Disposal of the old appliance

Keep the operating and instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any subsequent owner of the appliance.

Old appliances are not worthless rubbish.

Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances.

This appliance is identified according to the European

Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment – WEEE). The directive specifies the framework for an EU-wide valid return and re-use of old appliances.

Before disposing of your old appliance, render it unusable.

Never treat your old appliance as nonrecyclable waste! Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authority about current means of disposal.

Please contact customer service regarding any queries or faults.

(See list of customer service centres). When calling, please quote:

FD The numbers can be found on the rating plate, after removal of the grease filter, inside the extractor hood.

Enter the numbered in the above fields.

Ensure that the old appliance is kept childproof until it is disposed of.

Intended use This extractor hood complies with the stipulated safety regulations. Improper use may result in injury or damage. The extractor hood may be used in the

household only. The manufacturer is not liable for damage which is caused by improper use or incorrect operation.

If the appliance is improperly installed, serviced or repaired, the user may be placed in considerable danger for which the manufacturer is not liable.

Changes to the electrical or mechanical installation are dangerous and must not be undertaken! They may also cause the extractor hood to malfunction.

The manufacturer cannot be made responsible for damage which can be attributed to non-observance of the safety instructions.

Simultaneous operation of the extractor hood with a heating appliance which is dependent on ambient air

Heating appliances which are dependent on ambient air, e.g. gas, oil, wood, or solid-fuel heaters, instantaneous water heaters, hot water boilers, hobs or ovens, and which draw combustion air out of the installation room and whose exhaust gases are conveyed to the exterior by a flue.

Do not allow children to play with the extractor hood! Adults and children must never operate the appliance unsupervised

– if they are not physically or mentally capable of doing so, – or if they do not have the knowledge and experience to operate the appliance correctly and safely.

The extractor hood left the factory in perfect condition. Nevertheless check the appliance for visible damage before installation. If it is damaged, do not switch it on! If the power cord of the extractor hood is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, his customer service or a similarly qualified person to prevent hazardous situations. Only a qualified technician may install (including electrical connection), service or repair the extractor hood. Always isolate the extractor hood by pulling out the mains plug or switching off the fuse!

If the extractor hood is operated at the same time as a heating appliance which is dependent on ambient air, there is a risk of poisoning due to combustion gases being drawn back in.

Safe operation is possible provided the low pressure in the installation room of the heating appliance does not exceed 4Pa (0.04mbar). This can be achieved if the combustion air can flow through non-closable openings, e.g. in doors, windows, in conjunction with air intake/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical measures.

Special information for gas cookers

When installing the extractor hood above gas hobs, observe the appropriate national statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI). Observe the currently valid installation regulations and instructions of the gas appliance manufacturer. During installation, ensure that only one side of the extractor hood is situated directly next to a high-sided unit or a wall. Otherwise, there is a risk of heat build-up. The gap between the extractor hood and the wall or high-sided unit must be at least 50 mm.

Adequate intake air must therefore always be provided.

An intake/exhaust air wall box alone does not ensure compliance with the limit value.

RISK OF BURNS Do not operate more than 2 gas cooking areas simultaneously over a period of max.

15 minutes at maximum thermal load. Due to the effect of the heat there is a risk of burns if the surfaces of the housing are touched!

NOTE: When making your evaluation, always consider the entire ventilation system in the home. Include the advice of a competent heating engineer when making your evaluation.

Note that one large burner of more than

5 kW (Wok) is equivalent to the power of 2 gas burners.

If the extractor hood is used in circulating air mode only, it can be operated without any restrictions.

Never operate a gas cooking area without a cooking utensil on it. Regulate the flame in such a way that it does not project over the cooking utensil.

The extractor hood may be damaged by the intense heat.

Correct installation

Clean the extractor hood thoroughly before

Check the manufacturer’s specifications for the cooker to determine whether an extractor hood can be operated over it.

using for the first time.

Before cleaning and servicing the extractor hood, isolate it from the power supply by pulling out the mains plug or switching off the fuse. Bulbs (especially halogen bulbs) become very hot during operation. Even some time after the appliance has been switched off, there is still a risk of burns! Before changing bulbs, isolate the extractor hood from the power supply and leave the bulbs to cool down! Do not operate the extractor hood without bulbs inserted. Always switch on the extractor hood if a

hotplate is being used. If the extractor hood is not switched on, condensation may form. As a result, the appliance may corrode.

Do not place any objects on the extractor hood.

