Owner Manual Extractor hood

Operating modes

Exhaust air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.

Note: The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a functioning 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 nonfunctioning 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 brochure. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required accessories are available from specialist retailers, from customer service or from the Online Shop.

Operating the appliance

These instructions apply to several appliance variants. It is possible that individual features are described which do not apply to your appliance.

Note: Switch on the extractor hood when you start cooking and switch it off again several minutes after you have finished cooking. This is the most effective way of removing the kitchen fumes.

Installation

Preparing for installation

Caution! Ensure that there are no electrical wires, gas pipes or water pipes in the area where holes are to be drilled.

If the extractor hood is to be operated in exhaust-air mode, a flue duct must be fitted.

If the extractor hood is to be operated in air-recirculation mode, an optional accessory must be fitted. To do this, refer to the installation instructions provided. The flue duct does not need to be fitted for air-recirculation mode.

1. Determine where the extractor hood should be positioned and lightly mark where the lower edge of the appliance should be on the wall. Determine where the middle should be based on the hob.
   Note: We recommend fitting the extractor hood such that the lower edge of the glass screen is in line with the lower edges of the adjacent wall-hung cabinets. Make sure that the specified safety clearances from the hob are complied with.
   
2. Place the template against the line drawn on the wall and fasten it in place. Mark where the screws should be inserted.
   To fit the flue duct, the template must be cut along the marked cut line.
3. Drill 8 mm diameter holes to a depth of 80 mm for fastening the appliance, remove the template and press in the wall plugs flush with the wall.

Fitting with a flue duct

Fitting without a flue duct

Installation

Screw in the mounting supports for the extractor hood until they are hand-tight, use a spirit level to level the appliance and then screw the mounting supports in fully.

Wall-mounting the appliance and levelling it

1. First remove the protective film from the back of the appliance and, following installation, remove the rest of the film.
2. When mounting the appliance, ensure that it engages properly with the mounting supports.
3. If required, the appliance can be moved to the right or to the left.
4. Firmly tighten the screws for the mounting supports.
   Hold the bracket firmly when doing so. A
   
5. If no duct is to be fitted, screw in the two locking screws without the bracket. B

Connecting the pipes

If the extractor hood is to be operated in exhaust-air mode, the pipes must be connected. If the extractor hood is to be operated in air-recirculation mode, an optional accessory must be fitted. To do this, refer to the installation instructions provided.

Note: If an aluminium pipe is being used, smooth the connection area beforehand.

Exhaust air pipe, dia. 150 mm (recommended size)

Fit the exhaust air pipe directly to the air-pipe connector and seal the joint.

Exhaust air pipe, dia. 120 mm

1. Fit the reducing connector directly to the air-pipe connector.
2. Attach the exhaust air pipe to the reducing connector.
3. Use suitable means to seal both joints.

Attaching the flue duct

If the extractor hood is to be operated in exhaust-air mode, a flue duct must be fitted.

The flue duct does not need to be fitted for airrecirculation mode.

Warning - Risk of injury! From sharp edges during installation. Always wear protective gloves while installing the appliance.

Warning - Risk of electric shock! Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. These may damage the connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch the connecting cable during installation.

1. Separate the flue duct sections by removing the adhesive tape.
2. Remove the pieces of protective film from both flue duct sections.
3. Push one flue duct section into the other.
   Notes
   To prevent scratches, lay paper over the edges of the outer flue duct section to protect the surface.
   The slots of the inner flue duct section point downwards.
4. Place flue ducts sections on the appliance.
5. Slide the inner flue duct section upwards, attach it to the left and right sides of the retaining bracket, and then slide it down to engage it. A
6. Screw the flue duct section to the sides of the retaining bracket using two screws. B
   
7. Clip the lower flue duct section in at the retaining bracket. The connection cable must not be damaged. C

Note: If an air-recirculation optional accessory has been fitted and the extractor hood is to be operated without a flue duct, the cable must be wound onto the connector.

Cleaning and maintenance

Warning - Risk of burns! The appliance becomes hot during operation. Allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.

Warning - Risk of electric shock! Penetrating moisture may result in an electric shock. Clean the appliance using a damp cloth only. Before cleaning, pull out the mains plug or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box.

Cleaning the metal mesh grease filters

These instructions apply to several appliance variants. It is possible that individual features are described which do not apply to your appliance.

Warning - Risk of fire! Fatty deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Regularly clean the grease filter. Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.

Notes

• Do not use aggressive, acidic or alkaline cleaning products.
• We recommend cleaning the grease filters every 2 months.
• When cleaning the metal grease filters, also clean the metal grease filter holder in the appliance using a damp cloth.
