Functional description
The cooker hood works with
. . . air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
The cooker hood is fitted with a
non-return flap .
This flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off. No exchange of
room air and outside air can take
place. When the cooker hood is
switched on, the non-return flap opens
for the cooking vapours to be blown di-
rectly outside.
. . . air recirculation:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
grease filters and then cleaned by ac-
tive
charcoal filters . The cleaned air is
then recirculated back into the kitchen
through a vent in the top of the cooker
hood extension piece.
Before using the cooker hood for
the first time, ensure that the active
charcoal filters are in place, see
section on "Cleaning and care".
. . . an external fan
The EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external fan located
outside the room.
The external fan is connected to the
cooker hood by means of a control
cable and is operated by the control
panel on the cooker hood.