If the manufacturer of the cooker has not specified any significant safety distances, the following minimum distances apply

– 550 mm between electric hob and the lower edge of the extractor hood – 650 mm between gas hob (upper edge of pan support) and the lower edge of the extractor hood, (siehe Abbildungen auf Seite 2). If various cookers are used, the greatest indicated distance applies. The width of the extractor hood must correspond to the width of the cooking area. The extractor hood must not be installed over a solid fuel heating appliance which may be a fire risk (e.g. flying sparks) unless the heating appliance has a closed, nondetachable cover and the country-specific regulations are observed. This restriction does not apply to gas cookers and gas hobs. To avoid damaging the hob, cover it when installing the extractor hood.

RISK OF FIRE Do not flambé under the extractor hood or work with a naked flame. When switched on, the extractor hood draws flames into the filter.

There is a risk of fire due to deposits on the grease filter! Do not leave pans, frying pans or deep-fat fryers unattended if you are cooking food with oils or fats, e.g. chips. Overheated oils or fats can easily ignite! A risk of fire can be prevented by cleaning the grease filters regularly and changing the activated-carbon filter in good time. Never operate the extractor hood without grease filters.

The extractor hood can be used in exhaust air and circulating air mode.

LOOKING AFTER THE APPLIANCE Metal-mesh grease filters

Suitable cleaning agents and care products for your appliance can be purchased via the

Hotline or from the Online Shop (see cover page).

The metal-mesh grease filters absorb the grease particles from the kitchen fumes.

NOTE: Observe the warranty regulations in the enclosed service booklet. The appliance surfaces and controls are scratch-sensitive. Therefore observe the following cleaning instructions: – Avoid cleaning the extractor hood with dry cloths, abrasive sponges, scouring agents, cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid, chlorine or any other aggressive substances. – Clean the appliance surfaces and controls with a soft, damp cloth, washing-up liquid or a mild window cleaner only. – Do not scrape off dried dirt, but moisten with a damp cloth. – Clean carefully in the area of the controls to avoid liquid from getting into the electronics.

NOTE: Clean the stainless steel surfaces in the direction of the ground surface only!

Do not use stainless steel cleaner for the control buttons!

The filter mats consist of fire-proof metal.

RISK OF FIRE As the filters become more saturated with greasy residue, the flammability increases. The function of the extractor hood may also be impaired.

The risk of fire is prevented by cleaning the metal-mesh grease filters in good time. When cleaning the grease filters, also remove grease deposits from the accessible parts of the housing with a damp cloth.

Cleaning the metal-mesh grease filters ...

Under normal operation (daily 1 to 2 hours), the metal-mesh grease filters must be cleaned 1x month.

... in the dishwasher

The metal-mesh grease filters can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Slight discolouration may occur but this will not affect the function of the grease filters. The filters must be placed loosely in the dishwasher. They must not be wedged in.

NOTE: Do not clean heavily saturated metalmesh grease filters together with utensils.

When cleaning by hand, soak the grease filters in a hot detergent solution, brush off the dirt, rinse thoroughly and leave to dry. Do not use any aggressive, acidic or alkaline cleaning agents. If dirt is particularly stubborn, we recommend using a special grease solvent spray. This can be ordered via the Online Shop.

Removing and installing the grease filters

Before removing and installing the grease filters, always follow the instructions and warnings in the chapter entitled ”Safety instructions”!

Activated carbon filters bind the odours in circulating-air mode.

Installation instructions

Prior to installation, always follow the instructions and warnings in the chapter entitled ”Safety instructions”!

The exhaust air is conveyed upwards via a

ventilation shaft or directly through the outer wall to the exterior.

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 heating appliances. Before conveying the exhaust air into a

non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the appropriate heating engineer.

Discharge exhaust air in accordance with the official and statutory regulations (e.g. regional building laws). If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a telescopic wall box should be used.

The diameter of the exhaust air pipes should not be less than 150 mm. Round pipes:

We recommend an inner diameter of

150 mm, however at least 120 mm. Flat ducts must have the same inner cross-

section as round pipes.

There should be no sharp bends. Ø 150 mm approx. 177 cm2 Ø 120 mm approx. 113 cm2 If pipe diameters differ:

Connection of 150 mm ø exhaust air pipe

(recommended size) Attach exhaust air pipe directly to the air-pipe connector and seal appropriately. If using an aluminium pipe, smooth the connection area beforehand.

To ensure optimum performance, the extractor hood requires:

– a short, straight exhaust air pipe and – the largest possible pipe diameter. If pipe bends cannot be avoided, ensure the largest possible radii.

NOTE: If long, rough exhaust air pipes, a lot of pipe bends or pipe diameters less than

150 mm are used, the air capacity will be less than optimum and there will be an increase in noise. Use only pipes or hoses made of non-

combustible material for installation of the exhaust air duct.

The manufacturer of the extractor hoods is not responsible for complaints which can be attributed to planning and design of the pipework.

Connection of 120 mm ø exhaust air pipe

Attach reducing connector directly to the airpipe connector. Attach exhaust air pipe to the reducing connector. Seal both joints appropriately.
