Operating Instructions and Installation Instructions

The cooker hood has an air outlet on the upper side(B2).
Fit element C on it. Fig. 1.
Check the mode switch on the inside (G) and ensure it is in pumping
position A. Fig. 2.
If it is impossible to install an exhaust tube, you can use the cooker hood
in filtration mode.
This means you have to install the carbon filter whose exhaust aperture
is covered with a grille on the front side of the hood, just above the
control panel. Make sure that the mode switch G is in position F. Fig. 3.
Note: The exhaust tube is not supplied. It has to be ordered separately.
Connecting to electrical line.
The line voltage must be the same as indicated on the technical data
label which is on the inside of the cooker hood. If a plug is provided, plug
it into an outlet. Otherwise, install a bipolar switch that adheres to safety
regulations and has the contacts at a distance of at least 3 mm.
Installation:
The distance between the cooker hood and the cooker should be at
least 50 cm with electric cookers and at least 65 cm with gas cookers or
combined electric/gas cookers. The cooker hood can be wall mounted
or installed in a cabinet. If the template H is included, use it to drill the
holes. If not, lean the cooker hood against the wall or the hanging cabi-
net and mark holes where you need them (you will need at least 3 x
8mm diameter holes for wall mounting and at least 4 x 2,5mm diameter
holes for installation in a hanging cabinet. Fig. 4-5.
Installing into a cabinet:
Fasten the cooker hood by the 4 screws M from inside the cabinet. Fig.
4.
Wall mounting:
Insert wall plugs J and two screws K into the two uppermost holes in the
wall, remove the grille and hang the cooker hood by the screws, then
insert the third screw L from inside the cooker hood and fasten all three
screws. Fig. 5.
Caution:
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children
should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play
with the appliance.
Do not use the cooker hood where the grill is not correctly
fixed! The suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same
channel used for fumes discharged by appliances powered
by other than electricity. The environment must always be
adequately aerated when the cooker hood and other
appliances powered by other than electricity are used at the
same time. Flambé cooking with a cooker hood is prohibited.
The use of a free flame is damaging to the filters and may
cause fire accidents, therefore free flame cooking must be
avoided. Frying of foods must be kept under close control
in order to avoid overheated oil catching fire. Carry out fumes
discharging in accordance with the regulations in force by
local laws for safety and technical restrictions.
Operating:
The control panel is on the front of the cooker hood, on its center side,
and allows you to select various power settings and to switch On and
OFF its lamp.
If smoke and vapour concentration is too high, choose a higher setting.
We recommend you turn on the cooker hood 5 minutes before starting
to cook and leave it on for another 15 minutes after you are done cook-
ing.
Maintenance:
Before doing any maintenance work, disconnect the cooker hood.
Grease filter
The cooker hood is fitted with one of the following type of grease filter:
A. The paper filter should be replaced monthly or (if you are using the
filter with the coloured upper side) once the colour becomes visible
through the grille.
B. The metal filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive
detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to
a low temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the metal filter may discolour slightly,
but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
Grease filter maintenance:
1. Disconnect the electrical power supply.
2. Open the extractor grille or remove the self-supporting metal grease
filter (in this last case wash the filter immediately). Fig. 6 (a-b).
3. Hood with paper filter only: remove the device securing the paper
filter. Fig. 7 (e).
4. Remove the dirty grease filter.
5. After the grease filter has been replaced or cleaned (depending on
model), refit the parts in reverse order, making sure the entire extrac-
tion surface is covered.
Carbon filter (filtration mode only)
This filter is neither washable nor renewable. It is used to catch unpleas-
ant smells that develop when cooking. It should be replaced every 4
months.
The carbon filter is not supplied. It has to be ordered separately.
Fitting or removing the carbon filter:
1. Disconnect the electrical power supply.
2. Open the extractor grille or remove the self- supporting grease filter
(depending on model). Fig. 6 (a-b).
3. To access the carbon filter seat, rotate the knobs 90° and open the lid.
Fig. 8 (g).
4. Fit the shaped carbon filter in its default location. Fig. 8 (d).
5. Turn the carbon filter locking knob 90° (check that the filter is secured,
otherwise rotate it further). Fig. 8 (e).
6. Close the carbon filter compartment
7. Refit the extractor grille or grease filter.
To remove the carbon filter, proceed in reverse order.
Changing the lightbulb:
1. Disconnect the electrical power supply.
2. Open the extractor grille or remove the self- supporting grease filter
(depending on model). Fig. 6 (a-b).
3. Unscrew the broken lightbulb and replace it with an oval lightbulb with
maximum power 40W (E14).
If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamp are fitted properly
into its housing before you call for technical assistance.
Cleaning:
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly on the outside as well as
inside. Use a damp cloth with neutral liquid cleaners. Do not use abrasive
cleaners. Always disconnect the hood before cleaning.
Fire hazard is increased if you do not adhere to the instructions for clean-
ing the cooker hood and replacing and cleaning the filter.
