We are convinced that you will have great use and pleasure from your new cooker hood. Before you use the cooker hood we recommend that you read through the whole user manual giving a direct description of the cooker hood and its functions. [. . . ] Save the instruction manual and keep it available at use of the cooker hood Safety instructions At installation and service q The cooker hood is made for normal households with normal cooking. If it is used for other purposes there is a risk of damage which is not covered by the warranty. q All eventual electric installation has to be carried out by a qualified electrician. The installation of the hood should be made by a person with enough knowledge. Installation made otherwise could lead to loss of performance and even injuries and /or damage on properties. q The hood cannot be connected to flues of other appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity. Please keep to the provisions of official directives regarding the question of fumes discharge. q When the hood is used at the same time as other appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity, provision must be made for an adequate supply of air. Hazard! At use of cooker hood q No food must be cooked flambé underneath the hood. q The use of an unprotected flame is dangerous for the filters and could cause fires. The oil contained in the pan may spontaneously ignite through overheating. q From inside the cupboard, insert the 4 supplied screws and tighten them in the appropriate holes on the appliance. Exhausting mode q Connect the air outlet to the smoke exhaust hose q Open the suction grid (Fig. q Check that the selection lever for evacuation/ recycle is in the position A - external evacuation. 7 A A Recirculation mode (with carbon filter) The air outlets D (Fig. q Check that the selection lever for evacuation/ recycle is in the position : F - recycle (Fig. 9 C Using the hood Speed regulation The hood is provided with two motors with three speeds plus a position for intensive operation. For the best performance, we recommend using the low speeds in normal conditions and the high speeds or intensive in particular cases of strong odour and vapour concentration. We recommend starting up the hood a few minutes before cooking and keeping it running until all the odours have been eliminated. Switch on and off with the left slide switch. Correct ventilation To have the cooker hood working correctly the windows in the kitchen should be closed. In stead a window in an adjacent room should be open. Important to know If the hood is run at the same time as a burner or fireplace that depend on ambient air (for example gas, Diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc. ) be careful, because the hood, when it exhausts the air, removes the ambient air required by the burner or fireplace for combustion. 11 Maintenance Before performing any maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the electricity. Grease filter This serves to hold the grease particles in suspension. The metal filter should be washed every month with warm soapy water or, if possible, in the dishwasher (60°C).
