☐ The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours and conveys them through the grease filter into the atmosphere.
☐ The grease filter absorbs the solid particles in the kitchen vapours.
☐ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease and odours.

When the extractor hood is operated in exhaust-air mode simultaneously with a different burner which also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the burner for combustion.

Safe operation is possible provided that the underpressure in the room where the burner is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.

If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn back into the room.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.

Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and ovens.

Unrestricted operation is possible if the extractor hood is used in recirculating mode – with activated carbon filter.

Circulating-air mode:

☐ An activated carbon filter must be fitted for this operating mode (see Filters and maintenance).
⚠ The complete installation set and replacement filters can be obtained from specialist outlets.
☐ The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours which are purified in the grease filter and activated carbon filter and then conveyed back into the kitchen.
☐ The grease filter absorbs the grease particles in the kitchen vapours.
☐ The activated carbon filter binds the odorous substances.

⚠️ If no activated carbon filter is installed, it is not possible to bind the odorous substances in the cooking vapours.

Operating procedure

The most effective method of removing vapours produced during cooking is to:

☐ Switch the ventilator ON as soon as you begin cooking.
☐ Switch the ventilator OFF a few minutes after you have finished cooking.

Fan OFF Reduce fan speed Fan ON and increase speed Intensive setting

Acoustic signal:

☐ When a button is pressed, this is verified by an acoustic signal.

Setting the required fan speed:

☐ Press the + button. The fan speed is increased by one step.
☐ Press the – button. The fan speed is reduced by one step.

☐ Press the 0 button. The displayed ☐ goes out shortly afterwards.

Or:

- Keep pressing the – button until the fan switches off. The displayed ☐ goes out shortly afterwards.

Lighting:

☐ The light can be switched on at any time, even though the fan is switched off.

Grease filters:

Metal filters are used to trap the greasy element of the vapours that develop during cooking.

The filter mats are made from non-combustible metal.

Caution:

As the filter becomes more and more saturated with grease, not only does the risk of it catching fire increase but the efficiency of the extractor hood can also be adversely affected.

Important:

By cleaning the metal grease filters at appropriate intervals, the possibility of them catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat such as occurs when deep-fat frying or roasting is taking place, is reduced.

Saturation indicator: =

When the grease filters becomes saturated, the display symbol = lights up and a signal sounds. The signal is switched off when the fan is switched off. The grease filters should be cleaned straight away.

Cleaning the metal grease filters:

☐ In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily), the metal grease filter must be cleaned 1 x a month.
☐ The filters can be cleaned in a dish-washer. It is however possible that they will become slightly discoloured.
☐ The filter must be placed loosely, and NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.

Important:

Metal filters that are saturated with grease should not be washed together with other dishes etc.

☐ When cleaning the filters by hand, soak them in hot soapy water first of all. Do not use aggressive, acidic or caustic cleaners. Then brush the filters clean, rinse them thoroughly and leave the water to drain off.

Removing and inserting the metal grease filters:

Warning: The halogen bulbs must be switched off and cool.

1. Press the handles on the grease filters downwards and fold the grease filters down.

Caution:

As the filter becomes more and more saturated with grease, there is an increased risk of fire and the function of the extractor hood may be impaired.

Important:

Change the activated carbon filter promptly to prevent the risk of fire from the accumulation of heat when deep-fat frying or roasting.

Saturation indicator:

When the activated carbon filter becomes saturated, the display symbol lights up and a signal sounds. The signal is switched off when the fan is switched off.

The activated carbon filter should be replaced straight away.

Filters and maintenance

Installation:

Attention: The halogen bulbs must be switched off and must have cooled down.
