Important safety information

Warning
Danger of suffocation!
Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never allow children to play with packaging material.

Warning
Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are drawn back in.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as room air-dependent heat- producing appliance is being operated.

Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal- operated 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 air through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).
In combination with an activated vapour extractor hood, room air is extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms – a partial vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is supplied. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space

  • Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.
  • An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure compliance with the limit.

Safe operation is possible only when the partial vacuum in the place where the heat-producing appliance is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when 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.

In any case, consult your responsible Master Chimney Sweep. He is able to assess the house’s entire ventilation setup and will suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour extractor hood is operated exclusively in the circulating-air mode.

Warning
Risk of fire

  • Fatty deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Regularly clean the grease filter. Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.
  • Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Never work with naked flames close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do not install the appliance near a heat-producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g. wood or coal) unless a closed, non-removable cover is available. There must be no flying sparks.
  • Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never fat can ignite very quickly.
  • Operating several gas burners at the same time gives rise to a great deal of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire. Never operate two gas burners simultaneously on the highest flame for longer than 15 minutes. One large burner of more than 5 kW (wok) is equivalent to the power of two gas burners.

Warning
Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance.

Warning
Risk of injury!

  • Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.

Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient.
Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.
Saving energy

  • During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient supply of air so that the extractor hood can work efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
  • Adjust the fan speed to the intensity of the cooking fumes. Only use intensive mode where this is required. A lower fan speed means that less energy is consumed.
  • If there are intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan speed in good time. If cooking fumes have already spread in the kitchen, the extractor hood must be operated for longer.
  • Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require it.
  • Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
  • Clean and, if required, replace the filter at regular intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.

Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances
(waste electrical and electronic equipment – WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Operating modes

Exhaust air mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.

Note: The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue or into a shaft which is used to ventilate installation rooms which contain heat-producing appliances.

  • Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the heating engineer responsible.
  • If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a telescopic wall box should be used.

Circulating-air mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an activated carbon filter and conveyed back into the kitchen.

Note : To bind odours in circulating-air mode, you must install an activated carbon filter. The different options for operating the appliance in circulating-air mode can be found in the brochure. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required accessories are available from specialist retailers, from customer service or from the Online Shop.
