Safety during operation

DANGER!
Warning – Death hazard!
Combustion gases may cause life-threatening danger due to poisoning. Ventilated combustion products, for example, heaters (shower heaters, water heaters, other heaters) burning gas, oil, wood, or coal, use air from their surroundings for combustion and discharge the waste gas through a waste gas system (for example a flue). When a cooker hood is active, it pulls in air from the kitchen and neighboring rooms. If a sufficient air supply is not provided, negative air pressure will occur, causing the toxic combustion gas in the flue and waste gas channel to flow back into the room. During simultaneous use of the cooker hood’s air discharge outlet and any ventilated combustion product, make sure there is enough air inflow.

WARNING!
Risk of fire!

• Clean the grease filters once a month. The oil residue in the grease filters may catch fire.
• Never operate the product without the grease filters.
• Never work with an open flame (for example flambé) near the product. The oil residue in the grease filters may catch fire.
• Do not install the product near a heater burning solid fuel (for example wood or coal) unless it has a non-removable cover. Ensure that no sparks can shatter.
• Never leave hot oils and fats unattended. They can easily start a fire. If a fire starts, turn off the cooker, and kill the flames carefully using a cover, fire blanket, or a similar material.
• Never try to put out the fire with water.
• Operate gas cookers only when there is a cooking pot on them. Otherwise, they can create high heat during operation which can lead to a damaged or burned cooker hood.
• Never operate two gas cookers (or a large burner over 15 kW, for example, a wok pot) longer than 15 minutes on a high flame setting. Operating multiple gas cookers simultaneously creates high heat which can lead to a damaged or burned ventilation product.

WARNING!

• Be careful when using the product simultaneously with combustion products, for example, heaters that use gas, diesel fuels, coal, wood, etc., which use air from the same  space. The cooker hood leads away air from the shared space and could adversely affect the combustion. This warning does not apply to uses without a flue.
• When the product is used simultaneously with products that use gas or other fuels, there must be sufficient ventilation in the room.
• The product should be cleaned regularly. There is a risk of fire if the product is not cleaned regularly

WARNING!
In case of deflagration, turn off the product and cover the flame. Never use water to extinguish a fire.

WARNING!

• Do not use non-fire-resistant filtering materials instead of the filter.
• Do not operate the product without a filter, and do not remove the filters when the product is in operation.

WARNING!
Do not touch the product’s lamps when they have been on for a long time. The lamps will be hot and may burn you.

WARNING!

• Do not cook flammable foods under the product.
• Do not start the product before the cookware is placed on the stove.
• Turn off the cooker’s burner before removing the cookware.
• Do not leave boiling oil on the stove. Pots that contain boiling oil may catch fire by themselves.

Save energy

Here are some recommendations for how you can save energy.

• Ensure there is adequate air inlet to enable your hood to work efficiently with low operating noise.
• Adjust the fan speed level according to the amount of steam brought on by your cooking. Use the higher setting only when needed. A lower fan setting means less energy consumption.
• If you expect your cooking to bring about a high amount of steam and smoke, select a higher fan speed level beforehand. The hood has to run for a much longer duration in order to clear kitchen smoke and/or steam that is already spread in the kitchen.
• Turn off the hood when it is not needed.
• Clean the metal grease filters regularly, this way you can increase ventilation efficiency and avoid a fire hazard.
• For installations with carbon filters, replace the carbon filter every 3 months.
