WITH THE HOME CONNECT™ FEATURE
With Home Connect™, the appliance is Wi-Fi-capable and can be
remotely controlled using a mobile device (e.g. tablet PC, smartphone).
Home Connect™ app offers additional functions which are a perfect
complement to the networked appliance.
Home Connect™ does not work over Wi-Fi networks that require
browser registration, i.e. a user name and password entered via a web
browser. You should have a stable wireless network with good reception
and access to the internet.
If the appliance is not connected to the WLAN network (home
network), it functions in the same way as a typical hood with no network
connection and can be operated as usual via the Touch Panel.
NOTE: Please ensure that you follow the safety instructions given at the
beginning of this instruction manual and that these are also observed
when operating the appliance via the Home Connect™ app and when
away from home. Please also follow the instructions in the Home
Connect™ app.
NOTE: Operation on the appliance itself always takes priority, and
during this time it is not possible to operate the appliance using Home
Connect™ App.
Cooktop-Hood Sync
You can connect this appliance to a matching cooktop (if the cooktop
supports connection to the hood) and then control the functions of the
hood via your cooktop.
There are various options for connecting the appliances:
Home Connect™
Two appliances can be connected using the Home Connect™ app
provided that both appliances are Home Connect™ compatible.
Refer to the Home Connect™ documents supplied for more
information.
Connecting appliances directly
If the appliance is connected directly to a cooktop, it cannot be
connected to your home network as well. The appliance will function in
the same way as a hood that is not connected to the network and you
can continue to operate it via the touch control panel.
Connecting appliances via your home network
If the appliances are connected to each other via your home network,
both the hood controls on the cooktop and Home Connect™ can be
used to operate the appliance.
NOTES:
• Make sure you follow the safety instructions in the instruction manual
for your hood and that these are complied with even when operating
the appliance via the hood controls on the cooktop.
• If the hood is being operated by means of the touch control panel
on the hood itself, this mode of operation always has priority. It is not
possible to use the hood controls on the cooktop during this time.
Setting up a connection
To set up the connection between the hood and the cooktop, the hood
must be switched off and the cooktop must be switched on before you
can connect the cooktop and hood.
Connecting directly
Ensure that the cooktop is switched on and is in search mode.
To do this, refer to the section entitled “Connecting to the hood” in the
instruction manual for your cooktop.
NOTES
• If your hood is connected directly to the cooktop, it cannot be
connected to your home network as well and you will not be able to
use Home Connect™.
• The cooktop must not be connected to your home network. To break
a connection, follow the instructions in the section entitled
“Disconnecting from the network”.
Press and hold the CONNECT button until it starts to ash.
The hood has been connected to the cooktop when the CONNECT
button stops ashing and remains continuously lit.
Connecting via your home network
Follow the instructions in the section entitled “Connecting your hood to
your home network (Wi-Fi)” on page 18.
Once the hood is connected to your home network, you can connect to
the hob via the Home Connect™ app. To do this, follow the instructions
on your mobile device.
Setting up
To implement settings via Home Connect™, you must have installed the
Home Connect™ App on a mobile device (e.g. tablet PC, smartphone).
Follow the steps speci ed by the app to implement the settings.

to Home Connect™?

the operating system it uses.
