Important safety information
en
m
Warning – Risk of fire!
▯
Fatty deposits in the grease filter may catch
fire. The specified safety clearances must
be complied with in order to prevent a
build-up of heat. Refer to the information
provided for your cooker. If gas and electric
hobs are being operated together, the
largest specified clearance applies.
Risk of fire!
▯
Grease deposits in the grease filter may
catch fire. Never work with naked flames
close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do
not install the appliance near a heat-
producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g.
wood or coal) unless a closed, non-
removable cover is available. There must be
no flying sparks.
When conveying the exhaust air, official and
legal regulations (e.g. state building
regulations) must be followed.
m
Warning – Risk of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in. The exhaust air must not be
conveyed into a functioning smoke or exhaust
gas flue or into a shaft which is used to
ventilate installation rooms that contain heating
appliances. If the exhaust air is to be conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas
flue, you must obtain the consent of the heating
engineer responsible.
m
Warning – Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if
the appliance is being operated in exhaust air
mode at the same time as room air-dependent
heat-producing appliance is being operated.
Room air-dependent heat-producing
appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-operated
heaters, continuous flow heaters or water
heaters) obtain combustion air from the room
in which they are installed and discharge the
exhaust gases into the open air through an
exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).
In combination with an activated vapour
extractor hood, room air is extracted from the
kitchen and neighbouring rooms - a partial
vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is
supplied. Toxic gases from the chimney or the
extraction shaft are sucked back into the living
space.
▯
Adequate incoming air must therefore
always be ensured.
▯
An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will
not ensure compliance with the limit.
Safe operation is possible only when the partial
vacuum in the place where the heat-producing
appliance is installed does not exceed 4 Pa
(0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when the air
needed for combustion is able to enter through
openings that cannot be sealed, for example in
doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall
boxes or by other technical means.
In any case, consult your responsible Master
Chimney Sweep. He is able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and will
suggest the suitable ventilation measures to
you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour
extractor hood is operated exclusively in the
circulating-air mode.
