and knowledge if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a
safe way and understand the hazards involved
• Activate the hood a few minutes prior to cooking.
• Switch the hood off 10 minutes after cooking is fin-
ished. The delay function is set to 10 minutes. Use
the delay function.
• Avoid drafts under the hood surface.
• When cooking make sure pots are positioned prop-
erly under the hood surface.
• When using induction: adapt the intensity of both
hob and hood to the lowest possible level in order to
avoid excessive creation of damp fumes.
• Attention, certain accessible parts of the hood can
become hot while cooking.
2.3 Precautions not to damage the appliance
• The mounting instructions describe the correct way
of mounting. Carefully read these instructions.
• Check the distance between the cooking surface
and the hood. The minimum and maximum heights
are indicated in the mounting instructions.
• Never use the hood without the fat filters in order to
prevent dirt and fat from further entering the hood,
which will eventually affect the performance and
functioning of the hood.
• Always stay around when you are frying, roasting,
grilling of deep-frying. Overheated oil and fat may-
catch fire and damage the hood.
2.4 Air supply
When using the hood, there must always be a
sufficient, continuous supply of fresh air in the
room. Fresh air can be supplied by opening a
window or outside door slightly, or by install-
ing an inlet grille.
No matter how big the kitchen or the space with the
open kitchen, the amount of air that can be extracted
is limited to the amount of air that can be fed into it.
An insufficient air supply can result in a 50% loss of
efficiency or more.
An insufficient air supply can cause repercussions in
other existing exhaust channels, such as the flue of a
fireplace or other combustion appliances. This caus-
es a risk of poisonous and combustible gases being
drawn back into the living space.
When using the same energy source, other than elec-
tricity, for the hood and devices, the negative pressure
in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (= 0.04 mbar).
This hood is equipped with a connection for a con-
tact window switch. If the hood is to work simultane-
ously with a heating appliance that pulls air from the
room, and if the required supply of fresh air can only
be through an open window, it is possible to connect a
window contact switch (not supplied) to the hood.
This ensures the hood only works if the window is
open. When the window is closed, the fan can not be
turned on. A window contact cable set is available as
an accessory (part number 990.033).
