Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.
2.1 Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the
outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided). Connect the hood
and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet
(connection flange). Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic
increase in noise. Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon liter, then it must be
removed.
2.2 Filter version
In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the steam of
cooking outside, the hood in the lter version can be used mounting the F
deflector on the flue and one or more carbon filters (on the basis of the
model possessed). The fumes and steam are recycled into the kitchen through
upper grill H.
Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon liter, then it must be
ordered and mounted.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be
connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral suction unit.
Installation
Fig. 3
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment
on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65 cm
from electric, gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for
the hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
3.1 Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate
situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket
in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area,
after installation.
If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not
located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch
in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the
mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance
with installation instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and
checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is
correctly assembled.
Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by the authorised
service assistance centre or similar qualified person.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
Operation
The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights. 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.
Cleaning and maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
Clean using ONLY the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT
CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE
ALCOHOL!
6.1.1 Grease filter
Traps cooking grease particles.
The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive
detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low
temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter
may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. To
remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle. Fig. 1
6.1.2 Charcoal filter (filter version only)
Fig. 2
It absorbs unpleasant odor rs caused by cooking. The saturation of the
charcoal liter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type
of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four
mounts. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated. Remove the
grease filters. Fit the charcoal filters over the motor. Align the pins R on
the cowl with the slots S, then turn the filter clockwise until it locks in
place. Reverse the above procedure to remove the
charcoal filters. Refit the grease filters.
6.2 Maintenance
6.2.1 Replacing lamps
Fig. 1
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity.
Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.
Replace the old light bulb with the one of the same type as specified in the
feature label or near the light lamp on the hood. Remove cover A to access the
lamp housing A.
If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into
their housings before you call for technical assistance.
