Use
NOTE: These operating instructions apply to
several appliances models. It is possible that
individual features are described which do not
apply to your appliance.
Air supply
When using a hood sufficient air flow is neces-
sary. However large your kitchen may be, there is
only so much air available in that space. Opening
a door or window or the installation of a ventila-
tion grid close to the hood insures a good quality
of air flow.
Insufficient air flow will impair the extraction ef-
ficiency of your hood immensely.
Insufficient air flow can cause reflux from other
air ducts such as chimneys or combustion appli-
ances.
When using a cooker hood and appliances using
energy other than electrical in the same space,
the pressure in the room may not surpass 4 Pa (=
0.04mBar).
Safety
• Deep frying under the hood is only allowed un-
der constant supervision.
• Under no circumstances is it allowed to flambé
under the hood.
• In case of fire always switch off the hood.
• Never extinguish burning fat or oil with water.
Cover the pot with a well fitting lid or a burn-
blanket.
Advice
For maximum efficiency please follow this advice:
• When cooking make sure pots are positioned
properly under the hood surface.
• Activate the hood a few minutes prior to cook-
ing.
• Switch the hood off 10 minutes after cooking is
finished (use delay function when present).
• Avoid drafts under the hood surface.
• When using induction: adapt the intensity of
both hob and hood to the lowest possible level
in order to avoid excessive creation of damp
fumes.

‘POWER’ is only used in case of excessive forma-

count the large volume of air which is extracted
from the room at this level, it’s use should be lim-
ited.
‘POWER’ automatically reverts to level 3 after 6
minutes.
