2.1 LETHAL RISK, DANGER OF POISONING
Ventilated goods (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal burning heaters, shower heaters, water
heaters) take combustion air from their installation location and discharge the waste
gases through a waste gas system (e.g. flue). When the cooker hood is active, by
nature it removes air from the kitchen and adjacent rooms. Unless adequate fresh air
is provided a vacuum is created and with it a risk of toxic gases being taken back in
the room from the waste flue of any of these units. (Fig. 2)
Fig. 2: Poisoning Danger
Therefore, it is imperative adequate fresh air ingress is confirmed. (Fig. 3)

DANGER! Warning - Choking Hazard
The packaging materials are dangerous for children. Never allow children to play with
packaging materials.
DANGER!
Warning - Death Hazard
Danger to life and danger of poisoning due to reabsorbed combustion gases.
When used in extraction mode (via ducting) you must ensure there is adequate
ventilation for sufficient fresh air. Do not use this hood in extraction mode
simultaneously with devices that discharge toxic gases through flue such as ventilated
gas, oil, wood or coal burning heaters, shower heaters or water heaters, unless you
have provision for fresh inlet air. (Fig. 2)
