are used to evacuate the fumes of gas (or another fuel) 

operated devices.

•  If the extractor fan is going to be used simultaneously 

with equipment powered by a non-electric energy 

source, e.g.: gas cookers, then the room must have 

sufficient ventilation.

Instructions for use

You can activate or deactivate the cooker hood by operating 

the functions shown in the diagram.
Switch on the extractor fan a few minutes before you start 

to cook in order to ensure that a steady air flow has been 

established before fumes appear.
Allow the extractor fan to run for several minutes after you 

have finished cooking (between 3 to 5 minutes) in order to 

expel all the grease from the outlet duct. This prevents the 

return of grease, smoke and smells.
