Coanda effect • You do not need to activate the Coanda effect. The Coanda air flow is always active at every fan level. Cooking vapours are extracted particularly well at the front of the cooking field. • The Coanda effect may allow you to operate the extractor hood at a lower, quieter level than you were previously accustomed to. • The Coanda air flow exits the top of the extractor hood’s front panel. Do not place any objects on the extractor hood: these may disrupt the Coanda effect.
Operating for the First Time If you encounter a problem The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance. In the event of malfunctions, first of all check the household fuses. If the problem has nothing to do with the power supply, please contact your specialist dealer or your local Gaggenau after-sales service.

Prior to installation Exhaust-air mode • Installation accessories for exhaust air mode. Ventilation duct AD280-016 for ceiling heights of 89 3/ 8”–96 1/ 16” AD280-026 for ceiling heights of 96 1/ 16”–108 21/ 32” AD280-036 for ceiling heights of 108 21/ 32”–117 21/ 64”. Exhaust Air 2413/16" - 5423/32" 163/16" 113/16" 1923/32" Ø 6" 35/32" Ø 6" 42" 279/ The exhaust air is discharged upwards through a ventilation shaft or directly through the outside wall into the open.
For optimum extractor hood efficiency: Connecting a l 6” exhaust-air pipe: • • • • Short, smooth air exhaust pipe. As few bends in the pipe as possible. Mount the pipe directly onto the air outlet on the hood. Diameter of pipe to be as large as possible and no tight bends in pipe. If long, rough exhaust-air pipes, many pipe bends or smaller pipe diameters are used, the air extraction rate will no longer be at an optimum level and there will be an increase in noise.
• • The ceiling must be flat and horizontal. The extractor hood should only be connected to an earthed socket that has been installed according to relevant regulations. Make sure that the ceiling can bear the applied loads. If possible, site the earthed socket directly behind the chimney panelling. • The provided screws and wall plugs are suitable for solid masonry. On all other wall types (e.g. plasterboard, porous concrete, Poroton bricks) use the appropriate fasteners.
Installation 77/ 8" 135/8" Note: the extractor hood is to be installed to a kitchen ceiling or suspended ceiling. Ensure that the ceiling is capable of providing a firm hold for a maximum weight of hood and accessories of 45 kg. Before marking the securing holes, make sure that no electricity wires or water pipes or other wires/ pipes are laid at the drilling points in the ceiling. Before installation check the enclosed wall plugs and screws are suitable for your ceiling.
5 Hang the support frame with the two key-holes to the two screws in the ceiling and attach it with all 4 screws to the ceiling. Circulating air mode only: assemble the circulating air switch module and fix it to support frame. Cut the flexible air pipe to the required length and fix it to the extractor hood. 6 Remove the cover plate from the rear of the support frame.
7 Slide the extractor hood into the on the side of the support frame (Note: take care not to trap the mains connecting cable) and immediately secure the hood with 4 screws. 8 Screw the cover plate back on the rear of the support frame. The cover plate is important for the stability of the frame. 9 Connect the air outlet pipe to the extractor hood and to the exhaust air pipe on the ceiling (to the circulating air switch module for circulating air mode). 10 Establish the electrical connection.
