Warning:

Risk of poisoning caused by combustion gases.

Do not use the induction hob with integrated extraction system without sufficient ventilation at the same time as a cooker that uses the air in a room. Cookers that use the air in a room (for example appliances that work on gas, oil, wood or coal or other appliances such as geysers and hot water appliances) draw the combustion air from the room and discharges the gases via a drain to the outside. Combined with a induction hob with integrated extraction system, the air is drawn out of the kitchen and adjacent rooms. If there is insufficient air supply, this creates a vacuum. Toxic gases from the drain are sucked backed into the living area.

• Obey the local standards for extracting air.
• Do not use the appliance without the grease filter.
• Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.
• Make sure that the complete appliance is cleaned at least once a month. Failure to do so can result in risk of fire.

WORKING PRINCIPLE OF THE HOOD

The extraction part of the appliance is used for handling the air of cooking fumes. The appliance can be installed in two different ways.

Extracting

The cooking fumes are extracted outside.

Warning:

Never connect the pipe to a duct that contains gas or other fuels.

Recirculation

The cooking fumes go through carbon filters, longlife carbon filters or a plasma filter. The filter purifies the fumes and recirculates these back to the kitchen.

A good outflow of the air is necessary.

Extra information

Note:

New houses in the Netherlands may no longer vent outside.

For recirculation, it is necessary to use carbon filters, longlife carbon filters or a plasma filter. For more information on the differences between regular carbon, longlife carbon and plasma filters go to the website www.inventum.eu.

Attention:

Longlife carbon filters should be replaced every five years.

• Attention:

Regular carbon filters should be replaced every six months.

• Attention:

A plasma filter is not included. You need to order it.
