• The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam. • Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired cookers it is essential to avoid open flames. • Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/ cooker under careful control. • The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating. • The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty. • It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire. • Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood. • Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off the automatic circuit breaker). • It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause grease deposits to build up, resulting in a fire hazard. • The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. • Older children must be supervised if using the appliance. • Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. • WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a hose having preferably the same diameter as the outlet hole. Attention: The hose is not supplied and must be purchased separately. • When installing the hood, make sure you observe the following minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces: electric cookers 400 mm gas cookers 650 mm If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to. • The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms. • The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are installed. • The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down by the relevant local authorities. • When the unit is used in extraction mode, a sufficiently large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approxi- mately the same as the outlet hole. • National and regional building regulations impose a number of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the same room. • Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approxi- mately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being created during operation of the hood. • If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or building inspector’s office. • Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is “outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor hood. • If the hood is used in its recirculation mode, it will operate simply and safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the aforementioned measures. • When the hood is used in its extraction mode, the following rules must be followed to obtain optimal operation: - short and straight outlet hose - keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum

follow a gentle curve. - keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same diameter as the outlet hole). - the length should be no more than: 3 metres with one 90° bend 2 metres with two 90° bends Bends of more than 90° will reduce the efficiency of the hood and reduce the airflow. • Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.

• The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam. • The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with a recirculation mode by fitting a charcoal filter. Extraction mode • In this mode fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose connected to the coupling ring A. Fig. 1. • In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole. Recirculation mode • The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen. • You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation mode. (See Special Accessories). A Fig. 1

and a high speed when odours are more concentrated. Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking. The hood should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have disappeared. Speed control The extractor fan speed can be adjusted using the pull-out glass visor (Fig. 2). When the glass visor is in position (A), the light turns on. When the adjuster reaches position (B), the hood motor starts at low speed, then the speed increases gradually as the panel is pulled out. Fig. 2


• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work. Metal grease filter • The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal re-circulation function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. Removing the metal grease filter • First, push the metal grease filter stop backwards, then extract the filter, pulling downwards. Fig. 4. Hand washing Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease- loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. Dishwasher Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance. • Clean the inner housing using a hand hot solution only(never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes). Fig. 3

recirculation mode. • To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (available from your local Service Force Centre). • Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated. With normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month (when using the hood 2,5 hours per day,on avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest tempera- ture (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of 100º C. After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced. • Fitting – Fig. 4. Apply the mat to the back of the fats filter. Fix with the metal stops. These are to be blocked at the ends on the holes on the sides of the fats filter frame. • To remove proceed in the reverse order. • Always specify the hood model code number and serial number when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the rating plate located on the inside of the unit. • The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local Service Force Centre. Fig. 4

the filters will cause a fire hazard. You are therefore strongly recommended to follow these instructions. • The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations. Changing the light bulbs • Disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply. • Remove the lamp cover carefully, use a screw driver as a lever. Fig. 5. • Replace the old bulb with a new one of the same type. • Refit the lamp cover. • If the light does not come on, make sure the bulb has been inserted in correctly before contacting your local Service Force Centre. Fig. 5

• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a solution of water and mild washing up liquid. • Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products or products containing bleach. . • Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid. • Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth and mild washing up liquid. • It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard. Special accessories Charcoal filter + 4 Metal stops TYPE 38

Safety warnings for the electrician Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check that the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the mains power supply available. Appliances fitted with a plug can be connected to any standard power socket within easy access. Should it be necessary to provide a fixed connection, the hood must only be installed by an electrician authorised by the local electricity board. When installing, an omnipolar disconnector with a distance of at least 3 mm between contacts must be provided. Fixed connection of the appliance must only be carried out by an authorised electrician. Electrical connection for UK only Safety warnings for the electrician Connect the hood to the mains supply via a double pole switch which has 3 mm minimum separation between the contacts. The switch must be accessible at all times. The following is valid in the United Kingdom only: - the wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol ( ), or coloured green or green and yellow; - the wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black, - - the wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

Install the supplied spacer before installing the hood. Insert the spacer into the hood from the back. Adjust the spacer so that the depth of the hood corresponds to the depth of the wall unit (including the door). Fix the spacer with two screws. Fig. 6. Fig. 6

The locking screws must be in place (x 2). If this is not the case, the hood could drop. 1. Trace a line using the installation template to guide you (Fig. 7.1.). Saw along this line and cut a groove at the base of the top part of the cabinet. 2. Measure the thickness of the cabinet walls (Fig. 7.2.). The most common wall thicknesses are 16 and 19 mm. If the thickness is any different, choose the closest thickness. 3. Install the suspension bars (Fig. 7.2.) on the installation template. The drawings illustrate the left-hand side of the cabinet. Fig. A for 16 mm cabinets and fig. B for 19 mm cabinets. 4. Push the installation template against the side of the cabinet and secure the fastening bars with screws (Fig. 7.3.). 5. Turn the suspension bar by half a turn when it is installed on the right-hand side of the cabinet. 6. Raise the hood and insert the hooks in the special slots. 7. Push the hood against the wall. Check that all the hooks are correctly inserted in the slots. 8. Install the locking screw (Fig.7.4.). Fig. 7.1 Fig. 7.2 Fig. 7.3 Fig. 7.4
   
 


The locking screws must be in place (x 2). If this is not the case, the hood could drop. If the hood is to be installed in such a way that the top edge of the front panel is aligned with the base of the cabinet (Fig. 8.1.), follow the instructions provided for "Installing the hood in a cabinet" with 16 mm walls, points 3-8. If the hood is to be installed at a height above that of the cabinet base: 1. Use the installation template to trace two vertical lines on either side (Fig. 8.2.). 2. Measure the height at which the hood must be installed. 3. Install the suspension bars (Fig. 8.3.). The drawing illustrates the left-hand side. The right-hand side is the exact opposite. 4. Raise the hood and insert the hooks in the special slots. 5. Push the hood against the wall. Check that all the hooks are correctly inserted in the slots. 6. Install the locking screw (see "Installing the hood in a cabinet",Fig. 7.4.).
 

This is not applicable when the hood is used in re-circulation mode. The hood can be fitted with a cold air inlet (Fig. 9). The cold air inlet consists of two valves fitted inside the hood flue duct. If the hood is the only ventilation system in the kitchen, the extremity of the valves leading to the outside must be cut off and removed. Bend the valves slightly so that the pins fit into the slots provided in the hood flue duct. Make sure the criss-cross side of the valves is facing upwards. Push each valve with a pencil or similar object; the valves should open without any resistance. In the event of friction, make sure each valve has not been installed upside down and that none of the pins have slipped out of their slot.

Only applicable for operation in re-circulation mode. Install the LONG LIFE carbon filter at the back of the grease filters. The LONG LIFE carbon filter has been produced to reduce/filter cooking smells as much as possible. An opening must be made underneath or on the front of the cabinet (min. 100 cm²) where the hood is installed, so that the filtered air can circulate freely and return to the kitchen. Fitting a ducting kit - Fig. 10 Extend the ducting, without stretching it. A duct that is too long or not straight enough could cut down hood efficiency by up to fifty percent. Shorten the duct if it is too long and make sure it is as straight as possible. A complete ducting kit is sold separately as an optional extra. The flue duct (A) fits over the hood flue connection ring (B) and is kept securely in place by a collar. Make sure the duct is as straight as possible and that it does not impede the movement of the valves in any way. The duct is connected to the duct outlet by the metal connection ring plate (C), supplied in the kit.
