Installation instructions
14
Incorrect installation is dangerous.
▶
Connect and operate the appliance only in
accordance with the specifications on the
rating plate.
▶
Connect the appliance to a power supply
with alternating current only via a properly
installed socket with earthing.
▶
The protective conductor system of the do-
mestic electrical installation must be prop-
erly installed.
▶
Never equip the appliance with an external
switching device, e.g. a timer or remote
control.
▶
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
regulations.
▶
When installing the appliance, check that
the power cable is not trapped or dam-
aged.
12.6 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.
¡
In order to freely access the appliance for servicing,
select an easy-to-reach installation site.
¡
The surfaces of the appliance are sensitive. Avoid
damaging them during installation.
12.7 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.
12.8 Information on the installation
situation
¡
Install this appliance in a surround.
¡
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.
12.9 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.
Flat ducts
Use flat ducts with an inner cross-section that corres-
ponds to the diameter of the round pipes:
¡
Diameter of 150 mm corresponds to ap-
prox. 177 cm².
¡
Diameter of 120 mm corresponds to ap-
prox. 113 cm².
¡
Use sealing strips for different pipe diameters.
¡
Do not use any flat ducts with sharp bends.
Round pipes
Use round pipes with an inner diameter of 150 mm (re-
commended) or at least 120 mm.
12.10 Instructions for the air extraction
mode
For air extraction mode, a one-way flap should be in-
stalled.
Notes
¡
If a one-way flap is not included with the appliance,
one can be ordered from a specialist retailer.
¡
If the exhaust air is conveyed through the external
wall, a telescopic duct should be used.
