DIK106750 - Basket BOSCH - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL DIK106750 BOSCH

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.

This extractor hood complies with all relevant safety regulations.

Repairs should be carried out by qualified technicians only.

Improper repairs may put the user at considerable risk.

Before using your appliance for the first time, please read these Instructions for Use carefully. They contain important information concerning your personal safety as well as on use and care of the appliance.

Gas hobs / Gas cookers

Do not use all the gas hotplates simultaneously for a prolonged period (max. 15 minutes) at maximum thermal load, otherwise there is a risk of burns if the housing surfaces are touched or a risk of damage to the extractor hood. If the extractor hood is situated over a gas hob, operate the hood at maximum setting if three or more gas hotplates are operated simultaneously.

Note that one large burner of more than 5 kW (Wok) is equivalent to the power of 2 gas burners.

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.

Safety instructions

Do not flambé food directly under the extractor hood. Risk of grease filter catching fire due to flames.
The hotplates must always be covered with a utensil.
Restrictions apply to the use of the extractor hood over a solid-fuel burner (coal, wood, etc.). (See Installation instructions).

CONTROLS:Press the P push button.

If the intensive setting is not cancelled by hand, the fan will automatically switch back to step 2 after 5 minutes.

Grease filters:

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

The filter mats are made from noncombustible 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

When the grease filter becomes saturated, the display symbol F appears. The grease filter 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 after 8 to 10 weeks.
The filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher. 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. 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 catch on the grease filters inwards and fold the filters down. Fig. 1.
2. Clean the filters.
3. Insert the clean filters back into the hood.
4. Cancel the F indication in the display.
   Swith the motor off (stop position).
   Press for some seconds at the same time 0 and T. A signal sounds and the display symbol at the side goes out.

Activated carbon filter:

For neutralizing odours in recirculating mode.

Saturation indicator:

When the activated carbon filter becomes saturated the display symbol . Lights up and a signal sounds.

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.

Filters and maintenance

2. Rotate the closures by 90^ and remove the activated carbon filter downwards. Fig. 3.
3. Insert 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× year.
A replacement filter can be obtained from any authorized dealer.
Use original filters only. By doing so you will obtain maximum performance from your extractor hood.

Disposing of the old activated carbon filter:

There are no pollutants in the activated carbon filters. They can therefore be disposed of as part of your normal domestic refuse.

The electronic controls allow automatic control of the fat filters and the carbon filters (only when the hood is used in filtering version), so that the user does not have to remember when maintenance was last carried out.

When the metallic fat filters have to be cleaned, then F on the display will flash. When the carbon filters have to be replaced, on the display will flash. It is possible to interrogate the electronic system concerning how clean the fat filters are and how worn the carbon filters are, as follows: stop the motor and ...

... To find out how clean the fat filters are, press the 0 and - buttons at the same time. On the display, a number between 0 and 9 will appear, the smaller the number, the dirtier the filter is and vice versa.

... To find out how worn the carbon filters are, press the 0 and + button at the same time. On the display a number between 0 and 9 will appear, the smaller the number, the more worn the filter and vice versa.

Isolate the extractor hood by pulling out the mains plug or switching off the fuse.

Do not clean the extractor hood with abrasive sponges or with cleaning agents which contain sand, soda, acid or chlorine!
Clean the extractor hood with a hot soap solution or a mild window cleaner.
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.
Note: Do not use alcohol (spirit) on plastic surfaces, as dull marks may appear.

Caution: Ensure that the kitchen is adequately ventilated. Avoid naked flames!

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.
