Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you
E n v i r o n m e n t a l p r o t e c t i o n .
can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the
appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

▯
During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient supply of
air to enable the extractor hood to work efficiently and with
a low level of operating noise.
▯
Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam produced
during cooking. Only use intensive mode when required.
The lower the fan speed, the less energy is consumed.
▯
If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select a
higher fan speed in good time. If the cooking steam has
already spread around the kitchen, the extractor hood will
need to be operated for longer.
▯
Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require it.
▯
Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
▯
Clean and (if required) replace the filter at regular
intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the
ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
▯
Put the lid on to reduce cooking steam and condensation.

O perating modes

Exhaust air mode

O p e r a t i n g m o d e s .

smoke or exhaust gas flue or into a shaft which is used to
ventilate installation rooms which contain heat-producing
appliances.

Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-functioning
smoke or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the
heating engineer responsible.
▯
If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a
telescopic wall box should be used.

Circulating-air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the
grease filters and an activated carbon filter
and conveyed back into the kitchen.
Note: . To bind odours in circulating-air mode, you must install
an activated carbon filter. The different options for operating
the appliance in circulating-air mode can be found in the
