Additional Details and Usage

Functions and operation

24h function refreshes the air for about 10 minutes every hour over a 24–hour period at minimum speed and imperceptible noise level.
Time–setting option provides a special setting to run after the end of cooking for a pre–set time and then switch off automatically.
Intensive/turbo setting is available when extra fast extraction is required.
Connection between hob and hood is indicated for Auto–Vent 2.0 (further operational detail not stated in source).

Lighting

The hood features LED lights to illuminate the cooking area or add to the ambience of the kitchen. Lighting efficiency class is A, with lighting efficiency of 34,8 lux/W and average illumination on the cooking surface of 139 lux. A dimmer mode allows adjustment within a colour temperature range of 2700–4000 K.

Filtration and odour reduction

Model has filters to help remove grease from the steam emanating from the pans during cooking.
Charcoal filters are included; extracting through charcoal filters or directly to the exterior lessens strong cooking odours considerably.
Warning lights advise when filters need changing.
Grease filtering efficiency is 64,3 %, grease filtering efficiency class E.

Perimeter extraction panels

The hood uses perimeter extraction panels, which are described as very efficient and aiding noise reduction.

Installation considerations

Minimum distance from gas hob: 650 mm.
Minimum distance from electric hob: 450 mm.
Vent outlet diameter: 150 mm.
