Important notes about the extraction mode
WARNING
Risk of poisoning from exhaust gases sucked back. Never
operate the device in extraction mode simultaneously with an
open fl ue appliance when there is not adequate airfl ow
guaranteed.
Open fl ue combustion equipment (for example, gas, oil, wood or coal-fi red
heaters, tankless water heaters, water heaters) pulls combustion air from the
room and runs it through an exhaust pipe or chimney to the outside. In the
extraction mode, indoor air is removed from the kitchen and the adjacent rooms
- without suffi cient air intake this creates a vacuum. Toxic gases from the chimney
or extraction fl ue can thereby be sucked back into the living spaces.
•
Always ensure that a suffi cient supply of fresh air is guaranteed and that the
air can circulate.
•
An air supply / extractor box alone does not ensure compliance with the limit
value.
Safe operation is only possible when the negative pressure in the room where the
appliance is located does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when
the air required for combustion can fl ow through openings that are not closable,
for example in doors, windows, in conjunction with an air supply / extractor box or
through other technical measures. In any case, consult a qualifi ed chimney sweep
who can assess the entire ventilation of your house and propose appropriate
measures for adequate ventilation.
If the hood is used exclusively in the recirculation mode, unrestricted operation is
possible.
Important note on disassembly of the device
• Disassembly is similar to installation/assembly in reverse order.
•
Take a second person to help you during disassembly to avoid injuries.
