5 Safety instructions regarding installation, operation, cleaning and maintenance
6
DANGER Danger due to fire transmis-
sion:
if an incorrect connection duct is connected to the
housing. Always use the correct duct material for
the respective housing.
if incorrect ceiling compound is used for exhaust
air systems with an intermediate ceiling (PAM-
GLOBAL RML or ceiling barrier system). Ensure
that the gap remaining between the main duct
and wall or ceiling is fully sealed with non-flam-
mable materials resistant to deformation, such as
concrete, cement mortar or plaster.
if the ventilation connection between the metal
exhaust socket and the flexible aluminium duct
(by means of cold-shrink tape) is not properly ex-
ecuted inside the shaft.
if, outside the shaft, the metal exhaust socket is
incorrectly connected to the folded spiral-seams
connection duct. 3 steel blind rivets are pre-
scribed for the connection with the connection
socket. These must not impair the shutter func-
tion. Before commissioning, ensure that the shut-
off shutter moves with ease.
if the tab of the fire protection shut-off device is
not or not correctly screwed to the wall or the wall
board.
if the metal shut-off shutter is not correctly inser-
ted and screwed down in the exhaust socket.
During installation, it is essential that the shut-off
shutter is correctly positioned and screwed down.
The soldered strut must be correctly inserted and
the shutter must move with ease.
DANGER Risk of injury in case of dam-
aged unit.
Switch the unit off immediately if you discover
damage or faults that could endanger persons or
property.
Prevent from being switched back on until fully
repaired.
WARNING Risk to health if filters are not
replaced or if there are no air filters.
Heavily soiled or moist air filters can accumulate
harmful substances (mould, germs, etc.). This
may also happen if the unit is shut down for an
extended period. If the air filter is missing, the
unit and air ducts become soiled.
Never operate the unit without air filters.
Only use original filters.
Regularly change air filter when a filter change is
indicated (LED or TimeStrip).
If the unit has not been used for a long time, al-
ways replace the air filters.
WARNING Risk of injury when working at
heights.
Use appropriate climbing aids (ladders).
Stability should be ensured, if necessary have
the ladders steadied by a 2nd person.
Ensure that you are standing securely and can-
not lose your balance and that there is no one
under the unit.
WARNING Risk of injury and risk to
health from parts which may affect the ventil-
ation system which are added or modified at a
later date.
Parts (range hood, air-ventilated fireplace etc.)
which are added or modified at a later date may
result in health risks and operation which is not
permitted. Parts may only be added or modified
at a later date if system compatibility is estab-
lished/ensured by a planning office. If using an
exhaust air range hood or air-ventilated fireplace,
this must be accepted by a regional master chim-
ney sweep.
WARNING Risk of injury and health risk
in the event of changes or modifications or if
components which are not permitted are
used.
The unit may only be operated with original com-
ponents. Changes and modifications to the units
are not permitted and release the manufacturer
from any guarantee obligations and liability,
e. g.
if the housing is drilled at a point which is not
permitted
.
CAUTION Risk to health if unit is not cor-
rectly cleaned.
Clean the unit regularly, at least every 2 years.
This is the only way of ensuring that the unit is
running hygienically.
CAUTION Exercise caution when hand-
ling packaging materials.
Observe applicable safety and accident preven-
tion requirements.
Store packaging material out of the reach of chil-
dren (risk of suffocation).
