Safety warnings
For the User
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.
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.
For the Installer
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 150mm diameter
hose.
Should there already be a pipe with a diameter of 125mm that ducts to the outside
through the wall or roof, it is possible to use the 150/125 mm reduction flange
provided. In this case the hood will be slightly noisier.
When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum
distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers 500 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
coal and oil cookers 700 mm min.
The hood can be installed above these heights but for optimum performance it should
be installed at the distance quoted for the appropriate heat source.
