Using the extractor hood as an exhaust air hood (with air extracted to
outdoors)
If the extractor hood has been fitted at the factory with a carbon filter, this must be
removed. It is only practicable to use this when operating your hood in circulation mode.
Converting the extractor hood to a circulation hood
If you wish to use an appropriately fitted hood as a circulation hood, you must mount the
active carbon filter(s) to the fan motor before using the hood. The active carbon filter(s)
is/are included in the scope of supply with some models. Otherwise you must obtain
the active carbon filter(s) from the supplier of your extractor hood. You must also change
your hood over to the „Filter position" at the device provided (lever or ball handle).
Electrical connection
Before connecting the extractor hood, check that the voltage stated on the rating plate
(V) agrees with the supply voltage in your home. Never install the appliance if the data
on the rating plate does not agree with your supply voltage. You will find the rating plate
inside the appliance, behind the grease filter.
If the appliance is not fitted with a connector plug, a two-pole switch, conforming to
standards with a minimum open contact gap of 3 mm is to be installed by an authorized
tradesman in an easily accessible location. If the extractor hood is fitted with a standard
connector plug, connect this to an easily accessible standard socket.
Mounting the carbon filter
You will find the mounting instructions for the carbon filter in its packaging. To mount the
carbon filter, remove the grease filter(s), fit the carbon filter according to its mounting
instructions and refit the grease filter(s).
