EXHAUST-AIR MODE:
❑ The hood fan extracts the kitchen vapors and conveys
them through the grease filter into the atmosphere.
❑ The grease filter absorbs the solid
particles in the kitchen vapors.
❑ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease and odors.
D
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 ade-
quate 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.
CAUTION
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.

TRANSPORTATION PROTECTION
DEVICE:
❑ The transportation protection device prevents the
canopy from moving.
❑ Check that the installer has removed the transportation
protection device (see installation manual).
❑ Please retain the transportation protection device for
possible future need.
Gas Cooktops / Gas Ranges:
CAUTION
Avoid risk of burns or damage to the hood.
Do not use all gas burners simultaneously at high settings
for a prolonged period (max.15 minutes).
If the hood is located over a gas cooktop, operate the
hood at maximum setting whenever three or more gas
burners are being used.
