1. Important notes
1.1 For your safety
 Damaged appliances must not be operated.  The appliance must only be connected by an authorised specialist, paying attention to the relevant regulations of the power supply companies and the regional construction regulations. Also observe the assembly instructions!  Connecting cables must not come into contact with hot cooking surfaces.  Do not operate the extractor hood without inserted lamps.  Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.  Hazardous or explosive substances and vapours must not be extracted!  The user is responsible for expert use and the perfect condition of the appliance.  Only ever operate the appliance under supervision.  Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk! Only ever deep-fry under the extractor under constant supervision. Be sure to clean the grease filter on a regular basis and change the activated charcoal filter.  Fire risk! Do not flambé meals under the extractor hood!  Operation of the extractor hood above a hearth for solid fuels, which poses a fire risk (e.g. sparks) is only permitted, if the hearth possesses a closed and fixed lid. The current local regulations must be obeyed. This does not apply to gas hobs and gas cookers.  Hobs may only be used under the extractor hood when pots and pans are placed on them!  When using more than 3 gas-operated rings at the same time, please operate the extractor hood at level 2 or higher. This prevents a buildup of heat in the appliance.  For safety reasons, do not place any heavy objects on the top of the appliance.  Do not clean the appliance with a steam cleaning apparatus or with water pressure because this poses a risk of short-circuits.  Isolate the appliance from the mains during every maintenance operation. To do this, remove the mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse. If the mains plug is not accessible, the appliance must be switched off at fuse point.  Repairs must be carried out by authorised specialists, thus ensuring electrical safety.  No warranty claims can be lodged in the event of damage caused by failure to observe these instructions.  Adequate incoming air must be ensured if a wood, coal, gas or oil heater or an open hearth is operated in the same room as the one in which the hood is installed.  Safe operation is possible whenever the partial vacuum in the place where the firing equipment is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or other technical means.  After a power failure, the extractor will not go on again automatically. You can recommence operation by turning a knob or by pressing any key. Technical modifications reserved.
