Intended use
This extractor hood complies with the
stipulated safety regulations. Improper use
may result in injury or damage.
The extractor hood may be used in the
household only. The manufacturer is not liable
for damage which is caused by improper use or
incorrect operation.
The manufacturer cannot be made
responsible for damage which can be attributed
to non-observance of the safety instructions.
RISK OF INJURY
Do not allow children to play with the
extractor hood! Adults and children must
never operate the appliance unsupervised
– if they are not physically or mentally
capable of doing so,
– or if they do not have the knowledge and
experience to operate the appliance
correctly and safely.
Technical safety
The extractor hood left the factory in perfect
condition. Nevertheless check the appliance for
visible damage before installation. If it is
damaged, do not switch it on!
If the power cord of the extractor hood is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, his customer service or a
similarly qualied person to prevent hazardous
situations.
Only a qualied technician may install
(including electrical connection), service or
repair the extractor hood. Always isolate the
extractor hood by pulling out the mains plug
or switching o the fuse!
 Safety instructions
If the appliance is improperly installed,
serviced or repaired, the user may be placed in
considerable danger for which the
manufacturer is not liable.
Changes to the electrical or mechanical
installation are dangerous and must not be
undertaken! They may also cause the extractor
hood to malfunction.
Simultaneous operation of the extractor
hood with a heating appliance which is
dependent on ambient air
Heating appliances which are dependent
on ambient air, e.g. gas, oil, wood, or solid-fuel
heaters, instantaneous water heaters, hot
water boilers, hobs or ovens, and which draw
combustion air out of the installation room
and whose exhaust gases are conveyed to the
exterior by a ue.
RISK OF POISONING
If the extractor hood is operated at the same
time as a heating appliance which is
dependent on ambient air, there is a risk of
poisoning due to combustion gases being
drawn back in.

6
Safe operation is possible provided the low
pressure in the installation room of the heating
appliance does not exceed 4Pa (0.04mbar).
This can be achieved if the combustion air can
ow through non-closable openings, e.g. in
doors, windows, in conjunction with air
intake/exhaust air wall boxes or by other
technical measures.
Adequate intake air must therefore always
be provided.
An intake/exhaust air wall box alone does not
ensure compliance with the limit value.
NOTE: When making your evaluation, always
consider the entire ventilation system in the
home. Include the advice of a competent
heating engineer when making your
evaluation.
If the extractor hood is used in circulating
air mode only, it can be operated without any
restrictions.
Special information for gas cookers
When installing the extractor hood above
gas hobs, observe the appropriate national
statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany:
Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI).
Observe the currently valid installation
regulations and instructions of the gas
appliance manufacturer.
During installation, ensure that only one side
of the extractor hood is situated directly next to
a high-sided unit or a wall. Otherwise, there is a
risk of heat build-up. The gap between the
extractor hood and the wall or high-sided unit
must be at least 50 mm.
RISK OF BURNS
Do not operate more than 2 gas cooking areas
simultaneously over a period of max.
15 minutes at maximum thermal load. Due to
the eect of the heat there is a risk of burns if
the surfaces of the housing are touched!
Note that one large burner of more than
5 kW (Wok) is equivalent to the power of 2 gas
burners.
The extractor hood may be damaged by
the intense heat.
Never operate a gas cooking area without a
cooking utensil on it. Regulate the ame in
such a way that it does not project over the
cooking utensil.
 Safety instructions

Proper use
Clean the extractor hood thoroughly before
using for the rst time.
Before cleaning and servicing the extractor
hood, isolate it from the power supply by
pulling out the mains plug or switching o the
fuse.
Bulbs (especially halogen bulbs) become
very hot during operation. Even some time
after the appliance has been switched o,
there is still a risk of burns!
Before changing bulbs, isolate the extractor
hood from the power supply and leave the
bulbs to cool down!
Do not operate the extractor hood without
bulbs inserted.
Always switch on the extractor hood if a
hotplate is being used. If the extractor hood is
not switched on, condensation may form. As a
result, the appliance may corrode.
Do not place any
objects on the
extractor hood.
RISK OF FIRE
Do not ambé under the extractor hood or
work with a naked ame. When switched on,
the extractor hood draws ames into the lter.
There is a risk of re due to deposits on the
grease lter!
Do not leave pans, frying pans or deep-fat
fryers unattended if you are cooking food with
oils or fats, e.g. chips. Overheated oils or fats
can easily ignite!
A risk of re can be prevented by cleaning
the grease lters regularly and changing the
activated-carbon lter in good time.
Never operate the extractor hood without
grease lters.
Correct installation
Check the manufacturer’s specications for
the cooker to determine whether an extractor
hood can be operated over it.
If the manufacturer of the cooker has not
specied any signicant safety distances, the
following minimum distances apply
–550 mm between electric hob and the
lower edge of the extractor hood, Fig. 1.
–650 mm between gas hob (upper edge of
pan support) and the lower edge of the
extractor hood, Fig. 1.
If various cookers are used, the greatest
indicated distance applies.
The width of the extractor hood must
correspond to the width of the cooking area.
The extractor hood must not be installed
over a solid fuel heating appliance which may
be a re risk (e.g. ying sparks) unless the
heating appliance has a closed, non-
detachable cover and the country-specic
regulations are observed. This restriction does
not apply to gas cookers and gas hobs.
To avoid damaging the hob, cover it when
installing the extractor hood.

page).
Appliance surfaces
NOTE: Observe the warranty regulations in the
enclosed service booklet.
The appliance surfaces and controls are
scratch-sensitive. Therefore observe the
following cleaning instructions:
– Avoid cleaning the extractor hood with dry
cloths, abrasive sponges, scouring agents,
cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid,
chlorine or any other aggressive substances.
– Clean the appliance surfaces and controls
with a soft, damp cloth, washing-up liquid
or a mild window cleaner only.
– Do not scrape o dried dirt, but moisten with
a damp cloth.
– Clean carefully in the area of the controls to
avoid liquid from getting into the
electronics.
NOTE: Clean the stainless steel surfaces in the
direction of the ground surface only!
Do not use stainless steel cleaner for the
control buttons!
Metal-mesh grease lters
The metal-mesh grease lters absorb the
grease particles from the kitchen fumes.
The lter mats consist of re-proof metal.
RISK OF FIRE
As the lters become more saturated with
greasy residue, the ammability increases. The
function of the extractor hood may also be
impaired.
The risk of re is prevented by cleaning the
metal-mesh grease lters in good time.
When cleaning the grease lters, also
remove grease deposits from the accessible
parts of the housing with a damp cloth.
Cleaning the metal-mesh grease lters ...
Under normal operation (daily 1 to 2 hours),
the metal-mesh grease lters must be cleaned
1x month.
... in the dishwasher
The metal-mesh grease lters can be
cleaned in the dishwasher. Slight
discolouration may occur but this will not
aect the function of the grease lters.
The lters must be placed loosely in the
dishwasher. They must not be wedged in.
NOTE: Do not clean heavily saturated metal-
mesh grease lters together with utensils.
... by hand
When cleaning by hand, soak the grease
lters in a hot detergent solution, brush o the
dirt, rinse thoroughly and leave to dry.
Do not use any aggressive, acidic or alkaline
cleaning agents.
If dirt is particularly stubborn, we
recommend using a special grease solvent
spray. This can be ordered via the Online Shop.
