•  During  exhaust  operation,  the  range  hood

removes  air  from  a  room.  If  other  fire  sources
that  require  the  surrounding  air  for  combustion 
are being operated in the same room, (e.g. gas, 
oil  or  coal  heaters),  the  oxygen  they  require  is 
taken  away.  Thus  flames  could  be  suffocated
and  gas  could  leak  out  or  the  fumes  could  be 
drawn back into the room.

•  In  order  to  guarantee  a  safe  operation,  there

should  be  non-closable  openings  in  doors, 
windows to ensure a fresh supply of combustion 
air. This will prevent the combustion fumes from 
being drawn back into the room.

•  When assessing the measures necessary, always

take  the  entire  ventilation  system  of  the  house 
into consideration.

•  Never  secure  the  range  hood  to  a  ventilation

duct,  or  a  room  or  exhaust  gas  chimney!  Do 
not let the air that is removed from the room be 
drawn into a duct where warm air is circulating. 
The extracted air should only be drawn outdoors 
through  a  separate  ventilating  duct  that  is  only 
for the extractor hood.

•  When  in  extraction  mode,  air  in  the  room  is

being removed by the range hood. Please make 
sure that proper ventilation measures are being 
observed. The range hood removes odors from 
room but not steam.

•  There shall be adequate ventilation of the room

when the range hood is used at the same time 
as  appliances  burning  gas  or  other  fuels  (not 
applicable to appliances that only discharge the 
air back into the room).

•  The air must not be discharged into a flue that

is  used  for  exhausting  fumes  from  appliances 
burning  gas  or  other  fuels  (not  applicable  to 
appliances that only discharge the air back into 
the room).

•  Recirculated  air:  Kitchen  fumes  are  removed 

and  after  purification  are  fed  back  into  the
room  through  the  upper  ventilation  openings. 
The  purification  takes  place  via  metallic  anti-
grease filter. No wall breakthrough is required for
recirculated air operation.

•  For  the  operation  of  the  range  hood  with 

recirculation  mode  a  recirculator,  model  no.

•  Follow steps 1 to 4 from Fixing range hood to the 

wall (with exhaust ducting) chapter.

•  To  install  the  recirculator  (7),  use  the  template

included in recirculation kit for proper position.

•  Place the recirculator (7) against the upper bracket

(4) by using the upper holes with upper bracket in 
the wall.

•  Fix the recirculator (7) to the wall with 2 sets of long

screws (10) and wall plugs (11) (fig.  ).

•  Attach  the  exhaust  duct  on  the  bottom  of  the

recirculator (7).
