Preface With your new extractor hood, working in the kitchen will be even more fun. The appliance offers you a number of advantages: — a good extraction capacity with low noise values, — a large number of control functions, — optimum illumination of the cooking surface by a dimmable halogen light. To ensure that you will be able to use this appli- ance in all its diversity read through the operating and assembly instructions conscientiously before operating it for the first time. The instructions contain important notes on use, installation and maintenance of the appliance. On the following page you will find important notes on safety and operation. These will serve to ensure your personal safety and the lasting value of your appliance. You will find notes on page 4 that you ought to observe before operating the appliance for the first time. The chapters entitled “Structure and operating principle” and “Operation” will tell you all the things your extractor hood is capable of doing and how the appliance is operated. Tips and hinis in the chapter entitled “Cleaning and care” will make sure that your appliance will stay operable and beautiful for a long time. And now we wish you lots of fun with your new extractor hood.

— Damaged appliances must not be operated. — The appliance must only be connected by an authorised specialist, paying attention to the relevant regulations of the power supply companies and the regional construction regulations. Also observe the assembly instructions! — Connecting cables must not come into contact with hot cooking surfaces. — Do not operate the extractor hood without inserted lamps. — Never operate the appliance without a grease filter. — Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours must not be extracted! — The user is responsible for expert use and the perfect condition of the appliance. — Only operate the appliance under supervision. — Caution! Overgreased filters are a fire risk! Only ever deep-fry under the extractor under constant supervision. Be sure to clean the grease filter on a regular basis and change the activated charcoal filter. — Fire risk! Do not flambé meals under the extractor hood! — Operation of the extractor hood above a hearth for solid fuels, which poses a fire risk (e.g. sparks) is only permitted, if the hearth possesses a closed and fixed lid. The current local regulations must be obeyed. This does not apply to gas hobs and gas cookers. — Hobs may only be used under the extractor hood when pots and pans are placed on them! — When using more than 8 gas-operated rings at the same time, please operate the extractor hood at level 2 or higher. This prevents a build- up of heat in the appliance. — For safety reasons, do not place any heavy objects on the top of the appliance. Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaning apparatus or with water pressure because this poses a risk of short-circuits. Isolate the appliance from the mains during every maintenance operation. To do this, remove the mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse. If the mains plug is not accessible, the appliance must be switched off at fuse point. Repairs must be carried out by authorised specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety No warranty claims can be lodged in the event of damage caused by failure to observe these instructions. Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a wood, coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is operated in the same room as the one in which the hood is installed. Safe operation is possible whenever the partial vacuum in the place where the firing equipment is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or other technical means. If the appliance is to be operated only with the window open (to ensure adequate incoming air), you can use the window switch. À switch (normally open) is fitted on the window. On the appliance, this switch is connected to the window switch terminal on the main electronics. The appliance can now only be operated when the window is open. Important: the window switch must only be connected by an authorised specialist. Note: the light function works without restriction. After a power failure, the extactor will not go on again automatically You can recommence operation by tuning a knob or by pressing any key. Technical modifications reserved.

4. Cleaning and care

CETTE Fig. 13 OLOLOLOLDEOKS Fig. 14 Cleaning the grease filters 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 (see Fig. 8). The grease filters can of course be cleaned at any time, even if the grease filter saturation display has not started to flash. The stainless steel grease filters can be removed easily for cleaning (see Fig. 13): Disconnect the power supply (switch off the fuse). Grip the grease filter handle and push the slide towards the rear. Then pull the grease filter downwards out of the holder; repeat the operation for the other grease filters. You can clean the stainless steel grease filters in a dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65°C, where it should be supported vertically to allow food or rinsing residues to drain off. If possible, the inner parts of the housing should be wiped out in hot rinsing water when replacing the filters. Caution: when cleaning the inside of the housing, beware of protruding parts. After having cleaned them, re-insert the grease filters in the wall extractor in reverse order. Important: the handles of both grease filters must be visible after assembly. Press the F key to set the elapsed hours counter to zero. Flashing of the indicating lamp goes off.

