The air is sucked through the grease
filter and then blown via the vent hose
to the vent duct and out into the
atmosphere.
As opposed to an ordinary extractor,
the worktop extractor is placed next to
the cooker. The worktop extractor can
be adjusted to two heights, the lower
and upper positions. For each height
there are two suction speeds to choose
from. It is always possible to select a
suitable height and suction speed
depending on what you fry and cook.
In addition to height and extraction
speed you can select extraction
direction. The worktop extractor can
be set to suck equally from the right
and left or to suck only from the right
or the left.
When the worktop extractor is
installed together with a gas
hob, the worktop extractor
must only be load in the upper
position. See the “installation”
section.

Pilot light
The pilot light is located on the front
of the product. The pilot light comes
on when the product is switched on
and extinguishes when the product is
switched off.
The extraction capacity of the
worktop extractor
The extraction capacity is 370m³/h at
the high extraction speed and 211m³/h
at the low extraction speed.
The extraction capacity of the worktop
extractor is reduced with every bend of
the vent hose/duct.
The capacity is also reduced in
proportion to any increase in the length
of the vent hose/duct. The less
resistance the exhaust air meets, the
better the extraction capacity and the
less noise from the worktop extractor.
If an installation has a 6 m long vent
hose (with a diameter of 125 mm) and
two 90˚ bends, the extraction capacity
will become max. 330 m³/h and min
190m3/h.

speeds of the worktop extractor as
follows:
Worktop extractor disconnected
Worktop extractor in lower
position.
When the worktop
extractor is installed
together with a gas hob, the
worktop extractor must

Use the worktop extractor
correctly
To have the worktop extractor
working correctly, the kitchen
windows should be kept closed to
lower the pressure in the room.
On the other hand to obtain maximum
effect a window should be open in
another room.
10
Cleaning and maintenance
Before carrying out any
maintenance or cleaning isolate
the extractor from the mains
supply.
The extractor must be kept
clean as build up of grease or fat
can be a fire hazard
The splashguard can be removed to make
it easier to clean the surface.
What to do:
1. Hold the splashguard as shown
in the diagram
2. Lift the splashguard straight up
3. Clean the top surface as
described in “cleaning the steel
surface”
Be aware of the two retaining
pegs, which are sharp.
4. Replace the splashguard in
position ENSURE that it is
fitted the correct way round.
Never use hard or sharp
implements to lift off the
splashguard.
Do not wash the splashguard
in a dishwasher.
The hob must not be used
with the splashguard off.
11
Clean the appliance after use with a
soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water, use a small amount of liquid
detergent for stubborn soiling.
Stainless steel parts may become straw
coloured with use, use a proprietary
stainless steel cleaner to remove this
straw discolouration.
Never use metal wool, metal sponges
or other abrasive cleaning agents.
12
To maintain optimum extraction
capacity of the worktop extractor and
to avoid fire hazards, the grease filter
should be cleaned at least once a
month.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the worktop extractor in the
upper extraction position.
2. Lift off the top cabinet. The top
cabinet can be washed in ordinary
washing up liquid or in a
dishwasher.
3. Lift off the black plastic tube – can
be cleaned in the same way as the
top cabinet.
4. Lift off the grease filter – can be
cleaned in the same way as the top
cabinet.
5. To ease cleaning of the plastic tray,
the end pieces can be lifted off and
cleaned in the same way as the top
cabinet.
The worktop extractor must not
be activated when the top
cabinet is not fitted.
13
The worktop extractor can be fitted in
any type of kitchen worktop with a
thickness of between 28 and 40 mm.
Location
It is recommended that you install the
worktop extractor in continuation of
the hob. If two or more hobs are
installed, the worktop extractor should
be placed between the units so that you
can take full advantage of the variable
extraction direction.
Clamping
When the worktop extractor is fitted,
the enclosed clamp should be fitted in
the slot which best fits the thickness of
the kitchen worktops or the worktop
frame. Secure the clamp with a
manual screwdriver.
Dimensions
The hole for the chosen combination
must be cut as a rectangular hole. The
width of the hole is always: 490 mm
for all combinations.
The length of the hole equals the sum
of the external measures of length of
all the units - 20 cm.
Fitting
Minimum distance
to side wall:
150 mm
Minimum distance
to rear wall (non-
flammable material):
50 mm
Reinforcement

14
Fitting reinforcement beams
All 145 mm and 290 mm units come
with a reinforcement beam. A
reinforcement beam must be fitted
between each unit. The beam should
not be screwed onto the worktop, but
be kept in place by the frame section
of the units.

The extraction capacity of the
worktop extractor
The extraction capacity is 370m³/h at
the high extraction speed and 211m³/h
at the low extraction speed.
The extraction capacity of the worktop
extractor is reduced with every bend of
the vent hose/duct.
The capacity is also reduced in
proportion to any increase in the length
of the vent hose/duct. The less
resistance the exhaust air meets, the
better the extraction capacity and the
less noise from the worktop extractor.
If an installation has a 6 m long vent
hose (with a diameter of 125 mm) and
two 90˚ bends, the extraction capacity
will become max. 330 m³/h and min
190m3/h.

regulations.
The work top extractor is supplied with
a connection piece to connect a pipe or
duct with a diameter of 125 mm.
Connection with a square pipe is
possible, but it requires individual
adjustment. The outlet of the extractor
without the connection piece is 159 x
152 x 100 mm.

2, 4, 5 (blue, green, yellow, orange) of
the selector. Also disconnect green
and orange wires from setting 1 of the
micro switch. Do not reconnect these
two wires.
Insert a connecting wire between
settings 1, 2 and 4, 5 of the selector.
The connecting wires are located in the
lower right corner of the selector.
Reconnect blue wire to setting 1 and
yellow wire to setting 4. Now the
