Appliance description Operating mode
This low air pressure can be obtained,
provided combustion air can escape
through non-lockable openings, e.g. in
doors, windows, air-intake/exhaust-air wall
boxes or by other technical procedures,
such as reciprocal interlocking, etc.
An air-intake/exhaust-air wall box by itself is
no guarantee that the limiting value will not
be exceeded.
Note: When assessing the air pressure, the
entire ventilation system in the house/apart-
ment must be taken into account. If using
cooking appliances, e.g. hob and/or gas
cooker, this rule does not apply.
Government regulations must be observed
for the conveyance of exhaust air.

Operating mode
Exhaust-air mode:
❑ The extractor-hood fan extracts the
kitchen vapours and conveys them
through the grease filter into the
atmosphere.
❑ The grease filter absorbs the solid
particles in the kitchen vapours.
❑ The kitchen is kept almost free of grease
and odours.

If the extractor hood is in exhaust-air
mode and a flue-type heater is running
at the same time (e.g. gas, oil or solid-fuel
heaters, continuous-flow heaters, water
heaters), ensure that the fireplace has an
adequate air supply for combustion.
Safe operation requires that the low air
pressure in the room in which the fireplace
is located does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04
mbar).