Circulating air mode The activated charcoal filter eliminates kitchen smells in the circulating air mode. In normal use ( to 2 hours daily), the activated charcoal filter must be replaced approximately once a year. Fig. 15 If no activated charcoal filter is installed, kitchen smells will not be eliminated. Replacing the activated charcoal filter remove the stainless steel grease filters. Push in the clips on the side of the activated charcoal filter and remove the activated charcoal filter downwardly. Push the clips to the side and remove the activated charcoal filter towards the front. Insert the activated charcoal filter at an angle Note: be careful not to damage the light connector on the left side). Then push the filter upwards, until the clips on the side lock into place. Re-insert the stainless steel grease filters. Activated charcoal filters (KF 001-010) are available through your specialist dealer. Only use original filters. Activated charcoal filters do not contain any dangerous substances. They can be disposed of through the household refuse collection.1

Cleaning the extractor hood Clean the exterior of your extractor hood with a soft cloth and mild detergent solution. Do not use any strong, caustic or abrasive cleaning agents. Do not use any abrasive sponges or brushes either. Clean the stainless-steel extractor hood (AW 540/AW 542) with stainless steel cleaner. Cleaning the glass plates Apply commercially available window cleaning agent with a soft, moist cloth. To facilitate cleaning, you can detach the glass plates as follows: Detach the grease filters. In the extractor hood, you will find three openings on the upper side through which you can lift the glass plates singly with a blunt object (e.g. handle of a wooden spoon) to detach them with greater ease. If they are extremely soiled, the glass plates can be cleaned in a dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 55 °C. Note: when putting the glass plates back in place, make sure that you do not scratch the chimney. Replace the glass plates with the printed side facing down. Position the glass plates at the chimney side first. Cleaning the aluminium panel Clean the control panel with a sponge and mild detergent solution only. Dry with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use any strong or caustic cleaning agents or brushes and abrasive cleaner to clean it. Do not use strongly alkaline cleaning agents (such as oven spray) because these are aggressive to the aluminium surface. Do not use any abrasive sponges either.

Fig. 16 Fig. 17 Disconnect the appliance from the mains before carrying out any repairs. In the event of malfunctions, first of all check the household fuses. If the power supply is in proper working order, but the appliance is nevertheless not functioning, then please contact your specialist dealer or Gaggenau after-sales service. Specify the appliance type (see rating plate). Repairs must only be carried out by authorised specialists, thus ensuring the safety of the appliance. Improper tampering will render all warranty claims null and void. Lamp replacement Caution: disconnect the power supply before replacing lamps (switch off the fuse)! Caution: lamps may still be hot shorily after use! Risk of burns. — Detach the ring from the lamp cover. Note: make sure that the glass will not fall out (Fig. 16). — Pull out the lamp (Fig. 17). Defective lamps must only be replaced by lamps of the same type! (12 V/20 W/G4 lampholder) Inserting the lamp — Insert the lamp in the lampholder. Note: do not touch the halogen lamps with your hands. Use a cloth and touch the lamp only on its edges. — Engage the lamp cover. — Connect the appliance to the mains again.

6. Assembly instructions

AW 540/541-190: Weight: 23,5kg Dimensions: 898 x 550 mm AW 540/541-120: Weight: 27,5kg Dimensions: 1198 x 550 mm AW 542/543-120: Weight: 25,5kg Dimensions: 1198 x 550 mm Electrical connection Pay attention to the rating plate data. The mains connecting cable must at least correspond to the type H 05 VV-F G 0,75. The appliance must only be connected by an authorised specialist. The specialist is respon- sible for perfect functioning of the appliance at its installation location. He must explain the operating principle of the appliance to the user with refe- rence to the operating instructions. He must explain to the user how the appliance can be isolated from the mains whenever required. Connection possibilities The plug of the connecting cable is inserted into the socket that is located behind the duct cover on the wall. If this is not possible, the disconnection of all the poles of the appliance from the mains must be achieved by way of the domestic fuse, or by using an accessible disconnecting device with a contact gap of at least 3.0 mm.

The applicable regulations of the energy supply companies and the regional construction regulations must be observed when installing the hood. The minimum distance from the cooking surface to the bottom edge of the wall hood is 600 mm for electrical appliances. The minimum distance from the bottom edge of the pot stand to the bottom edge of the wall hood is 700 mm for gas appliances. The hood can be used in the exhaust or circulating air mode. The exhaust air can be routed into a separate exhaust air shaft or directly into the open through the outside wall. It is not allowed to pass the exhaust air into a flue or exhaust air chimney that is in operation or into a shaît that is linked to the heating basement. Consult the chimney sweep responsible for your district whenever you wish to pass the exhaust air into a chimney that is not in operation. During the course of planning, a chimney sweep must be consulted if a room air-dependent hearth is operated in the same room as the one in which a hood is operated in the exhaust air mode. Adequate incoming air must be ensured. The applicable construction and safety regulations must be observed. Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a wood, coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is operated in the same room as the one in which the hood is installed. Safe operation is possible whenever the partial vacuum in the place where the firing equipment is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or other technical means.

