SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This manual explains the proper installation and use of your range hood, please read it carefully before using even if you are familiar with the product. The manual should be kept in a safe place for future reference.

Never to do:

  • Do not try to use the hood without the grease filters or if the filters are excessively greasy!
  • Do not install above a cooker with a high level grill.
  • Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated fats or oils might catch fire.
  • Never leave naked flames under the hood.
  • If the hood is damaged, do not attempt to use.
  • Do not flambé under the hood.
  • CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
  • The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the hood. (When the hood is located above a gas  appliance, this distance shall be at least 75 cm)
  • The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors  may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion gases. These gases can  potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a range hood or other cooking fume extractor, the operation of open flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.

Always do:

  • Important! Always switch off the electricity supply at the mains during installation and maintenance such as light bulb replacement.
  • The hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions and all measurements followed.
  • A\l installation work must be carried out by a competent person or qualified electrician.
  • Please dispose of the packing material carefully. Children are vulnerable to it.
  • Pay attention to the sharp edges inside the hood especially during installation and cleaning.
  • Make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than 120 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the hood.
  • Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
  • Warning: Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply circuits must be disconnected.
  • If the voltage rating of the lamp is less than the rated voltage of the appliance, the voltage rating of the lamp shall also be marked on or near the lamp holder.

Always do:

  • Always put lids on pots and pans when cooking on a gas cooker.
  • When in extraction mode, air in the room is being removed by the hood. Please make sure that proper ventilation measures are being observed. The hood removes odors from room but not steam.
  • There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
  • The hood is for domestic use only.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
  • This range hood is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless  they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety
  • Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the hood.
  • This hood can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if  they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the hood in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the hood.  Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

Always do:

  • Caution: The hood and its accessible parts can become hot during operation. Be careful to avoid touching the heating elements. Children younger than 8 years old should stay away unless they are under permanent supervision.
  • There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
  • Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
  • Clean your hood periodically by following the method given in the chapter MAINTENANCE.
  • For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw which are recommended in this instruction manual.

  • Regarding the information about how the hood is to be fixed to its support, please refer to Operation section, the Installation procedures in this manual.
  • Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
  • When the hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity are simultaneously in , operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x  10⁵bar)
  • WARNING: Danger of fire: do not store items on the cooking surfaces.
  • A steam cleaner is not to be used.
  • NEVER try to extinguish a fire with water, but switch off the appliance and then cover flame e.g. with a lid ora fire blanket.

INSTALLATION

If you have an outlet to the outside, your hood can be connected as below picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or non-flammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm)

  1. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.
  2. The hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the cooking plane for best effect. See pic1.
  3. Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it inline. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the highest place of chimney. See pic 2.
  4. Fix the outside chimney bracket on the outside chimney with 2 pcs. ST4*8mm screws, and be sure that the inside chimney can be adjusted the height in it freely. Afterwards, install chimneys on the hood. Lay the expansion pipe to the wall outlet.  See Pic4.
  5. Adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix it with2pcs ST4*8 screws. After adjusting the position, fix the body with safety screw.
    Note: The two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with a diameter of 6mm.See Pic 4&5.

HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION

The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:

  • Keep expansion pipe short and straight.
  • Do not reduce the size or restrict the expansion pipe.
  • When using the expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled taut to minimize pressure loss.
  • Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise levels of the hood.
  • Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
  • Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being used for any other appliance ,such as warmer tube, gas tube , hot wind tube.
  • The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120°; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial  point and should be led to an outer wall.
  • After the installation ,make sure that the hood is level to avoid grease collection at on end.
  • Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.

WARNING: | > For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screws which are recommended in this instruction  manual.

Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

GENERAL
Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out when the hood is cold especially when cleaning. Avoid leaving alkaline or acid substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces.
STAINLESS STEEL
The stainless steel must be cleaned regularly (e.g. weekly) to ensure a long life expectancy. Dry with a clean soft cloth. A specialized stainless steel cleaning fluid may be used.
NOTE:
Ensure that wiping is done along with the grain of the stainless steel to prevent any unsightly crisscross scratching patterns from appearing.
CONTROL PANEL SURFACE
The inlay control panel can be cleaned using warm soapy water. Ensure the cloth is clean and well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry soft cloth to remove any excess moisture left after cleaning.
