Safety instructions
Do not use the appliance if damaged.
The appliance may be connected to
the mains by a qualified technician only.
If the connecting cable for this
appliance is damaged, the cable must be
replaced by the manufacturer or his custo-
mer service or a similarly qualified person in
order to prevent serious injury to the user.
Dispose of packaging materials
properly (see Installation instructions).
This extractor hood is designed for
domestic use only.
Light bulbs must always be fitted when
the extractor hood is in use.
Defective bulbs should be replaced
immediately to prevent the remaining bulbs
from overloading.
Never operate the extractor hood
without a grease filter.
Overheated fat or oil can easily catch
fire.
If you are cooking with fat or oil, e.g. chips,
etc., never leave the cooker unattended.
Never allow children to play with the
appliance.
Do not let adults or children operate the
appliance unsupervised:
– if they are mentally or physically unable
to use the appliance safely and correctly,
– if they don't have the knowledge and
experience to use the appliance safely
and correctly.
Do not flambé food directly under the
extractor hood.
!
Risk of grease filter catching fire due
to flames.
The hotplates must always be covered
with a utensil.
Restrictions apply to the use of the
extractor hood over a solid-fuel burner
(coal, wood, etc.). (See Installation
instructions).
Gas hobs / Gas cookers
Do not use all the gas hotplates
simultaneously for a prolonged period
(max. 15 minutes) at maximum thermal
load, otherwise there is a risk of burns if
the housing surfaces are touched or a risk
of damage to the extractor hood. If the
extractor hood is situated over a gas hob,
operate the hood at maximum setting if
three or more gas hotplates are operated
simultaneously.

How to operate the
extractor hood
The most effective method of removing
vapours produced during cooking is to:
K Switch the ventilator ON
as soon as you begin cooking.
K Switch the ventilator OFF
a few minutes after you have finished
cooking.
Switching the ventilator ON:
1. Pull out the vapour extractor tray.
K The ventilator is operating.
2. Select the required ventilator power level.
Operating controls on different models:
Level 1
Level 2
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
Level 3
Level 1
Level 2
Switching the ventilator OFF:
K Push the vapour extractor tray back in
as far as it will go.
Note: The next time that the tray is pulled
out, the ventilator will start up at the power
level to which it was last set.
Light:
OFF
ON
Note: The light can be switched on at any
time, including when the vapour extractor
tray has been pushed back into the hood.
Filters and maintenance
Various types of grease filter can be
used to absorb the grease contained in
the vapours produced during cooking.
The filter frame must be detached before
the grease filter can be renewed.
Detaching and re-attaching the filter
frame:
Detaching the frame:
1. Open the cupboard door.
2. Place your fingers in the recessed grips
in the inspection window, push the filter
frame towards the front and then pull it
all the way out.
2.
1.
Re-attaching the frame:
1. Insert the filter frame into the housing
and push it in as far as it will go.
2. Close the cupboard door.
Metal grease filter:
The filter mat is made of non-combustible
metal.
Caution:
As it becomes more and more saturated
with grease, the filter also becomes
increasingly inflammable. The efficiency of
the extractor hood can also be adversely
affected.
Important:
By cleaning the metal grease filters at
appropriate intervals, the possibility of them
catching fire as a result of a build-up of heat
such as occurs when deep-fat frying or
roasting is taking place, is reduced.
Cleaning the metal filter:
Under normal operating conditions (1 to 2
hours per day), the metal grease filter will
require cleaning after 8 to 10 weeks.
Cleaning the metal grease filters:
K In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily),
the metal grease filter must be cleaned
1 x a month.
K The filters can be cleaned in a dish-
washer. It is however possible that they
will become slightly discoloured.
K The filter must be placed loosely, and
NOT wedged, in the dishwasher.
Important:
Metal filters that are saturated with
grease should not be washed together
with other dishes etc.
