Use
NOTE: These operating instructions apply to
several appliance 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 necessary.
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 ventilation
grid close to the hood insures a good quality of
air flow.
Insufficient air flow will impair the extraction
efficiency of your hood immensely.
Insufficient air flow can cause reflux from other
air ducts such as chimneys or combustion
appliances.
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
under constant supervision.
• Under no circumstances is it allowed to flam-
bé under the hood.
• In case of fire always switch off the hood.
• Never extinguish burning fat or oil with wa-
ter. 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.

indicator lamp blinks, the other speed indicator
lamps remain lit up according to the level in use.
After 10 minutes motor and illumination switch off
automatically.
Switch off without delay:
Push button

twice.
Auto-Stop
To avoid that the hood will function during a too
long period, it will switch off automatically after 3
hours (when no changes to the controls have been
made). Only the motor will turn off automatically.
The lighting will stay on.

Three green speed indicator lamps
③
indicate
level 1 to 3, one red speed indicator lamp
④
indicates the level ‘POWER’.
‘POWER’ is only used in case of excessive
formation of smoke, fumes or odours. Taking into
account the large volume of air which is extracted
from the room at this level, it’s use should be
limited.
‘POWER’ automatically reverts to level 3 after 6
minutes.
A self-rectifying thermal contact makes sure that
the motor is switched off when overheated. The
motor will switch on again after is has cooled
down. The cause of the overheating needs to be
determined. This may be, for example, that the
contents of the pan have caught fire, the motor
fan is blocked or an object is (partly) closing off
the exhaust opening
