WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Hot oil and fat catch re fast. Never leave hot oil and fat
unsupervised.
Never extinguish a re with water. Switch off the cooking
position.
Suffocate ames carefully with a lid, a re blanket or similar.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease lter can ignite.
Clean the grease lter at least every two months or as
frequently as necessary.
Never operate the appliance without the grease lter.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease lter can catch re. Never
work with a naked ame near the appliance (e.g. am-
béing). 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 ying sparks.
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Use only metal ductwork.
WARNING
RISK OF BURNS
The accessible parts get hot during operation.
Never touch hot parts.
Keep children away.
CAUTION
It is recommended to wear gloves and long sleeves to
protect hands and forearms from abrasion and potential
scratches during the installation process.
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 qualied
persons.
Do not allow anyone to climb, stand, lean, sit, or hang on
any part of an appliance. This can damage the appliance or
cause injury.
Be sure the entire appliance (including the grease lters
and light bulbs, if applicable) has cooled and grease
has solidied before attempting to clean any part of the
appliance.

General Notes
Fan operation
Note: Ventilation may not exit through an already
operational smoke or exhaust chimney, nor a duct used
for ventilating furnace installation areas.
• If the ventilation is intended to pass through smoke
or exhaust that is not in operation, the responsible area
heating inspector must give approval.
• If the ventilation passes through an external wall, use a
telescope wall sleeve.
Electrical Connection
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Parts inside the appliance can have sharp edges.
The connection cable can be damaged. Do not
bend or pinch connection cables during installation.
Before connecting the appliance, check the household
installation. Ensure sufcient fuse protection of the household installation. Turn off power circuit at service panel and
lock out panel before wiring this appliance. Requirement:
120 VAC, 60 Hz 15 A (see rating plate).
The appliance complies with protection class 1 and must
only be operated in conjunction with a protective conductor terminal.
An all-pole isolating switch with at least a 3 mm contact
gap must be tted in the installation. This must remain
accessible after installation.
Only a qualied electrician who takes the appropriate
regulations into account may lay or replace the
connecting cable.
Ventilation line
Note: The manufacturer is not responsible for the operation
or complaints associate with the pipe section.
• The device achieves its optimum performance by
means of a short, straight exhaust air pipe and as large
a pipe diameter as possible.
• The optimum extraction performance is not achieved
and fan noise is increased if exhaust air pipes are long
and rough and if there is a large number of pipe bends
or diameters less than 8” (200 mm).
• The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must
consist of non-combustible material.
Round pipes
An inner diameter of 8” (200 mm) is necessary.
Follow all standards, regulations, and laws.
Ensure that the electrical connection meets the requirements of the latest version of all applicable standards.
regulations, and laws in the appropriate country, especially
the following standards: National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70*, or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No.0-M91**.
Have a qualied electrical technician check the grounding
of the appliance.
Do not ground with a gas line.
No fuse protection in the neutral or grounding circuit.
Keep these installation instructions. Only connect the
appliance with a copper conductor. If possible, connect
the appliance to a metal cable guide directly to the fuse
box.
Ensure that the wire diameter meets the requirements of
the latest version of all applicable standards, regulations,
and laws in the appropriate country, especially the following
standards: National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70*, or
CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical Code, Part
1 and C22.2 No.0-M91**.

Safety clearances
WARNING
RISK OF FIRE
Grease deposits in the grease lter can catch re.
The given safety clearance must be observed to avoid
heat buildup. Observe the specications for your cooking
appliance. If gas and electric cooktops are used together,
the largest given clearance applies.
The appliance may only be installed directly next to a
cabinet or wall on one side. The wall or cabinet clearance
must be at least 2” (50 mm).
The clearance between the shelf on the cooktop and the
bottom of the extractor hood may not be less than 24”
(610 mm) in the case of electric cooktops and 27”
(686 mm) in case of gas or combined ranges.
If the installation instructions for the gas cooking appliance
specify a larger distance, this must be taken into account.

Fan operation
Note: Ventilation may not exit through an already
operational smoke or exhaust chimney, nor a duct used
for ventilating furnace installation areas.
• If the ventilation is intended to pass through smoke
or exhaust chimney that is not in operation, the
responsible area heating inspector must give approval.
• If the ventilation passes through an external wall, use a
telescope wall sleeve.
Ventilation line
Note: The device manufacturer is not responsible for the
operation or complaints associated with the pipe section.
• The ventilation opening and the exhaust air ducts must
be made according to the local requirements.
• The device achieves its optimum performance by
means of a short, straight exhaust air pipe and as
large a pipe diameter as possible.
• As a result of long rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe
bends or too-small diameters, the optimum extraction
performance is not achieved and fan noise is increased.
• The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must
consist of non-combustible material.
• Smooth the connection area of the pipes before
installation.
• Seal the connection points of the pipes appropriately.
Round pipes
An inner diameter of Ø 8” (200 mm) is recommended.
Checking the wall
• The wall must be level, vertical and adequately load
bearing.
• The depth of the bore holes must be the same length
as the screws. The wall plugs must have a secure grip.
• The enclosed screws and wall plugs are suitable for
solid brickwork. Suitable fasteners must be used for
other structures.

The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has
a strong effect on the air ow, noise and energy use of the
fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for
best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller
ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can
reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed
with existing ducts may not achieve their rated airow.
Ensure duct joints and exterior penetrations are sealed
with caulk or other similar material to create an air-tight
path and to minimize building heat loss and gain, and
reduce the potential for condensation.
Place/wrap insulation around duct and/or fan in order to
minimize possible condensation buildup within the duct,
building heat loss and gain.
CAUTION
Ensure that there are no electric wires, gas or water pipes
in the area where holes are to be made.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Before wiring the appliance, interrupt the main electrical
circuit at the electrical control cabinet. A circuit with 120
VAC, 15 or 20 Ampere is required.
Grounding notes: this appliance is equipped with a
distributor box with 3 cables. Use the green-yellow cable
for grounding the appliance. Connect the green-yellow
cable to the grounding cable on the house connection to
prevent electric shock. Do not under any circumstances
damage or remove the green-yellow cable. Non-adherence can cause deadly injuries or electric shock.
1. Remove the left cable passage and the cover of the
motor controller. Fasten the connecting piece for the
installation pipe (listed in cULus) to the cable
passage.
