WARNING

Do not repair, replace or remove any part of the

Refer to this manual for guidance. All other servicing

should be done by a qualified technician.

WARNING

Risk of injury

Items placed on the appliance may fall down. Do not

Proper Installation and Maintenance

Have the installer show you the location of the circuit

breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

This appliance must be properly installed and

grounded by a qualified technician. Connect only to

properly grounded outlet. Refer to Installation

Instructions for details.

This appliance is intended for normal family

household use only. It is not approved for outdoor

use. See the Warranty. If you have any questions,

contact the manufacturer.

Do not store or use corrosive chemicals, vapors,

flammables or nonfood products in or near this

appliance. It is specifically designed for use when

heating or cooking food. The use of corrosive

chemicals in heating or cleaning will damage the

appliance and could result in injury.

Do not operate this appliance if it is not working

properly, or if it has been damaged. Contact an

authorized servicer.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance

unless specifically recommended in this manual. Refer

all servicing to a factory authorized service center.

CAUTION

Grease left on filters can remelt and move into the

vent.

Hidden surfaces may have sharp edges. Use caution

when reaching behind or under appliance.

WARNING

When the hood is operated in exhaust-air mode

simultaneously with a different burner which also

makes use of the same chimney (such as gas, oil or

coal-fired heaters, continuous-flow heaters, hot-water

boilers) care must be taken to ensure that there is an

adequate supply of fresh air which will be needed by

the burner for combustion.

Safe operation is possible provided that the under

pressure in the room where the burner is installed

does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

This can be achieved if combustion air can flow

through non-lockable openings, e.g. in doors,

windows and via the air-intake/exhaust-air wall box or

by other technical measures, such as reciprocal

interlocking, etc.

WARNING

Avoid carbon monoxide poisoning – Provide adequate

air intake so combustion gases are not drawn back

into the room.

An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is no

guarantee that the limiting value will not be exceeded.

Note: When assessing the overall requirement, the

combined ventilation system for the entire household

must be taken into consideration. This rule does not

apply to the use of cooking appliances, such as

cooktops and ovens.
