaust-air mode
and a flue-type heater is running at the

same time (e,g. gas, oil or solid-fuel

heaters, continuous-flow heaters, water
heaters), ensure that the fireplace has an

adequate air supply for combustion.
Safe operation requires that the low air

pressure in the room in which the fireplace
is located does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04
mbar),

This low air pressure can be obtained,

provided combustion air can escape
through non-lockable openings, e,g, in
doors, windows, air-intake/exhaust-air wall

boxes or by other technical procedures,
such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is

no guarantee that the limiting value will not

be exceeded.

Note: When assessing the air pressure, the
entire ventilation system in the house/

apartment must be taken into account, If

using cooking appliances, e.g, hob and/or
gas cooker, this rule does not apply.

Government regulations must be observed
for the conveyance of exhaust ain

Before using for the first time

Important notes:
This hood complies with all

relevant safety regulations.
Repairs should only be carried out by

qualified technicians.
Improperly executed repairs can give

rise to significant hazards for the user.
Z_ The appliance is not intended for use

by young children without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to
ensure they do not play with the appliance.

Z_ Electrical connections should be made
by a qualified technician.

Z_ Dispose of packaging materials
properly (see Installation instructions).

Z_ Light bulbs must always be fitted when
the hood is in use.

Z_ Never operate the hood without a
grease filter.

Z_ Overheated fat or oil can easily catch
fire.

If you are cooking with fat or oil, e.g. chips,
etc., never leave food unattended.

Z_ Do not flambe food directly under the
hood.

A

Lt_ DO NOT USE WATER, including wet
dishclothes or towels - a violent steam

explosion may result.
Z_ Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

t. You know you have a class ABC extin-

guisher, and you already know how to
operate it.

2. The fire is small and contained in the
area where it started.

3. The fire department is being called.

4. You can fight the fire with your back to
an exit,

Operating procedure

A

LL_ The most effective method of removing
vapours produced during cooking is to:

CI Switch the ventilator ON

approximately 5 minutes before you
begin cooking.

CI Switch the ventilator OFF

a few minutes after you have finished
cooking.

Risk of grease filter catching fire due

to flames.

WARNING -TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
INJURY TO PERSONS, IN THE EVENT

OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

Z_ SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting
lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then

turn off the gas burner or the electric ele-
ment. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS.

If the flames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPART-

MENT
Z_ NEVER PICH UP A FLAMING PAN -

you may be burned.

Light Off/On Ventilator settings

Switching ON:
CI Slide the right slide switch to the desired

fan setting.

Switching OFF:
CI Slide the right slide switch back to 0.

Lighting:
CI The light can be switched on at any

time, even though the fan is switched off.

Filters and maintenance

Grease filters:
Metal filters are used to trap the grease

particles of the vapours that develop
during cooking.

The filter mats are made from non-

combustible metal.
Caution:

As the filter becomes more and more
saturated with grease, not only does the

risk of it catching fire increase but the
efficiency of the hood can also be adversely

affected.

Important:
By cleaning the metal grease filters at

appropriate intervals, the possibility of them

catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat

such as occurs when deep-fat frying or

roasting is taking place, is reduced.

Cleaning the metal grease filters:
[3 In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily),

the metal grease filter must be cleaned
after 8 to 10 weeks.

C] The filters can be cleaned in a

dishwasher. It is however possible that
they will become slightly discolored.

Important:
Metal filters that are saturated with

grease should not be washed together
with other dishes etc.

C] When cleaning the filters by hand, soak

them in hot soapy water first of all.

Then brush the filters clean, rinse them

thoroughly and leave the water to drain off.

Removing and inserting the metal grease

filters:

t. Press the catch on the grease filters

inwards and fold the filters down. Fig. 1.

2. Clean the filters.

3. Insert the clean filters back into the
hood.
