ṇ Safety instructions
Intended use
This extractor hood complies with the
stipulated safety regulations. Improper use
may result in injury or damage.
The extractor hood may be used in the
household only. The manufacturer is not
liable for damage which is caused by
improper use or incorrect operation.
The manufacturer cannot be made
responsible for damage which can be
attributed to non-observance of the
safety instructions.
ṇ
RISK OF INJURY
Do not allow children to play with the
extractor hood! Adults and children must
never operate the appliance unsupervised
– if they are not physically or mentally
capable of doing so
– or if they do not have the knowledge and
experience to operate the appliance
correctly and safely.
Technical safety
The extractor hood left the factory in
perfect condition. Nevertheless check
the appliance for visible damage before
installation. If it is damaged, do not switch
it on!
If the power cord of the extractor hood
is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, his customer service or
a similarly qualiied person to prevent
hazardous situations.
Only a qualiied technician may install
(including electrical connection), service
or repair the extractor hood. Always isolate
the extractor hood by pulling out the mains
plug or switching of the fuse!
If the appliance is improperly installed,
serviced or repaired, the user may be placed
in considerable danger for which the
manufacturer is not liable.
Changes to the electrical or mechanical
installation are dangerous and must not be
undertaken! They may also cause the
extractor hood to malfunction.
Simultaneous operation of the extractor
hood with a heating appliance which is
dependent on ambient air
Heating appliances which are dependent
on ambient air, e.g. gas, oil, wood, or solid-
fuel heaters, instantaneous water heaters,
hot water boilers, hobs or ovens, and which
draw combustion air out of the installation
room and whose exhaust gases are
conveyed to the exterior by a lue.
ṇ RISK OF POISONING
If the extractor hood is operated at the same
time as a heating appliance which is
dependent on ambient air, there is a risk of
poisoning due to combustion gases being
drawn back in.
Safe operation is possible provided the
low pressure in the installation room of the
heating appliance does not exceed 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if the combustion air
can low through non-closable openings,
e.g. in doors, windows, in conjunction with
air intake/exhaust air wall boxes or by other
technical measures.
Adequate intake air must therefore always
be provided.
An intake/exhaust air wall box alone does
not ensure compliance with the limit value.
NOTE: When making your evaluation, always
consider the entire ventilation system in the
home. Include the advice of a competent
heating engineer when making your
evaluation.
Special information for gas cookers
When installing the extractor hood above
gas hobs, observe the appropriate national
statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany:
Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI).
Observe the currently valid installation
regulations and instructions of the gas
appliance manufacturer.
During installation, ensure that only one
side of the extractor hood is situated directly
next to a high-sided unit or a wall. Otherwise,
there is a risk of heat build-up. The gap
between the extractor hood and the wall or
high-sided unit must be at least 50 mm.
ṇ RISK OF BURNS
Do not operate more than 2 gas cooking
areas simultaneously over a period of
max. 15 minutes at maximum thermal load.
Due to the efect of the heat there is a risk
of burns if the surfaces of the housing are
touched!
Note that one large burner of more
than 5 kW (Wok) is equivalent to the power
of 2 gas burners.
The extractor hood may be damaged by
the intense heat.
Never operate a gas cooking area without
a cooking utensil on it. Regulate the lame in
such a way that it does not project over the
cooking utensil.
Proper use
Clean the extractor hood thoroughly
before using for the irst time.
Before cleaning and servicing the
extractor hood, isolate it from the power
supply by pulling out the mains plug or
switching of the fuse.
Bulbs (especially halogen bulbs) become
very hot during operation. Even some time
after the appliance has been switched of,
there is still a risk of burns!
Before changing bulbs, isolate the
extractor hood from the power supply
and leave the bulbs to cool down!
Do not operate the extractor hood
without bulbs inserted.
Always switch on the extractor hood if
a hotplate is being used. If the extractor hood
is not switched on, condensation may form.
As a result, the appliance may corrode.
ṇ
RISK OF FIRE
Do not lambé under the extractor hood or
work with a naked lame. When switched on,
the extractor hood draws lames into the
ilter. There is a risk of ire due to deposits on
the grease ilter!
Do not leave pans, frying pans or deep-
fat fryers unattended if you are cooking food
with oils or fats, e.g. chips. Overheated oils or
fats can easily ignite!
A risk of ire can be prevented by cleaning
the grease ilters regularly and changing the
activated-carbon ilter in good time.
Never operate the extractor hood
without grease ilters.
