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.
:Warning
Risk of fire!
■ Grease deposits in the grease filter may 
catch fire.
Clean the grease filter at least every 
2 months. 
Never operate the appliance without the 
grease filter.
Risk of fire!
■ Grease deposits in the grease filter may 
catch fire. Never work with naked flames 
close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do 
not install the appliance near a heat-
producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g. 
wood or coal) unless a closed, non-
removable cover is available. There must 
be no flying sparks.
Risk of fire!
■ Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never 
leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use 
water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch off 
the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully 
using a lid, fire blanket or something similar. 
Risk of fire!
■ When gas burners are in operation without 
any cookware placed on them, they can 
build up a lot of heat. A ventilation 
appliance installed above the cooker may 
become damaged or catch fire. Only 
operate the gas burners with cookware on 
them.
Risk of fire!
■ Operating several gas burners at the same 
time gives rise to a great deal of heat. A 
ventilation appliance installed above the 
cooker may become damaged or catch fire. 
Never operate two gas burners 
simultaneously on the highest flame for 
longer than 15 minutes. One large burner of 
more than 5 kW (wok) is equivalent to the 
power of two gas burners.
:Warning
Risk of burns!
The accessible parts become very hot when in 
operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep 
children at a safe distance.
:Warning
Risk of injury!
■ Components inside the appliance may have 
sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.
Risk of injury!
■ Items placed on the appliance may fall 
down. Do not place any objects on the 
appliance.
Risk of injury!
■ The light emitted by LED lights is very 
dazzling, and can damage the eyes (risk 
group 1). Do not look directly into the 
switched on LED lights for longer than 100 
seconds.
