Children may put packaging material over their heads or wrap themselves up in it and suffocate.

► Keep packaging material away from children.

► Do not let children play with packaging material.

Children may breathe in or swallow small parts, causing them to suffocate.

► Keep small parts away from children.

► Do not let children play with small parts.

Risk of poisoning from flue gases being drawn back in. Room-air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-operated heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open. With the extractor hood switched on, air is extracted from the kitchen and adjacent rooms. Without an adequate supply of air, the air pressure falls below atmospheric pressure. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.

► Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as a room-air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.

► It is only possible to safely operate the appliance if the pressure in the room in which the heating appliance is installed does not fall below 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved whenever the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means.

► In any case, consult your responsible chimney sweep. They are able to assess the house’s entire ventilation setup and will suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.

► Unrestricted operation is possible if the appliance is operated exclusively in circulating-air mode.

Risk of burns:

The accessible parts of the appliance become hot during operation.

Air extraction mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. If the exhaust air is to be conveyed into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, you must obtain the consent of the heating engineer responsible. If the exhaust air is conveyed through the external wall, a telescopic duct should be used.

Air recirculation mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an odour filter, and conveyed back into the room. To bind odours in air recirculation mode, you must install an odour filter. The required accessories are available from specialist retailers, from our after-sales service or from the online shop.
