Installation
8.2 Important information befo-
re installing the appliance:
•
Clean the environment thoroughly
before and after installation so that
no dust or construction debris can be
sucked in during initial operation.
•
Check the condition and load-bearing
capacity of the electrical cables.
The installation of the appliance by a
specialist is recommended.
Follow the description of the work steps
in the mounting chapter and all further
instructions.
In the execution with air exhausted out
-
doors, the vapours are extracted via an
air exhaust hose fixed to the connector
ring.
•
The diameter of the exhaust air hose
must conform to that of the connector
ring.
•
The exhaust air hose must not be led
through a shaft together with gas
pipes, hot air pipes etc.
•
Route the exhaust hose as straight as
possible away from the hood.
The maximum permissible bend to the
outside is 120°.
•
If a smoke non-return valve is used or
is planned, check whether it can open
and close freely after the installation of
the exhaust air hose.
8.3 Using the extractor hood as
an exhaust air hood (with air
extracted to outdoors)
If the extractor hood has been fitted at
the factory with a carbon filter, this must
be removed for exhaust air operation.
It is only practicable to use this when
operating your hood in circulation
mode.
8.4 Converting the extractor
hood to a circulation hood
If you wish to use the hood as a circulati-
on hood, you must mount the activated
carbon filter(s) to the fan motor before
using the hood. If not included in the
scope of supply, you must obtain the
carbon filter(s) from the supplier of your
extractor hood.
8.5
Mounting the carbon filter
• Disconnect the appliance from the
power supply.
•
Loosen the screws of the motor unit
and remove it.
•
Screw the activated carbon filters
onto the motor housing (usually
clockwise).
