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.

Exhaust air mode
Note:
The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a
functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue or into a shaft
which is used to ventilate installation rooms which
contain heat-producing appliances.
■
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.
Air recirculation
Note:
To bind odours in air recirculation mode, you
must install an activated carbon filter. The different
options for operating the appliance in air recirculation
mode can be found in the brochure. Alternatively, ask
your dealer. The required accessories are available
from specialist retailers, from customer service or from
the Online Shop.

cooking and switch it off again several minutes after you
have finished cooking. This is the most effective way of
removing the kitchen fumes.
