WARNING!
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP IT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE!
Safe use
•This appliance is only designed for household use.
•CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with
cooking appliances.
•This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and
above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
•Do not allow children to play with the appliance.
•Do not allow children to clean or maintain the appliance unless
supervised.
•Always provide adequate ventilation!
•There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the range
hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other
fuels.
•When the range hood and appliances supplied with energy other
than electricity are simultaneously in operation, the negative
pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 × 10-5 bar).
•Local regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be
fulfilled.
•Never use a pressure cleaner or steam cleaner to clean the
appliance.
ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Avoid the risk of electric shock; make sure the appliance is
switched off before cleaning the appliance.
•Only use the appliance inside the home.
4
Safety

•Do not use the cooker hood if the grease filter has not been fitted
properly!
•Do not lean against the cooker hood.
•Never use the cooker hood as a working surface unless this is
indicated explicitly.
•Grease and oil are inflammable when overheated. Remain in the
cooking area when preparing meals.
•To prevent hot fat from catching fire, you should only deep-fry
under continuous supervision.
•The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly both on the outside
as well as the inside (at least 1 x per month). Insufficient cleaning
or a delay in the replacement of filters can cause a fire hazard.
•Clean the filters on time.
•The grease filters can become hot during use. After cooking wait
at least 30 minutes before cleaning.
•Please note! Intensive use can lead to condensation on the
cooker hood. Condensation is simple to remove with a dry cloth.
•Follow the instructions in the manual for cleaning or replacing the
grease filters and/or carbon filters!
DANGER OF FIRE!
There is a risk of fire if the instructions for cleaning or replacing
grease filters and/or carbon filters are not followed.
Through grease deposits in the metal grease filter. Never work
with open flame under the appliance (eg. flambéing). Always use
the appliance with the metal grease filter. Clean the grease filter
regularly.
Through overheated fat or oil. Never extinguish a fire with water;
always use a fire blanket, lid or plate.
•The appliance may have sharp edges; please be careful during
cleaning.
5
Safety

•The light emitted by LED lights is very dazzling and can damage
the eyes. Do not look directly into the switched on LED lights for
longer than 100 seconds.
•When washing grease filters in the dishwasher it is recommended
to use a short, non-intensive programme. Check the grease filter
after washing in the dishwasher for wear (loose material). Wear
can occur as a result of frequent washing. If loose material is
visible, replace the filters in order to prevent this loose material
from ending up in the food that is cooked.
•Do not use the appliance in temperatures below 5 °C.
•Keep a 20 cm separation distance to the appliance.

Wi-Fi-connectivity

Cleaning
WARNING!
Important! For all maintenance, first, switch off the mains power to the cooker hood by pulling
the plug out of the socket or by turning off the home's master switch. The hood needs to be
cleaned regularly, both inside as well as outside (at least as often as the grease filter).
Do not use abrasive cleaning products. Do not use alcohol!
If the instructions regarding cleaning the appliance or replacing the filters are not followed, this
can cause a fire. These instructions must be followed! The manufacturer is not liable for damage
to the hood or fire damage resulting from incompetent maintenance or from non-adherence to
the safety instruction above.
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth.
Then rinse with clean water. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as caustic soda. The cooker
hood finish stays in good condition if it is buffed periodically following the application of wax.
NOTE!
Stainless steel cooker hoods
Do not use scouring pads or other abrasive cleaners on stainless steel cooker hoods. Finish with
a non-abrasive, non-polishing agent and buff the stainless steel in the direction of the grain.
Metal grease filters
Metal grease filters should be cleaned once a month (or when indicated by the filter cleaning indicator
–if present on the model) using a neutral cleaning agent, either by hand or in the dishwasher on a
short, low-temperature program. Place the grease filters with the openings facing downwards in the
dishwasher so the water can drain out of the filter. Aluminium grease filters become dull as a result
of dishwasher cleaning agents. This is normal and does not effect the working.
18
Maintenance

Removing cassette filter
1. Switch off the motor and lighting.
2. Push in the latches and open the panel.
3. Open the filter’s access latch. Support the filter with your hand.
4. Remove the filter from the hood.
Cleaning
The filters can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Allow the filters to drain well before replacing.
The filters can also be cleaned by hand.
Clean the filters in soapy water with washing up liquid and rinse. Allow the filters to drain well. The
underside of the cooker hood can be cleaned with a mild cleaning agent and a damp cloth. Dry off
with a paper towel.
Replacing cassette filter
The filter should be placed with the locking mechanism on the front. Open the filter access latch.
The notches at the front of the filter will then slot in. Hold the access latch in this position when placing
the filters.
1. Slot the notches at the back of the filter in the specially designed opening of the cooker hood.
2. Tilt the filter upwards.
3. Release the filter access hatch. The notches at the back of the filter will extend outwards and
slot into the specially designed openings of the cooker hood.
The filter is now in position again.
4. Press the glass plate firmly in the seal again (you will hear a click).
WARNING!
The glass plate can be removed for cleaning. Two people are required when removing the glass
plate (due to its weight)!
19
Maintenance

Active carbon filters
The regenerable active carbon filter must be washed by hand with neutral cleaning products, or in
the dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65 °C (the washing should be done without any plates,
dishes, cups, etc. in the machine). Do not use washing detergent.
Remove the excess water without damaging the filter, remove the holder and let the filter dry in the
oven for at least 40 minutes at a maximum temperature of 70 °C.
To keep the regenerable carbon filter efficient, this action should be repeated every 2 months or
when indicated by the filter indicator. The filter must be replaced after no more than 3 years, or if it
has been damaged.
CAUTION!
It is important that the grease filters and the regenerable active carbon filter are thoroughly dry
before repositioning.
Replacing the carbon filter
To replace the carbon filter, consult the manual for the recirculation kit.
Filter indication
Saturation of grease and carbon filters
