Unauthorized Modifications

Unauthorised modifications can cause the appliance to pose risks. Do not conduct any modifications to the appliance.

Cleaning & Maintenance

The device must be cleaned regularly. Dirt can lead to damage or the buildup of odors. (See “Cleaning and maintenance” section).

• Always clean the appliance exactly as indicated in the operating instructions.

• Always ensure the appliance is switched off before cleaning or replacing parts.

• Clean the appliance immediately after any food spillage and the filter regularly to keep the appliance working efficiently.

• There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out as described in these operating instructions.

• Make sure no water penetrates inside the device when cleaning. Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

• In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the machine warranty.

• Ensure that all specified vents, openings and airspaces are not blocked.

• All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flam-mable material.

• The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces. (See “Exhaust Air Operation” section). Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

• Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in
  “Installation” and in the “Cleaning & Maintenance” sections of this booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the housing be opened.

• THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY EARTHED. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

• Linärie cannot be held liable for noncompliance with these instructions, resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.

Exhaust Air Operation

The danger of poisoning from recirculated exhaust gases! Do not operate the appliance in extract air mode if it is operated together with a room air- dependent fireplace and sufficient air circulation is not guaranteed.
Room air-dependent fireplaces such as gas, oil, wood or coal heaters, boilers or instantaneous water heaters draw the air from the room and lead it outdoors through an exhaust pipe or chimney. In extract air mode, air is extracted from the kitchen and neighboring rooms. Without a sufficient supply air, negative pressure is created. The heating appliance will be starved of oxygen, impairing combustion. Toxic gases from the chimney or exhaust pipe can be sucked back into the living rooms.

• Make sure that sufficient fresh air supply is guaranteed and that the air can circulate.
• A supply air/exhaust air wall box is not sufficient to ensure compliance with the limit value.

Safe operation is only possible if the negative pressure at the location of the fireplace does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved if the air required for combustion can flow in through non-closable openings in doors and windows in conjunction with a supply air/exhaust air wall box. In any case, have a master chimney sweep advise you and assess the entire ventilation system of the house. If necessary, they can tell you the necessary measures for ventilation.
If the rangehood is used exclusively in recirculation mode, where the air is directed back into the room in which it is located, operating a heating appliance which depends on the room air at the same time is not hazardous.

Correction Use & Operation

• For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.
• Reliable and safe operation of this rangehood can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electric-ity supply.
• Before using the appliance, ensure that all packaging materials are removed from the appliance and make sure that the connection data on the data plate [voltage (V) and frequency (Hz)] indicated on the rangehood correspond to the voltage and frequency of the power supply in your household. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
• DO NOT use the rangehood without the filters in place. This way you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance and hindering its smooth operation. Never use an open flame beneath the rangehood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the rangehood could draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
• DO NOT store or spray flammable materials in the appliance or near this appliance while it is in operation (e.g. aerosols).
• The rangehood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat.
  • When using the rangehood over a gas cooktop, ensure that any burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time.
  • Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
  • Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.
  • Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).
• Always switch the rangehood on when a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the rangehood, which could cause corrosion.
• When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc., do not leave the pans unattended. Never leave an open grill unattended when grilling. Over-heated oil and fat can ignite and could set the range-hood on fire.

CAUTION

The rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising from the cooktop. Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the rangehood has cooled down.

2. It cannot share the same air ventilation tube with other appliance such as gas tube, warmer tube, and hot wind tube.
3. The bending of ventilation tube should be>120°z parallel or above the start point and should be connected to the external wall.
4. After installation, make sure that the extractor is level to avoid grease collection at one end.

OPERATION

• The rangehood may only be operated when the aluminum stainless steel grease filter and of the rangehood is installed (see “Installation Instructions” section).
• Clean the cooking zone before using the cooktop for the first time (see the “Cleaning” section).
• Observe all safety and warning information during operation (see the “General Safety Instructions” section).

Control Panel and Function Keys

• Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and a high speed when odors are more concentrated.
• Turn the hood on for a few minutes before you start cooking.
• The hood should be left on for 15 minutes after cooking or until all odors have dispersed.
• The control switches are located on the front panel of the unit. See Image below.

