Operating mode

You can use this appliance in exhaust air or circulating
air mode.

Exhaust air mode

The inducted air is cleaned by the
grease filter and vented out of the
building through a pipe system.
▯
The exhaust must not be vented through a
chimney or shaft that is simultaneously used to
ventilate rooms with fire-powered appliances
installed.
▯
Should the exhaust be vented through a smoke or
exhaust chimney that is not in operation, the
master chimney sweep responsible must give his
approval.
▯
If the exhaust is vented through the outside wall, a
telescopic wall conduit should be used.

Circulating air mode

The inducted air is cleaned by the
grease filters and an activated carbon
filter and then fed back to the kitchen.
Note: In order to suppress odors in circulating air
mode, you must install an activated carbon filter. You
will find the various possibilities for running the device
in circulating air mode in the manual or ask your
specialist dealer. You can obtain the necessary
accessories at a specialist store, through customer
