To achieve an optimal efficiency in removing cooking fumes:
☞ Turn the device on 1-2 minutes before you start cooking.
This allows the flow of air to build up, and the fumes are
removed at an early stage.
☞ Avoid cross-currents (e.g. draughts) across the hob.
☞ If only one ring is being used, only open the adjacent
ventilation flap.
☞ Use a lid when cooking with high saucepans or if there is
a lot of steam.
☞ During the cooking process, switch to a power level that
is appropriate for the intensity of the cooking vapours:
y Power level 1 - lowest fan power
y Power level 2 - medium fan power
y Power level 3 - high fan power
☞ If the intensity of the cooking vapours does not subside,
switch to a higher power level.
☞ Switch to the INTENSIVE setting if frying.
☞ Turn on the run-on function when you have finished
cooking.
