Safety instructions for assembly and use
-
The metal grease filters must always be in place when the cooker hood is in
operation. Greasy vapours may otherwise be deposited in the hood and in the
extraction air system.
-
In the case of gas cookers it is important to ensure that the cooking zones are
not operated without any cookware. Uncovered gas flames may damage
components of the cooker hood as a result of rising heat.
-
Never flambé under the cooker hood as there is a risk of fire. The rising flame
could ignite the fat that has been deposited in the filter.
-
Constant supervision is essential when deep-frying or cooking with oil or fat
under the hood because of the risk of fire.
-
No other work may be carried out with an open flame. A fire may result and
damage the metal grease filter or other parts of the hood. This does not
include the proper use of a gas cooker.