Timer Button

• When the rangehood is in operation and the TIMER  button is pressed, the rangehood switches to timer mode.
• Press again to exit the timer function. The above steps can be operated repeatedly.
• The default setting is 9 minutes. The timer then starts counting down the time. The remaining time is shown in the display: 9 > 8 > 7 > 6 > 5 > 4 > 3 > 2 > 1 > 0. When [0] is shown, the rangehood is automatically switched off.

Energy Saving tips

This rangehood operates very efficiently and economically.
The following will help you to save even more energy when using it:

• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the kitchen when cooking. In extraction mode, if there is insufficient air flow the rangehood cannot operate efficiently and this causes increased operating noise levels.
• Always cook with the lowest possible setting. This produces fewer cooking vapors, so you can use a lower rangehood power level and therefore benefit from reduced energy consumption.
• Check the power level selected on the rangehood. A lower power level is generally sufficient for the majority of cooking. Only use the Booster setting when necessary.
• When a large volume of cooking vapors is being produced, switch to a high-power level in good time.
• This is more efficient than operating the rangehood  for longer to try to capture cooking vapors which have already been distributed throughout the kitchen.
• Make sure that you switch the rangehood off after use.
• Clean or change the filters at regular intervals. Heavily  soiled filters reduce performance, increase the risk of fire and are unhygienic

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Allow the appliance to cool down completely before cleaning and maintenance.
• The surfaces and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion. Please observe the following cleaning instructions.

Stainless steel

The stainless steel must be cleaned regularly (weekly) to ensure a long service life. Stainless steel surfaces  can be cleaned with a proprietary nonabrasive  cleaning agent designed specifically for use on  stainless steel.

Control panel

The control panel can be cleaned with warm soapy water. Make sure the cloth is clean and thoroughly wrung out before cleaning the control panel. Use a dry, soft cloth to remove excess moisture after cleaning.

WARNING
Observe all safety and warning information during operation (see the “General Safety Instructions” section).  Before maintenance or cleaning, the rangehood should always be disconnected from the power supply. Make sure that the rangehood is switched off and the plug has been removed.  Exterior surfaces are prone to scratches and dents. Therefore, please follow the cleaning instructions to achieve the best possible result without damage

Cleaning agents

Do not use stainless steel cleaning agents on the controls. Use neutral cleaning agents and avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals, strong household cleaners or products containing  abrasive cleaners as this will affect the appearance of the  appliance and may remove the printed symbols on the control panel.

The cleaning of the carbon grease filter mesh

An oversaturated filter is a fire hazard. The aluminum grease filter in the appliance removes solid particles from the kitchen vapors, grease, dust, etc., therefore, preventing soiling of the rangehood.

Grease filter cleaning intervals
The grease filter should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to avoid a build-up of grease

Cleaning the grease filter by hand

• The reusable aluminum filter can be cleaned by hand. Soak them in water together with a grease-dissolving detergent for about 3 minutes and then brush them gently with a soft brush. Do not apply too much pressure to avoid damaging the filter. Allow the filter to air dry afterward, but do not place it directly in the sun. Filters should always be washed separately from crockery and kitchen utensils!
• When removing the grease filter do not tilt it downwards at an angle. This can damage the retaining pins.
• With the deflector plate pushed in, grip the front of the deflector plate and hold the grease filter securely. Whilst holding the grease filter, pull the deflector plate out as shown.
• Then pull the filter downwards to remove it.
• Switch off the fan.

When handling a grease filter, be careful not to drop it. This can result in damage to the filter and the cooktop below. Make sure you hold the filter securely at all times when handling it. Remove the filter as shown in the image below and reinsert the filter in reverse order.

• Method 1: Put the mesh into 40-50 c clean water, pour on detergent, and soak for 2-3 mins. Wear gloves and clean with a soft brush. Please do not apply too much pressure, as the mesh is delicate and will damage easily.
• Method 2: If instructed to do so, it can be put into a dishwasher, set the temperature at around 60 degrees.

Tips on cleaning the cooker hood

1. To protect the main body from corrosion over a long period, the cooker hood should be cleaned with hot water plus non-corrosive detergent every two months.
