2. Product information
2.1 Functional principle

Centrifugal force
- Cooking vapours are drawn through a gap and into the hood where they are accelerated and routed through bends.
The resultant centrifugal force ejects particles of dirt (e.g. particles or grease and oil) out of the air. - The dirt particles are separated out and collected on the upper and lower section as well as a catchment screen ("Capillar Trap").
BackFlow technology
- Condensate or droplet formation on the decorative panel (e.g. if steam touches the cold surface) is prevented by a vent installed from the bottom to the top.
- Part of the vented air quantity is fed to the back of the extractor hood, blown over the glass front and directed into the suction gap.
2.2 Recirculated air mode

The device is used in recirculated air mode.
The filter filling in the recirculated air filter neutralises any smelly odours present. The odour-free, cleaned room air is fed back into the room. The humidity in the room can be reduced with the fresh air feed.
In recirculated air mode, it is necessary to use the run-on function so that the device can remove the remaining odours. Using the run-on function increases the life of the filter filling. The filter filling must be replaced at regular intervals.

After the electrical power is switched on, the device needs a few seconds to adjust to the surrounding conditions. No entries are possible during this time. The process is complete when the buttons illuminate weakly.
4.2.1 Normal operation
WARNING!
Fire hazard due to grease residue!
In operation grease residue, which is highly inflammable, collects in and on the device.
Clean the device properly.
"5. Cleaning" (page 124).
To achieve optimal efficiency in removing cooking fumes:
Turn the device on 1-2 minutes before you start cooking. This allows the flow of air to build up, and the fumes are removed at an early stage.
During the cooking process, switch to a power level that is appropriate for the intensity of the cooking vapours:
- Power level 1 - lowest fan power - when simmering food.
- Power level 2 - medium fan power - when cooking on one cooking zone.
- Power level 3 - high fan power - when cooking on several cooking zones.
If the intensity of the cooking fumes does not subside, switch to a higher power level.
Switch to the Power setting when searing. After 6 minutes, the device automatically switches back to power level 3.
To activate the Power setting permanently, the corresponding button must be pushed again.
Then the device doesn't switch back.
Check the fresh air supply at regular intervals.
Use the device also to reduce other unpleasant smells.
Such as from:
- Onions and garlic
Oven, microwave and steamer
Fondue and raclette
Turn on the run-on function when you have finished cooking.
After use, turn the device off. If the automatic run-on function is activated, the run-on time (10 minutes) starts in power level 1.
With use of the BackFlow technology, if a power level is active then a gentle air flow is routed from the air channel on the underside of the device to the front air inlet. This air circulation is necessary. The air channel on the underside of the device must never be closed off.
After 12 hours without operation, the device (including lighting), the device automatically shuts off.
4.2.2 Filter filling indicator
The device has a control indicator to remind the operator to change the filter filling. If no air circulation filter is used, the control indicator has no meaning.
The function is set so that the button flashes every 1,000 fan operating hours (flash duration 120 seconds) as soon as the device is turned off. The hours counter is restarted by switching off the control indicator.
