Prior to disposal the appliance must be rendered unserviceable by cutting off the power supply cable. The appliance is to be sent for disposal to the responsible collection authorities.
**4. Tips and general advice

** a) Prior to carrying out cleaning or maintenance work the power supply to the extractor hood is to be cut off by removing the supply plug.
b) The air extracted from the hood is not to be routed over the exhaust air pipeline of the heater or other non-electric operated appliances.
c) No flambé dishes are to be prepared under the extractor hood. The open flames could destroy the hood or even cause a kitchen fire.
d) Never leave pans unwatched when frying because fat can easily catch fire.
e) Constant maintenance Guaranty’s problem-free operation and optimal hood performance.
f) If the hood is used together with other nonelectrically operated appliances, the room partial vacuum must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar).
g) Make sure that the room is adequately ventilated.
h) Regularly clean encrusted food from appliance surfaces.
i) Regularly clean or replace the filter.
The exhaust air hose must not be made from or contain flammable materials.

Before using the hood

• Ensure that the hood has not suffered damage during transport.
  Installation and connection of the electrical supply and the exhaust air must be carried out by experienced tradesmen according to the manufacturer’s instructions and in compliance with the local requirements.

Using the hood

6.1 Operating safety information
The grease filter must always be in place when operating the hood, otherwise grease vapour can become deposited in the hood and the exhaust air system.

• With gas hobs, take care that hobs are not operated without cooking utensils. Parts of the hood can be damaged by the rising heat from open gas flames.
• Flame cooking under the hood is not permitted due to the fire risk. The rising flame can set fire to grease deposited in the filter.
• Due to the fire risk, frying or cooking with oils and fats under the hood is only to take place under constant surveillance. Attention! The risk of self-ignition increases with oils which have been used repeatedly used.
• Other activities with an open flame are not permitted. These could damage the filter or other parts of the appliance or even start a fire.

6.2 In exhaust air mode: The extracted air is emitted outdoors via the exhaust hose.
For this purpose your house must have an exhaust air shaft or an exhaust air pipeline leading outdoors.
When using the hood in exhaust air mode and operating with chimney-dependent firing methods, (e.g. coal oven) care must be taken for an adequate supply of fresh air in the installation location. Always discuss this with your responsible chimney-sweeping specialist.
If no permanently installed exhaust air pipeline or exhaust air shaft is available, you must operate the hood in circulation air mode. (see chapter 11.3)
6.3 In circulation air mode:
The inlet air is filtered through a carbon filter (also known as active carbon filter) and circulated in the room. The carbon filter captures the odours produced through cooking. The filtered air is circulated back into the kitchen through air openings at the side or on the top. If the hood is used in circulation air mode, it is absolutely safe to simultaneously operate a roomier-dependent fire.

**** Switch on the appliance a few minutes prior to commencing cooking. It is recommended with both exhaust and circulation air modes to run the fan a further ca. 5 to 10 minutes after cooking. This will free the kitchen air of any remaining steam and odours.

1. For improved hood performance, pull out the steam collector (where fitted).
2. Set the fan speed according to the amount of smoke and odours to be extracted.
3. Operate the hood for another ca. 5 to 10 minutes after finishing cooking.
4. Refit the steam collector (where fitted).

After-run function
If your appliance is fitted with an after-run function, this can be activated by an additional key on the control panel (chapter 14).

Cleaning and care

Prior to any maintenance or cleaning work isolate the hood from the electrical supply by: pulling out the appliance connector plug or tripping the house installation circuit breaker or fully unscrew the screw type fuse from the house installation

• The extractor hood is not to be cleaned with a steam cleaner
• Do not use cleaning agents containing alcohol to clean appliances with a matt black finish. These can lead to discolouring.
• Non-compliance with the maintenance and cleaning instructions can result in a fire hazard due to grease deposits.
• The grease filters on your appliance are to be cleaned or replaced at regular intervals. Filters saturated with grease can quickly catch fire and also distribute unpleasant odours.
• Grease filters obstructed by dirt particles seriously impair the appliance function.
• When cleaning the area of the control elements, take great care to prevent water entering the electronics.

