USING THE UNIT

Front panel

WARNING: The unit is not intended for use by children under 8 or by persons with reduced sensory, physical or mental capabilities, or whose lack of knowledge and experience do not ensure safe operation of the unit.  Such persons can use the unit under supervision, or by following the instructions of someone who is responsible for their safety. Do not let children play with the unit or to clean or maintain it without supervision.

MAINTENANCE

• Keep the cooker hood clean. Wipe outer surfaces regularly with water containing a small amount of a mild detergent. Clean off any grease stains immediately. Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents or tools.
• Keep the grease filter clean to ensure an adequate extract air flow. The grease filter must be washed with warm water and detergent by hand or in a dishwasher at least 1-2 times a month.

Removing and mounting the grease filter

• Open the quick connectors of the bottom plate of the cooker hood by turning (Figure 1).
• Turn the bottom plate down.
• Remove the grease filter from its holder (Figure 2).

WARNING: If the ventilation of the apartment is turned off, the entry of fresh replacement air into the apartment and the extraction of used air from the apartment are prevented. Impurities, such as carbon dioxide, humidity, smells, formaldehyde, dust, and radon, which come from people, structures, and the soil will quickly contaminate the room air and are harmful to the health of people. Excessive humidity may damage the structures of the building and result in mould and fungal growth. For this reason, building regulations require that ventilation be turned on at all times and that its efficiency is adjusted based on the needs of the user.

Replacing the lamp

• Remove the protective glass of the lamp by moving it to the left (Figure 3).
• Remove the lamp by pulling it to the left (figure 4).
• Lamp type: G23 LED.

CAUTION

• Neglecting the cleaning of the grease filter can cause a fire hazard.
• The outer surfaces of the hood can become hot when the cooker or the oven is turned on.
• Flaming is forbidden underneath the cooker hood.
• Always follow the instructions provided on adjusting the efficiency of ventilation.
• Enable a sufficient supply air flow into the room if the cooker hood and non-electric devices are used simultaneously.

WARNING: A G23 PL lamp will cause damage!

INSTALLATION

Use the mounting accessories included in the package to fasten the cooker hood in place.

1. Shorten the extract air duct to be connected to the hood (125 mm spiral duct) to the correct length.
2. Where required, install a Vallox cover strip, for instance, (2142400 cover strip 500 or 2142500 cover strip 600) to cover the opening in the rear wall.
3. Lift the hood so that it is in contact with the duct.
4. Fasten the cooker hood with the mounting brackets or by other means, so that the hood is firmly in place and cannot move (figures 1, 2 and 3). The mounting screws included in the accessory bag are suited to walls made of wood, chipboard, cement or stone. Use appropriate mounting devices for other materials.
5. Check the tightness of the extract air duct system.
6. Plug the cooker hood into the mains. Ensure that the plug can be unplugged, where required.

Electrical connection

CAUTION

• The cooker hood must not be connected to a flue that is used for removing combustion gases (e.g. from a wood- or gas-burning fireplace, cooker, or stove).
• The cooker hood must not be fastened through the side panels to the cabinets.
• Fans that are controlled through the cooker hood must have an engine cover and their maximum power must not exceed 340 W.
• Regulations on leading extraction air outdoors must be observed.

CAUTION: The minimum distance of the bottom edge of the grease filter to an electric cooker is 500 mm, and to a gas cooker 650 mm.
