Correct use
䡲The appliance should only be used together with a suitable comfort venti-
lation system from Zehnder Comfosystems. Other comfort ventilation appli-
ances or external blowers are not equipped with the necessary safety
features. Please follow the operating instructions and safety precautions
recommended by Zehnder Comfosystems.
䡲The appliance is designed for use in the home for extracting cooking va-
pours from above the cooking area
䡲Any repairs, modifications or manipulations to the appliance, especially
any electrical parts, should only be carried out by the manufacturer, its Cus-
tomer Services or similarly qualified persons. Repairs if carried out incor-
rectly may cause serious injury, damage to the appliance and fittings, as
well as affect the functioning of the appliance. If the appliance is not work-
ing properly or in case of a repair order, follow the instructions given in the
'Repair service' section. Please contact Customer Services if necessary.
䡲Use original spare parts only.
䡲Retain these operating instructions for future reference. If you sell or pass
the appliance on to a third party, please ensure these operating instruc-
tions accompany the appliance, together with the instructions on installa-
tion. In this way, the new owner can inform themselves about how to use
the appliance correctly and read the pertinent safety precautions.
Children in the home
䡲Packaging material e.g. plastic and polystyrene can be dangerous for chil-
dren. Danger of suffocation! Please keep packaging material away from
children.
䡲The appliance is designed for use by adults who are familiar with these op-
erating instructions. Children are often unable to recognise the danger of
electrical appliances. Ensure proper supervision and do not allow children
to play with the appliance – there is a danger that children can hurt
themselves.

Note on use
䡲If the appliance is visibly damaged, do not use it. Contact our Customer
Services.
䡲If the appliance is not operating properly, disconnect it from the electricity
supply immediately.
䡲Caution: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking
appliances.
䡲Do not flambé food underneath the hood as the grease filters, if laden with
grease, could catch fire.
䡲If frying on the cooking surface, do not leave the frying appliance unattend-
ed. The cooking oil in the frying appliance could overheat and catch fire.
Constantly monitor the temperature of the cooking oil, keeping it below the
temperature at which it can catch fire. Change the cooking oil regularly –
dirty oil catches fire easier than clean oil.
䡲Clean the filters regularly. Failure to do so, can increase the fire hazard due
to the build-up of grease in the grease filter.
䡲To avoid damage to the appliance or the kitchen fittings through the build-
up of heat, the individual cooking zones of the cooking surface should only
be operated with a full pan etc., on the top. Avoid open fires with oil, gas,
wood and coal fired cookers.
䡲Ensure there is adequate ventilation when the extraction fan is on so as to
avoid creating a disturbing underpressure in the kitchen and to achieve op-
timal air extraction. Pay attention also to the information in the operating
instructions for your Comfort ventilation system.
䡲Avoid cross-currents of air which could blow the cooking fumes and vapour
over the cooking area.

… Safety precautions
7
䡲With the simultaneous operation of firing (e.g. wood, gas, oil or coal-fired
heating systems), safe operation is only possible providing a room nega-
tive pressure of 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) is not exceeded at the location of the ap-
pliance. Risk of toxic fumes! An adequate flow of fresh air must be
guaranteed. Pay attention also to the information in the operating instruc-
tions for your Comfort ventilation system.
䡲When carrying out maintenance work on the appliance, including replacing
light bulbs, cut off the electricity supply to the appliance (remove the screw
fuse from the holder or switch the circuit breaker off, or disconnect from
the mains supply).
䡲When cleaning the appliance make sure no water gets inside the appli-
ance. Use a moderately damp cloth. Do not spray the inside or outside of
the appliance with water. Do not use a steam cleaner. If water gets inside
the appliance, it can cause damage.

Appliance description
The appliance is designed for use in the home for extracting cooking vapours
from above the cooking area. The combi filters and metal grease filters clean
the extracted air. The grease particles in the cooking vapour are trapped very
efficiently in the combi filters and metal grease filters. The heater exchanger
in the comfort ventilation system transfers energy from the warm kitchen air
to the replacement air before being vented to the outside.
The appliance is solely for extracting air in combination with a comfort venti-
lation system.