Flexible aluminium pipes, corrosion-protected sheet metal pipes and exhaust air pipes whose material conforms to fire B1 in accordance with DIN 4102 can be used. Exhaust air pipes should have a nominal diameter of 150 mm. Pay particular attention to ensuring that — the exhaust air ducts and pipes are kept as short as possible — the pipes are not laid at an acute angle, but as bends and that they are inserted into the shaft at an inclined upward angle and — there are no cross-sectional constrictions in the upward direction (this reduces the volume flow). As standard, the blow-out opening of the wall hood is in the upward direction. To pass exhaust air through the outer wall, we recommend the use of our telescopic wall box TM 150-046 (@ 150). Note: To prevent the ingress of water, e.g. condensate or rain water from an uncovered exhaust air shaft, our condensate separator RV 060-150 must be installed in the exhaust air line. The condensate separator must still be acciessible after installation. The duct units listed below are available depending on the height of the ceiling: Installation accessories for exhaust air mode Stainless steel-design ventilation duct: LK 010-012 for ceiling heights of 2.25-2.64 m LK 010-022 for ceiling heights of 2.64-3.02 m Aluminium-design ventilation duct: LK 011-012 for ceiling heights of 2.25-2.64 m LK 011-022 for ceiling heights of 2.64-8.02 m Installation accessories for circulating air mode Stainless steel-design ventilation duct: LK 010-112 for ceiling heights of 2.86-2.64 m LK 010-122 for ceiling heights of 2.64-3.02 m Aluminium-design ventilation duct: LK 011-112 for ceiling heights of 2.36-2.64 m LK 011-122 for ceiling heights of 2.64-3.02 m The dimensions above refer to a distance of 1.60 m from the floor to the bottom edge of the hood. If required, custom made duct units are available at an extra charge. The socket must be place behind the duct cover on the wall.

To use above gas cooker / gas hob Important: do not use all bumners on the highest setting simultaneously over a longer period of time (max. 15 minutes). This will pose a risk of bus when touching the hot appliance exterior or parts of the extractor hood may become damaged. Switch the extractor hood to the highest setting when three or more bumers of a gas cooker are used simultaneously.

The following note applies to extractor hood AW 542/543 only; these models do not have an integrated fan: The extractor hood can only be used in exhaust air mode. The exhaust air is conveyed upwards through an externally attached fan via a ventilation shaft or directly into the open air through the outer wall. The extraction function is realised by an external fan module. We recommend the fan modules GB 082-107 or GB 052/053-140 from our Gaggenau range; the extractor's electronic circuitry is optimised for these fan modules. For the electrical connection between the extractor hood and external fan see installation instructions for the external fan. For safety reasons, if the connecting cable to the external fan has been damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or the after sales service or similarly qualified persons.

Important: before marking the securing holes, make sure that no electricity or water lines or other lines are laid at the drilling points in the wall. Proceed as follows: - From the bottom edge of the hood, mark a center line on the wall. — With the aid of the drilling template, mark the positions of the screws on the wall (Fig. 19). — Pay attention to the minimum clearance of 600 mm for electric cookers and 700 mm for gas cookers. The bottom edge of the template corresponds to the bottom from edge of the hood. — Using the drilling template, drill the 6 holes for the hood (area I of the drilling template) and the two holes for suspending the chimney (area II of the drilling template). In the top two securing holes for the hood, fix the two hooks d with the countersunk screws ce. Make sure that the hooks lie flatly on the wall. In certain circumstances you may have to countersink the drill holes. Fit the included dowels a in the other drill holes. Note: pay attention to any special accessories that you may have to fit. — Screw on the retaining bracket for the chimney paneling. — Detach the grease filters. — Hang the hood on the two hooks. Adjust the suspended element with the recessed head screw and align the hood using a spirit level ŒFig. 20).
