Causes of damage
Caution!
Risk of damage due to corrosion. Always switch on the
appliance while cooking to avoid condensation. Condensate
can produce corrosion damage.
Always replace faulty bulbs to prevent the remaining bulbs from
overloading.
Risk of damage due to ingress of humidity into the electronic
circuitry. Never clean operator controls with a wet cloth.
Surface damage due to incorrect cleaning. Clean stainless
steel surfaces in the direction of the grain only. Do not use any
stainless steel cleaners for operator controls.
Surface damage due to strong or abrasive cleaning agents.
Never use strong and abrasive cleaning agents.
Risk of damage from returning condensate. Install the exhaust
duct in such a way that it falls away from the appliance slightly
(1° slope).
Environmental protection
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
so that the extractor hood can work efficiently and with a low
level of operating noise.
■
Adjust the fan speed to the intensity of the cooking fumes.
Only use intensive mode where this is required. A lower fan
speed means that less energy is consumed.
■
If there are intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan
speed in good time. If cooking fumes have already spread in
the kitchen, the extractor hood must 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.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Operating mode
This appliance can be used in air extraction mode.
Exhaust air mode
Note:
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels
(not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back
into the room).
Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-functioning smoke
or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the heating engineer
responsible.
This appliance is labelled in accordance with
European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used
electrical and electronic appliances (waste
electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The
guideline determines the framework for the return
and recycling of used appliances as applicable
throughout the EU.
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the
grease filters and conveyed to the exterior
by a pipe system.
