TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
b) Sufficient air is needed for combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
c) When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
d) Ducted hoods must always be vented to the outdoors.
e) Do not use this hood with any solid-state speed control device.
f) Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).
g) Do not install this hood over cooktops that burn solid fuel.
h) Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood given in the "Appliance dimensions" section of this manual.
If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.
If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.
i) Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork.
j) Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
k) Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable materials.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

Functional description
The ventilation hood offers two modes of operation:
Air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. The flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Recirculation mode
Air is drawn through the grease filters and an active charcoal filter. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen.
The recirculation mode requires an install kit and charcoal filter which are optional accessories.
Before using the hood in recirculation mode, ensure that the active charcoal filter is in place, see "Cleaning and care".
