Energy saving tips
33
This cooker hood operates very
efficiently and economically. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
- Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when
cooking. In extraction mode, if there
is insufficient air flow the cooker
hood cannot operate efficiently and
this causes increased operating noise
levels.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
cooker hood power level and
therefore benefit from reduced
energy consumption.

- If strong cooking vapours are
produced during cooking, place the
cookware as close as possible to the
cooker hood.
Cook in covered pots and pans if
possible. This prevents heat
escaping unnecessarily.
If you are cooking with open pots,
put a lid on at an angle. For example,
place a cooking spoon between the
pot and the lid. The deflection of the
cooking vapours in the direction of
the extractor ensures optimum
extraction.
- Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
- Use the Con@ctivity function. The
cooker hood will switch on and off
automatically at the optimum power
level for the cooking you are doing,
which ensures low energy
consumption.
- If you are operating the cooker hood
manually, please note the following:
– Check the power level selected on
the cooker hood. A low power
level is usually sufficient. Only use
the Booster setting when
necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapours are being produced,
switch to a high power level in
good time. This is more efficient
than operating the cooker hood for
longer to try to capture cooking
vapours which have already been
distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the
cooker hood off after use.
If cooking vapours and odours still
need to be removed from the
kitchen air after cooking, use the
run-on function. The fan will switch
off automatically after the selected
run-on time.
