Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in.
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.

Danger of death!
Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in. If installing a ventilation
system in a room with a heat-producing
appliance connected to a chimney/flue, the
electricity supply to the hood must be
equipped with a suitable safety switch.
Risk of injury!
Components inside the appliance may
■
have sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.
The appliance may fall down if it has not

fastening components must be fixed firmly
and securely.
The appliance is heavy. To move the

assembly are dangerous and may lead to
malfunctions. Do not make any changes
to the electrical or mechanical assembly.
Risk of electric shock!
Components inside the appliance may
■
have sharp edges. These may damage
the connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch
the connecting cable during installation.
It must always be possible to disconnect

■
the appliance from the power supply. The
appliance must only be connected to a
protective contact socket that has been
correctly installed. If the plug can no
longer be reached after installation, an
energy-isolating device in the phases must
be provided in the permanent electrical
installation in accordance with the
installation regulations. The permanent
electrical installation must only be wired
by a professional electrician. We
recommend installing a residual-current
circuit breaker (RCCB) in the appliance's
power supply circuit.
Risk of electric shock!
Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs
may only be carried out and damaged
power cables replaced by one of our
trained after-sales technicians. If the
appliance is defective, unplug the appliance
from the mains or switch off the circuit
breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-
sales service.

children. Never allow children to play with
packaging material.
