Installation

Danger to life! Risk of poisoning!

from combustion gases sucked back in. Never operate the 

appliance in the exhaust air mode at the same time as a room 

air-dependent heat-producing appliance unless an adequate 

supply of fresh air is ensured.

Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, 

wood or coal-operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or 

water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which 

they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the 

open through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).
In combination with an activated vapour extractor hood, room 

air is extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms - a 

partial vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is supplied. 

Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are 

sucked back into the living space.

Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.

An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure 

compliance with the limit.

Safe operation is possible only whenever the partial vacuum in 

the place where the firing equipment is installed does not 

exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the 

air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings 

that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, 

incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means.

In any case, consult your responsible chimney sweep. He is 

able to assess the house's entire ventilation setup and will 

suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.
Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour extractor hood 

is operated exclusively in the recirculation mode.

Risk of fire!

from flying sparks. Do not install the appliance above a solid 
fuel heater (e.g. wood or coal) unless a closed, non-removable 
cover is available.

Caution!

Risk of damage from heat accumulation due to an overly 

narrow gap between the appliance and high-sided unit or wall. 

Only one side of the appliance may be installed directly next to 

a high-sided unit or a wall. Distance between the appliance and 

wall or high-sided unit must be at least 50 mm.
The specified safety distances must be observed. Also observe 

the specifications for your cooking appliance. If gas and electric 

hobs are operated together, the largest specified distance 

applies.
The width of the extractor hood must correspond at least with 

the width of the hob.
For the installation, observe the currently valid building 

regulations and the regulations of the local electricity and gas 

suppliers.

Risk of electric shock!

from damaged connection cable. Do not kink or pinch 
connection cable during installation.

Risk of fire, risk of injury!

from damaged connection cable. A damaged connection cable 
must be replaced by a qualified technician (electrician).

Risk of injury!

From sharp edges during installation. Always wear protective 
gloves while installing the appliance.

Risk of injury!

from a falling appliance. All safety screws and safety caps must 
be firmly fitted.

Using the appliance

Risk of burns!

from hot appliance when used with cooking appliances. Keep 
children away and ensure appliance is used properly.

Risk of injury, risk of damage!

from objects placed on the appliance. Never place objects on 
the appliance.

Risk of fire, risk of burns!

if gas hotplates not covered with cooking utensils. Always use 
gas hotplates with appropriate cooking utensils. Regulate flame 
to ensure that it does not lick over the cooking utensil.

Risk of burns, risk of damage!

if several gas hotplates are operated simultaneously. Never 

operate two gas hotplates simultaneously on the highest flame 

for longer than 15 minutes. The housing will become very hot 

due to the intense heat.

Please note: 

One large burner of more than 5 kW (wok) is 

equivalent to the power of two gas burners. 

Risk of fire!

from grease deposits in the metal mesh grease filter. Never 

work under the appliance with a naked flame (e.g. 

flambéing). Always operate the appliance with the metal 

mesh grease filter. Regularly clean the metal mesh grease 

filter.

from overheated fats and oils. Heat fats and oils under 

constant supervision only. Never extinguish fire with water, 

always use a fire blanket, lid or plate. 

Caution!

Risk of damage due to corrosion. Always switch on the 

appliance while cooking to avoid condensation. Condensate 

can produce corrosion damage.

Risk of injury!

from the glare of an LED in risk group 1. Do not look directly 
into the LED light for longer than 100 seconds while it is 
switched on.
