For Your Safety

Carefully read the following important information regarding installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information booklet accessible for future reference.
The appliance has been designed for use in a Ducted installation, see Fig.1.

Safety Precautions

Take care when the Range Hood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on natural ventilation as the Range Hood removes air from the room, which a burner or fireplace may need for combustion.
Provide adequate ventilation for safe operation of the Range Hood. Follow any local laws that apply to external air evacuation.
Before connecting to the electricity network:
Look at the data plate (located inside the appliance) to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to the available power supply and the power outlet is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
If the appliance is used intensively for a long period of time, you may need to opening a window to improve airflow.

For Your Safety

WARNINGS!

• Do not check the status of the filters while the Range Hood is operating.
• Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after use.
• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
• Do not flambé under the Range Hood.
• Avoid free flame, as it is damaging to the filters and can cause fire hazard.
• Constantly check food frying, overheated oil may become a fire hazard.
• Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.
• This appliance 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 appliance.
• There shall be adequate ventilation in the room when the Range Hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
• WARNING: DO NOT penetrate any screws into the range hood as this may result in electrical hazards.
• WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
• 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.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• The minimum distance between the cooktop hob and the lowest part of the range hood shall be at least 60cm. If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.
• Regulation concerning the discharge of air has to be fulfilled.
• Rangehoods 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 flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY BREACHING THE ABOVE WARNINGS.

Use and Care

It is recommended to start the Range Hood prior to commencing to cook and leave the Range Hood in operation for 15 minutes after cooking is finished in order to completely eliminate cooking vapours and odours.
To ensure the Range Hood continues to operate effectively, regular maintenance and cleaning is required. Clean the fan and other surfaces of the Range Hood regularly using a cloth moistened with warm water or non abrasive liquid detergent.

Cleaning your rangehood
The proper function of the rangehood requires regular maintenance operations.
The anti-grease filters capture the grease particles suspended in the air, and are therefore subject to clogging according to the frequency of the use of the appliance.
In order to prevent fire hazard, it is recommendable to clean the filter at a minimum of every 2 months by carrying out the following instructions:
– Remove the filters from the cooker hood and wash them in a solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving to soak.
– Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
– The filters may also be washed in the dishwasher on a hot wash with no detergent.
The aluminum panels may alter in color after several washes. This is not cause for customer complaint nor replacement of panels. Clean the fan and other surfaces of the cooker hood regularly using a cloth moistened with denatured alcohol or non abrasive liquid detergent.
Keep motor and other parts free from water as this will cause damage to the appliance.
Troubleshooting

Check that the main switch/circuit
breaker/safety switch is turned on
Poor airflow| Aluminum grease filters clogged| Clean the filters and replace when dry
Motor running but no air flow| Butterfly valve jammed| Contact service department
Motor turns off after a few minutes| High temperature safety device activated| The kitchen is not sufficiently ventilated
