EN Note! Damper adjustment or speed changes must be carried out by a qualified professional.
Adjusting damper: Basic ventilation is set by moving the sliding damper. The damper becomes accessible for adjustment by removing the grease filter.
Changing the preset speeds: The output voltage of the speeds can be changed by reprogramming via the circuit breaker (contact Franke Service).
Open the damper by pressing button B. Loosen stop lug G by rotating it 180° (Torx/star screwdriver 10). Set the stop lug to the desired position. The markings on the damper correspond to the values in the "Basic flow" diagram – see following pages. The marking in the picture corresponds to position G7 in the diagram. Lock the stop lug. N.B. Make sure the lug is fully locked. Close the damper by pressing button B on the circuit breaker. Measure the pressure, Pm, at test point A and check that the desired basic flow has been achieved.
