13.4 Secure installation
Follow these safety instructions when in-
stalling the appliance.
WARNING ‒ Risk of poisoning!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being
drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-pro-
ducing 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 dis-
charge the exhaust gases into the open
through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chim-
ney). 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 extrac-
tion 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 appli-
ance is being operated.
▶ It is only possible to safely operate the ap-
pliance 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 com-
bustion 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 in-
coming/exhaust air wall box alone is not
sufficient to ensure compliance with the
limit.
▶ In any case, consult your responsible chim-
ney 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 ap-
pliance is operated exclusively in circulat-
ing-air mode.
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being
drawn back in.
▶ If an extractor hood with an open-flued heat
production source is installed, the power
supply for the extractor hood must be
provided with a suitable safety switch.
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being
drawn back in.
▶ Do not emit the exhaust air into a smoke or
exhaust gas flue that is in operation.
▶ Do not emit the exhaust air into a shaft that
is used to ventilate installation rooms for
heat-producing appliances.
▶ If the exhaust air is to be conveyed into a
smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must obtain
the consent of the heating engineer re-
sponsible.
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 chil-
dren.
▶ Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial.
WARNING ‒ Risk of fire!
The grease deposits in the grease filter may
catch fire.
▶ Never work with naked flames close to the
appliance (e.g. flambéing).
▶ Do not install the appliance near a heat-
producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g.
wood or coal) unless a closed, non-remov-
able cover is present. There must be no fly-
ing sparks.
▶ The specified safety clearances must be
complied with in order to prevent a build-up
of heat.
▶ Observe the specifications for your cooking
appliances. If the installation instructions for
the cooking appliances specify a different
clearance, the larger of the two must al-
ways be provided for. If gas hobs and elec-
tric hobs are operated together, the largest
specified clearance applies.
▶ The appliance must be installed with no
more than one side directly next to a tall
unit, an upper cabinet or a wall. The dis-
tance between the appliance and the tall
cabinet, an upper cabinet or the wall must
be at least 50 mm.
