Operating the appliance
These instructions apply to several appliance variants. It is
possible that individual features are described which do not
apply to your appliance.
Note: Switch on the extractor hood when you start cooking and
switch it off again several minutes after you have finished
cooking. This is the most effective way of removing the kitchen
fumes.
