1.4 Safe use

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of fire! Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch fire.

• Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.
• Clean the grease filters regularly.
• Never work with naked flames close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing).

Do not install the appliance near a solid fuel heating appliance (e.g. wood- or coal-burning) unless the heating appliance has a sealed, non-removable cover. There must be no flying sparks.

Hot oil and fat ignites very quickly.

• Always supervise hot oil and fat.
• Never extinguish burning oil or fat with water. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or something similar and leave to cool down.

When gas burners are in operation without any cookware placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire.

• Only operate the gas burners with cookware on them.

Operating multiple gas hobs at the same time generates a great deal of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire.

• Only operate the gas hobs with cookware on them.
• Select the highest fan setting.
• Never operate two gas hobs simultaneously on the highest flame for longer than 15 minutes. Two gas hobs correspond to one large burner.
• Never operate large burners of more than 5 kW with the highest flame for longer than 15 minutes, e.g. a wok.

Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch fire.

• Clean the grease filters regularly.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of suffocation! Children may put packaging material over their heads or wrap themselves up in it and suffocate.

• Keep packaging material away from children.
• Do not let children play with packaging material.

Children may breathe in or swallow small parts, causing them to suffocate.

• Keep small parts away from children.
• Do not let children play with small parts.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of poisoning! Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney). With the extractor hood switched on, air is extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms. Without an adequate supply of air, the air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.

• Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as a room-air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.
• It is only possible to safely operate the appliance if the pressure in the room in which the heating appliance is installed does not fall below 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means. An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone is not sufficient to ensure compliance with the limit.
• In any case, consult your responsible chimney sweep. They are able to assess the house's entire ventilation setup and will suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.
• Unrestricted operation is possible if the appliance is operated exclusively in circulating-air mode.

Using a gas cooking appliance leads to a build-up of heat, moisture and combustion products in the room where the appliance is installed.

• Switch on the extractor hood when using a gas cooking appliance.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of burns! The accessible parts of the appliance become hot during operation.

• Long, rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe bends or small pipe diameters reduce the suction power and increase the fan noise.
• Use an exhaust air pipe that is made of non-combustible material.
• To prevent condensate from returning, fit the exhaust pipe with a 1° gradient from the appliance.

Instructions for the air extraction mode

For air extraction mode, a one-way flap should be installed.

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.

Installation

Checking the wall

1. Check whether the wall is horizontal and adequately load-bearing. The maximum weight of the appliance is 30 kg.
2. Drill the hole depth in accordance with the length of the screws.
3. Use the enclosed screws and wall plugs. The enclosed screws and wall plugs are suitable for use with solid brickwork. Use suitable fixing material for other structures, e.g. plasterboard, porous concrete, poroton bricks.
4. Install the appliance with a fixing material which is sufficiently stable and has been adjusted accordingly for both the structural conditions and the weight of the appliance.
5. Check the cut-out area for existing cables of other appliances.

Preparing the wall

1. Observe the information on the installation situation. → Page 19
2. Ensure that there are no electrical wires, gas pipes or water pipes in the area where holes are to be drilled.
3. Cover the hob to prevent damage.
4. Determine the position of the extractor hood and lightly mark where the lower edge of the appliance should be on the wall.
5. Determine the centre of the hob.
6. Comply with the safety clearances for the hob.

Installing the appliance

We recommend fitting the extractor hood in such a way that the lower edge of the glass panel is in line with the lower edges of the adjacent wall-hung cabinets.

1. To make the installation easier, apply and secure the packaging section that is used as the template to the line that is marked out.
2. Remove the grease filters. To avoid causing damage, do not bend the grease filters.
3. Attach the appliance.
4. Screw the knurled nuts onto the safety screw by hand and tighten them hand-tight.
5. Insert the glass support in the opening and fold it down as far as it will go.
6. Align the glass panel at an angle of 90° to the appliance.
7. Insert the glass panel in the opening on the appliance and lock it into place.
8. Insert the glass support in the opening on the glass panel and lock it into place.
9. Insert the grease filters.
10. Connect the appliance to the power supply.

Installing the appliance bracket

1. Remove the angle bracket for the flue duct.
2. Align the appliance bracket for the extractor hood and screw it on hand-tight.
3. Use a spirit level to align the appliance bracket horizontally and screw it firmly in place.

Diagrams showing installation of the appliance bracket.

Piping

Note: If you are using an aluminium pipe, smooth the connection area beforehand.

We recommend piping with an exhaust air pipe diameter of 150 mm. If the diameter of the air extraction ducting is less than 150 mm, you need a separately available reduction fitting.

Establishing the exhaust air connection (exhaust pipe, 150 mm diameter)

1. Secure the exhaust pipe to the air pipe connector.
2. Establish the connection to the exhaust air opening.
3. Seal the joints.

Installing the flue duct

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of injury! Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges.

• Wear protective gloves.

⚠️ WARNING – Risk of electric shock! Sharp-edged components inside the appliance may damage the connecting cable.

• Do not kink or trap the connecting cable.

1. To separate the flue ducts, remove the adhesive tape or the flue duct from the protective packaging.
2. Remove any protective foil from both flue ducts.
3. Use the 2 screws to screw the upper flue duct to the sides of the retaining bracket.

4. Note: To prevent scratches, lay soft towels over the edges of the outer flue duct to protect the surface. Place the lower flue duct on the appliance and pull it slightly apart.
5. Put the lower flue duct over the upper flue duct.
6. Carefully remove the towels.
