NOTES ON SAFETY
-
Before using the appliance, please carefully read this manual!
-
The appliance is designed for household use only. · The manufacturer reserves the right to introduce chang- es, which do not affect operation of the appliance. · The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage or fire caused by the appliance resulting from failure to follow instructions in this manual. · Cooker hood is designed to remove cooking odours. Do not use cooker hood for other purposes. · Connect the cooker hood operating in extraction mode to a suitable ventilation duct (do NOT connect the cooker to smoke or flue gas ducts, which are in use). It requires installation of the air extraction duct to the outside. The length of the duct (usually a pipe of Ø 120 or 150 mm) should not be longer than 4-5 m. An air extraction duct is also required for telescopic and furniture hoods in absorption mode. · Cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal filter. In this case, installing an extractor duct is not required, however it is recommended to install an air guide vane (Mainly in chimney cooker hoods). · The cooker hood features independent lighting and exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds. ·
-
Depending on the type, the hood is designed to be permanently attached to a vertical wall over a gas or electric stove (chimney and universal hoods); on the ceiling over a gas or electric stove (island hoods); on the vertical built in furniture over a gas or electric stove (telescopic and built-in hoods). Before installing, make sure that the wall/ ceiling structure is strong enough to suspend the hood. Some hoods are very heavy. · For details of the installation distance above an electric hob please refer to product technical sheet If the installation instructions of the gas cooker specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account (Fig. 1).
-
Do not leave an open flame under the hood. When the pots are removed from the burner, set the minimum flame. Always make sure that the flame does not extend outside the pot, because it causes unwanted loss of energy and a dangerous concentration of heat.
-
When cooking on fat, supervise the pans constantly, because overheated fat can ignite.
-
Unplug the appliance before any cleaning, replacing the filter or repair work.
-
Cooker hood grease filter should be cleaned at least once a month, because the filter saturated with fat is flammable.
-

The ozone generator
When this function is active, ozone is generated. Ozone has bactericidal,
viricidal and fungicidal properties, it destroys mites and germs. In addition,
it removes and neutralizes organic and inorganic odours and disinfects rooms.
Thanks to ozone, the odours of cooking and frying are removed faster and more
effectively. The ozone generator function can be used independently of the
kitchen hood operation in the air extraction or the recirculation mode. The
ozone generator function is only available when the hood fan operates. The
ozone is emitted by the kitchen hood in regular cycles, programmed in such a
way that the ozone concentration does not exceed the permissible and safe
doses, ensuring full safety of use.
NOTE! Before using the ozone generator function for the first time, set the appropriate ozonation programme, adapted to the size of the room (for open kitchens, the kitchen area with the directly connected room should be taken into account) to avoid the risk of a high ozone concentration, which can be harmful to health.
In order to set the appropriate ozonation programme:
- Touch to activate the appliance and will be shown on the display.
- Touch and hold the sensor for 8 seconds, and the display will show the number 1, 2 or 3, which will reflect the currently set programme.
- Now use the and sensors to select the desired ozonation programme suitable for the room size:
- The selected ozonation programme is stored and will not be lost even in the event of a power outage. When the suitable ozonation programme is set you can start using the
- ozone generator function. To do this, turn on the kitchen hood and set any fan speed. Touch
- to activate the ozone generator function. You can smell ozone in the air much like just after the storm. Touch the sensor again to turn off the ozone generator function.
- This function deactivates automatically after 3 hours or when you turn off the fan.
- Note : If the ozone generator operation is turned off for more than 40 minutes, and you re-activate the ozone generator, the cycle will be restarted rather than resumed (the
- time the function operated before will not be taken into account).
- Excessive concentration of ozone in the air is harmful to health, therefore use the suitable programme, and also, please observe these guidelines:
- Do not inhale the ozone directly from ozone generator housing outlets.
- Do not obstruct or block the air outlet grilles,
- Ozone generator function must not be used by persons suffering from olfactory disorders.
Other important information concerning the operation of the hood
Operation in air circulation / odour filter mode. In this mode, the
filtered air returns to the room through the outlets. Install activated
charcoal filter in this setting. It is recommended to install the air guide
(available depending on the model, mainly in chimney cooker hoods). Air
extraction operation: When cooker hood operates in extraction mode, air is
discharged outside through an extraction duct. Remove activated charcoal
filter in this setting. The cooker hood is connected to the air outlet opening
using a rigid or flexible extraction duct with a diameter of 150 or 120 mm,
and the appropriate clamps, which must be purchased at a hardware store. The
appliance should be installed by a qualified installer. Fan speed: Lowest and
medium fan speed is used in normal conditions and less intense odours, while
the highest speed is used only when cooking odours are very intense, such as
during frying or grilling. Note (applies to universal hoods only): Due to the
design of universal hoods you need to manually change the mode of operation.
See Figure 8 for instructions on how to change the mode. Note (only applies to
telescopic and in-built kitchen hoods): Furniture and telescopic cooker hoods
operating in air recirculation mode require installation of the exhaust duct.
The other end of the duct should be directed to the room as it will discharge
filtered air.
Note : Hanging kitchen hoods operate only in air circulation / odour
absorber mode
