Preface

With your new extractor hood, working in the
kitchen will be even more fun.

The appliance offers you a number of

advantages:

– a good extraction capacity with low noise

values,
– a large number of control functions,
– optimum illumination of the cooking surface by

a dimmable halogen light.
To ensure that you will be able to use this appli-

ance in all its diversity, read through the operating
and assembly instructions conscientiously before
operating it for the first time. The instructions
contain important notes on use, installation and
maintenance of the appliance.

On the following page you will find important
notes on safety and operation. These will serve
to ensure your personal safety and the lasting
value of your appliance.

You will find notes on page 4 that you ought to
observe before operating the appliance for
the first time.

The chapters entitled “Structure and operating
principle” and “Operation” will tell you all the
things your extractor hood is capable of doing
and how the appliance is operated.

Tips and hints in the chapter entitled “Cleaning
and care” will make sure that your appliance will
stay operable and beautiful for a long time.

And now we wish you lots of fun with your
new extractor hood.

1.1 For your safety

– Damaged appliances must not be operated.
– The appliance must only be connected by an

authorised specialist, paying attention to
the relevant regulations of the power supply
companies and the regional construction
regulations.

Also observe the assembly instructions!

– Connecting cables must not come into contact

with hot cooking surfaces.

– Do not operate the extractor hood without

inserted lamps.

– Never operate the appliance without a grease

filter.

– Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours

must not be extracted!

– The user is responsible for expert use and the

perfect condition of the appliance.

– Only ever operate the appliance under super-

vision.

– Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk!

Only ever deep-fry under the extractor under
constant supervision. Be sure to clean the
grease filter on a regular basis and change the
activated charcoal filter.

– Fire risk! Do not flambé meals under the

extractor hood!

– Operation of the extractor hood above a hearth

for solid fuels, which poses a fire risk (e.g. sparks)
is only permitted, if the hearth possesses a
closed and fixed lid. The current local
regulations must be obeyed. This does not apply
to gas hobs and gas cookers.

– Hobs may only be used under the extractor hood

when pots and pans are placed on them!

– When using more than 3 gas-operated rings at

the same time, please operate the extractor
hood at level 2 or higher. This prevents a build­up of heat in the appliance.

– For safety reasons, do not place any heavy

objects on the top of the appliance.

– Do not clean the appliance with a steam

cleaning apparatus or with water pressure
because this poses a risk of short-circuits.

– Isolate the appliance from the mains during

every maintenance operation. To do this, remove
the mains plug or actuate the corresponding
fuse.
If the mains plug is not accessible, the appliance
must be switched off at fuse point.

– Repairs must be carried out by authorised

specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety.

– No warranty claims can be lodged in the event

of damage caused by failure to observe these
instructions.

– Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a

wood, coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is
operated in the same room as the one in which
the hood is installed.

– Safe operation is possible whenever the partial

vacuum in the place where the firing equipment
is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
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
other technical means.

– If the appliance is to be operated only with the

window open (to ensure adequate incoming air),
you can use the window switch.
A switch (normally open) is fitted on the window.
On the appliance, this switch is connected to the
window switch terminal on the main electronics.
The appliance can now only be operated when
the window is open.
Important: the window switch must only be
connected by an authorised specialist.
Note: the light function works without restriction.

– After a power failure, the extactor will not go on

again automatically. You can recommence
operation by turning a knob or by pressing any
key.

Technical modifications reserved.

The Int key for the intensive level should be
pressed when browning and frying in an open pan
(see Fig. 6).
If you have switched on the hood by selecting the
intensive level, it will be switched off again
automatically after 5 minutes.

If you press the Int key while the hood is running at
fan level 1, 2 or 3, the electronic control will switch
back automatically to the previously selected fan
level after 5 minutes (see Fig. 7).

If you would like to end the intensive level before
the five minutes have elapsed, press the 0 key
(“Motor off”) or select a different level (see Fig. 8).

Special functions:

Intensive time:
You can set the intensive level running time to 3, 5
or 10 minutes by simultaneously pressing the Int
key and the 1, 2 or 3 key and you can store this
setting (see Fig. 9). When delivered, the appliance
is set to five minutes, i.e. the combination of the Int
key and the key 2.

Delayed shut-off:
Delayed shut-off is possible at any level. First press
the required key 1, 2, 3 or Int and then press the
key (see Fig. 10).
The delayed shut-off time for all levels is ten minu­tes. After these ten minutes, the ventilation switches
off, but the lighting stays on.

Interval ventilation:
Interval ventilation is a special feature of this
appliance which periodically activates the fan for
five minutes every hour. You can activate this
function by simultaneously pressing the 0 key and,
depending on the required extraction capacity, the
1, 2 or 3 key (see Fig. 11).
This mode of operation is indicated by alternating
illumination of the key together with the
corresponding fan level indicator.

You can switch off interval ventilation by pressing
the 0 key (see Fig. 12).

Cleaning the grease filters

The grease filter saturation display F flashes after
an operating time of 30 hours to you indicate to you
that you should clean the grease filter (see Fig. 3).
The grease filters can of course be cleaned at any
time, even if the grease filter saturation display has
not started to flash.

The stainless steel grease filters can be removed
easily for cleaning (see Fig. 13):

Disconnect the power supply (switch off the fuse).
Grip the grease filter handle and push the slide

towards the rear. Then pull the grease filter
downwards out of the holder; repeat the operation
for the other grease filters.

You can clean the stainless steel grease filters in a
dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65°C,
where it should be supported vertically

to allow

food or rinsing residues to drain off.
If possible, the inner parts of the housing should be

wiped out in hot rinsing water when replacing the
filters.

Caution:

when cleaning the inside of the housing, beware of
protruding parts.

After having cleaned them, re-insert the grease
filters in the wall extractor in reverse order.

Important:

the handles of both grease filters must be
visible after assembly.

Press the F key to set the elapsed hours counter to
zero. Flashing of the indicating lamp goes off.

Fig. 14

Cleaning the extractor hood

Clean the exterior of your extractor hood with a soft
cloth and mild detergent solution.

Do not use any strong, caustic or abrasive cleaning
agents. Do not use any abrasive sponges or
brushes either.

Clean the stainless-steel extractor hood
(AW 200/AW 202) with stainless steel cleaner.

Do not place any objects with sharp-edged or rough
bottoms (e.g. ceramic cups) on the hood.

Circulating air mode

The activated charcoal filter eliminates kitchen
smells in the circulating air mode. In normal use
(1 to 2 hours daily), the activated charcoal filter
must be replaced approximately once a year.

If no activated charcoal filter is installed, kitchen
smells will not be eliminated.

Replacing the activated charcoal filter:

remove the stainless steel grease filters. Push in the
clips on the side of the activated charcoal filter and
remove the activated charcoal filter downwardly.

Activated charcoal filters (KF 001-010) are available
through your specialist dealer. Only use original
filters.

Activated charcoal filters do not contain any
dangerous substances. They can be disposed of
through the household refuse collection.
