Ensure that all specified vents, openings and airspaces
are not blocked.
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of
non-flammable material.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or
vent flue which is in current use for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Neither
should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms
with fireplaces. (See “Exhaust Air Operation” section).
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity
supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
Extension leads are a fire hazard and do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user
and can cause operational faults. Only open the
housing as described in the instructions given in
“Installation” and in the “Cleaning & Maintenance”
sections of this booklet. Under no circumstances should
any other parts of the housing be opened.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY EARTHED. It is
most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly and, where there is any
doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected
by a qualified electrician.
Linärie cannot be held liable for noncompliance with
these instructions, resulting from incorrect or improper
use or operation.
2.3 Exhaust Air Operation
2.4 Correction Use & Operation
WARNING
Danger of poisoning from recirculated exhaust gases! Do not
operate the appliance in extract air mode if it is operated together
with a room air-dependent fireplace and sufficient air circulation is
not guaranteed.
CAUTION
The rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising
from the cooktop. Do not touch the housing or the grease filters
until the rangehood has cooled down.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after
it has been built in.
Reliable and safe operation of this rangehood can only
be assured if it has been connected to the mains
electricity supply.
Before using the appliance, ensure that all packaging
materials are removed from the appliance and make
sure that the connection data on the data plate [voltage
(V) and frequency (Hz)] indicated on the rangehood
correspond to the voltage and frequency of the power
supply in your household. Consult a qualified electrician
if in doubt.
DO NOT use the rangehood without the filters in place.
This way you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting
into the appliance and hindering its smooth operation.
Never use an open flame beneath the rangehood. To
avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an
open flame. When switched on, the rangehood could
draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite,
presenting a fire hazard.
DO NOT store or spray flammable materials in the
appliance or near this appliance while it is in operation
(e.g. aerosols).
The rangehood can become damaged when exposed
to excessive heat.
– Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the
burner.
– Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the
sides of the pan.
– Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a
wok).
Always switch the rangehood on when a cooking zone
is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the
rangehood, which could cause corrosion.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat
fryers etc., do not leave the pans unattended. Never
leave an open grill unattended when grilling.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the
rangehood on fire.
Safe operation is only possible if the negative pressure at
the location of the fireplace does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04
mbar). This can be achieved if the air required for
combustion can flow in through non-closable openings
in doors and windows in conjunction with a supply air /
exhaust air wall box. In any case, have a master chimney
sweep advise you and assess the entire ventilation
system of the house. If necessary, they can tell you the
necessary measure for ventilation.
If the rangehood is used exclusively in recirculation
mode, where the air is directed back into the room in
which it is located, operating a heating appliance
which depends on the room air at the same time is not
hazardous.
Room air-dependent fireplaces such as gas, oil, wood or
coal heaters, boilers or instantaneous water heaters draw
the air from the room and lead it outdoors through an
exhaust pipe or chimney. In extract air mode, air is
extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms.
Without sufficient supply air, negative pressure is created.
The heating appliance will be starved of oxygen, impairing
combustion. Toxic gases from the chimney or exhaust pipe
can be sucked back into the living rooms.
Make sure that sufficient fresh air supply is guaranteed
and that the air can circulate.
A supply air/exhaust air wall box is not sufficient to
ensure compliance with the limit value.
