2 Safety Instructions andWarnings

2.1 For connection and operation

• The appliances are constructed in accordance with the relevant safety regulations.
• Connecting the appliances to the mains and repairing and servicing the appliances may only be carried out by a qualified electrician according to currently-valid safety regulations. For your own safety, do not allow anyone other than a qualified service technician to install, service or repair the product.
• If the mains supply cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, the Customer Service of the manufacturer or by another qualified person to avoid danger.
• The appliance may not be operated with an external timer or an external telecontrol system.
• Make sure there are no items (e.g. cleaning cloths) right next to the hob extractor. They could be sucked in by the air current. Liquids and small items must always be kept away from the appliance.
• Do not operate the appliance without grease fi lter.
• Filter with too much fat deposits causes fire hazard!
• Constant supervision is essential when deep-frying; fl ambéing is not permitted.
• A suffcient supply of inlet air must be provided when operating wood, coal, gas or oil heaters requiring a chimney. The permissible negative pressure which results from the hood in the location of the heaters requiring a chimney may not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) as this results in a risk of poisoning.
  Vapour also emits moisture into the air in the kitchen during the cooking process.
• Only a little moisture is removed from the

vapours in the convection air mode. This is why a sufficient supply of fresh air must always be provided, e.g. by opening the window or using domestic ventilation systems.

• Always make sure that the indoor climate is normal and comfortable (45 - 60% humidity).
• Switch the hob extractor down to a lower setting for around 20 minutes or activate the automatic delayed stop function every time the hob extractor is used in the convection air mode.

2.2 For persons

• These appliances may be used by children aged 8 years and over and by persons with physical, sensory or mental impairments or by persons who lack experience and/or know how, provided they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the appliance and have understood the risks relating to the appliance. Children may not play with the appliance. Cleaning and maintenance by the user may only be carried out by children when they are supervised.

4.3.3 Notes on the after run time

The fan motor should continue operating for another 10-20 minutes every time the hob has been used for cooking.

When the fan is switched off after having been in operation for at least 15 minutes, an automatic time lag at a low setting will follow for around 15 minutes.

This guarantees optimal functioning and the removal of remaining cooking steam.

When using a recirculating air filter, please always allow for a stop delay time of 10 - 60 minutes in order to optimally remove cooking odours.

When the fan is switched on again, in rare cases the odour molecules present in the fi liter may be combined with steam so that they are detected again. These remaining odours will disappear when the fan continues to operate.

Important

When the convection air mode is in operation, ventilation must be suffi cients in order for the air humidity to be removed.

5 Cleaning and care

Cleaning the metal grease fi iters

Clean the metal grease fi tters in the dishwasher or in mild soapy water at least once a month or in the event of excessive grease deposits and/or intensive use.

To remove the filter, lift up the fan cover and lift the U-shaped stainless steel ventilation plate in the suction intake opening upwards to remove it from the fan. Now remove the fiiter. To do so, press the lock in the recessed handle downwards and remove the fiiter.

The filter can be rinsed in a dishwasher. Stand the filter upright in the dishwasher. Please use only rinse aid that is suitable for use with aluminium in order to avoid damaging and discolouring the fi iters.

Never rinse right next to glasses or light-coloured porcelain.

Do not operate the fan without grease fi Iters!

After rinsing the filter, dry it and replace it in the fan. Please make sure that the recessed handle is visible after you have replaced the fi liter. If possible, wipe the easily accessible inside of the fan with a cloth dampened with detergent every time you replace a fi liter, while at the same time paying attention to protruding parts in the inside of the fan.

Fan cleaning and care

The fan is best cleaned every time you clean the fi iters.

Condensation water may collect under the fiiter after water has boiled rapidly with the lid of the pot removed. This is quite normal. The water should, however, be removed and the inside of the extraction housing cleaned.

The ventilation openings in the cover ensure that residual moisture resulting from cooking and cleaning can escape if necessary when the fan is not in operation and the cover is on.

Please clean the fi Iter and the inside of the fan if unpleasant remaining odours escape.

The fan is best cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild soapy water.

Service

The filter must remain accessible. Replace the charcoal filter mats of a charcoal filter every 5 to 24 months.

6 Extraction air system assembly

The hob and the fan can be connected with a fl exible hose or a fl at duct.

The exhaust air components for on these two options are supplied with the hob and are fitted into each other according to the illustration. Shorten the flat duct with a fine saw if necessary.

On point c

The fl exible connection piece is used for a worktop thickness of 600~mm . Please make sure that installation is as taut and crease-free as possible by shortening excess material.

On point f

Apply sealing tape to the plinth fan connecting pieces (f) before attaching the adapter piece (d) to the plinth fan (e).

Important:

The components must all be firmly fastened as shown with the adhesive tape enclosed after they have been attached.

Exhaust air duct components

Plinth fi Iter (optional):

6.1 6-pole fan plug connector

DANGER

Risk of electric shocks

The fan plug connection must be made before the mains connection!

The appliance must be cut off from the electricity supply before the plug retainer is opened again. The appliance may only be connected to the mains once the plug connection has been made.

The hob may only be switched on when the fan mating connector has been attached and the plug retainer closed.

Procedure

Connect the two 6-pole plus for the fan connection.

Open the plug retainer on the 6-pole plug (fan) of the hob and attach the 6-pole fan mating connector (e) until it is securely engaged.

6.2 Hob fan installation

• The product may only be connected by a qualified fitter according to applicable local regulations. The same applies for the extraction air connections. The fitter is responsible for proper functioning at the installation site.
• On installation, observe the relevant national building regulations and the regulations of the electricity suppliers.
• The hob fan can be operated in the extraction air and recirculation air mode.
• Lead the outgoing air outside through a ventilation shaft intended for this purpose or through the wall of the building.
• Outgoing air may not be led into a smoke or exhaust gas flue which is in operation. Contact the district master chimney sweep if you are in any doubt.
• A suffcient supply of inlet air must be provided if a wood, coal, gas or oil heater requiring a chimney is operated in the environment of the hob fan, since an insufficient supply of air results in a risk of poisoning. The safe operation of the hob extractor is guaranteed when the negative pressure resulting from the hob extractor does not exceed 0.04 mbar (4 Pa) and a sufficient supply of inlet air can flow into the room.
• Exhaust air pipes must comply with fire class B 1 DIN 4102.
• Please make sure that the minimum nominal width of the appliance connecting pieces is not reduced.
• A system recommended for the airflow and compatible with the hob extractor should always be used.
• The nominal width of the recirculation air pipe should not be less than 150mm .
• Exhaust air pipes should be as short as possible. They should not have a 90-degree angle; instead they should have soft bends and no reductions in their cross-section.
• Never use pipes with a diameter of less than 150~mm . No bends/angles may be laid 50~cm before the fan module.
• Always insert a straight piece of approx. 50~cm between two angles/bends.
• The cross-section of wall vents and the cut-out in the base panel should should at least correspond to the exhaust air pipe. The outflow opening must be at least 500~cm^2 . Reduce the height of the skirting boards or make corresponding openings.
• When installing the appliance make sure that the convection air unit is still accessible when the kitchen has been completely installed.
• If necessary levelling feet for the kitchen units must be moved.

PLEASE NOTE

When the convection air mode is in operation, ventilation must be sufficient in order for the air humidity to be removed.
