1 Safety precautions
In accordance with the requirements of IEC 60335-1:
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless supervised or unless they have been given instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
1.1 Before using for the first time
• The appliance must be installed and connected up to the electricity supply
according to the separate installation instructions. The necessary work
should be carried out by a qualified fitter or electrician.
• Dispose of the packaging material in accordance with local regulations.
The appliance corresponds to recognised technology standards
and the relevant safety regulations. Proper use of the appliance is
however essential to avoid damage and accidents. Please
therefore follow the precautions given in these operating
instructions.

1.2 Correct use
• The appliance is designed for use in the home for extracting cooking fumes
and smells from above the cooking surface.
• Any repairs, modifications or manipulations to the appliance, especially
any electrically live parts, should only be carried out by the manufacturer,
its Customer Services or similarly qualified persons. Repairs if carried out
incorrectly may cause serious injury, damage to the appliance and fittings,
as well as affect the functioning of the appliance. If the appliance is not
working properly or in case of a repair order, follow the instructions given
in the Repair service section. Please contact our Customer Services if
necessary.
• Use original spare parts only.
• 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, together with the installation instructions, accompany the appliance.
In this way, the new owner can inform themselves about how to use the
appliance correctly and read the pertinent safety precautions.
1.3 Children in the home
• Packaging material e.g. plastic and polystyrene can be dangerous for
children. Danger of suffocation! Please keep packaging material away from
children.
• The appliance is designed for use by adults who are familiar with these
operating 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 could
hurt themselves.

1.4 Note on use
• If the appliance is visibly damaged, do not use it. Contact our Customer
Services.
• If the appliance is not operating property, disconnect it from the power
supply immediately.
• Caution: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appli-
ances.
• Do not flambé food underneath the appliance. Grease filters if laden with
grease could catch fire.
• If frying on the cooking surface, do not leave the frying appliance
unattended. 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 more easily than clean oil.
• Clean the filters regularly. Failure to do so can increase the fire hazard due
to the build-up of grease in the grease filter.
• Do not operate the individual cooking zones of the cooking surface without
a pan on them or with an empty pan on them so as to avoid damaging the
appliance or the kitchen fittings through a strong build-up of heat. Avoid
open fires with oil, gas, wood and coal fired cookers.
• 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
optimal air extraction.
• Avoid a cross-current of air, which could blow the cooking vapours over
the cooking area.

1 Safety precautions

• With recirculation models, only operate the illumination with the fan on,
otherwise a build-up of heat could damage the appliance.
• If other appliances – fuelled by gas or other fuels – are being used at the
same time, ensure that there is a sufficient 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 operation is only possible providing
a room negative pressure of 4 Pa (0.04 mbar) is not exceeded at the
location of the appliance. Risk of toxic fumes! An adequate flow of fresh air
must be guaranteed e.g. via non-closable openings in doors or windows
and in combination with an air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other
technical means.
• When carrying out maintenance work on the appliance, including replacing
the light bulb, 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).
• When cleaning the appliance make sure no water gets inside the
appliance. 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.

2 Appliance description
The appliance is designed for use in the home for extracting cooking fumes
and smells from above the cooking surface. It can be mounted on the wall or
built in a wall unit. The appliance can be used in extraction or recirculation
mode.
2.1 Extraction model
The integrated fan extracts cooking fumes and smells from above the
cooking surface. The air is cleaned through the grease filter and then fed
through the exhaust air conduit to the outside.
2.2 Recirculation model
Using an activated charcoal filter in the appliance
After being filtered through the grease filters, the cooking fumes and smells
above the cooking surface are passed through an activated charcoal filter.
The cleaned air is then circulated through the grille – at the top of the appli-
ance – and back into the room.
Using an air recycling cartridge (LRC1)
The appliance extracts the cooking fumes and smells from above the cooking
surface through the grease filters, which remove the grease particles. The air
is then blown via a duct through the air recycling cassette. An activated
charcoal filter in the air recycling cassette removes the cooking fumes and
smells. The cleaned air is then circulated through the outlet grille back into
the room.
When the appliance is in use, ensure there is a sufficient supply of
fresh air to replace the air that is being extracted.
The activated charcoal filter is more effective at the lower power
levels.

2.3 Features
• 2 extraction fans
• Illumination
• 1 grease filter (flat fleece)
• 1 activated charcoal filter (not included in scope of delivery)
The extraction fan has 3 power levels.
• 1 = Low, 2 = Medium, 3 = High level.
• Power levels 1 and 2 can be used for longer periods of operation.
• Level 3 (high) is for shorter bursts of intensive extraction of cooking fumes
and smells, e.g. when searing meat. When finished, switch back to level
1 or 2.
