Important safety information
12
Room air-dependent heat-producing
appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-
operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or
water heaters) obtain combustion air from the
room in which they are installed and discharge
the exhaust gases into the open air through an
exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).
In combination with an activated vapour
extractor hood, room air is extracted from the
kitchen and neighbouring rooms - a partial
vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is
supplied. Toxic gases from the chimney or the
extraction shaft are sucked back into the living
space.
■
Adequate incoming air must therefore
always be ensured.
■
An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will
not ensure compliance with the limit.
Safe operation is possible only when the
partial vacuum in the place where the heat-
producing appliance is installed does not
exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be
achieved when 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 by other
technical means.
In any case, consult your responsible Master
Chimney Sweep. He is able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and will
suggest the suitable ventilation measures to
you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour
extractor hood is operated exclusively in the
circulating-air mode.

Warning
Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in. If installing a ventilation system
in a room with a heat-producing appliance
connected to a chimney/flue, the electricity
supply to the hood must be equipped with a
suitable safety switch.
:
Warning
Risk of fire!
Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch
fire. The specified safety distances must be
observed in order to prevent an accumulation
of heat. Observe the specifications for your
cooking appliance. If gas and electric hobs
are operated together, the largest specified
distance applies.
Only one side of the appliance may be
installed directly next to a high-sided unit or a
wall. The distance between the appliance and
wall or high-sided unit must be at least 50
mm.
:
Warning
Risk of injury!
■
Components inside the appliance may have
sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.
Risk of injury!
■
The appliance may fall down if it has not
been properly fastened in place. All
fastening components must be fixed firmly
and securely.
Risk of injury!
■
The appliance is heavy. To move the
appliance, 2 people are required. Use only
suitable tools and equipment.
:
Warning
Risk of electric shock!
Components inside the appliance may have
sharp edges. These may damage the
connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch the
connecting cable during installation.
:
Warning
Risk of electric shock!
It must always be possible to disconnect the
appliance from the electricity supply. The
appliance must only be connected to a
protective contact socket which has been
correctly installed. If the plug is no longer
accessible following installation of the
appliance, or a fixed connection is required,
an all-pole isolating switch must be present on
the installation side with a contact gap of at
least 3 mm. The fixed connection must only be
installed by an electrician.

Warning
Danger of suffocation!
Packaging material is dangerous to children.
Never allow children to play with packaging
material.
