Safety Notes

$

Do not operate damaged appliances.
The appliance must only be connected by an
authorised specialist, paying attention to 
the relevant regulations of the power supply
companies and the regional construction
regulations. 
Observe the assembly instructions!

Connecting cables must not come into contact with
hot cooking surfaces.
Do not operate the extractor hood without inserted
lamps.
Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.
Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours
must not be extracted!
The user is responsible for expert use and the
perfect condition of the appliance.
Only ever operate the appliance under super vision.
Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk! Only
ever deep-fry under the extractor under constant
supervision. Pay attention to cleaning the grease
filter on a regular basis. 
Fire risk! Do not flambé meals under the extractor
hood!
Operation of the extractor hood above a hearth for
solid fuels (coal or wood etc.) is only partly
permitted.
Gas appliances may only be used under the
extractor hood when pots and pans are placed on
them!
Do not operate all hotplates simultaneously over a
prolonged period (max. 15 minutes) at maximum
thermal load, otherwise there is a risk of burns from
touching the housing surfaces or a risk of damaging
the extractor hood. When operating the extractor
hood above a hob, operate the hood at maximum
setting if three or more hotplates are on at the same
time.
The appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirmed persons without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure they
do not play with the appliance.
If the connecting cable for this appliance is
damaged, the cable must be replaced by the
manufacturer or his customer service or a similarly
qualified person in order to prevent serious injury to
the user.
Do not place any heavy objects on the 
appliance.
Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaning
apparatus or with water pressure because this
poses a risk of short-circuits.
Isolate the appliance from the mains during every
maintenance operation. To do this, switch-off the
correspon ding fuse.
Repairs must be carried out by authorised
specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety.
No warranty claims can be lodged in the event of
damage caused by failure to observe these
instructions.

Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a wood,
coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is operated
in the same room as the one in which the hood is
installed.
Safe operation is possible whenever the partial
vacuum in the place where the firing equip ment is
installed does not exceed 4 Pa 
(0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever 
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 other technical means.
Dispose of packaging materials properly (see
Installation instructions).
Never allow children to play with the appliance.
Do not let adults or children operate the appliance
unsupervised:
– if they are mentally or physically unable 

to use the appliance safely and correctly,

– if they don’t have the knowledge and 

experience to use the appliance safely 
and correctly.

– When children become old enough to operate 

the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the 
parents or legal guardians to ensure that they 
are instructed in safe practices by qualified 
persons.

This extractor hood is designed for domestic use
only.
Light bulbs must always be fitted when the extractor
hood is in use.
Defective bulbs should be replaced immediately to
prevent the remaining bulbs from overloading.

Overheated fat or oil can easily catch fire. 
If you are cooking with fat or oil, e.g. chips, etc.,
never leave the cooker unattended.

The slot for the Coanda air flow must be free at all
times.

Technical modifications reserved.
