WARNING‒Risk of fire!
Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch
fire.
▶ Never operate the appliance without a
grease filter.
▶ Clean the grease filters regularly.
▶ Never work with naked flames close to the
appliance (e.g. flambéing).
▶ Do not install the appliance near a solid
fuel heating appliance (e.g. wood- or coal-
burning) unless the heating appliance has
a sealed, non-removable cover. There must
be no flying sparks.
Hot oil and fat ignites very quickly.

any cookware placed on them, they can build
up a lot of heat. A ventilation appliance in-
stalled above the cooker may become dam-
aged or catch fire.
▶ Only operate the gas burners with cook-
ware on them.
Operating multiple gas hobs at the same time
generates a great deal of heat. A ventilation
Safety en

appliance installed above the cooker may be-
come damaged or catch fire.
▶ Only operate the gas hobs with cookware
on them.
▶ Select the highest fan setting.
▶ Never operate two gas hobs simultan-
eously on the highest flame for longer than
15 minutes. Two gas hobs correspond to
one large burner.
▶ Never operate large burners of more than
5kW with the highest flame for longer
than 15minutes, e.g. a wok.
A non-regenerable odour filter may catch fire
in the oven.
▶ Only regenerable odour filters that can be
regenerated.
Fatty deposits in the grease filters may catch
fire.
▶ Clean the grease filters regularly.
WARNING‒Risk of suffocation!
Children may put packaging material over
their heads or wrap themselves up in it and
suffocate.
▶ Keep packaging material away from chil-
dren.
▶ Do not let children play with packaging ma-
terial.
Children may breathe in or swallow small
parts, causing them to suffocate.
▶ Keep small parts away from children.
▶ Do not let children play with small parts.
WARNING‒Risk of poisoning!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases being
drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-pro-
ducing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-
operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or
water heaters) obtain combustion air from the
room in which they are installed and dis-
charge the exhaust gases into the open
through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chim-
ney). With the extractor hood switched on, air
is extracted from the kitchen and the adjacent
rooms. Without an adequate supply of air, the
air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure.
Toxic gases from the chimney or the extrac-
tion shaft are sucked back into the living
space.
▶ Always ensure adequate fresh air in the
room if the appliance is being operated in
exhaust air mode at the same time as a
room-air-dependent heat-producing appli-
ance is being operated.
▶ It is only possible to safely operate the ap-
pliance if the pressure in the room in which
the heating appliance is installed does not
fall below 4Pa(0.04mbar). This can be
achieved whenever the air needed for com-
bustion is able to enter through openings
that cannot be sealed, for example in
doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall
boxes or by other technical means. An in-
coming/exhaust air wall box alone is not
sufficient to ensure compliance with the
limit.
▶ In any case, consult your responsible chim-
ney sweep. They are able to assess the
house's entire ventilation setup and will
suggest the suitable ventilation measures
to you.
▶ Unrestricted operation is possible if the ap-
pliance is operated exclusively in circulat-
ing-air mode.

Operating modes
4 Operating modes
You can use your appliance in air extraction mode or
circulating-air mode.
4.1 Air extraction mode
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease fil-
ters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.
The air must not be discharged into a
flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other
fuels (not applicable to appliances that
only discharge the air back into the
room).
¡ If the exhaust air is to be conveyed
into a non-functioning smoke or ex-
haust gas flue, you must obtain the
consent of the heating engineer re-
sponsible.
¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed
through the external wall, a tele-
scopic duct should be used.
4.2 Air recirculation
The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease fil-
ters and an odour filter, and conveyed back into the
room.
To bind odours in air recirculation
mode, you must install an odour filter.
The different options for operating the
appliance in air circulation mode can
be found in our catalogue. Alternatively,

13.8 Instructions for the exhaust air pipe
The appliance manufacturer does not provide any war-
ranty for faults attributable to the pipeline.
¡ Use a short, straight exhaust air pipe with as large a
pipe diameter as possible.
¡ Long, rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe bends or
small pipe diameters reduce the suction power and
increase the fan noise.
¡ Use an exhaust air pipe that is made of non-com-
bustible material.
¡ To prevent condensate from returning, fit the ex-
haust pipe with a 1° gradient from the appliance.
Round pipes
Use round pipes with an inner diameter of 150mm (re-
commended) or at least 120mm.
Flat ducts
Use flat ducts with an inner cross-section that corres-
ponds to the diameter of the round pipes:
¡ Diameter of 150mm corresponds to ap-
prox.177cm².
¡ Diameter of 120mm corresponds to ap-
prox.113cm².
¡ Use sealing strips for different pipe diameters.
¡ Do not use any flat ducts with sharp bends.
13.9 Instructions for the air extraction mode
For air extraction mode, a one-way flap should be in-
stalled.
Notes
¡ If a one-way flap is not included with the appliance,
one can be ordered from a specialist retailer.
¡ If the exhaust air is conveyed through the external
wall, a telescopic duct should be used.
13.10 Information about circulating-air
mode
The appliance must only be operated when it is se-
curely installed and the pipework is connected.
