safety instructions
power supply
The connection is made via a fixed cable with earthing contact plug.
In the case of a required permanent connection, the hood may only be installed by an electrician,
registered at the responsible electricity supply authority.
On the installation side, a disconnecting device (this includes fuses, contactors and circuit breaker
acc. VDE 0730, §7, Part 1) has to be used.
minimum distances
Distance to an electric hob
From the electric cooking area to the lower edge of the hood a
minimum distance of 600mm must be maintained.
Distance to the gas hob
Between gas hobs (upper edge of pot carrier) and lower edge of the
hood a minimum distance of 700mm should comply.
Other notes
Please take care, that hotplates in operation are always covered, so the device will not be damaged
by excessive heat.
When deep-frying under an extractor hood, the appliance used for frying has to be supervised at all
time during operation.
Oils contained in deep fryers may self-ignite due to overheating. Using old and dirty oil can lead to
this even more easily.
We point out that overheating can cause a fire. Furthermore, we point out expressly that flambé
under the hood is not allowed.

For all work on the cooker hood, even when changing the bulb, the hood has to be de-energized (turn
off circuit breaker or remove the screw fuse from the socket). It is also important to follow the filter
change and cleaning intervals.
If ignored, there is an acute fire hazard due to grease deposits!
Energy-saving tips
Preparation, warming and keeping food warm should always be done in pots or pans with closed lids.
The appliance should be switched off immediately after cooking or, if available, the time-delayed
shutdown be used.
The lighting of the appliance should be switched off after the end of cooking.
Pot sizes should be adapted to the diameter of the cooking zones used.
Use the highest motor speed of the unit only at a high concentration of cooking fumes.
To increase the efficiency of the device, regularly clean the grease filters.
Carbon filters (when used in recirculation mode) should be replaced regularly according to the
manufacturer's specifications.

1 –Fixing Brackets
2 –Fixing Brackets cover

Dimension Drawings
Assembly

1. examination
Before starting the actual installation, the device should be checked. In addition to the control of
externally recognizable damage, a function check has to be done. Take out the device from the
packing, get rid of all packing materials and put the device with the back on the floor / table. After
connecting to a power supply, the lighting as well as the function of each stage should be checked.
Please take care that exhaust outlet is open through check.
2. Installation of the hood
Pass the metal ropes through the holes of the fixing covers and mounting brackets (diagram 1).
Strain the clamps on the metal ropes and make a knot (diagram 2, 3, 4,5).
Tighten the clamps on the metal ropes as far as they will go (diagram 6).
Drill 6 holes in the ceiling for M Ø12x60mm anchors..
Raise the mounting brackets to the ceiling. Tighten the wedge anchors (diagram 7,8).
Lift the bracket cover to the joint with the mounting brackets. Secure the bracket cover with 4 M4x12
screws (diagram 9)
Check the reliability of an extracts mounting.
This completes the assembly.
Usage
Inserting and changing the carbon filter
For recirculation mode we recommend the use of a carbon filter,
which frees the cooking fumes from the smell. The carbon filter
consists of two charcoal-filled cassettes, mounted left and right to
the suction opening of the engine. For mounting please check
picture.
To mount the carbon filter, please take the following steps:
1. First remove the metal grease filters
2. Place the charcoal filter on both sides of the motor in front of the
suction openings
3. In the middle of the filter is a receptacle and on the fan a suitable insert
4. If the filter is seated correctly, you can fix it with a small twisting motion
5. Then reinsert the grease filter
The matching carbon filter for this model is called GE15
Metal grease filter
The aforementioned grease filters are in front of the engine and ensure the absorption of greasy
ingredients from the kitchen haze. The cleaning can be done in the dishwasher. It is recommended to
do this all 14 days (at least once a month). Too long cleaning intervals lead to a blockage of the filter

and thus reduced power.
Cleaning in the dishwasher
The grease filters of your hood are dishwasher safe (55 ° C). However, light discoloration of the metal
can arise. These have no influence on the function of the grease filter and are not considered a
reason for complaint. Put the filters loosely in the dishwasher. Do not bend or pinch them. NOTE: Do
not clean very dirty grease filters together with other dishes.
Cleaning by hand
If cleaned manually, first soak the grease filter extensively in hot rinse liquor, then brush well and
above all, rinse well with clean water. After that drain well. Avoid use of aggressive, acidic or alkaline
detergent. For very stubborn dirt you can resort to commercially available degreaser sprays.
