MANU
AL
VENTILATION CONTROL
In ventilation systems that allow the resident to boost extraction
during cooking, this is done using the adjustment damper of the
hood.
The KTC A cooker hood excludes a fire damper.
USING THE COOKER HOOD
The cooker hood has a sliding glass that can be pulled out of
the cooker hood. It is recommended that the sliding glass be
pushed or pulled from the aluminum strip on its front edge.
Pull the glass out of the cooker hood for maximal extraction
capacity.
Position of the damper
In normal circumstances, the damper must be closed
(the signal light is off), which boosts the extract air flow from
other premises.
The damper must be open
(the signal light is turned on)
when the user wants to increase the extract air flow
from
the cooker hood e.g.
• when the cooker top or the oven is used for cooking or
• the load in the kitchen is exceptional due to the use
of strong detergents, presence of a large number of
people, or similar.
Touch the button on the damper to open it and to start the
timer. The damper will close automatically within 60 minutes.
Cooker hood light
Turn the light on or off by pressing the light switch. The light
is dimmable. Adjust the brightness by pressing the light
switch when the light is turned off until the brightness is
adequate.
Settings button
The settings button is roughly 2 cm to the left from the light
switch.
Front panel buttons
The front panel of the cooker hood has three buttons.
PLEASE NOTE!
• Neglecting the cleaning of the grease filter can
cause a fire hazard.
• The outer surfaces of the hood can become hot
when the cooker or the oven is turned on.
• Flaming is forbidden underneath the cooker hood.

The cooker hood is equipped with a guard function that is
activated when the temperature of the cooker hood exceeds
