Warning and safety instructions
Before installation and before using the appliance for the first time read these operating instructions care- fully to avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance.
The appliance is intended for do- mestic use only.
Do not let small children play with the extractor or its controls.
This extractor meets all statutory safety requirements.
The electrical safety of this ap- pliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement is met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re- sponsible for damage caused by the lack or inadequacy of an effective grounding system.
Installation and repairs should only be performed by qualified and
trained personnel. Repairs by unquali- fied personnel could be dangerous.
Do not connect the appliance to the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the ap- pliance.
Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by removing the fuse
or tripping the circuit breaker. Grasp the plug, not the cord, when unplugg- ing from the wall.
Do not use an open flame beside the extractor. When turned on, the extractor could draw flames into the fil- ter. Grease particles trapped in the fil-
ter will then present a fire hazard.
When the extractor is installed beside a gas cooktop, ensure that
the burners being used are always covered by a saucepan or pot. Heat given off by the flames could otherwise damage the extractor.
