See "Operating procedure" Section.
If is not possible to operate the extractor hood:
- Disconnect the extractor hood from the mains electricity supply by pulling out the plug or switching it off at the main fuse box.
Wait for approx. 1 minute and then switch it on again.
Please contact customer service regarding any queries or faults.
(See list of customer service centres).
When calling, please quote:
E-no.
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.
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.
The manufacturer cannot be made responsible for damage which can be attributed to non-observance of the safety instructions.

RISK OF INJURY
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.
Technical safety
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 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.
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.

RISK OF POISONING
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.

- Adequate intake air must therefore always be provided.
An intake/exhaust air wall box alone does not ensure compliance with the limit value.
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.
- If the extractor hood is used in circulating air mode only, it can be operated without any restrictions.
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 .
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 that one large burner of more than 5kW (Wok) is equivalent to the power of 2 gas burners.
The extractor hood may be damaged by the intense heat.
- 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.
Proper use
Clean the extractor hood thoroughly before 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.

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.
Correct installation
- Check the manufacturer's specifications for the cooker to determine whether an extractor hood can be operated over it.
If the manufacturer of the cooker has not specified any significant safety distances, the following minimum distances apply - 550mm between electric hob and the lower edge of the extractor hood, Fig. 1.
- 650mm between gas hob (upper edge of pan support) and the lower edge of the extractor hood, Fig. 1.
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, non-detachable 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.
Operating modes
The extractor hood can be used in exhaust air and circulating air mode. The standard setting is exhaust air mode.
Exhaust-air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.
Appliance dimensions Exhaust air

Circulating-air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an activated carbon filter and conveyed back into the kitchen.
An activated carbon filter must be installed to bind odours in circulating-air mode (see "Removing and installing the grease filters").
The complete installation set as well as the replacement filters are available from specialist outlets, customer service or the Online Shop. The accessory number can be found at the end of the operating instructions.
The socket must be attached at least 170mm below the ceiling.
Appliance dimensions Circulating air

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.

Maximum power is obtained at the intensive setting. It is only required for short intervals.
The Int key for the intensive level should be pressed when browning and frying in an open pan.
If you have switched on the hood by selecting the intensive level, it will be switched off again automatically after 5 minutes.
If you press the Int key while the hood is running at fan level 1, 2 or 3, the electronic control will switch back automatically to the previously selected fan level after 5 minutes.
If you would like to end the intensive level before the five minutes have elapsed, press the 0 key ("Motor off") or select a different level. It is possible to switch off the extraction function at any time by pressing the 0 key (motor "off").
Special functions
Intensive time:
- You can set the intensive level running time to 3, 5 or 10 minutes by simultaneously pressing the Int key and the 1, 2 or 3 key and you can store this setting. When delivered, the appliance is set to five minutes, i.e. the combination of the Int key and the key 2.
Fan follow-on:
- Delayed shut-off is possible at any level. First press the required key 1, 2, 3 or Int and then press the key. The delayed shut-off time for all levels is ten minu-tes. After these ten minutes, the ventilation switches off, but the lighting stays on.
Interval ventilation:
- Interval ventilation is a special feature of this appliance which periodically activates the fan for five minutes every hour. You can activate this function by simultaneously pressing the 0 key and, depending on the required extraction capacity, the 1, 2 or 3 key.
This mode of operation is indicated by alternating illumination of the key together with the corresponding fan level indicator.
You can switch off interval ventilation by pressing the 0 key.
Lighting:
- Briefly press the button to switch the light on and off.
The light can be switched on at any time, even though the fan is switched off.
Adjusting the brightness: Hold down the button until the desired brightness is obtained.

Metal-mesh grease filters
The metal-mesh grease filters absorb the grease particles from the kitchen fumes.
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 metal-mesh grease filters together with utensils.
...byhand
- 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.

Exhaust-air mode
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 nonfunctioning 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.
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 noncombustible 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.
Connecting pipes
The diameter of the exhaust air pipes should not be less than 150~mm
Round pipes: We recommend an inner diameter of 150mm however at least 120~mm
- Flat ducts must have the same inner cross-section as round pipes. There should be no sharp bends. 150mm approx. 177~cm^2 120mm approx. 113~cm^2
If pipe diameters differ: Use sealing strips.
Connection of 150mm 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.


Connection of 120mm exhaust air pipe
- Attach reducing connector directly to the air-pipe connector.
