INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Preliminary recommendations

DANGER: Do not prepare flambé dishes under the cooker hood. The flames could destroy the hood or cause a kitchen fire.

DANGER: Never leave the pan unattended when frying because the hot fat may catch fire.

CAUTION: The exhaust duct must not be made of or contain any flammable materials.

WARNING: Disconnect the electrical power supply from the hood by unplugging the power cord or switching off the main circuit breaker before starting cleaning or maintenance work.

WARNING: The air drawn in by the hood must not be exhausted through a stove flue pipe or the exhaust ducts of any other non-electrical appliances.

WARNING: Regular maintenance will ensure good operation and optimal performance of your cooker hood.

WARNING: Make sure the room is properly ventilated.

WARNING: Clean surfaces regularly to remove any built-up dirt.

WARNING: Clean or replace the filter regularly.

WARNING: Make sure the hood has not been damaged in transport.

WARNING: Installation, electrical connection and hood duct connections must be carried out by a qualified professional in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the regulations in force.

Using the hood

Safety instructions for use

DANGER: No other operations producing flames are permitted. Open flames could damage the filter or other parts of the appliance or even cause a fire.

CAUTION: If the hood is installed over a gas hob, do not switch on the gas rings without cooking pots. In the presence of open flames, parts of the appliance may be damaged by the resulting excessively high temperatures.

CAUTION: Flambé cooking under the cooker hood is not permitted due to the risk of fire. The flames resulting from flambé cooking could ignite the fat accumulated in the filter.

CAUTION: When frying or cooking with oil and fat under the hood supervise the work constantly to avoid the risk of fire. The risk of spontaneous combustion increases when the same cooking oil is reused repeatedly.

WARNING: When the hood is in operation the grease filters must always be fitted, otherwise fat laden fumes will accumulate in the hood and in the air exhaust  system.

Air extraction mode

The air is expelled to the exterior through the exhaust air duct. For this reason, the room must be equipped with an air exhaust duct leading to the outside of the building.

WARNING: If the hood operates in extraction mode and there are combustion systems in operation (e.g. a solid fuel stove), the room in which the appliance is installed must be supplied with a sufficient flow rate of fresh air at all times. Always seek the advice of a qualified technician.

WARNING: If a permanently installed air exhaust duct or flexible air extraction duct are not available, the hood must be operated in recirculation mode.

Recirculation mode
The air drawn in by the hood is filtered through a charcoal filter (also called an activated carbon filter)  and then returned to the room. The charcoal filter removes cooking odours from the air. The filtered air is returned to the kitchen through the side or top air vents. If the hood is used inrecirculation mode, simultaneous operation of a fireplace is of no concern in relation to air quality

NOTE: Switch the appliance on a few minutes before you start cooking.

Leave the fan running for 5-10 minutes once you have finished cooking, on both the extraction version and the recirculation version. This precaution removes residual vapour and odours from the air in the kitchen.

  • For improved performance of the hood, remove the vapour collector (if present).
  • Adjust the fan speed in accordance with the quantity of fumes or vapour to be removed.
  • Only switch the hood off about 5-10 minutes after you finish cooking.
  • Replace the vapour collector (if present).

Preliminary operations

Safety instructions for installation
WARNING: Install the appliances only in a suitable location.

WARNING: Check the robustness and load-bearing capacity of the wall/ceiling.

WARNING: Check the paths followed by power cables etc. in the walls or ceiling to ensure you do not drill into them.

WARNING: Check the condition and load capacity of the electrical system.

WARNING: The appliance must be installed by a specialised technician.

When installing the hood, comply strictly with the minimum distances specified between the hob and the hood (refer to “Installation details”) and follow the numbering of the work steps and the supplementary instructions. Cooking vapours are extracted through an air exhaust duct attached to the connecting ring.The diameter of the air exhaust duct must match the diameter of the connecting ring. If a V-flap is used or supplied, make sure it can open and close freely once the exhaust duct has been fitted. The cooker hood can be equipped with top and rear extraction openings. The hood is factory supplied for extraction type operation. Extraction openings that are not required are equipped with a plastic cover. The cover can be easily removed by turning it counter-clockwise.

Installation details

Minimum distance from the lower edge of the hood cabinet:

Induction hobs 65 cm
Gas hobs 75 cm

WARNING: Do not connect the appliance to the mains until it has been installed correctly.

