enOperating modes
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.

Operating modes

The saturation indicator must be adjusted to the selected operating mode and the filters used. “Setting the saturation indicator”, Page 28
4.1Air 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 service or from the online shop. “Accessories”, Page 34
