Cleaning and care
Isolate the extractor hood by pulling out
the mains plug or switching off the fuse.
ṇ Do not clean the extractor hood with
abrasive sponges or with cleaning agents
which contain sand, soda, acid or chlorine!
q Clean the extractor hood with a hot soap
solution or a mild window cleaner.
q Do not scrape off dried-on dirt but wipe
off with a damp cloth.
q When cleaning the grease filters, remove
grease deposits from accessible parts of
the housing. This prevents the risk of fire
and ensures that the extractor hood
continues operating at maximum
efficiency.
q Note: Do not use alcohol (spirit) on
plastic surfaces, as dull marks may
appear.
Caution: Ensure that the kitchen is ade-
quately ventilated. Avoid naked flames!
ṇ Clean the operating buttons with a mild
soapy solution and a soft, damp cloth only.
Do not use stainless-steel cleaner to clean
the operating buttons.
Stainless steel surfaces:
q Use a mild non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
q Clean the surface in the same direction
as it has been ground and polished.
q We recommend our stainless steel
cleaner no. 461731.
See enclosed service booklet for order
address.
Aluminium and plastic surfaces:
q Do not use dry cloths.
q Use a mild window cleaning agent.
q Do not use aggressive, acidic or caustic
cleaners.
Observe the warranty regulations in the
enclosed service booklet.
4. Re-insert the bulb ring.
5. Plug the appliance into the mains or
switch it on at the fuse box.
Note: If the light does not function, check
that the bulbs have been inserted correctly.
Replacing the light bulbs
1. Switch off the extractor hood and pull
out the mains plug or switch off the
electricity supply at the fuse box.
ṇ When switched on, the halogen bulbs
become very hot. Even for some time after
the bulbs have been switched off there is
still a risk of burns.
2. Remove the bulb ring with a screwdriver
or similar tool.
3. Replace the halogen light bulb
(conventional halogen bulb, 12 Volt,
max. 20 Watt, G4 cap).
Caution: Refer for plug-in lampholder.
Take hold of the bulb with a clean cloth.
Important information
Installation Instructions:
Additional information concerning gas
cookers:
ṇ When installing gas hotplates, comply
with the relevant national statutory
regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische
Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI).
ṇ Always comply with the currently valid
regulations and installation instructions
supplied by the gas appliance
manufacturer.
ṇ Only one side of the extractor hood
may be installed next to a high-sided unit
or high wall. Gap at least 50 mm.
ṇ Minimum distance on gas hotplates
between the upper edge of the trivet
and lower edge of the extractor
hood: 650 mm, Fig. 1.
ṇ Old appliances are not worthless
rubbish. Valuable raw materials can be
reclaimed by recycling old appliances.
Before disposing of your old appliance,
render it unusable.
ṇ You received your new appliance in a
protective shipping carton. All packaging
materials are environmentally friendly and
recyclable. Please contribute to a better
environment by disposing of packaging
materials in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
Please ask your dealer or inquire at your
local authority about current means of
disposal.
ṇ The extractor hood can be used in
exhaust air or circulating air mode.
ṇ Always mount the extractor hood over
the centre of the hob.
ṇ Minimum distance between electric
hob and bottom edge of extractor hood:
550 mm, Fig. 1.
ṇThe extractor hood must not be
installed over a solid fuel cooker – a
potential fire hazard (e.g. flying sparks) –
unless the cooker features a closed,
non-removable cover and all national
regulations are observed.
ṇ The smaller the gap between the
extractor hood and hotplates, the greater
the likelihood that droplets will form on the
underside of the extractor hood.
