• Do not let children play with small parts.

WARNING ‒ Risk of poisoning! Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or cooperated heaters, continuous flow heaters or water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney). With the extractor hood switched on, air is extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms. Without an adequate supply of air, the air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.

• Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as a room-air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.
• It is only possible to safely operate the appliance if the pressure in the room in which the heating appliance is installed does not fall below 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means. An incoming/ exhaust air wall box alone is not sufficient to ensure compliance with the limit.
• In any case, consult your responsible chimney sweep. They are able to assess the house’s entire ventilation setup and will suggest suitable ventilation measures to you.
• Unrestricted operation is possible if the appliance is operated exclusively in circulating- air mode.

WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!
