• Use pipes with a diameter of 120 mm when connecting a flue to your product. The pipe connection should be as short as possible and with few bends.

Safety of Use

• Poisoning Danger! While the appliance is operating, air is drawn from the whole house. If adequate ventilation is not provided, air flow occurs and the waste and toxic gases released as a result of combustion in the house are reabsorbed. Do not operate the product together with products that provide air circulation and may emit toxic gas (wood, gas, oil and coal stoves, boilers, water heaters, etc.).
• Ensure that the appliance is switched off after every use.

• Do not touch the lamps of your hood after operating the hood for a long time. Hot lamps may burn your hand.
• Do not operate the appliance without an oil filter. Do not remove the filters while the appliance is operating. Otherwise the product and electrical connections may be adversely affected by the oil.
• Do not create a high flame under the product. Otherwise, the oil in the oil filter may ignite, causing a fire.
• Turn off the oven before taking the cooking pots, pans, etc. from the ovens. Otherwise, your product could be harmed by flame and growing heat.
• Never set anything combustible or items prone to falling on your hood. Otherwise, it could fall on the hop and risk burning them or fall into the food and hurt the user,
• Do not keep easily flammable materials under your hood.
• (For Models A and B) Run your hood for another 15 minutes after the cooking or frying process to clean the kitchen air thoroughly of the odours and vapours generated during cooking.
• (Except for goods that return exhaust air to the room) The room needs to be well ventilated if the hood is utilized in the same area as gas or liquid fuel burning equipment.
• The chimney of appliances like room heaters that run on gas or liquid fuel must be entirely insulated in the environment where the hood is utilized, or the appliance must be hermetic.
• If there is another appliance operating with energy other than electrical energy in the same environment with the hood, the negative pressure in the room should be at most 0.04 mbar so that the exhaust of the other appliance is not drawn back into the room by the hood.
• Easily flammable and combustible materials should not be hung on the hood handles (if any).
• There should not be open fire under the hood. (for example: flambe)
• Caution: Accessible parts can heat up when used with a cooker.

Maintenance and Cleaning Safety

• The grease accumulated on the hood and grease filter must be cleaned at the specified intervals. Otherwise, there is a risk of fire!
• It is recommended to clean the filter once a month under normal usage. If not, the build-up of oil in the filter could catch fire and pose a hazard.
• Never wash the product by spraying or pouring water on it! There is the risk of electric shock!
• Do not use steam cleaners to clean the product as this may cause an electric shock.

Maintenance and Cleaning

General Cleaning Information
General warnings

• Wait for the product to cool before cleaning the product. Hot surfaces may cause burns!
• Do not apply the detergents directly on the hot surfaces. This may cause permanent stains.
• The product should be thoroughly cleaned and dried after each operation. Thus, food residues shall be easily cleaned and these residues shall be prevented from burning when the product is used again later. Thus, the service life of the appliance extends and frequently faced problems are decreased.
• Do not use steam cleaning products for cleaning.
• Some detergents or cleaning agents cause damage to the surface. Unsuitable cleaning agents are: bleach, cleaning products containing ammonia, acid or chloride, steam cleaning products, descaling agents, stain and rust removers, abrasive cleaning products (cream cleaners, scouring powder, scouring cream, abrasive and scratching scrubber, wire, sponges, cleaning cloths containing dirt and detergent residues).
• No special cleaning material is needed in the cleaning made after each use. Clean the appliance using dishwashing detergent, warm water and a soft cloth or sponge and dry it with a dry cloth.
• Be sure to completely wipe off any remaining liquid after cleaning and immediately clean any food splashing around during cooking.
• Do not wash any component of your appliance in a dishwasher unless otherwise stated in the user’s manual.

Inox – stainless surfaces

• Do not use acid or chlorine-containing cleaning agents to clean stainless-inox surfaces and handles.
• Stainless-inox surface may change colour in time. This is normal. After each operation, clean with a detergent suitable for the stainless or inox surface.
• Clean with a soft soapy cloth and liquid (non-scratching) detergent suitable for inox surfaces, taking care to wipe in one direction.
• Remove lime, oil, starch, milk and protein stains on the glass and inox surfaces immediately without waiting. Stains may rust under long periods of time.
• Cleaners sprayed/applied to the surface should be cleaned immediately. Abrasive cleaners left on the surface cause the surface to turn white.

• Under no circumstances should the dried-up residue on the glass surface be cleaned off with serrated knives, wire wool or similar scratching tools.
• You can remove the calcium stains (yellow stains) on the glass surface with the commercially available descaling agent, with a descaling agent such as vinegar or lemon juice.
• If the surface is heavily soiled, apply the cleaning agent on the stain with a sponge and wait a long time for it to work properly. Then clean the glass surface with a wet cloth.
