General Information
Changing the specification or attempts to modify the product are dangerous. For your own safety spare
parts should be installed by an authorised, qualified specialist. The manufacturer accepts no liability for
damage which occurs as a result of improper installation or failure to observe currently-valid regulations
for this type of application. Please read through the installation instructions carefully prior to commencing
with work.
The cooker hood requires a sufficient flow of inlet air in order to function optimally and ensure maximum
ventilation. If the supply of inlet air is insufficient the speed of the ventilation fan will rise, the flow rate will
drop and more noise will occur.
The air flow of the cooker hood will drop when the filter mats have become saturated and vapours will
not be sufficiently removed.
The cooker hood has been designed to extract vapours generated during the cooking procedure. The
hood is supplied for extraction air operation. If it is not possible to extract the air to the outside, special
accessories are available to convert the hood to recirculating air operation with charcoal filters.
With the help of cooker hoods steam and odours
that arise during the cooking procedure are
extracted out of the kitchen through a special
discharge device. Fresh air is drawn into the
kitchen through an air opening to the outside to
replace the extracted air.
This effect is generated in the suction module in the
hood which extracts the air under the hood and
leads it to the outside through the air hole. The
hood is also fitted with a control panel for the
extraction modes and a functional lighting system
for the hob. If the hood is installed professionally,
regularly maintained and the safety regulations are
closely observed, it will provide long years of
reliable service.
