Risk of fire!

Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. The specified

safety distances must be observed in order to prevent an

accumulation of heat. Observe the specifications for your

cooking appliance. If gas and electric hobs are operated

together, the largest specified distance applies.
Only one side of the appliance may be installed directly next to

a high-sided unit or a wall. The distance between the appliance

and wall or high-sided unit must be at least 50 mm.
Risk of injury!

Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges.

Wear protective gloves.

Risk of injury!

The appliance may fall down if it has not been properly

fastened in place. All fastening components must be fixed

firmly and securely.

Risk of injury!

The appliance is heavy. To move the appliance, 2 people are

required. Use only suitable tools and equipment.

Risk of electric shock!

Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. These

may damage the connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch the

connecting cable during installation.
Danger of suffocation!

Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never allow

children to play with packaging material.

General information

Exhaust air mode
Note:
The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a functioning

smoke or exhaust gas flue or into a shaft which is used to

ventilate installation rooms which contain heat-producing

appliances.

Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-functioning smoke

or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the heating

engineer responsible.

If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a

telescopic wall box should be used.

Exhaust duct
Note:
The device manufacturer does not assume any warranty

for complaints attributable to the pipe section.

The device achieves its optimum performance by means of a

short, straight exhaust air pipe and as large a pipe diameter

as possible.

As a result of long rough exhaust air pipes, many pipe bends

or pipe diameters that are smaller than 150 mm, the optimum

extraction performance is not achieved and fan noise is

increased.

The pipes or hoses for laying the exhaust air line must consist

of non-combustible material.

Round pipes

An inner diameter of 150 mm, but at least 120 mm, is

recommended.
Flat ducts

The inner cross-section must correspond to the diameter of the

round pipes.

dia. 120 mm ca. 113 cm

Flat ducts should not have any sharp deflections.

Use sealing strips for deviating pipe diameters.

Checking the wall

The wall must be level, vertical and adequately load-bearing.

The depth of the bore holes must be the same length as the

screws. The wall plugs must have a secure grip.

The enclosed screws and wall plugs are suitable for solid

brickwork. Suitable fasteners must be used for other

structures (e.g. plasterboard, porous concrete, poroton

bricks).

The max. weight of the extractor hood is 40 kg.

Electrical connection
:

Risk of electric shock!

Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. These

may damage the connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch the

connecting cable during installation.
The required connection data can be found on the rating plate

inside the appliance; to do this, remove the metal mesh grease

filter.

Length of the cable: approx. 1.30 m

This appliance complies with the EC interference suppression

regulations.
This appliance may be connected to a correctly installed

earthed socket only.
Attach the earthed socket preferably inside the flue duct.

The earthed socket should be connected via its own circuit.

If the earthed socket is no longer accessible following

installation of the appliance, a disconnecter must be fitted as

for a permanent connection.

If a permanent connection is required, the installation must

feature an all-pole disconnecter (circuit breakers, fuses and

contactors) with a min. 3 mm contact opening. The permanent

connection may be installed by an electrician only.

Appliance measurements (fig. 1)
Preparing for installation (fig. 2)

Caution!

Ensure that there are no electric wires, gas or water pipes in the

area where holes are to be made.

1.

Mark a vertical centre line on the wall from the ceiling to the

lower edge of the extractor hood.

2.

Mark the positions for the screws and the contour of the

attachment area.

3.

Drill five 8 mm Ø holes to a depth of 80 mm for the

attachments and press in the wall plugs flush with the wall.

Fitting the appliance

Fitting the wall bracket (fig. 3)

1.

Screw on the fixing bracket for the flue duct.

¨

2.

Screw on mounting brackets for the extractor hood hand-tight,

max. 3 Nm.

©

3.

Screw in the threaded pin, leaving it protruding out of the wall

by 5 - 9 mm.

ª

Fixing the appliance in place and aligning it (fig. 4)

1.

First remove the protective foil from the back of the appliance

and, following installation, remove the foil completely.

2.

When attaching the appliance, ensure that it engages firmly

with the brackets.

«

required, the appliance can be moved to the right or left.

¬

Securing the appliance

1.

Press the safety caps with the arrow upwards onto the brackets

until they engage.

®

2.

Remove the ventilation panels (see the instructions for use;

refer to the "Cleaning the inside of the appliance" section of the
