Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. 

Here you can find tips on how to save even more 

energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose 

of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

■

During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient 

supply of air to enable the extractor hood to work 

efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.

■

Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam 

produced during cooking. Only use intensive mode 

when required. The lower the fan speed, the less 

energy is consumed.

■

If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select 

a higher fan speed in good time. If the cooking 

steam has already spread around the kitchen, the 

extractor hood will need to be operated for longer.

■

Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require 

it.

■

Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.

■

Clean and (if required) replace the filter at regular 

intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the 

ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.

■

Put the lid on to reduce cooking steam and 

condensation.
