Operating modes
This can be achieved if the combustion air
is able to flow through non-lockable
openings, e.g. in doors, windows and in
conjunction with an air supply/air-intake wall
box or by other technical procedures such
as reciprocal interlocking.
If the air intake is inadequate, there is a
risk of poisoning from combustion gases
which are 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 hobs and ovens.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the
extractor hood is used in recirculating mode
– with activated carbon filter.
Circulating-air mode:
❑ An activated carbon filter must be fitted
for this operating mode (see Filters and
maintenance).
ṇ
The complete installation set and
replacement filters can be obtained from
specialist outlets.
The corresponding accessory numbers
can be found at the end of these
operating instructions.
❑ 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.
ṇ
If no activated carbon filter is installed,
it is not possible to bind the odorous
substances in the cooking vapours.

Exhaust-air mode:
❑ The extractor-hood fan extracts the
kitchen 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.
D If the extractor hood is operated in
exhaust-air mode at the same time as a
flue-type heater (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel
heater, instantaneous water heater, boiler),
ensure that there is an adequate air
supply which the heater requires for
combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the
partial vacuum in the room in which the
heater is installed does not exceed 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar).
