Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text by alphabet
letters. Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual. All
responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused
by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
Installation
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 60 cm from
the cooking plane for electric cookers and 70cm for gas or mixed
cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance, this must be adhered to.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only.
Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the
chimney flue can be easily removed, in case maintenance is ever
required.
Use
The cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit B for discharging
fumes externally for models including chimney flue C ( Suction
Version - exhaust pipe 13 not supplied).
In the instance where it is not possible to discharge cooking fumes and
vapours externally even if utilising the model with chimney flue C, the
cooker hood may be used in the filter version F by mounting two
active carbon filters E, the fumes and vapours are then recycled via
the upper grill G .
Electrical connection
The electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted on the
label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the electrical plug,
where provided, to the an easily accessible outlet in conformity with
local standards in force.
Where an electrical plug is not provided (for direct connection to
electrical network) place a standards approved bipolar switch with an
aperture distance of not less than 3mm (accessible) from the contacts.
Operation
The cooker hood is provided with a key or pushbutton control panel
situated of the frontal part of the cooker hood, depending on the basis
of the cooker hood type in possession. For proper operation consult
the text below and the relative illustration:
a. ON/OFF lighting
b. OFF motors
c. - d. - e. Minimum suction power (c.), medium (d.), maximum (e.).
f. Operation warning light.
Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours.
It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5
minutes prior to cooking and to leave in operation during cooking and
for another 15 minutes approximately after terminating cooking.
Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is
disconnected from the electrical outlet.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally.
For cleaning use a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents. Avoid abrasive detergents.
Warning:
Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the cooker
hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Therefore we
recommend oserving these instructions.
Anti-grease Filter –
If situated inside the support grill, it may be one of the following types:
Metallic filter must be cleaned once a month, with non abrasive
detergents, by hand or in dishwasher on low temperature and short
cycle.
To obtain access to the grease filter J open the grill K via the hooks
L and free the grill from the stoppers M.
Some models are provided with a metal filter N without support
grill, this filter should be washed as instructions noted for metallic filter
above and is removed from its placing by pushing the handles O
towards the back and sliding the filter N downwards.
When washed in a dish-washer, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
Carbon Filter
(2 pieces – only for filter version)
The active carbon filters E are not washable nor regenerative.
It should be changed every 6 months in normal use.
The active carbon filters capture unpleasant cooking odours.
Apply one on each side covering both grills protecting the motor
propeller, then turn the filter central handles P clockwise.
In order to dismantle turn the central handle P anti-clockwise for each
filter.
Replacing lightbulbs
Remove the anti-grease filter support grill or the anti-grease filter to
attain access to the lightbulb area. Remove the damaged lightbulb
and replace with an incandescent oval bulb max. 40W E14.
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.
