1 Safety
Please read the safety information to ensure
that you use the appliance safely.
1.1 General information
¡ Read this instruction manual carefully. Only
this will ensure you use the appliance
safely and efficiently.
¡ Keep the instruction manual and the
product information safe for future refer-
ence or for the next owner.
¡ Check the appliance after unpacking it. Do
not connect the appliance if it has been
damaged in transit.
1.2 Intended use
Read the information on intended use to en-
sure that you use the appliance correctly and
safely.
This appliance is designed only to be built
into kitchen units. Read the special installation
instructions.
The appliance can only be used safely if it is
correctly installed according to the safety in-
structions. The installer is responsible for en-
suring that the appliance works perfectly at its
installation location.
Only use this appliance:
¡ For extracting cooking vapour.
¡ In private households and in enclosed
spaces in a domestic environment.
¡ Up to an altitude of max. 2000m above
sea level.
Do not use the appliance:
¡ With an external timer.
1.3 Restriction on user group
Avoid risks to children and vulnerable per-
sons.
This appliance may be used by children aged
8 or over and by people who have reduced
physical, sensory or mental abilities or inad-
equate experience and/or knowledge,
provided that they are supervised or have
been instructed on how to use the appliance
safely and have understood the resulting
dangers.
Children must not play with the appliance.
Children must not perform cleaning or user
maintenance unless they are at least 15 years
old and are being supervised.
Keep children under the age of 8 years away
from the appliance and power cable.
1.4 Safe use
WARNING‒Risk of suffocation!
Children may put packaging material over
their heads or wrap themselves up in it and
suffocate.
▶
Keep packaging material away from chil-
dren.
▶
Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial.
WARNING‒Risk of poisoning!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being
drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-pro-
ducing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-
operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or
water heaters) obtain combustion air from the
room in which they are installed and dis-
charge the exhaust gases into the open
through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chim-
ney). With the extractor hood switched on, air
is extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent
rooms. Without an adequate supply of air, the
air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure.
Safety en
3
Toxic gases from the flue or the extraction
shaft are sucked back into the living space.
▶
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the
room if the appliance is being operated in
exhaust air mode at the same time as a
room-air-dependent heat-producing appli-
ance is being operated.
▶
It is only possible to safely operate the ap-
pliance if the pressure in the room in which
the heating appliance is installed does not
drop more than 4Pa(0.04mbar) below at-
mospheric pressure. This can be achieved
whenever the air needed for combustion is
able to enter through openings that cannot
be sealed, for example in doors, windows,
incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by
other technical means. An incoming/ex-
haust air wall box alone does not ensure
compliance with the limit.
▶
In any case, consult your responsible chim-
ney sweep. They are able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and will
suggest the suitable ventilation measures
to you.
▶
Unrestricted operation is possible if the ap-
pliance is operated exclusively in circulat-
ing-air mode.
WARNING‒Risk of fire!
Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch
fire.
▶
Never operate the appliance without a
grease filter.
▶
Clean the grease filters roughly every2
months.
▶
Never work with naked flames close to the
appliance (e.g. flambéing).
▶
Do not install the appliance near a solid
fuel heating appliance (e.g. wood- or coal-
burning) unless the heating appliance has
a sealed, non-removable cover. There must
be no flying sparks.
Hot oil or grease ignites very quickly.
▶
Always supervise hot oil and fat.
▶
Never extinguish burning oil or fat with wa-
ter. Switch off the cooking zone. Extinguish
flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or
something similar.
When gas burners are in operation without
any cookware placed on them, they can build
up a lot of heat. A ventilation appliance in-
stalled above the cooker may become dam-
aged or catch fire.
▶
Only operate the gas burners with cook-
ware on them.
Operating multiple gas hobs at the same time
generates a great deal of heat. A ventilation
appliance installed above the cooker may be-
come damaged or catch fire.
▶
Only operate the gas hobs with cookware
on them.
▶
Activate the ventilation system.
▶
Never operate two gas hobs simultan-
eously on the highest flame for longer than
15 minutes. Two gas hobs correspond to
one large burner.
▶
Never operate large burners of more than
5kW with the highest flame for longer
than 15minutes, e.g. a wok.
WARNING‒Risk of burns!
The accessible parts of the appliance become
hot during operation.
▶
Never touch these hot parts.
▶
Keep children at a safe distance.
The appliance will become hot during opera-
tion.
▶
Allow the appliance to cool down before
cleaning it.
WARNING‒Risk of injury!
Components inside the appliance may have
sharp edges.
▶
Carefully clean the appliance interior.
Items placed on the appliance may fall off.
▶
Do not place any objects on the appliance.
Changes to the electrical or mechanical as-
sembly are dangerous and may lead to mal-
functions.
▶
Do not make any changes to the electrical
or mechanical assembly.
The light emitted by LED lights is very
dazzling, and can damage the eyes (risk
group 1).
▶
Do not look directly into the switched-on
LED lights for longer than 100seconds.

acidic cleaning agents. In particular, do not
use commercial or industrial cleaning
agents in conjunction with aluminium parts,
e.g. grease filter on extractor hoods.
2 Avoiding material damage
ATTENTION!
Condensate may cause corrosion damage.
▶
To prevent condensation from building up, switch on
the appliance during cooking.
If moisture gets into the controls, this may result in
damage.
▶
Never clean controls with a wet cloth.
Incorrect cleaning damages the surfaces.
▶
Follow the cleaning instructions.
▶
Do not use harsh or abrasive detergents.
▶
Clean stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the
finish only.
▶
Never clean controls with stainless steel cleaners.
If you put incorrect stress on the design elements, they
may break off.
▶
Do not pull design elements.
▶
Do not place objects on the design elements or
hang objects from them.
There is a risk of surface damage if you do not peel off
the protective film.
▶
Remove the protective film from all parts of the ap-
pliance before using for the first time.
3 Environmental protection and saving energy
Help protect the environment by using your appliance
in a way that conserves resources and by disposing of
reusable materials properly.
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compat-
ible and can be recycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
Information about current disposal methods are
available from your specialist dealer or local author-
ity.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use
less power.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when cook-
ing.
¡
The appliance works more efficiently and with fewer
operating noises.
Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
¡
The lighting does not consume any energy.
Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals.
¡
The effectiveness of the appliance is increased.
Put the cooking lid on.
¡
The cooking vapours and condensation are re-
duced.
Operating modes en
5
4 Operating modes
4.1 Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease fil-
ters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.
The air must not be discharged into a
flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other
fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the
room).
¡ If the exhaust air is to be conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or ex-
haust gas flue, you must obtain the
consent of the heating engineer re-
sponsible.
¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed
through the external wall, a tele-
scopic duct should be used.
