If the hood is located over a gas cooktop, operate the hood at maximum setting whenever three or more gas burners are being used.
DO NOT operate the ventilation system during a cooktop fire.

All Hood models are rated for 120 VAC, using a 15 amp circuit breaker; see the Installation Manual for more details.

Operating the Hood

For Better Results

• The blower should be turned on for about 5 minutes before cooking in order to establish air currents upward through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced, they will be carried outside instead of drifting into other rooms.

• Use the low speeds for normal use and the higher speeds for strong odors or fumes.
  NOTE: It is not recomended to use the closed hood at more than the second speed.

• Drafts across the range or cooktop will reduce the effectiveness of the hood. Such drafts should be prevented when possible.

• The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done where the only air currents are those created by the blower itself.

• Regular use of the fan system while cooking helps keep the kitchen comfortable and less humid.

• Use a rear burner when browning or pan frying meat.

• For optimal performance, the width of the hood should equal that of the cooktop or rangetop or exceed it by 3 inches on either side. Install these hoods only with Thermador blowers.

• You can elongate 8” (203 mm) the front of the aspiration area, by pulling out the hood drawer.
  

Home Connect™

With Home Connect™, the appliance is Wi-Fi-capable and can be remotely controlled using a mobile device (e.g. tablet PC, smartphone). Home Connect™ app offers additional functions which are a perfect complement to the networked appliance.
Home Connect™ does not work over Wi-Fi networks that require browser registration, i.e. a user name and password entered via a web browser. You should have a stable wireless network with good reception and access to the internet.

If the appliance is not connected to the WLAN network (home network), it functions in the same way as a typical hood with no network connection and can be operated as usual via the Touch Panel.

NOTE: Please ensure that you follow the safety instructions given at the beginning of this instruction manual and that these are also observed when operating the appliance via the Home Connect™ app and when away from home. Please also follow the instructions in the Home Connect™ app.

NOTE: Operation on the appliance itself always takes priority, and during this time it is not possible to operate the appliance using Home Connect™ App.

Cooktop-Hood Sync

You can connect this appliance to a matching cooktop (if the cooktop supports connection to the hood) and then control the functions of the hood via your cooktop.

There are various options for connecting the appliances:

Home ConnectTM

Two appliances can be connected using the Home Connect™ app provided that both of them are Home Connect™ compatible.

Refer to the Home Connect™ documents supplied for more information.

Connecting appliances directly

If the appliance is connected directly to a cooktop, it cannot be connected to your home network as well. The appliance will function in the same way as a hood that is not connected to the network and you can continue to operate it via the touch control panel.

Connecting appliances via your home network

If the appliances are connected to each other via your home network, both the hood controls on the cooktop and Home Connect™ can be used to operate the appliance.

Notes

• Make sure you follow the safety instructions in the instruction manual for your hood and that these are complied with even when operating the appliance via the hood controls on the cooktop.
• If the hood is being operated by means of the touch control panel on the hood itself, this mode of operation always has priority. It is not possible to use the hood controls on the hob during this time.

Setting up a connection

To set up the connection between the hood and the cooktop, the hood must be switched off and the cooktop must be switched on before you can connect the cooktop and hood.

Care and Cleaning

Grease Filters Cleaning

WARNING
Be sure the entire appliance (including the filters and lights) has cooled and grease has solidified before attempting to clean any part of the appliance.

Your hood has removable aluminum mesh filters. They must be cleaned when the FILTER light illuminates on the touch panel or whenever they collect grease. When used over a grill, wok or other high grease applications, more frequent cleaning may be required.

The filters may be washed by hand or in the dishwasher. Soak the ventilation filters in hot water using a mild detergent. Rinse well and shake to dry. Slight discoloration can occur when cleaning the filters in a dishwasher. This has no influence on the function of the grease filters.

NOTE: Reverse the directions below to remove the filters. Ensure filters are cool and grease has solidified before removal.

NOTE: Do not use cooktop, rangetop, or range while hood is disassembled.

To Install Filters:

• Remove the filter by pulling the spring release filter latch and then pulling down the filter.
• Reinstall the filter by making sure the spring release filter latch is toward the front. Insert aluminum filter into upper track.
• Push in spring release filter latch.
• Push up on aluminum filter and release handle to latch into place.
