The apparatus must be connected to a TN or IT installation that complies with the regulations or
must be equipped with a differential switch of maximum 0.3A. The maximum value of the fuse of the
grid to which the cooker hood is connected is 20A (EN60898, shutdown curve B or C).
Permitted use
The cooker hood may not be used if the
filters are not attached according to the
regulations.
The cooker hood may not be switched on
unless all the protection devices have been
installed in their proper place.
Never spray water or another liquid onto the
cooker hood.
The cooker hood may not be covered with
combustible or easily flammable materials.
Avoid that children can insert objects into the
lamp holders or filter compartments.
The cooker hood is meant for installation in
residential or related rooms, characterized
by influences according to Article 19 of the
A.R.E.I. and/or HD 384.3.32.
The cooker hood may not be used in:
• Areas with a risk of explosion
• Outdoor areas
• Rooms at ambient temperatures
below 5° C
• Rooms containing highly sensitive
electronic equipment
• Rooms containing corrosive vapours
or gases
• Rooms exposed to powerful shocks
and/or vibrations
Suggested use
To guarantee maximum vapour and odour extraction we recommend that you switch the cooker hood
on a few minutes before you start to cook and to let it run briefly after you finish cooking. Switch-off
delay time, see remote control function on page 7.
You can put the cooker hood in the lowest position if you simmer the food slightly or when prepa-
ring food that vaporizes only marginally. You must use the middle or highest position when baking,
roasting or boiling.
Important
Never fry with open flames (flambé) under the cooker hood!
Sucked in flames can combust the grease located in the stainless-steel filters, which are – inciden-
tally – fireproof. There is an increased risk of fire, especially when deep-frying. Someone must be
present at all times when deep-frying.
Tips to guarantee
optimal extraction
Place your cooking pot in such a manner that the rising vapours
wind up within the suction area of the cooker hood.
Avoid draught above the cooker.
Regardless of the dimensions of your kitchen, please take into
account that the cooker hood can only extract as many cubic
meters of air as can enter the kitchen.
Proper functioning of the cooker hood cannot be expected if
there is no air supply or too little air supply. You can remedy
this by putting a door of window ajar, preferably one that opens
outwards.
Air extraction
Provide sufficient ventilation, especially when there are other devices that simultaneously suck the
air from the room in which the built-in group is installed.
Important: Observe the extraction connection. Don’t reduce the exhaust diameter.
For all types Ø150 unless they have an external motor: Ø150, Ø200 or Ø250
The extracted air must not be led through a discharge pipe that is already being used for extracting
gases or steam originating from devices that do not use electricity.
Place the cooker hood as close as possible to the extractor and use as few bends as possible to
ensure optimum extraction
Never operate the
cooker hood without
filters!
Regularly check the
grease filters whether
they are dirty (fire risk)!
You must take into account the distance between the cooker hood and the cooker: 60cm for an
electric cooker and 70cm for a gas cooker.
In any case, it is strictly forbidden to mount the cooker hood at a distance smaller than 55cm to
exclude the risk of igniting grease filters!
