Air Extraction/Recirculation

• Most Gaggenau ventilator hoods can be used both for air extraction and recirculation. In the extraction function, cooking fumes are released outside either directly or via a ventilation duct. In the recirculation function, a built-in active charcoal filter absorbs kitchen steam. In both cases the air, which is saturated with grease and odor particles, first passes through a grease filter. This prevents the inside of the hood and the exhaust air ducts from becoming coated with deposits. The circulating air version, in which no air is released outside, absorbs odor particles with an additional, active charcoal filter. This needs replacing about twice a year – a simple operation with all Gaggenau ventilation appliances.

Interval Ventilation

• When this feature is activated, the extractor hood automatically switches to the pre-selected power setting for five minutes during each hour, allowing the room to be regularly supplied with fresh air, even when vacated for long periods. It is also ideal when the room needs plenty of ventilation overnight, for example after a big party in the kitchen.

Filter Saturation Indicator

• The filter saturation indicator lets you know as soon as the accumulated grease and residues on the filter begin to impair the efficiency of your ventilation hood. When the indicator light on the control panel begins to flash, simply remove the practical stainless steel filter and put it in the dishwasher.

Soft-Light

• The soft-light illumination of the cooking zones automatically goes on and off gradually, and can be dimmed manually from bright illumination of the cooking zones to atmospheric background lighting.
