6.3.3 Recirculation when using the cooktop
extractor as a recirculation system
In the case of recirculation systems there must be a
return flow aperture in the kitchen units:
> 500 cm² (per air cleaning box) in combination with
cooktops PKFI11, PKI11, PKIW1, PKC32, PKC3B,
PKCH2 and PKT11
> 1000 cm² (per air cleaning box) in combination with
gas cooktop PKG11
INFO If several extractor systems are operated in
recirculation mode, the return flow aperture
for each air cleaning box must be calculated
correspondingly.
Example:
2 recirculation systems = 2 x (> 500 cm²) or
2 x (> 1,000 cm²) in the case of gas appliances
For recirculation, the necessary return flow aperture can
be created using a shortened plinth. A slatted plinth with
at least the minimum opening cross-section can also be
used.
Ensure that the return flow aperture is large enough.

6.10 Connecting external switch
contacts
INFO The Home In and Home Out communication
connections must only be connected by a
certified specialist. The specialist also assumes
responsibility for the proper installation and
commissioning.
When using Home In and Home Out, you will require the
relevant documents for the external switch devices in
order to ensure safe device connection and operation.
The following switch contacts can be used:
Contact Function Connection
Home In Cooktop extractor on/off connection
for external switch contact (contact
closed: cooktop extractor on)
24V DC
100 mA
Home Out Electrically isolated contact for
controlling external installations
depending on the operating
status of the cooktop extractor
(cooktop extractor on: contact closed)
maximum
250 VAC
/ 30 VDC,
2,5A
Tab. 6.5 Switch contacts
INFO The Home In contact can be used for external
safety devices (e.g. window contact switches). If
the switch is open, the cooktop extractor is out of
operation.
Make sure that the universal control unit is
disconnected from the power supply.
PKAS and PKASAB preparation
INFO To ensure that the surface of the device does
not get scratched when the cooktop extractor
system is rotated, a surface must be used that will
protect the device (e.g. cardboard).
Place a soft layer on the surface.
Rotate the cooktop extractor system and place it with
the top of the top side of the device on the soft layer.
Undo the screws on the control unit on the bottom of
your cooktop extractor system.
Lift up the cover [1].
6.8.4 Installing the additional fan
Install the additional fan in the exhaust duct.
Ensure that a minimum clearance of 3 m is maintained
between the fan units.
Only use BORA universal fans with your BORA cooktop
extractor system.
6.9 Operating the cooktop extractor
with a fireplace that depends on
the air in the room
INFO The state and regional laws and regulations must
be observed with regard to the exhaust duct
design. A sufficient air supply must be ensured.
Fireplaces that depend on the air in the room (e.g. gas,
oil, wood or coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow water
heaters, instantaneous water heaters) draw in air from
the room in which they are installed and release the
exhaust fumes into the outside air via an exhaust system
(e.g. chimney).
If the cooktop extractor is used in exhaust mode, it draws
in air from the room in which it is installed as well as from
neighbouring rooms. If there is insufficient air supply, low
pressure will occur. Toxic gases could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting and back into the room.
Fig. 6.36 Exhaust air installation – not permitted
Fig. 6.37 Exhaust air installation – correct
If simultaneously operating both a fireplace and the
cooktop extractor in the same room, ensure that:
the maximum low pressure is 4 Pa (4 x 10–5 bar);
a safety device (e.g. window contact switch, low
pressure warning device) is used to ensure that a
sufficient supply of fresh air is guaranteed;
the exhaust air is not be ducted into a chimney that
is used for exhaust gases of devices operated with
gas or other combustibles;
the installation is checked and approved by an
authorised certified engineer (e.g. heating engineer).

10.3 Environmentally-friendly disposal
Disposal of transport packaging
INFO The packaging protects the device from damage
in transport. The packaging materials have
been selected from environmental and disposal
perspectives and are therefore recyclable.
Returning the packaging to the materials cycle saves
resources and reduces waste volumes. Your specialist
supplier will take the packaging back.
Give the packaging to your specialist supplier
or
Dispose of the packaging properly in line with local
regulations.
Disposal of old appliance
Electrical devices marked with this label
may not be disposed of in domestic
waste at the end of their service
life. They must be disposed of at a
collection point for the recycling of old
electrical or electronic devices. You
can find information from your city or
district council.
Many electrical and electronic devices still contain
valuable materials. But they also contain damaging
materials which were necessary for them to function
properly and safely. These can damage human health or
the environment if disposed of improperly or incorrectly
handled.
Never put your old appliance in domestic waste.
Take the old appliance to a regional collection point
for return and recycling electrical and electronic
components and other materials.

Observe all safety and warning information (see the
Safety chapter).
11.1 BORA manufacturer’s warranty
BORA provides its end customers with a 2-year
manufacturer’s warranty for its products. The end
customer is entitled to this warranty in addition to the
statutory claims for defects against the sellers of our
products.
The manufacturer’s warranty applies to all BORA products
sold by authorised BORA dealers with the European
Union, with the exception of products labelled by BORA
as Universal products or accessories.
The manufacturer’s warranty starts as soon as the
BORA product is handed over to the end customer by
an authorised BORA dealer and is valid for 2 years.
By registering on www.bora.com/registration the
end customer has the possibility of extending the
manufacturer’s warranty.
The manufacturer’s warranty requires expert (in
accordance with the valid BORA ventilation handbook
and operating instructions at the time of installation)
installation of the BORA products by an authorised BORA
dealer. During use, the end customer is to adhere to the
specifications and instructions in the operating manual.
In order to file a warranty claim, the end customer is to
notify their dealer or BORA of the fault and must present
the receipt. Alternatively, the end customer can provide
proof of purchase by registering on www.bora.com.
BORA guarantees that all BORA products are free from
material and product defects. The defect must exist prior
to delivery of the product to the end customer. In the
event that a warranty claim is filed, the warranty shall not
commence anew.
BORA will correct defects in BORA products at its own
discretion by repairing or replacing the product. All costs
for the correction of defects under the manufacturer’s
warranty shall be assumed by BORA.
Expressly not covered by the BORA manufacturer’s
warranty are:
BORA products that were not sold by authorised BORA
dealers
Damage caused by non-adherence to the operating
instructions (including product care and cleaning) This
represents improper use.
Damage caused by normal use, e.g. traces of usage on
the cooktop
Damage caused by external influences (such as
transport damage, ingress of condensation, damage
caused by the elements such as a lightning strike)
Damage caused by repairs or attempts to repair not
made by BORA or persons authorised by BORA
Damage to the glass ceramic
Voltage fluctuations
Secondary damage or claims for damages beyond the
defect
Damage to plastic parts
Legal claims, particularly statutory claims for defects
or
product liability are not limited by the warranty.
If a defect is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty,
the
end customer can employ the services of the BORA
technical service, however, they must cover the costs
themselves.
The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany apply to
these warranty conditions.
