9IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode
simultaneously with a different burner which also
makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or
coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water
boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an
adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by
the burner for combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the under
pressure in the room where the burner is installed
does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow
through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors,
windows and via the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or
by other technical measures, such as reciprocal
interlocking, etc.
WARNING
Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate
air intake so combustion gases are not drawn back
into the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no
guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the
combined ventilation system for the entire household
must be taken into consideration. This rule does not
apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as
cooktops and ovens.

specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
General notes
Exhaust air mode
9WARNING
Risk of death
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in. The exhaust air must not be
conveyed into a functioning smoke or exhaust
gas flue or into a shaft that is used to ventilate
installation rooms that contain heating
appliances. If the exhaust air is to be conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas
flue, you must obtain the consent of the heating
engineer responsible.
If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a
telescopic wall box should be used.
Ventilation line
Note: The appliance manufacturer does not assume
any warranty for complaints attributable to the pipe
section.
▯The appliance 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 pipe diameters that are smaller
than 6” (150 mm), 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.
Round pipes
An inner diameter of 6” (150 mm), but at least 4 _”
(120 mm), is recommended.
Flat ducts
The inner cross-section must correspond to the
diameter of the round pipes.

dia. 4 _” (120 mm) approx. 26_ sq in (113 cm2)
▯Flat ducts should have no sharp deflections.
▯Use sealing strip for deviating pipe diameters.
Check wall
▯The walls must be smooth, vertical, and
sufficiently 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 (e.g. plasterboard,
porous concrete, poroton bricks).
▯The max. weight of the extractor hood is 90 lbs
(40 kg)