Special information for appliances wit a stainless steel casing
A commercially available non-abrasive stainless steel cleaning agent should be used for cleaning stainless steel surfaces. Treatment with a stainless steel preservative is recommended to prevent surfaces becoming quire-soiled. Apply the agent all over and economic using a soft cloth.

Never use stainless steel cleaning a gen the vicinity of the control elements.
When cleaning metal grease filters take not to damage the mesh. Frequent cleaning or use of aggressive cleaning agents can cause changes to the metal surface. These do not  the filter function and are not grounds for complaint.

7.1 Changing the grease filter
Grease filters must occasionally be changed. The following rules apply:

• Change paper grease filters monthly
• Change paper grease filters with alarm every two months or when the colour of the surface becomes visible through the mesh openings. This filter is coloured on one side; after fitting, this colouring must not be visible through the mesh openings.
• Foam grease filters must be soaked once a month in warm soapy water for 1 to 2 hours. Do not wring out; repeat where required and replace the filter by a new item after a maximum of 5-6 washes.
• Metal grease filters do not have to be replaced when they are over-saturated but washed once a month by hand or in a dishwasher (60°) (please do not use a corrosive rinsing agent). Allow the filter to dry thoroughly and carefully replace it in the extractor hood.

Avoid using alkaline dishwasher cleaning agents (ph value over 7).

• Carbon filters
  a) Traditional carbon filters (normally round in shape) can be neither washer nor regenerated. The charcoal filters have to be replaced regularly, at least every 3 months or earlier, depending on the cooking habits
  b) Washable and regeneratable carbon filters (normally square in shape) are to be washed once a month in a dishwasher, using a standard rinsing agent and with the intensive rinsing program (at the highest temperature). Washable and regeneratable carbon filters absorb kitchen odours for a maximum of 3 years when cleaned monthly. The filter should then be replaced by a new item.

Washable and regeneratable carbon filters should be washed separately to avoid food residue deposits which can later cause unpleasant odours. After washing, the washable and regeneratable carbon filter must be reactivated. This is carried out by drying the cleaned filter in an oven for 10 minutes at 100°C.
Read the package to see whether your carbon filter is washable and regeneratable.
If the package carries no information, then it contains a traditional, non- washable carbon filter.
Each time you change or wash a grease filter or carbon filter, after removal clean all exposed lower parts of the hood with a mild grease solvent. For the daily cleaning of the outer pats of the hood  use a soft cloth moistened with alcohol or a mild liquid cleaner. Never use an abrasive cleaner.

There is a risk of fire if the instructions for cleaning the hood and the changing or cleaning of the filters are not complied with.

Changing the lamps
When changing a lamp, make sure that the new lamp does not have a higher wattage than that of the original.
8.1 Changing LED lamp
If the documentation of the cooker hood does nonincluded an instruction for replacing LED lamps, the lamp must pe replaced by the customer service safety reasons.

Fault – what to do if …
The motor fails to function:

• Is the plug properly inserted in the socket?
• Is there a power supply failure?
• Has a fuse blown?

The hood capacity is insufficient / operating noise has increased:

• Is the size of the exhaust air pipeline sufficient?
• Is the exhaust air duct blocked?
• The cross section of the air pipeline (from the hood to the wall box incl.) should be 120 mm.
• A smaller air pipeline cross-section can possibly impair the motor power.
• The air flow can be obstructed if the wall box is fitted with a fly mesh. If this is the case remove the fly mesh.
• If the cover plate of the wall box has fixed, very inclined louvres, you should remove the plate to check whether this solves the problem.
• Mount a cover plate with movable louvres in the wall box, as this will least obstruct the air flow.
• Is / are the filter(s) clean?
• Was / were the carbon filter(s) installed more than six months ago? Then this/these should be changed.
• Is the air taken from the kitchen being replaced by sufficient fresh air, so that no partial vacuum is being produced in the room?

The lighting fails to function:

• Does the lamp need changing?
• Has the lamp been properly fitted and seated in the holder up to the stop?
• Is the fuse blown or has the circuit breaker tripped out?

