WARNING

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the ppliance.
The extracted air can’t be conveyed through or into a duct used to let out fumes from appliances fed by energy other than electric power (eg. centralized heating, radiators, water heaters, etc.).
To evacuate the air outlet, please comply with the pertaining rules given by competent authorities.

  • Provide the room with an adequate aeration when a cooker hood and appliances fed by energy other than electric power (gas, oil, or coal stoves, etc.) are used simultaneously. The cooker hood, when evacuating the extracted air, could generate a negative pressure in the room which can’t exceed the limit of 0.04 mbar, in order to avoid the suck of exhausts deriving from the heat source. Therefore the room should be provided with air-intakes to allow a constant flow of fresh air.

  •  If the rating label in the cooker-hood does show the symbol the appliance is built in class 11° and it does not need the earth connection.

  • If the rating label in the cooker hood does not show the symbol , the appliance is built in class I° and it needs the earth connection.

  • When performing the electrical connections on the appliance, please make sure that the current tap is provided with earth connection and that voltage values correspond to those indicated on the label placed inside the appliance itself.

  • Before carrying out any cleaning or maintaining operations, the appliance needs to be removed from the electric grid.

  • If the appliance is not provided with a non-separable flexible cable and plug, or with another device ensuring omnipolar disconnections from the grid, with an opening distance between the contacts of at least 3 mm, then such disconnecting devices must be
    supplied within the fixed installation. If the appliance is endowed with a supply cord and a plug, the appliance has to be put in a place where the plug can be reached easily.
    The use of materials which can burst into flames should be avoided in close proximity of the appliance. When frying, please pay particular attention to fire risk due to oil grease. Being highly inflammable, fried oil is especially dangerous.
    Do not use uncovered electric grills. In order to avoid  possible fire risk, all instructions for grease filter cleaning and for removing eventual grease deposits should be strictly followed.

  • This appliance complies with all relevant local and national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and damage to property.

  • The cooker hood is not intended for outdoor use.

  • It must only be used as a domestic appliance to extract vapours and remove odours from cooking. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

  • Where a recirculation cooker hood is fitted above a gas hob, please ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air into the room in which it is installed. Please seek the advice of a qualified gas fitter (e.g. GasSafe in the UK) if necessary.

  • Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the cooker hood unless they are constantly supervised.

  • Children 8 years and older may only use the cooker hood.

  • unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

  • The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

  • Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

  • The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising from the hob.

  • Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood has cooled down.

OPENING THE PANEL

This appliance must be installed with a suitable external motor manufactured by Caple.
NOTE:
The motor does not come included and must be ordered separately.
OPENING THE PANEL
To open the panel which covers the grease filters, pull gently from the side as shown in Fig.1. They are held in place by magnets.
To work correctly, it is recommended to install the product at a maximum distance of 2000-2100mm, from the floor level.
Before proceeding with the installation of the appliance, check that all the components are not damaged, otherwise please contact your retailer and do not continue with the installation.  Use an air outlet pipe with a maximum length of no more than 5 metres. Keep the number of bends in the duct to a minimum as each bend reduces the suction efficiency equivalent to 1 linear meter. (E.g. If 2 90° bends are used, the length of the duct should not exceed 3 meters in length).

  • Avoid abrupt changes of direction.
  • Use a duct with a diameter of 150mm constant over the entire length.
  • Use a duct of recognised and approved material.

NOTE:
Ducting is not supplied with the product, this is to be supplied by the installer depending on the installation requirements.
For more information on venting, please see our ‘Extraction & Ventilation guide’ available at www.caple.co.uk 
The cooker hood should be placed at a minimum distance of 65cm above the hob. It is the manufacturer of the hob who determines the clearance required and the clearance quoted by the hob manufacturer must be followed. In the absence of any instructions supplied with a gas hob the minimum distance between the hob and the hood must be at least 760mm.
