Important information
Old appliances are not worthless
rubbish. If they are disposed of in an
environment-friendly manner, valuable raw
materials can be recovered for use again.
Before you dispose of an old appliance,
make sure that it has been rendered
inoperative.
Your new appliance was protected on
its way to you by the packaging. None of
the materials cause pollution to the envi-
ronment and all can be recycled for use
again. Please help to protect the
environment and dispose of the packaging
in an environment-friendly manner.
You can obtain information about the best
method disposing of old appliances and
packaging from your dealer or local
municipal council.
The extractor hood can only be used in
exhaust air mode.
Always mount the extractor hood over
the centre of the hob.
Minimum distance between electric
hob and bottom edge of extractor hood:
550 mm, Fig. 1.
Additional notes concerning gas
cookers:
When installing gas hotplates, comply
with the relevant national statutory
regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische
Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI).
The relevant regulations and installation
notes provided by the manufacturer of the
gas cooker must be observed in all cases.
The extractor hood may be installed
next to only one full-height cupboard or
high wall. Gap to be at least 50 mm.
8
During installation observe a minimum
distance of 650 mm above the gas
hotplates.
Gas hotplates may only be used when
cooking utensils have been placed on
them.
Gas hobs / gas cookers:
The heat load of all the hotplates which
is produced during operation must not
exceed 11.3 kW, irrespective of the
installed nominal output.
Exception:
The hotplates may be operated briefly
(max. 15 minutes) at a heat load up to
13.5 kW if at least fan setting 2 has
been permanently switched on.
(Otherwise, there is a risk of burns if the
housing surfaces are touched).
Solid-fuel cookers
The maximum nominal heat loads and
the minimum distance are the same as
for gas cookers.
Installation of the extractor hood over a
solid-fuel burner which could constitute a
potential fire hazard (e.g. due to flying
sparks) is only permitted if the burner is
equipped with an enclosed, non-
removable cover and all country-specific
regulations are observed. This restriction
does not apply to gas cookers and gas
hobs.
The smaller the gap between extractor
hood and hob, the greater the likelihood
that rising steam will cause condensation
to form on the hood.
