Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient.
Here you can find tips on how to save even more
energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose
of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
■
During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient
supply of air to enable the extractor hood to work
efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
■
Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam
produced during cooking. Only use intensive mode
when required. The lower the fan speed, the less
energy is consumed.
■
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select
a higher fan speed in good time. If the cooking
steam has already spread around the kitchen, the
extractor hood will need to be operated for longer.
■
Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require
it.
■
Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
■
Clean and (if required) replace the filter at regular
intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the
ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
■
Put the lid on to reduce cooking steam and
condensation.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.

Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-
functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, obtain the
consent of the heating engineer responsible.
■
If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall,
a telescopic wall box should be used.
