When the appliance is installed, the mains
plug of the power cord must be freely ac-
cessible. If free access is not possible, an
all-pole isolating switch must be installed in
the permanent electrical installation accord-
ing to the conditions of Overvoltage Cat-
egory III and according to the installation

15.4 General information
Follow these general instructions during the installation.
¡
For the installation, observe the currently valid build-
ing regulations and the regulations of the local elec-
tricity and gas suppliers.
¡
When discharging the exhaust air, the official and
legal regulations, such as the regional building
code., must be observed.

15.5 Instructions for the electrical
connection
In order to safely connect the appliance to the elec-
trical system, follow these instructions.
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 that has been
correctly installed.
▶
The mains plug for the mains power cable must be
easily accessible after the appliance is installed.
▶
If this is not possible, an all-pole isolating switch
must be integrated into the permanent electrical in-
stallation according to the conditions of overvoltage
category III and according to the installation regula-
tions.
▶
The permanent electrical installation must only be
wired by a professional electrician. We recommend
installing a residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB)
in the appliance's power supply circuit.
Sharp-edged components inside the appliance may
damage the connecting cable.
▶
Do not kink or trap the connecting cable.
¡
The connection data can be found on the rating
plate. →
¡
The connecting cable is approx. 1.30 m long.
¡
This appliance complies with the EC interference
suppression regulations.
¡
The appliance corresponds to protection class 1.
You should therefore only use the appliance with a
protective earth connection.
¡
Do not connect the appliance to the power supply
during installation.
¡
Ensure that the protection against contact is guaran-
teed during installation.
15.6 Information on the installation situation
¡
Install this appliance on the kitchen ceiling or a
stable suspended ceiling.
¡
To install additional special accessory parts, ob-
serve the enclosed installation instructions.
¡
The width of the extractor hood must correspond at
least with the width of the hob.
¡
To optimally detect the cooking vapours, install the
appliance in the middle of the hob.
15.7 Instructions for the exhaust air pipe
The appliance manufacturer does not provide any war-
ranty for faults attributable to the pipeline.
¡
Use a short, straight exhaust air pipe with as large a
pipe diameter as possible.
¡
Long, rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe bends or
small pipe diameters reduce the suction power and
increase the fan noise.
¡
Use an exhaust pipe that is made of non-combust-
ible material.
¡
To prevent condensate from returning, fit the ex-
haust pipe with a 1° gradient from the appliance.
