How the cooktop extractor
works
The cooktop extractor is either operated as an exhaust
air system or recirculation system.
Exhaust air operating mode
The cooking vapour is guided by the fan into the open
air via the duct system.
Recirculation mode
The fan channels the cooking vapours into the activated
charcoal filter. The activated charcoal filter absorbs
cooking odours that arise during cooking. The purified
air is fed back into the room.
For health and hygiene reasons, the activated charcoal
filter must be replaced at the recommended intervals
(Cleaning and maintenance).
In recirculation mode, ensure sufficient
ventilation and aeration to expel humidity.

Functions and operation
EN

4.4
How the induction cooktop
works
Induction cooking zones heat the cookware via a
magnetic field. The pot base is heated directly. The
cooking zone is only heated indirectly. Cooking zones
featuring induction technology only work with suitable
cookware (magnetisable base with sufficient diameter).
Power levels
The high power output of induction cooktops results in
the very quick heating up of cookware. In order to avoid
burning food, slight adjustment is needed in comparison
to conventional cooking systems when selecting the
power level.
The specifications provided in the table are standard
values. The power level should be adjusted according to
the cookware and fill level.
Power level Activity
Melting butter and chocolate, breaking up
gelatine
-
Keeping sauces and soups warm, soaking
rice
-
Cooking potatoes, pasta, soups and rag-
outs, steaming fruit, vegetables and fish,
defrosting food
-
Frying in coated pans, moderate frying
(without overheating the fat) of pork cutlets
or fish
-
Heating up fat, browning meat, cooking
thickened sauces and soups, making om-
elettes
Bringing large amounts of liquid to the boil,
searing steaks
Heating up water
Tab.4.4
Recommendations for power levels
Suitable cookware
Cookware with this symbol is suitable for induction
cooktops.
u
Observe the minimum cookware base diameter:
Appliance Cooking zone Minimum cookware base
diameter
X Pure Front 120 mm
Back 120 mm
Tab.4.5
Minimum cookware diameter
u
Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly
onto the glass ceramic.
The heating and heat-through times and
cooking results are significantly influenced by
the structure and material of the cookware.
The cookware base must not be warped or have
any sharp grooves or sharp edges. If the base is
warped, the cookware may not be recognised or
may overheat. Sharp grooves or edges may
scratch the cooktop surface.
Noises
When operating induction cooktops, noises may occur
due to material and processing of the cookware
(humming, crackling, whistling, clicking or buzzing).

Installation
u
Observe all safety and warning information
(see"2Safety").
11.1
General installation
instructions
The power supply cable must be provided by the
customer.
The appliance must not be installed above
cooling devices, dishwashers, stoves, ovens,
washing machines or dryers.
The contact surfaces of the worktops and wall
sealing strips must be made of a heat-resistant
material (up to approx. 100°C).
Worktop cut-outs must be moisture-sealed
using suitable means and, where necessary,
fitted with a thermal insulator.
The integrated cooktop extractor must not be
used with other cooktops.
To maintain the level of performance and avoid
overheating, sufficient ventilation must be
ensured below the cooktops.
If cable protection (false floor) is planned
beneath the appliance, this must be fitted so it
does not obstruct ventilation.
11.1.1
Simultaneous operation of the
cooktop extractor in the exhaust
air mode with a fireplace
dependent upon the air supply in
the room
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 air mode, it
draws in air from the room in which it is installed as well
as from neighbouring rooms. Without sufficient air,
there will be a drop in air pressure. Toxic gases could be
drawn out of the chimney or extraction ducting and
back into the room.
Fig.11.1
Exhaust air installation – not permitted
Fig.11.2
Exhaust air installation – correct
u
If simultaneously operating both the cooktop with a
fireplace and the cooktop extractor in the room they
are installed, ensure that...
T
...the maximum low pressure is 4Pa;
T
...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;
T
...the exhaust air is not channelled into a chimney
that is used for exhaust gases of appliances operated
with gas or other combustibles;
T
...the installation is checked and approved by an
authorised certified engineer (e.g. heating engineer).
If the cooktop extractor is used exclusively in
recirculation mode, simultaneous operation with a
fireplace dependent on the air in the room is
possible without any additional safety measures.

Preparing kitchen units for
exhaust air models
National and regional laws and regulations must
be observed with regard to the exhaust duct
design.
A sufficient air supply must be ensured.
The exhaust air must be directed to the outside
by appropriate exhaust air ducts.
The minimum cross section of the exhaust air
duct must be 176 mm
2
which equates to a
round pipe with a diameter of 150mm or the
BORA Ecotube duct system.
As a general rule, with the built-in fan, a length
of duct of up to 6 metres with six 90° bends, 8
metres with four 90° bends or 10 metres with
two 90° bends can be installed.
Not compatible with BORA Universal fans.
Planning instructions for the installation of the

11.7.2
Installation variants A and B for
recirculation appliances
There are 2 installation variants for recirculation
appliances:
A: floor unit with continuous back panel
The recirculated air is guided through the connection
with the back wall of the air purification box directly
behind the back panel of the unit. The recirculated air
goes back in to the room through the return flow
aperture.
For installation purposes, this means that:
T
No false floor is necessary below the cooktop.
T
There must be a cut-out in the back panel.
B: floor unit with false floor under the cooktop
The recirculated air is blown into the free space
between the worktop and the false floor (the air
purification box does not connect with the back panel).
The recirculated air goes behind the back panel of the
unit and through the return flow aperture back into the
room.
For installation purposes, this means that:
T
a false floor is necessary below the cooktop.
T
There does not need to be a cut-out in the back
panel of the unit.
11.7.3
Preparing the kitchen unit for
installation variant A
T
The floor unit must have a continuous back panel so
that the recirculated air is not directed into the front
furniture body compartment.

Environmentally-friendly
disposal
12.3.1
Disposal of transport packaging
The packaging protects the appliance from
damage during transport. The packaging
materials have been selected taking into
account the environment and their disposal and
are therefore recyclable.
Recycling the packaging saves raw materials and
reduces waste. Your specialist retailer will take the
packaging back.
u
Give the packaging to your specialist retailer
or
u
dispose of the packaging correctly observing regional
regulations.
12.3.2
Disposal of accessories
Dispose of unnecessary or used accessories (activated
charcoal filters, etc.) accordingly taking into account
the regional regulations.
12.3.3
Disposal of the old appliance
Electrical appliances with this mark must
not be disposed of in the household
waste at the end of their service life. They
must be disposed of at a collection point
for the recycling of electrical or elec-
tronic appliances. Information on this can
be obtained from the city or local coun-
cils.
Waste electrical and electronic appliances often still
contain valuable materials. However, they also contain
harmful substances that were necessary to make them
work and ensure their safety. If placed in the household
waste or handled incorrectly, they may harm human
health and damage the environment.
u
Never dispose of your old appliance in the household
waste.
u
Take the appliance to a regional collection point for
the return and further processing of electrical and
electronic components and other materials.
