The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours which are purified in the grease filter and activated carbon filter and then conveyed back into the kitchen. The grease filter absorbs the grease particles in the kitchen vapours. The activated carbon filter binds the odorous substances. The extractor-hood fan extracts the kitchen vapours and conveys them through the grease filter into the atmosphere. The grease filter absorbs the solid particles in the kitchen vapours. The kitchen is kept almost free of grease and odours. When the extractor hood is operated in exhaustair mode simultaneously with a different burner which also makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by the burner for combustion. Safe operation is possible provided that the underpressure in the room where the burner is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved if combustion air can flow through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors, windows and via the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or by other technical measures, such as reciprocal interlocking, etc. If the air intake is inadequate, there is a risk of poisoning from combustion gases which are drawn back into the room. An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded. Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the combined ventilation system for the entire household must be taken into consideration. This rule does not apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as hobs and ovens. Unrestricted operation is possible if the extractor hood is used in recirculating mode ­ with activated carbon filter. If no activated carbon filter is installed, it is not possible to bind the odorous substances in the cooking vapours. 4 Coanda effect · · · You do not need to activate the Coanda effect. The Coanda air flow is always active at every fan level. Cooking vapours are extracted particularly well at the front of the cooking field. The Coanda effect may allow you to operate the extractor hood at a lower, quieter level than you were previously accustomed to. The Coanda air flow exits the top of the extractor hood's front panel. Do not place any objects on the extractor hood: these may disrupt the Coanda effect. 5 Operating for the First Time The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance.

The filter mats are made from non-combustible metal. Caution: As the filter becomes more and more saturated with grease, not only does the risk of it catching fire increase but 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. Removing and inserting the metal grease filters: IMPORTANT: The lighting must be switched OFF and cool. 1 Press the catch on the grease filters inwards and fold the filters down. At the same time take hold of the underside of the grease filters with your other hand. Saturation indicator: F The grease filter saturation display F flashes after an operating time of 30 hours to you indicate to you that you should clean the grease filter. The grease filters can of course be cleaned at any time, even if the grease filter saturation display has not started to flash. 2 3 4 Clean the filters. Insert the clean filters back into the hood. Cancel the F in the display. ­ Press the button F. Cleaning the metal grease filters: · · · In normal operation (1 to 2 hours daily), the metal grease filter must be cleaned 1 x a month. The filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher. It is however possible that they will become slightly discoloured. 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. · When cleaning the filters by hand, soak them in hot soapy water first of all. Do not use aggressive, acidic or caustic cleaners. Then brush the filters clean, rinse them thoroughly and leave the water to drain off. 10 Activated carbon filter For neutralizing odours in recirculating mode. Caution: As the filter becomes more and more saturated with grease, there is an increased risk of fire and the function of the extractor hood may be impaired. Important: Change the activated carbon filter promptly to prevent the risk of fire from the accumulation of heat when deep-fat frying or roasting. Installation and removal: IMPORTANT: The lighting must be switched OFF and cool.. 1 2 Remove the metal-mesh filters (see "Removing and inserting the metal-mesh grease filters").
