Description of appliance Before using for the first time
Operating modes
Exhaust-air mode:
❑ The extractor-hood fan extracts the kit-
chen vapours and conveys them through
the grease filter into the atmosphere.
❑ The grease filter absorbs the solid
particles in the kitchen vapours.
❑ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease
and odours.
Before reading these instructions, please fold out the illustrated back pages
Note: When assessing the air pressure, the
entire ventilation system in the house/apartment must be taken into account. If using
cooking appliances, e.g. hob and/or gas
cooker, this rule does not apply.
Government regulations must be observed
for the conveyance of exhaust air.
If the extractor hood is used in circulating-air
mode – with activated carbon filter –, there
are no operating restrictions.
Circulating-air mode:
❑ An activated carbon filter must be fitted
for this operating mode (see Filters and
maintenance). The activated carbon filter
can be purchased as an optional
accessory FROM YOUR DEALER.
❑ The extractor-hood fan extracts the
kitchen vapours which are purified in the
grease filter and activated carbon filter
and then conveyed back into the
kitchen.
❑ The grease filter absorbs the grease
particles in the kitchen vapours.
❑ The activated carbon filter binds the
odorous substances.
If the extractor hood is switched from
exhaust-air mode to circulating-air mode,
the exhaust-air opening must be sealed to
prevent a hazardous situation (see optional
accessories in the Instructions for use).
Important information:
This extractor hood complies with the
relevant safety regulations.
Repairs may be carried out only by
qualified technicians.
To prevent a hazardous situation, a
damaged connection cable must be
replaced by the manufacturer or his
customer service or a similarly qualified person.
Improper repairs may put the user at
considerable risk.
D
If the extractor hood is in exhaust-air
mode and a flue-type heater is running
at the same time (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel
heaters, continuous-flow heaters, water
heaters), ensure that the fireplace has an
adequate air supply for combustion.
Safe operation requires that the low air
pressure in the room in which the fireplace
is located does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04
mbar).
This low air pressure can be obtained,
provided combustion air can escape
through non-lockable openings, e.g. in
doors,
windows, air-intake/exhaust-air wall boxes
or by other technical procedures, such as
reciprocal interlocking, etc.

Operating Instructions
The appliance is not intended for use
by young children or infirmed persons
without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to
ensure they do not play with the appliance.
The appliance may only be connected
and operated by a qualified technician.
Dispose of packaging materials in an
environmentally friendly manner.
Operate the extractor hood only with
screwed on lamps.
Never operate the extractor hood
without a grease filter.
Overheated fat or oil can easily ignite.
Food which is being prepared in fat or oil,
e.g. chips, must never be left unattended.
Do not flambé under the extractor
hood.
Risk of grease filter catching fire
! catching fire from rising flames.
Certain restrictions apply if the extrac-
tor hood is to be installed over a fireplace
which burns solid fuel (coal, wood, etc.)
(see Installation instructions).
Always use gas hotplates correctly.
Important:
The flames of the gas hotplates must
always be covered with a cooking utensil.
The intensive heat development of the
naked gas flames could damage the
! extractor hood.
The kitchen vapours are best elimina-
ted by:
❑
Switching on the extractor hood
at the start of cooking.
❑
Switching off the extractor hood
several minutes after cooking has
ended.

Different grease filters can be used to
absorb the grease particles in the
kitchen vapours.
Fleece grease filter:
The filter mat consists of highly flammable
material.
Warning:
A build up of greasy residue increases
flammability, and the function of the
extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
Replace the fleece grease filter in good time,
otherwise there is a risk of fire from the heat
which accumulates during deep-fat frying or
roasting.
Replacing the fleece grease filter:
❑ During normal operation (daily 1 to 2
hours) the fleece grease filter must be
replaced every 8 to 10 weeks.
Replace printed fleece grease filters at
the latest when the coloured print
dissolves.
❑ Use only original filters.
These comply with the safety regulations
and ensure optimum function.
Disposal of the old fleece grease filter:
❑ Fleece grease filters do not contain any
harmful substances. They can be
disposed of as bio-degradable waste.
Removing and installing the fleece
grease filter:
1. Press in the interlocks on the left and
right sides of the filter grille. Fig. 1/1.
2. Remove the filter grille. Fig. 1/2.
3. Remove the wire grille and the saturated
filter mat. Fig. 2.
4. Clean the filter grille and insert a new
filter mat Fig. 2.
5. Clamp the filter mat with the wire grille.
Fig. 2.
6. Re-insert the filter grille. Fig. 1/2.
The interlocks must lock into position
on the left and right sides. Fig. 1/1.
Metal grease filter:
The filter mats consist of non-flammable
material.
Warning:
A build up of greasy residue increases
flammability, and the function of the
extractor hood may be impaired.
Important:
Replace the metal grease filter in good time,
otherwise there is a risk of fire from the heat
which accumulates during deep-fat frying or
roasting.
Cleaning the metal grease filter:
❑ During normal operation (daily 1 to 2
hours) the metal grease filter must be
replaced every 8 to 10 weeks.
❑ The metal grease filter can be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Slight discoloration may occur.
Important:
Do not clean heavily saturated metal
grease filters with other dishes.
❑ If cleaning by hand, soak the grease
filters in a hot soapy solution.
Then brush off any residual grease, rinse
thoroughly and leave to dry.
❑ Use only original filters.
These ensure optimum function.
