Installation
• The cooker hood must be installed in
accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements must
be followed.
• All installation work must be carried
out by a competent person or qualified
electrician.
• When installing the cooker hood,
make sure that the following
recommended distances between the top
of cooker and the lowest part of the
cooker hood are observed:
→Gas cookers: 65cm
→Electric cookers: 65cm
→Coal or oil cookers: 80cm
• Do not install above a cooker with a
high level grill.
• Make sure the ducting has no bends
sharper than 90 degrees as this will
reduce the efficiency of the cooker
hood.
• Pay attention to the sharp edges
inside the cooker hood during
installation.
Electrical safety
• Regularly check the power cord for
damage. If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• The appliance must be placed in
such a way, that the power supply is
accessible at all times.
• Before connecting the appliance to
the power supply, check that the power
supply voltage and current rating
corresponds with the power supply
details shown on the appliance rating
label.
• Never use a damaged appliance!
Disconnect the appliance from the wall
outlet and contact your supplier if it is
damaged.
• Danger of electric shock! Do not
attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
In case of malfunction, repairs are to be
conducted by qualified personnel only.

• To avoid damaging the cord, do not
squeeze, bend or chafe it on sharp
edges. Keep it away from hot surfaces
and open flames as well.
• Lay out the cord in such a way that
no unintentional pulling or tripping over
it is possible.
• Do not open the appliance casing
under any circumstances.
Do not insert any foreign objects into
the inside of the casing.
• Never use accessories which are not
recommended by the manufacturer.
They could pose a safety risk to the user
and might damage the appliance. Only
use original parts and accessories.
• Keep the appliance away from any
hot surfaces and open flames. Always
operate the appliance on a level, stable,
clean and dry surface. Protect the
appliance against heat, dust, direct
sunlight, moisture, dripping and
splashing water.
• Do not place heavy objects on top
of the appliance. Do not place objects
with open flames, e.g. candles, on top of
or beside the appliance. Do not place
objects filled with water, e.g. vases on
or near the appliance.
• This appliance is not intended for
use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory, or mental
capabilities, or by those who lack
experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given super vision and
instruction concerning the use of the
appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
Gas safety
• Always put lids on pots and pans
when cooking on a gas cooker.
Operation
Danger of fire!
• Do not flambé under the
cooker hood.
• Do not leave frying pans
unattended during use because
overheated fats or oils might
catch fire.
• Never leave naked flames
under the cooker hood.
• Only fry underneath the
cooker hood when you are in the
kitchen.
• Do not use the cooker hood
without the grease filters, or if
the filters are excessively
greasy!
Caution! Accessible parts may
become hot when used with
cooking appliances.
Exhaust operation
Danger!
• During exhaust operation, the
cooker hood removes air from a room.
If other fire sources that require the
surrounding air for combustion are
being operated in the same room, (e.g.
gas, oil or coal heaters), the oxygen they
require is taken away. Thus flames
could be suffocated and gas could leak
out or the fumes could be drawn back
into the room.
• In order to guarantee a safe
operation, there should be non- closable
openings in doors, windows or in an air
intake wall box to ensure a fresh supply
of combustion air. This will prevent the
combustion fumes from being drawn
back into the room.
• When assessing the measures
necessary, always take the entire
ventilation system of the house into
consideration. In case of doubt, ask your
local chimney sweeper for help.
• Never secure the cooker hood to a
ventilation duct, or a room or exhaust
gas chimney! Do not let the air that is
removed from the room be drawn into a
duct where warm air is circulating. The
extracted air should only be drawn
outdoors through a separate ventilating
duct that is only for the extractor hood.
• When in extraction mode, air in the
room is being removed by the cooker
hood. Please make sure that proper
ventilation measures are being
observed. The cooker hood removes
odours from room but not steam.
• 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 (not applicable to

appliances that only discharge the air
back into the room).
• The air must not be discharged into a
flue that is used for removing fumes
from appliances burning gas or other
fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the
room).
Cleaning
• There is a fire risk if cleaning is not
carried out in accordance with the
instructions.
• Pay attention to the sharp edges
inside the cooker hood, especially
during cleaning.
• Always disc onnec t t he power
supply prior to c leaning the cooker
hood. If the switched fused connection
unit is difficult to reach, shut off the
power supply by using the
corresponding circuit breaker at the
distribution board.
• Keep the cooker hood clean. Fat
deposits could catch on fire when
exposed to high temperatures.
3. INTENDED USE
• Your cooker hood can only be
operated in recirculated-air operation.
• Recirculated - air: Kitchen fumes are
removed and af ter purification are fed
back into the room through the upper air
outlet openings. The purification takes
place via the grease filters and the
charcoal filter
