mostly manufactured from the following
re-usable materials:
. . . Corrugated paper / cardboard mostly from recycled materials.
. . . CFC-free molded polystyrene.
. . . Polyethylene foil (PE) -
partly from secondary raw materials.
Rather than just throwing these ma-
terials away, please take them to the
nearest local authority collection point
for specific waste.
Disposal of your old machine
Old machines contain materials which
can be recycled. Please contact your
local authorities or scrap merchant
about potential recycling schemes, before disposing of the appliance.

Warning and Safety instructions
Warning and Safety instructions
Read these Operating Instructions carefully before installing or
using the Exhaust Hood.
This appliance is intended for
residential use only. Use the appliance only for its’ intended purpose. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for damages
caused by improper use of the
hood.
Read all the instructions before installing or using for the first time.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY
This appliance is to be used for
ventilating cooking smoke / odors
only. Do not use it to vent hazardous or
flammable furnes or materials.
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded
by a qualified technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety
of this appliance, continuity must
exist between the appliance and an
effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement
be met. If there is any doubt, have the
electrical system of the house checked
by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy of, an effective grounding system.
Do not allow children to play with
the hood or its controls.
Repairs on electrical appliances
should only be performed by qualified personnel. Do not repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this manual.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by either removing
the fuse or manually “tripping” the circuit breaker.
Do not turn on the hood until it has
been proberly installed.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
meet the safety requirements of this appliance.
Do not cook on an open flame be-
neath the exhaust hood. Flames
could be drawn up into the hood by the
suction or the grease filters may ignite.
Do not leave the cooktop unat-
tended while in use. Overheated
food can ignite.
When installing the hood, make
sure that the minimum safety
distances between the cooktop and
hood are maintained.
– For electric cooktops: 18" (45 cm)
– For gas cooktops: 26" (65 cm)
Only metal ductwork should be
connected to the exhaust hood.
Any fittings, sealant, or materials used
to install the ductwork must be made of
non-flammable materials.

Warning and Safety instructions
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent
flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connecting
an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Do not place this exhaust hood
over cooktops burning solid fuel.
Never operate gas burners without
pots. Heat generated by prolonged operation of gas burners without pots could damage the hood.
Do not use the exhaust hood with-
out the grease filters in place.
Clean the grease filters regularly.
Saturated filters are a fire hazard.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the hood. The steam could
penetrate to electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
To reduce the risk of cooking fires:
– Keep the fan, filters and cooking
area clean and free of grease.
– Turn on the hood when cooking at
high temperatures.
– Heat oils slowly. Only use the high
settings of the range or cooktop
when necessary.
– Never leave a turned on range or
cooktop unattended.
– Always use cookware and utensils
that are appropriate for the type and
amount of food being prepared.
When connecting the hood to an external vent, make sure that there is
adequate ventilation in the room
where the exhaust hood is to be
used.
When using the hood in the same area
as other appliances requiring room air
(e.g. non-electric water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.) make certain that the air extracted by the hood
does not hinder their operation. These
appliances need air for combustion.
Adequate ventilation can be maintained by installing air vents in windows
or walls or by ensuring that the hood
can only be turned on when the other
appliances are off, or vice versa.
To prevent combustion gases being
drawn back into the room by the exhaust hood, the underpressure in the
room must be no greater than 6 psi
(0,04 mbar) when the hood and these
appliances are running simultaneously.
If there are any doubts as to whether
there is adequate ventilation, consult
an experienced professional.
The above ventilation restrictions
and warnings do not apply if the exhaust hood is retrofitted with an air
recirculation kit.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother any fire or flame, or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
