Danger of suffocation!
Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never
allow children to play with packaging material.
m
Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are drawn back
in.
Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the
appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the
same time as room air-dependent heat-producing
appliance is being operated.
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 air 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 when the partial vacuum
in the place where the heat-producing appliance is
installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be
achieved when 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 Master 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 circulating-
air mode.