Use of the hood in the extraction version
If the cooker hood is factory equipped with a charcoal filter, the latter must be removed. The charcoal filter is used only when the extractor hood is used in recirculation mode.

Use of the hood in recirculation mode
To use the appliance as a recirculation hood, the activated carbon filter(s) must be fitted on the fan motor before using the hood. An activated carbon filter or filters are included with some models. Otherwise, you will need to purchase an activated carbon filter or filters from your cooker hoods supplier/dealer.

Electrical hook-up

WARNING: Before connecting the hood, make sure the voltage (V) shown on the nameplate is the same as the mains voltage available in your home.

WARNING: Do not install the appliance if the nameplate values do not match the available supply voltage. The nameplate is located inside the hood, behind the grease filter.

Fitting the charcoal filter
The instructions for installing the charcoal filter are supplied in the charcoal filter pack. To install the charcoal filter, remove the grease filter(s), then install the charcoal filter in compliance with the assembly instructions, and refit the grease filter(s).

Air exhaust duct
The air exhaust duct is not supplied.

A – Air exhausted to outside the building
Air exhaust

B – Air outlet via an air duct
Air outlet

The exhaust duct should be as short and straight as possible. To avoid noisy operation or reduced air extraction capacity, the air exhaust duct must be at least 120 mm in diameter. Use / make wide radius bends. Tight radius bends reduce the hood extraction capacity. Use only smooth ducts or flexible ducts in non-flammable material for the exhaust air duct.

If the exhaust air duct follows a horizontal path, maintain a minimum downward slope of 1 cm per metre or 2° inclination angle towards the outside. Otherwise, condensate could trickle back into the cooker hood motor.
Exhaust air duct

If the exhaust air is routed to an exhaust air flue, the end of the inlet fitting must be oriented in the direction of the airflow. If the exhaust air duct is installed through rooms at low temperature, on wall brackets, etc., a significant temperature drop may occur in the single sections of tubing, with sweating or condensate production. For this reason, the air exhaust duct must be insulated. In some cases a condensate trap (available from the main construction materials suppliers) should be installed in addition to adequate insulation.

MAINTENANCE

Cleaning and care
Before carrying out any installation, maintenance, or cleaning tasks, disconnect the hood from the electrical supply using one of these methods:

  • Unplug the appliance power cord.
  • Disconnect the electricity supply at the main circuit breaker

DANGER: Failure to comply with the maintenance and cleaning instructions can cause a risk of fire due to the accumulation of cooking fat.

DANGER: The grease filters of your appliance must be cleaned or replaced at regular intervals. Filters saturated with grease can easily catch fire and may also give off odours.

WARNING: Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooker hood.

WARNING: Do not use detergents containing alcohol to clean appliances with a matt black finish. These types of detergents can cause discolouration.

WARNING: Grease filters clogged with particles of dirt can seriously impair operation of the appliance.

WARNING: When cleaning the controls area, take care to prevent water from penetrating into electrical and electronic parts.

Replacing the grease filter

Metal grease filters
Metal grease filters do not require replacement when they are excessively saturated and are instead washed once a month by hand or in a dishwasher (60 °) (do not use corrosive rinse aids). Allow the filter to dry completely and refit it in the hood carefully.

WARNING: Do not use alkaline detergents for dishwashers (pH values above 7).

Charcoal filters
A – Conventional filters Cannot be washed or regenerated. Charcoal filters must be replaced regularly, at  least once every 3 months or sooner, depending on your cooking habits

B – Washable and regenerable charcoal filters Must be washed in a dishwasher once a month, using a normal rinse aid and with an intensive rinse program (at the highest available temperature). Washable and regenerable charcoal filters absorb kitchen odours for a maximum of 3 years if cleaned monthly. After this period, the filter must be replaced with a new item.

WARNING: Washable and regenerable activated carbon filters must be washed separately to avoid the accumulation of food residues which can cause unpleasant odours. After washing, the washable and regenerable charcoal filter must be reactivated.

Generic components
Whenever a grease filter or a charcoal filter is replaced or washed, clean all the exposed lower parts of the hood with a mild anti-grease solvent after removing the filter. For routine cleaning of the exteriorparts of the hood use a soft cloth moistened with alcohol or a mild liquid detergent. Never use abrasive detergents.

Replacing the light bulbs
WARNING: When changing a light bulb, make sure the new bulb is not of higher power than the original.