If all the above checks fail to remedy the fault, it is possible you have a more serious problem. In no circumstances try to repair the electronic/electrical components in the appliance. Contact your Customer Service.

Customer Service

Before calling the customer service please note Model/Type of your appliance. The type and rating plate is located inside the appliance (remove the grease filter)
Installation
Before installation of the appliance please pay regard to:

• Installation of the appliance only at a convenient place.
• Check the wall / ceiling on sustainability and resilience.
• Check the routing of electrical and other conductions in and on the wall respectively ceiling, in order to not damage them with the drill.
• Check the condition and resilience of electric conduction.
• We recommend the installation of the appliance by a professional.

On installation, the minimum distance between the hob and the hood must be exactly complied with (see chapter 11.1 “Installation data“) and follow the numbering of the steps and the additional instructions. Execution with air exhausted outdoors (A- see also the installation data). The vapours are extracted via an air exhaust hose fixed to the connector ring.
The diameter of the exhaust air hose must conform to that of the connector ring. If a smoke non-return valve is used or is planned, check whether it can open and close freely after the installation of the exhaust air hose. The extractor hood can be equipped with one (top) or two (top and back extractor openings. The hood is normally initially fitted out for use of the top extractor opening, as an extractor hood. Openings not required are fitted with a plastic cover. This plastic cover can be easily removed by turning counterclockwise and optionally fitted to another opening which is not required.

11.1 Installation data
Minimum distance from the lower edge of the hood body:

• to ceramic and cast cooking hobs 65 cm
• to gas hob70 cm
• to hobs with coal/oil/wood firing 85 cm.

Only connect the appliance to the power supply once it is properly installed.
11.2 Using the extractor hood as an exhaust air hood (with air extracted to outdoors)
If the extractor hood has been fitted at the factory with a carbon filter, this must be removed. It is only practicable to use this when operating your hood in circulation mode.
11.3 Converting the extractor hood to a circulation hood
If you wish to use an appropriately fitted hood as a circulation hood, you must mount the active carbon filter(s) to the fan motor before using the hood. The active carbon filter(s) is/are included in the scope of supply with some models. Otherwise you must obtain the active carbon filter(s) from the supplier of your extractor hood. You must also change your hood over to the “Filter position“ at the device provided (lever or ball handle) inside of the hood.

11.4. Electrical connection
Before connecting the extractor hood, check that the voltage stated on the rating plate (V) agrees with the supply voltage in your home.
Never install the appliance if the data on the rating plate does not agree with your supply voltage. You will find the rating plate inside the appliance, behind the grease filter.
If the extractor hood is fitted with a standard connector plug, connect this to an easily accessible standard socket.
11.5 Mounting the carbon filter
You will find the mounting instructions for the carbon filter in its packaging. To mount the carbon filter remove the grease filter(s), fit the carbon according to its mounting instructions and refit the grease filter(s).
11.6 Mounting the extractor hood
See chapter “Installation instructions” or where applicable the separately supplied mounting instructions.

Exhaust air pipeline

(The exhaust air hose is not included in the scope of supply)
Fig. A air outlet to outdoors
Fig. B air outlet via an air shaft

• The exhaust air line should be as short and straight as possible.
• To avoid excessive noise or a reduced extraction capacity the diameter of the exhaust air pipeline should not be less than 120 mm.
• Use or form only large radius bends. Small radius bends reduce the extraction capacity of the hood.
• Use only smooth pipelines or flexible hoses of non-flammable materials for the exhaust air pipeline
• If the exhaust air pipeline is horizontally routed, there must be a minimum gradient of 1 cm per metre or an inclination angle of 2°. (Fig. C)

Otherwise condensation water could run into the extractor hood motor.

•  If the exhaust air is directed into an exhaust air duct, the end of the entry fitting must be directed in the direction of flow.
• If the exhaust air pipeline is routed though cool rooms, lofts etc. there can be a large temperature fi160603svyNEG drop within the individual parts of the pipeline, resulting in sweating or condensation water production. This renders outlet pipeline insulation necessary.
• In some cases a condensation water barrier must be installed in addition to adequate insulation (these are available from leading building material suppliers).
