Important information
Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. Valuable raw materials
can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. Before disposing of
your old appliance, render it unusable.
Your received your new appliance in a protective shipping carton.
All packaging materials are environmentally friendly and recyclable.
Please contribute to a better environment by disposing packaging
materials in an environmentally-friendly manner.
Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authority about

The exactractor hood can be used in exhaust air mode.
Always mount the extractor over the centre of the hob.
Minimum distance between electric hob and bottom edge of the
extractor hood: 550mm. (See figures).
Advised: 700 mm
The extractor hood must not be installed over a solid fuel cooker
– a potential fire hazard (e.g. flying sparks)- unless the cooker
features a closed non removable cover and all national regulations
are observed.
This limitation is not valid if you use gas cooking top and gas cooker.
The smaller the gap between the extractor hood and hotplates,
the greater the likelihood that droplets will form on the underside of
the extractor hood.
The appliance is very heavy. The appliance must not be fitted
directly onto plasterboard or similar lightweight materials. To ensure
correct installation, you must use a material which is sufficiently
stable and suitable for both the structural conditions and the weight
of the appliance.
Additional information concerning gas cookers:
When installing gas hotplates, comply with the relevant national
statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany – Technische Regeln
Gasinstallation TRGI).
Always comply with the currently valid regulations and installation
instructions supplied by gas appliance manufacturer.
Only one side of the extractor hood may be installed next to a
high-sided unit or high wall. Gap at least 50 mm.
Minimum distance on gas hotplates between the upper edge of
the trivet and the lower edge of the extractor hood: 650 mm (see
figures).
Advised: 700 mm
This appliance is labelled in accordane with
European Directive 2002/96/EG concerning used
electrical ad electronic appliances (waste
electrical and elettronic equipment-WEEE).
The guideline determines the framework for the
return and recycling of used applainces as
applicable throughout the EU.

Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you can find
tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance.
Saving energy:

During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient supply of air so
that the extractor hood can work efficiently and with a low level
of operating noise.

Adjust the fan speed to the intensity of the cooking fumes. Only
use intensive mode where this is required. A lower fan speed
means that less energy is consumed.

If there are intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan speed in
good time. If cooking fumes have already spread in the kitchen,
the extractor hood must 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.

Prior to installation

For optimum extractor hood efficiency:

Short, smooth air exhaust pipe.

As few bends in the pipes as possible

Diameter of pipe to be as large as possible and no tight bends
in pipe.
If long rough exhaust-air pipes, many pipe bends or smaller
pipe diameters are used, the air extraction rate will no longer
be at an optimum level and there will be an increase in
noise.

Round pipes:
we recommend internal diameter: 150 mm.

Flat duct must have an internal cross section that equates to
that of round pipes.
There should be no sharp bends.
2
Ø 150 mm ca. 177cm

If pipes have different diameters: insert sealing strip.

For exhaust-air mode, ensure that there is an adequate supply
of fresh air.
Connecting a Ø 150 mm exhaust air pipe:

Mount the pipe directly onto the air outlet on the hood. Duct
smaller than 150 mm are not reliable.

With higher distance from the cooking hob, the air delivery
performances are reduced. During the design and layout of the
mounting of the cooker hood, kindly consider also the funnel-
shape of the vapour rising with inclination of ca 10 – 15°.
Preparing the celing:

The ceiling must be flat and horizontal.
Attention: The cooker hood is equipped with standard fixing
material. The person who is mounting the hood should make sure
that fixing elements are suitable for the ceiling that is found. The
manufacturer declines any responsibility for damages caused by a
wrong mounting oder use of unsuitable fixing elements for the ceiling
found.
For the weight kindly look at the M Figures. We reserve the right to
construction changes within the context of technical development.
