VENTILATION CONTROL
Apartment-specific ventilation units allows residents to
adjust the ventilation eciency.Ventilation is controlled
based on the need e.g. through the cooker hood,
ventilation control panel, or a separate control centre.
It is recommended that ventilation be left turned on
during long holidays also. This keeps the indoor air
fresh and prevents humidity from condensing in the
ventilation ducts and structures. It also reduces the risk
of moisture damage.
USING THE UNIT
Cooker hood damper control panel
Rotary damper.
When turned to the right, the damper is in the open
position.
When turned to the left, the damper is in the closed
position: In normal circumstances, the damper must
be closed,
which boosts the extract air flow from other premises.
Damper open
• when the cooker top or the oven is used for
cooking or
• when the load in the kitchen is exceptional e.g. due
to the use of strong detergents or the presence of
a large number of people.
Front panel
1. Away mode (position 1).
The ventilation eciency can be temporarily
reduced when the apartment is unoccupied.
2. Normal mode (position 2 or 3)
Ventilation must be continuous, i.e. the air inside
the building must be replaced at least once every
two hours.
3. Boost mode (positions 3-4)
Cooking, sauna, bathing, drying of clothes,
excessive heat, and other similar situations can
require that ventilation be increased from the
standard setting. In such a situation, ventilation
must be increased. This is done by boosting the
ventilation either in general or space-specifically.
For example, the damper of the cooker hood is
kept open during cooking but is closed or in the
minimum position at other times.

WARNING
If the ventilation of the apartment
is turned o, the entry of fresh
replacement air into the apartment
and the extraction of used air
from the apartment are prevented.
Impurities, such as carbon dioxide,
humidity, smells, formaldehyde,
dust, and radon, which come from
people, structures, and the soil will
quickly contaminate the room air and
are harmful to the health of people.
Excessive humidity may damage
the structures of the building and
result in mould and fungal growth.
For this reason, building regulations
require that ventilation be turned on
at all times and that its eciency is
adjusted based on the needs of the
user.
CAUTION
• Neglecting the cleaning of the
grease filter can cause a fire
hazard.
• The outer surfaces of the hood
can become hot when the cooker
or the oven is turned on.
• Flaming is forbidden underneath
the cooker hood.
• Always follow the instructions
provided on adjusting the
eciency of ventilation.
• Enable a sucient supply air flow
into the room if the cooker hood
and non-electric devices are
used simultaneously.

CAUTION
The minimum distance of the
bottom edge of the grease filter to
an electric cooker is 500 mm, and
to a gas cooker 650 mm.
CAUTION
• The cooker hood must not be
connected to a flue that is used for
removing combustion gases (e.g. from
a wood- or gas-burning fireplace,
cooker, or stove).
• The cooker hood must not be
fastened through the side panels to
the cabinets.
• Fans that are controlled through the
cooker hood must have an engine
cover and their maximum power must
not exceed 340 W.
• Regulations on leading extraction air
outdoors must be observed.
INSTALLATION
Use the mounting accessories included in the package
to fasten the cooker hood in place.
1. Shorten the extract air duct to be connected to the
hood (125 mm spiral duct) to the correct length.
2. Where required, install a Vallox cover strip, for
instance, (2142400 cover strip 500 or 2142500
cover strip 600) to cover the opening in the rear
wall.
3. Lift the hood so that it is in contact with the duct.
4. Fasten the cooker hood with the mounting
brackets or by other means, so that the hood is
firmly in place and cannot move (figures 1, 2 and
3). The mounting screws included in the accessory
bag are suited to walls made of wood, chipboard,
cement or stone. Use appropriate mounting
devices for other materials.
5. Check the tightness of the extract air duct system.
6. Plug the cooker hood into the mains. Ensure that
the plug can be unplugged, where required.
