1.5 Intended use of your hood
Intended use
The hood must only be used for the purposes specified below:
The hood is exclusively designed for condensing steam and vapour from combi steamers.
The hood is designed for combi steamers in the following model series: C4 ES 6.10, 10.10, 6.20,
10.20, 20.10, 12.20, 20.20 and C4 EB 6.10, 10.10, 6.20, 10.20, 20.10, 12.20, 20.20. The hood is also
designed for STK C4 ES/EB 6.10/10.10 and STK C4 ES/EB 6.20/10.20.
The hood is intended solely for professional, commercial use.
The ambient temperature must lie between 4°C and 35°C.
The hood does not need to be connected directly to a ventilation system as the exhaust air from the
combi steamer is condensed by a condensation unit and by baffle filters, mist collectors and se-
condary filters (ConvoVent 4: steam separator, ConvoVent 4+: fine particle filter).
The hood is connected to the combi steamer controller to enable communication and relevant control.
In addition, the hood is only being used as intended when the following conditions are met:
To avoid accidents and any damage to the hood, the owner must train staff on a regular basis.
The hood must be operated only by trained staff.
The manufacturer regulations for operation and servicing of the hood must be observed.
Restrictions on use
The following restriction on use must be observed:
The hood improves the environment in the kitchen but is no substitute for an air ventilation system.
The hood must only be operated when all safety devices are fitted and in working order.
The hood must not be used with mobile combi steamers (stand on castors).
Requirements to be met by personnel
The following requirements must be met by personnel:
The hood must only be operated by trained personnel only.
Requirements relating to the operating condition of the condensation hood
The following requirements relating to the operating condition of the hood must be met:
The hood must only be operated when all safety devices are working correctly.
The hood must only be operated when all covers are fitted correctly.
The hood must only be operated when the baffle filters and mist collectors are fitted correctly.
Requirements relating to the operating environment of the condensation hood
The following requirements relating to the operating environment of the condensation hood must be met:
The hood must not be operated if the national and local regulations regarding ventilation and
discharge, or the specific requirements for the relevant cooking equipment, are not complied with.
The hood must not be operated in the vicinity of flammable gases or liquids.
The hood must not be operated in toxic or potentially explosive atmospheres.
The kitchen floor must be kept dry to reduce the risk of accidents.
Cleaning requirements
The following requirements must be met during cleaning:
The combi steamer and the hood must be disconnected from the power supply in order to clean the
hood.
It is only permitted to use the following materials:
- Common household, non-alkaline detergent that is gentle on the skin and is pH-neutral
High-pressure cleaners, sprinklers or water jets must not be used for cleaning.
The hood must not be treated with acids or exposed to acid fumes.

2.3 Summary of hazards
General rules for dealing with hazards and safety precautions
The appliance is designed to protect the user from all hazards that can reasonably be avoided by design
measures.
The actual purpose of the appliance, however, means that there are still residual risks; you must
therefore take precautions to avoid them. A safety device can provide you with a certain degree of
protection against some of these hazards. You must ensure, however, that these safety devices are in
place and in working order.
The nature of these residual risks and what effect they have are described below.
Hazard points
The figure below shows a size 6.10 condensation hood as an example of all condensation hoods:
ConvoVent 4 ConvoVent 4+
Item Name
1 Mounting plate cover
2 Appliance cover
Damaged power cable
The appliance's power cable may become damaged during transit. This poses:
A risk of electric shock from damaged power cable.
Live parts
The appliance contains live parts. This poses:
A risk of electric shock if covers are not in place.
Risk of electric shock caused by a short-circuit when spraying water on the appliance.
Missing equipotential bonding
No equipotential bonding installed. This poses:
A risk of electric shock when the hood is not incorporated into the equipotential bonding of the combi
steamer.
Clogged filters and case components
Sparks can ignite grease if the filters and accessible case parts have not been cleaned adequately. This
poses:
Grease fire hazard due to insufficient cleaning.




2 For your safety
ConvoVent 4 / ConvoVent 4+ 20
Hot steam / vapour
The combi steamer generates hot steam and vapour that escape when the appliance door is opened.
This poses:
A risk of scalding from hot steam when the appliance door is opened. You are protected from hot
steam by the appliance door itself.
Hot components
Touching the baffle filters, mist collectors or inside surfaces directly after opening the appliance door or if
the hood is fitted on the appliance but not yet in operation (no mains connection) poses:
A risk of burns from hot components.
Condensation collection
The hood is fitted on the appliance but not yet in operation. This poses:
A risk of mold formation from condensation collecting inside the appliance.
Overstressing your body
If a single person tries to lift the appliance by himself/herself, the appliance's weight may lead to:
A risk of injury, especially in the area of the torso, from incorrect lifting.
Contact with cleaning agents
Cleaning agents can come into direct contact with your skin and eyes. This poses:
Risk of skin and eye irritation or chemical burns.
Hood falling down
If the hood is not fastened to the combi steamer correctly, the hood may slip and fall down. This poses:
Risk of crushing various parts of the body from the hood falling down.
Combined units falling over
Mounting the hood on top of the combi steamer increases the risk of the units toppling over. This poses:
Risk of crushing various parts of the body from the combined units falling over.
Pinching of hands by various activities
For various actions, such as cleaning the appliance, there is the risk that you will pinch your hand.
Rotating fan
The appliance contains a fan. This poses:
A risk of hand injuries or hair or loose clothing being caught by the rotating fan wheel if the cover is not
fitted properly.
Overhang of the hood
The hood extends beyond the combi steamer. This poses:
Danger of hitting the overhanging hood.
