3 Operating the appliance
▸ If a connection could be established, this must be confirmed on the hob. See the op-
erating instructions for the hob for this.
The buttons and operating elements on the range hood are deactivated during the
connection process.
A range hood may be connected to as many as three hobs. And a single hob may
be simultaneously connected to several range hoods. Establishing a connection
requires appliances are equipped with OptiLink.
Operating modes
There are three modes under OptiLink operation. They vary by reaction time and max-
imum possible power level. This allows the user the possibility to set their own prefer-
ence.
Operating mode Reaction time Maximum power level
Silent mode 60 secs. 2
Standard mode 45 secs. 3
Intensive mode 20 secs. Intensive
Selecting operating mode
▸ Switch the appliance and the illumination off.
▸ With the appliance switched off, press the and buttons simultaneously.
– The currently selected operating mode is indicated by the LED for the / or
button.
▸ Select the desired operating mode by pressing the corresponding button.
– Five seconds after the last entry, the setting that was selected is saved.
How the range hood behaves when OptiLink is activated
When OptiLink is turned on
– The range hood illumination comes on when the hob is switched on.
– The range hood switches on immediately at power level 1 as soon as a power level
is assigned to a cooking zone. The range hood maintains power level 1 for the dur-
ation of the reaction time according to the mode selected before the power level is
adjusted to the hob setting.
– The range hood controls the power level in line with the current setting on the hob.
Manual operation
– When the hob or OptiLink is turned off, manual operation is possible at all times.
Manual overriding
– When the hob is switched on and OptiLink is activated, manual overriding is pos-
sible at all times. Three minutes after the last entry, OptiLink resumes control.
After-running time
The after-running time function is activated as soon as the cooking process ends. This
happens under the following conditions:
– The last active cooking zone is reduced to power level 0 or is operated using the
melting function.
– The hob is switched off while the range hood fan is being operated at power level
1, 2, 3 or intensive.
