Use of the hood
It is advisable to switch on the extractor hood a
few minutes before starting cooking and then
to leave it running for approximately 5 minutes
afterwards to ensure that all odours are
extracted.
Use the slow speed in normal conditions and
the fast speed with heavy fumes or odours.

B – On button and motor speed selection
button 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - . . . .

D – Intensive speed LED
G – Intensive speed ON switch
This speed should be used when the
concentration of cooking fumes or odours
is particularly strong (for example when
frying, cooking fish etc.). The fast speed
will run for about 5 minutes and then
return to the speed previously set
automatically (1, 2 or 3), or switch off if no
speed was selected. To turn off the fast
speed, before the end of the 5 minutes,
press button A or button B.
H – OFF lamp button
I – ON lamp button
If the hood fails to operate correctly, briefly
disconnect it from the mains power supply for
almost 5 sec. by pulling out the plug. Then plug
it in again and try once more before contacting
the Technical Assistance Service.
Maintenance
Before performing any maintenance operation,
isolate the hood from the electrical supply by
switching off at the connector and removing the
connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through
a plug and socket, then the plug must be
removed from the socket.
Metal grease filter
This holds back suspended grease parti-
cles.
The metal grease filter lasts forever and must
be washed either by hand or in the dishwasher
(65°C) with suitable detergents.
Let the metal filter dry without damaging it
before putting it back into place.
ìThe metal grease filters must be washed at
least once a month and anyhow whenever the
metal grease filter saturation led (Speed 2
LED) indicates the saturation of the filter.
This LED warns you when the metal grease
filter needs to be cleaned.
This LED flashes to warn you that the metal
grease filters must be cleaned.
Generally, these must be cleaned after 40
hours of use.
Once the grease filters have been cleaned,
press button A and button H at the same time
for about two seconds until you hear the acoustic
signal (beep): the grease filter saturation led F
will now stop flashing.
To remove the metal grease filter, push the
filter handle towards the centre and then
downwards (Fig. 2).
Carry out the above steps in reverse order to
put the filters back after having washed them.
Carbon filter
(“recirculation mode only”, see next pages)
The carbon filter cannot be washed nor
regenerated.
The carbon filter should be replaced every 6
months under normal use and anyhow
whenever the carbon filter saturation led
indicates the saturation of the filter.
This LED indicates carbon filter needs to be
replaced.
This led flashes to warn you that the carbon
filter must be replaced.
This must be done after approximately 160
hours of use.
