2 Safety
2.1 What you need to take into account
Attention! Make sure the appliance is installed by an authorised installer (see
“Installation” chapter). Do not connect the appliance to the flow network before
completing the installation.
Connect the appliance in accordance with the applicable regulations in your area. •
We advise you to wear protective work gloves during the installation of the exhaust •
hood due to possible sharp edges.
• The appliance has been manufactured in accordance with the latest safety standards.
However we do advise that mentally handicapped, disabled or retarded individuals
do not use this appliance without the proper supervision of a competent person. The
same applies to children.
Never use the exhaust hood when the grease filter has not been properly installed! •
Do not lean against the exhaust hood. •
Make sure there is sufficient circulation when you use the exhaust hood on a gas •
cooker.
The exhaust exit must never be connected to a smoke duct which is also used for •
other heating appliances.
Never flambé under the exhaust hood and always clean the filters on time. Frying •
needs to be done under constant supervision to prevent the heated fat from
catching fire.
The exhaust hood needs to be cleaned regularly (at least once a month) on the •
inside as well as on the outside. When the filters are insufficiently cleaned or
replaced, this will result in a fire hazard.
If the connection cable becomes damaged, it should be replaced by the •
manufacturer’s service department or by a person with equivalent qualifications, in
order to prevent dangerous situations from arising.
First disconnect the appliance from the socket when you replace the lights! Only use •
identical lamps with the wattage indicated. Only use the exhaust hood with lamps
installed to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
The grease filters become hot during operation. Wait a minimum of 30 minutes after •
cooking before cleaning it.
