Description of the functions
The cooker hood works
. . . by air extraction:
The air is drawn in, cleaned by a pri-
mary filter and then passed through a
secondary filter before being directed
outside.
The cooker hood is fitted with a non-
return flap .
This flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off. No exchange of
room air and outside air can take
place. When the cooker hood is
switched on the non-return flap opens
for the cooking smells to be blown di-
rectly outside.
. . . by air recirculation:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the primary filter, then the secondary fil-
ter before passing through an active
charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through a vent in the top of the cooker
hood.
Before using the cooker hood for
the first time in recirculation mode,
ensure that the active charcoal filter
is in place. See Section on "Clean-
ing and care".
