ing properly or in case a repair is
needed, follow the instructions given in
the 'Service & Support' section. Contact
our Customer Services if necessary.
▪Use original spare parts only.
▪Retain these operating instructions for
future reference.
Note on use
▪If the appliance is visibly damaged, do
not use it. Contact our Customer Ser-
vices.
▪If the appliance is not functioning prop-
erly, disconnect it from the power sup-
ply immediately.
▪Ensure there is adequate ventilation
when the extractor fan is on so as to
avoid creating underpressure in the kit-
chen and to achieve optimal air extrac-
tion.
▪Avoid a cross-current of air, which
could blow the cooking vapours over
the cooking area.
▪If other appliances – fired by gas or
other fuels – are being used at the
same time, ensure that there is a suffi-
cient supply of fresh air. This does not
apply to air recirculation appliances.
▪If other firing systems are being used at
the same time (e.g. wood, gas, oil or
coal fired heating appliances), safe op-
eration is only possible providing a
room negative pressure of 4Pa
(0.04mbar) is not exceeded at the loc-
ation of the appliance. Risk of toxic
fumes! An adequate flow of fresh air
must be guaranteed e.g. via non-clos-
able openings in doors or windows and
in combination with an air-intake/ex-
haust-air wall box or by other technical
means.
▪When cleaning the appliance make
sure no water gets inside it. Use a mod-
erately damp cloth only. 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.
▪Accessible parts may become hot when
used with cooking appliances.
Caution: Burns hazard!
▪Do not leave the appliance unattended
when deep-frying on the cooking sur-
face. The cooking oil in the deep-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 more easily than clean
oil.

▪The appliance and surrounding com-
ponents get hot during operation! Allow
the fan flap, gas deflector and other
components to cool down before touch-
ing them.
▪Under no circumstances place heated
cookware, pots and pans on the operat-
ing and display field.
Caution: Risk to life!
▪Packaging material, e.g. plastic film and
polystyrene, can be dangerous for chil-
dren and animals. Danger of suffoca-
tion! Keep packaging material away
from children and animals.
▪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.
How to avoid damaging the appliance
▪Observe the cleaning intervals. Failure
to do so can increase the fire hazard
due to the build-up of grease in the
metal grease filters.

2 Appliance description
2.1 Introduction
The appliance is designed for use in the home for extracting cooking odours from above
a cooking area and can be used in the extraction or recirculation mode.
Extraction mode Recirculation mode
2.2 Extraction mode
A fan extracts cooking fumes and smells from above the cooking surface. The metal
grease filters clean the extracted air, which is then passed through a connecting pipe fit-
ted with an integrated non-return valve and through the air duct to the outside.
When in use, ensure there is a sufficient supply of fresh air to replace the air that is
being extracted.
2.3 Recirculation box
After being filtered through the metal grease filters, the cooking fumes and smells above
the cooking area are passed through a recirculation box with integrated activated char-
coal filter, the odours are largely removed from the air and it is then circulated back into
the room.
2.4 Features
▪1 extractor fan with 4 power levels:
– Level 1 = low, 2 = medium, 3 = high, and intensive level.
– Power levels 1–3 are suitable for continuous operation; the intensive level is used
for short bursts of intensive extraction of cooking fumes and smells, e.g. when sear-
ing meat. The intensive level runs for a maximum of 6 minutes at a time.
▪1 metal grease filter
▪1 collection tray
▪Optional separate recirculation box with activated charcoal filters, only for recirculation
mode (not included in the scope of delivery, available for order as an accessory)
▪Gas deflector, required for a gas appliance (not included in the scope of delivery,
available for order as an accessory)
