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 e Installation accessories for circulating air mode. Ventilation duct AD280/281-126 for ceiling heights of 2.44-2.76 m AD280/281-136 for ceiling heights of 2.76-2.98 m.. © Anactivated carbon filter must be fitted for this operating mode (see Filters and maintenance). © 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. VAN If no activated carbon filter is installed, it is not possible to bind the odorous substances in the cooking vapours.

Coanda effect You do not need to activate the Coanda effect. The Coanda air flow is always active at every fan level. Cooking vapours are extracted particularly well at the front of the cooking field. The Coanda effect may allow you to operate the extractor hood at a lower, quieter level than you were previously accustomed to. The Coanda air flow exits the top of the extractor hood's front panel. Do not place any objects on the extractor hood: these may disrupt the Coanda effect.

Filters and maintenance 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: F The grease filter saturation display F flashes after an operating time of 30 hours to you indicate to you that you should clean the grease filter. The grease filters can of course be cleaned at any time, even if the grease filter saturation display has not started to flash. Cleaning the metal grease filters: © In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily), the metal grease filter must be cleaned 1xa month. © The filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher. lt 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: IMPORTANT: The lighting must be switched OFF and cool. 1 Press the catch on the grease filters inwards and fold the filters down. At the same time take hold of the underside of the grease filters with your other hand. 2 Cleanthe filters. 3 Insertthe clean filters back into the hood. 4 CanceltheFinthe display. - Press the button F.

Activated carbon filter For neutralizing odours in recirculating mode. 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. Installation and removal: IMPORTANT: The lighting must be switched OFF and cool. 1 Remove the metal-mesh filters (see "Removing and inserting the metal-mesh grease filters"). 2 Insertthe activated carbon filter. 3 Insert the metal grease filters (see "Removing and inserting the metal grease filters"). Replacing the activated carbon filter: © During normal operation (1 to 2 hours per day) the activated carbon filters should be replaced approximately 1 x year. e A replacement filter can be obtained from any authorized dealer (see optional accessories). e Use original filters only. By doing so you will obtain maximum performance from your extractor hood. Disposing of the old activated carbon filter: e There are no pollutants in the activated carbon filters. They can therefore be disposed of as part of your normal domestic refuse.

Cleaning and care Isolate the extractor hood by pulling out the mains plug or switching off the fuse. À Do not clean the extractor hood with abrasive sponges or with cleaning agents which contain sand, soda, acid or chlorinel e Clean the extractor hood with a hot soap solution or a mild window cleaner. Wichtig: Es darf keine Flüssigkeit in den Schlitz für den Luftaustritt eindringen. © Do not scrape off dried-on dirt but wipe off with a damp cloth. © When cleaning the grease filters, remove grease deposits from accessible parts of the housing. This prevents the risk of fire and ensures that the extractor hood continues operating at maximum efficiency. À Clean the operating buttons with a mild soapy solution and a soft, damp cloth only. Do not use stainless-steel cleaner to clean the operating buttons.

Stainless steel surfaces: © Use a mild non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. © Cleanthe surface in the same direction as it has been ground and polished. e We recommend our stainless steel cleaner no.

VAN Important information Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. Before disposing of your old appliance, render it unusable. You received your new appliance in a protective shipping carton. All packaging materials are environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please contribute to a better environment by disposing of packaging materials in an environmentally-friendly manner. Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authority about current means of disposal. The extractor hood can be used in exhaust air or circulating air mode. Always mount the extractor hood over the centre of the hob. Minimum distance between electric hob and bottom edge of extractor hood 600 mm, Fig. 1. The extractor hood must not be installed over a solid fuel cooker - a potential fire hazard (e.g. flying sparks) - unless the cooker features a closed, non- removable cover and all national regulations are observed. The smaller the gap between the extractor hood and hotplates, the greater the likelihood that droplets will form on the underside of the extractor hood. Additional information concerning gas cookers: When installing gas hotplates, comply with the relevant national statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI). Always comply with the currently valid regulations and installation instructions supplied by the gas appliance manufacturer. Only one side of the extractor hood may be installed next to a high-sided unit or high wall. Gap at least 50 mm. Minimum distance on gas hotplates between the upper edge of the trivet and lower edge of the extractor hood: 700 mm, Fig. 1.

Exhaust air should neither be directed into a smoke or exhaust flue that is currently used for other purposes, nor into a shaft that is used for ventilating rooms in which stoves or fireplaces are also located. Exhaust air may be discharged in accordance with official and statutory regulations only (e.g. national building regulations). Local authority regulations must be observed when discharging air into smoke or exhaust flues that are not otherwise in use. 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.

Unrestricted operation is possible if the extractor hood is used in recirculating mode - with activated carbon filter. If the exhaust air is going to be discharged into the open, a telescopic wall box should be fitted into the outside wall.

For optimum extractor hood efficiency: Short, smooth air exhaust pipe. As few bends in the pipe as possible. Diameter of pipe to be as large as possible and no tight bendés in pipe. If long, rough exhaust-air pipes, many pipe bends or smaller pipe diameters are used, the air extraction rate will no longer be at an optimum level and there will be an increase in noise. À The manufacturer of the extractor hoods accepts no liability for complaints which can be attributed to the design and layout of the pipework. Round pipes: We recommend Internal diameter: 150 mm. Flat ducts must have an internal cross-section that equates to that of round pipes. There should be no sharp bends. $ 150 mm approx. 177 cm° If pipes have different diameters: Insert sealing strip. For exhaust-air mode, ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air. Connecting a @ 150 mm exhaust-air pipe: Mount the pipe directly onto the air outlet on the hood.
