2000 m above sea level. Do not use the appliance: ¡ With an external timer.
1.3Restriction on user group This appliance may be used by children aged 8 or
over and by people who have reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities or
inad-
equate experience and/or knowledge, provided that they are supervised or have
been instructed on how to use the appliance safely and have understood the
resulting dangers. Do not let children play with the appliance. Children must
not perform cleaning or user maintenance unless they are at least 15 years old
and are being supervised. Keep children under the age of 8 years away from the
appliance and power cable. 1.4Safe use
WARNING Risk of suffocation! Children may put packaging material over their
heads or wrap themselves up in it and suffocate. Keep packaging material away
from chil-
dren. Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial. Children may breathe in or swallow small parts, causing them to
suffocate. Keep small parts away from children. 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
coaloperated 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
2
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 the
suitable ventilation measures to you. Unrestricted operation is possible if
the appliance is operated exclusively in circulating-air mode.
WARNING Risk of fire! Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch fire.
Never operate the appliance without a
grease filter. Clean the grease filters regularly. Never work with naked
flames close to the
appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do not install the appliance near a solid
fuel heating appliance (e.g. wood- or coalburning) unless the heating
appliance has a sealed, non-removable cover. There must be no flying sparks.
Hot oil or grease ignites very quickly. Always supervise hot oil and fat.
Never extinguish burning oil or fat with water. Switch off the cooking zone.
Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or something similar.
WARNING Risk of burns! The accessible parts of the appliance become hot during
operation. Never touch these hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance. The
appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the appliance to cool down
before
cleaning.

3 Environmental protection and saving energy Environmentalprotectionandsavingenergy
3.1Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
Sort the individual components by type and dispose
of them separately.
3.2Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power. Adjust
the fan speed to the amount of steam produced during cooking. ¡ The lower the
fan speed, the less energy is con-
sumed. Only use the intensive mode as required.
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select a higher fan speed in good
time. ¡ The odours are distributed around the room less.
Switch off the lighting if it is no longer required. ¡ When the lighting is
switched off, it does not con-
sume any energy. Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals. ¡ The
effectiveness of the filter is retained.
Put the cooking lid on. ¡ The cooking vapours and condensation are re-
duced. Only use the additional functions if required. ¡ Switching off
additional functions reduces power
consumption.
4 Operating modes Operatingmodes
You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or circulating-air mode.
4.1Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the
exterior by a pipe system.
4
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the room). ¡ If the exhaust air is to be
conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must obtain the consent
of the heating engineer responsible. ¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed through
the external wall, a telescopic duct should be used.
4.2Air recirculation
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an odour
filter, and conveyed back into the room.
To bind odours in air recirculation mode, you must install an odour filter.
The different options for operating the appliance in air circulation mode can
be found in our catalogue. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required
accessories are available from specialist retailers, from our after-sales
