terial out of the reach of children.
Package
Please dispose of all packaging material
with respect for the environment.
This has been carefully selected and
should be recycled to reduce raw mate-
rial consumption and waste.
Please observe local regulations when
disposing of the packaging material.

ance according to the local regulations.
Prior to disposal, the appliance must be
rendered unserviceable by cutting off

1.2 Intended use
If you use the cooker hood in exhaust
mode, make sure that no open fire is
burning before switching on the appli-
ance!
Otherwise massive smoke develop-
ment could occur and toxic combus-
tion gases can be drawn from the
chimney or flue shaft into the living
rooms. This can be life threatening!
!
The appliance is intended for domestic
use. The manufacturer is not responsible
for damage resulting from improper use
or maloperation.
Extractor hoods remove unpleasant
odours and vapours and create a ple-
asant room atmosphere.
Particles of grease, steam and also mois-
ture are absorbed by the grease filter.
A correctly dimensioned extractor hood
creates a pleasant room climate without
producing draughts and ensures a bea-
rable air humidity of 40-60%.
