Do not use abrasive agents. 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. 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. 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. Setting the saturation indicator If it becomes necessary to change the operating mode (exhaust-air/recirculating mode), the saturation indicator for the filters must also be altered (see Installation Instructions). If you encounter a problem If an # or a appears in the display: . See "Filters and maintenance" Section. If is not possible to operate the extractor hood: . Disconnect the extractor hood from the mains electricity supply by pulling out the plug or switching it off at the main fuse box. Wait for approx. 1 minute and then switch it on again. If you have any questions or if a fault occurs, please call Customer Service. (See list of Customer Service representatives). When you call, please quote the following: E-Nr. FD Enter the relevant numbers into the box above. The E-Nr. (product no.) and FD (production date) are shown on the nameplate which can be seen inside the extractor hood after the filter frame has been detached. Installation Instructions: Important information Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. If they are disposed of in an environment-friendly manner, valuable raw materials can be recovered for use again. Before you dispose of an old appliance, make sure that it has been rendered inoperative. Your new appliance was protected on its way to you by the packaging.

You can obtain information about the best method disposing of old appliances and packaging from your dealer or local municipal council. The extractor hood can be used in either exhaust-air or recirculating mode. Always mount the extractor hood over the centre of the hob. Minimum distance between electric hob and bottom edge of extractor hood: 550 mm, Fig. 1. Additional notes concerning gas cookers: When installing gas hotplates, comply with the relevant national statutory regulations (e.g. in Germany: Technische Regeln Gasinstallation TRGI). The relevant regulations and installation notes provided by the manufacturer of the gas cooker must be observed in all cases. The extractor hood may be installed next to only one full-height cupboard or high wall. Gap to be at least 50 mm. During installation observe a minimum distance of 650 mm above the gas hotplates. Fig. 1. Gas hotplates may only be used when cooking utensils have been placed on them. Gas hobs / gas cookers: . The heat load of all the hotplates which is produced during operation must not exceed 8.0 kW, irrespective of the installed nominal output. . Exception: The hotplates may be operated briefly (max. 15 minutes) at a heat load up to 11.3 kW if at least fan setting 2 has been permanently switched on. (Otherwise, there is a risk of burns if the housing surfaces are touched). . Solid-fuel cookers The maximum nominal heat loads and the minimum distance are the same as for gas cookers. Installation of the extractor hood over a solid-fuel burner which could constitute a potential fire hazard (e.g. due to flying sparks) is only permitted if the burner is equipped with an enclosed, non- removable cover and all country-specific regulations are observed. This restriction does not apply to gas cookers and gas hobs. The smaller the gap between extractor hood and hob, the greater the likelihood that rising steam will cause condensation to form on the hood.
