Operating modes
You can use this appliance in the air extraction or the 
recirculation mode.
Air extraction
Note: The extracted air must neither be discharged 
into an operating smoke or waste gas chimney nor into 
a shaft that serves to ventilate rooms where heat-
producing appliances are installed.
The local chimney sweep's consent must be 
obtained if the exhaust air is to be routed to a 
smoke or waste gas chimney that is not in 
operation.
A telescopic wall duct should be used if the 
exhaust air is routed through the outside wall.
Recirculation
Note: You must install an activated charcoal filter to 
bind odors in the recirculation mode. Refer to the 
manual or ask your specialist dealer for details of the 
various options for operating the appliance in the 
recirculation mode. You can obtain the necessary 
accessories from specialist dealers, from our after-
sales service or in the online shop.
Operating the appliance
Note: Switch on the extractor hood when you start 
cooking and switch it off again only several minutes 
after you have finished cooking. This is the most 
effective way of removing the kitchen fumes.
Note: You can operate the extractor hood using both 
control panels.
