Here you can find tips on how to save even more
energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose
of your appliance properly.
Saving energy
During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient
■
supply of air so that the extractor hood can work
efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
Adjust the fan speed to the intensity of the cooking
■
fumes. Only use intensive mode where this is
required. A lower fan speed means that less energy
is consumed.
If there are intensive cooking fumes, select a higher
■
fan speed in good time. If cooking fumes have
already spread in the kitchen, the extractor hood
must be operated for longer.
Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require
■
it.
Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
■
Clean and, if required, replace the filter at regular
■
intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the
ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.
