deemed to be improper. Improper use
of activated carbon filters in extraction
hoods may pose a danger to persons
and damage property.
The metal filter of the hood must be
cleaned every 14 days at the latest. The
activated carbon filter in contrast must
be regenerated every 2-3 months. It can
be regenerated in a normal oven at a
temperature of 200ºC for around 1-2
hours (depending on the degree of con-
tamination and period of usage).
Caution: The spontaneous combustion
temperature is around 300-350ºC!
Caution: Never use the pyrolysis func-
tion! Do not use temperatures above
200ºC!
The activated carbon filter must be re-
placed after a usage period of around 3-
4 years. You can buy activated carbon
filters from GUTMANN at an economical
price thanks to the recycling system.
Transport, unpacking, installation
Condensation may occur if the appli-
ance is brought into the installation site
from a cold environment. Please wait
until the appliance has adjusted to the
temperature and is completely dry be-
fore operating it. The acclimatization
period depends on the temperature
difference and the type and design of
the appliance. However, it should be at
least 12 hours.
Connecting the power supply
Check that the rated voltage indicated
on the appliance matches the mains
voltage in your area. Connection to the
incorrect voltage will damage or destroy
the appliance.
Before switching on the appliance,
check that all cables and lines are prop-
erly fitted and undamaged. Make sure in
particular that there are no kinks in the
cables, that they are not pulled too
tightly around corners and that no ob-
jects are resting on them. Also make
sure that all plug connections are se-
curely inserted. Faulty shielding or wir-
ing poses a health hazard (electric
shock) and can destroy other appli-
ances. Appliances with mains plugs are
fitted with a safety-tested mains cable
for the respective country of use and
may only be connected to a correctly
earthed safety socket. Otherwise, there
is a risk of electric shock. Make sure
that the socket on the appliance or the
domestic safety socket is easily accessi-
ble so that the mains cable can be un-
plugged from the socket in an emer-
gency or during servicing and mainte-
nance work.
Danger of electric shock!
Do not clean the hood with a steam
cleaner or water pressure cleaner. The
hood must be disconnected from the
power supply prior to cleaning.
