Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here
you can find tips on how to save even more energy
when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your
appliance properly.

Saving energy

During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient
■
supply of air to enable the extractor hood to work
efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam
■
produced during cooking. Only use intensive mode
when required. The lower the fan speed, the less
energy is consumed.
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select
■
a higher fan speed in good time. If the cooking
steam has already spread around the kitchen, the
extractor hood will need to be operated for longer.
Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require
■
it.
Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
■
Clean and (if required) replace the filter at regular
■
intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the
ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
Put the lid on to reduce cooking steam and
■
condensation.
