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.
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 A- exhaust pipe 13A 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
(depending on the model the grill may be directly placed on
the chimney flue or via the mounting of two small grills 16F).
If in possession of a model with grill placed on chimney flue
then two H extensions must be placed on the deflector 13F.
The models provided with small dome D may only be used
in the filter version F.
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 (where present).
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
Metallic filter must be cleaned once a month, with non
abrasive detergents, by hand or in dishwasher on low
temperature and short cycle.
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.
If the cooker-hood comes with a halogen light, take off its protection
by unscrewing (Z1) or by removing it (Z2 lifting with a small flat edged
screwdriver). Remove the damaged bulb and substitute it with a max
20W halogen bulb (G4).
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.
