can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this
manual for guidance. All other servicing should be done
by a qualified technician.
WARNING
WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING
‒Installation work and electrical wiring must be done
by qualified person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards, including fire-
rated construction.
‒Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and
exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of
fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting.
Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s
guideline and safety standards such as those
published by the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA), and the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code
authorities.
‒When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not
damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
‒Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
WARNING
The applicable regulations of the energy supply
companies and the regional construction regulations
must be observed when installing the hood.
WARNING
Risk of fire
Grease deposits in the grease filter can catch fire.
Never work with a naked flame near the appliance (e.g.
flambéing). Install the unit near a heat-producing
appliance for solid fuels (e.g. wood or coal) only if there
is a closed, non-detachable cover. There must be no
flying sparks.
WARNING
Risk of fire
Operating several gas burners at the same time gives
rise to a great deal of heat. The ventilation appliance
may become damaged or catch fire. The ventilation
appliance must only be combined with gas burners that
do not exceed the maximum total output of 61,000 Btu/
hr (18 kW). If 41,000 Btu/hr (12 kW) is exceeded, the
local regulations concerning room ventilation, room
size, and combination with ventilation devices in exhaust
and recirculating operation must be heeded.
WARNING
To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be
sure to duct air outside. Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls, ceilings, attics, crawl spaces or
garages.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, use only metal ductwork.

WARNING
When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode
simultaneously with a different burner which also makes
use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or coal-fired
heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water boilers) care
must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate
supply of fresh air which will be needed by the burner
for combustion.
Safe operation is possible provided that the under
pressure in the room where the burner is installed does
not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).
This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through
non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via
the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical
measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.
WARNING
Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate
air intake so combustion gases are not drawn back into
the room.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no
guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the
combined ventilation system for the entire household
must be taken into consideration. This rule does not
apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as
cooktops and ovens.
CAUTION
For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust
hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
Risk of damage from condensation back flow. Install
exhaust vent at a slight downward slope away from the
appliance (1° slope).
Appliance Handling Safety
Unit is heavy and requires at least two people or proper
equipment to move.
Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges. Use caution
when reaching behind or under appliance.
WARNING
Risk of injury
The appliance may fall from the wall if it is not attached
properly. All fastening components must be fixed firmly
and securely in place.

General notes
9WARNING
Risk of death
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are drawn
back in. The exhaust air must not be conveyed
into a functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue or
into a shaft that is used to ventilate installation
rooms that contain heating appliances. If the
exhaust air is to be conveyed into a non-
functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must
obtain the consent of the heating engineer
responsible.
Exhaust air mode
Note: Ventilation may not exit through an already
operational smoke or exhaust chimney, nor a duct used
for ventilating furnace installation areas.
▯If the ventilation is intended to pass through a
smoke or exhaust that is not in operation, the
responsible area heating inspector must give
approval.
▯If the ventilation passes through an external wall,
use a telescope wall sleeve.
Ventilation line
Note: The appliance manufacturer does not assume any
warranty for complaints attributable to the pipe section.
▯The appliance achieves its optimum performance
with a short, straight exhaust air pipe and as large a
pipe diameter as possible.
▯As a result of long rough exhaust air pipes, many
pipe bends or pipe diameters that are smaller than
6" (150 mm), the optimum extraction performance is
not achieved and fan noise is increased.
▯The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line
must be made of non-combustible material.
▯Use sealing strip for deviating pipe diameters.
▯An inner diameter of 6" (150 mm), but at least 4¾"
(120 mm), is recommended.
NOTICE: Risk of damage from condensation back flow.
Install exhaust vent at a slight downward slope away
from the appliance (1° slope).
