USER MANUAL LX5H565 SIEMENS

This appliance conforms to the relevant safety regulations.

Repairs should only be carried out by qualified specialists.

Improperly executed repairs can give rise to significant hazards for the user.

⚠️ Note down the type designation of the external fan in the extractor hood operating instructions.

⚠️ Check whether this fan may be combined with the extractor hood. The licensed type HBD-MX12-8 must be indicated in the operating and installation manuals for the extractor hood.

⚠ The appliance should only be connected up to the mains and taken into use by a qualified specialist.

⚠️ Before carrying out repairs or maintenance, isolate the fan. To do this, disconnect the plug-and-socket connection of the electric cable which is connected to the extractor hood or disconnect the extractor hood power cord from the power supply.

⚠️ If the connecting cable for this appliance is damaged, the cable must be replaced by the manufacturer or his customer service or a similarly qualified person in order to prevent serious injury to the user.

⚠️ Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. If they are disposed of in an environment-friendly manner, valuable raw materials can be recovered for use again. Before you dispose of an old appliance, make sure that it has been rendered inoperative.

You can obtain information about the best method of disposing of old appliances and packaging from your dealer or local municipal council.

Prior to installation

The exhaust air must not be removed via a functioning smoke or exhaust-gas flue or via a duct which is used to ventilate a fireplace in the installation room.

Observe the official and statutory regulations for the removal of exhaust air (e.g. Landesbauordnungen).

Removal of exhaust air via a non-functioning smoke or exhaust-gas flue requires the consent of a heating engineer.

If the extractor hood is operating in exhaust-air mode at the same time as a flue-type heater (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel heater, instantaneous water heater, boiler), there must be an adequate air supply which the fireplace requires for combustion.

Safe operation is possible if the partial vacuum in the installation room of the fireplace does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

This can be achieved if the combustion air is able to flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and in conjunction with an air supply/air-intake wall box or by other technical procedures such as reciprocal interlocking.

If the air supply is inadequate, there is a risk of poisoning caused by combustion gases being drawn back into the room.

An air supply/air-intake wall box alone does not ensure compliance with the limiting value.

Note: When assessing the air supply, always take into account the entire ventilation system in the house. This rule does not apply when using cooking appliances, e.g. hob or gas cooker.

⚠ The fan must be attached at least 2 m from the extractor hood. ⚠️ Attach the inner wall fan inside the building only, but not in living rooms. ⚠ When attaching the inner wall fan, ensure that it is accessible for maintenance and repairs. ⚠ The plug-and-socket connections of the electric cables must be located inside the building. Do not reduce the 150 mm diameter of the pipes connected to the extractor hood. An additional silencer for 150 mm ∅ pipes is available as an optional accessory from specialist outlets.

Preparing the wall

☐ The wall must be flat and perpendicular. ☐ Ensure that the wall is capable of providing a firm hold for mounting screws and plugs.
