Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Valuable
raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old
appliances. Before disposing of your old appliance,
render it unusable.
You received your new appliance in a protective
shipping carton. All packaging materials are
environmentally friendly and recyclable. Please
contribute to a better environment by disposing of
packaging materials in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local
authority about current means of disposal.
The extractor hood can be used in exhaust air or
circulating air mode.
Always mount the extractor hood over the centre of
the hob.
Minimum distance between electric hob and bottom
edge of extractor hood 600 mm, Fig. 1.
The extractor hood must not be installed over a
solid fuel cooker – a potential fire hazard (e.g. flying
sparks) – unless the cooker features a closed, non-
removable cover and all national regulations are
observed.
The smaller the gap between the extractor hood and
hotplates, the greater the likelihood that droplets
will form on the underside of the extractor hood.
Additional information concerning gas cookers:
When installing gas hotplates, comply with the
relevant national statutory regulations (e.g. in
Germany: Technische Regeln Gasinstallation
TRGI).
Always comply with the currently valid regulations
and installation instructions supplied by the gas
appliance manufacturer.
Only one side of the extractor hood may be installed
next to a high-sided unit or high wall. Gap at least
50 mm.
Minimum distance on gas hotplates between the
upper edge of the trivet and lower edge of the
extractor hood: 700 mm, Fig. 1.
