RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

Before using this appliance please study this entire User Manual carefully. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. Ensure that other people using the product are familiar with these instructions as well. The latest version of this manual is available on our website. (See back page for details.)

INSTALLATION

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.

• The safety gap between the range hood and the hob below must comply with the recommendations of the hob manufacturer. In case of no instructions, a minimum distance of 650mm (or other minimum distance as may be specified by AS/NZS 5601 and interpreted by a certified installer) should apply.

• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the hood.

• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.

• Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of a minimum diameter of 120mm.
  The route of the flue must be as short as possible.

• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances),a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electricity, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes from being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

• Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

USE

• The range hood is only for home use. It is not suitable for barbecues, roast shops, and other commercial purposes.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed. z Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation. z Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flames. Do not flame under the range hood due to the risk of fire.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their wellbeing.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. z Cleaning and user maintenance should not be done by children without supervision.
• “CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances”.

MAINTENANCE

• The cooker hood and its filter should be cleaned regularly according to the instruction.
• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the main supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified period (Fire hazard). z Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent. z The appliance uses 4 hob elements at most.

INSTALLATION

NOTE: Before making preparations for or commencing installation, the installer should refer to the current online version of the User Manual, which is available on the Kleenmaid website (see back cover for details).

CHOOSE A VENTING MODE

This rangehood may be installed in one of 2 venting modes – ducted extraction- air mode and recirculation mode. The mode to be used must be decided before installation.
With extraction-air mode, the air is discharged out of the house by a pipe (duct) to be provided by the installer.
When recirculation mode is chosen, the air is purified and discharged into the house through two rows of holes on the adjustable decorative cover.
Note: No attached ducting is needed for recirculation mode, but the activated charcoal or carbon filters must be installed to filter the air. In this mode, the suction power may be slightly lower.

WALL DRILLING AND BRACKET FIXING

NOTE: The safety gap between the range hood and the hob below must comply with the recommendations of the hob manufacturer. In case of no instructions, a minimum distance of 650mm (or other minimum distance as may be specified by AS/NZS 5601 and interpreted by a certified installer) should apply.

As a first step, proceed with the following drawings:

• A vertical line up to the ceiling or up to the upper limit, at the center of the area in which the hood is to be fitted.
• A horizontal line A at 970 ­ 1070 mm above the cooker top. A horizontal line B at a X mm above the horizontal line A.
• A horizontal line C at 243 mm below horizontal line A.

Mark Points:

• Mark a point (1) on the horizontal line A, 80 mm to the vertical reference line.
• Repeat this operation on the other side and on the vertical reference line, checking that the three marks are leveled.
• Mark a point (2) on the horizontal line B, 60 mm to the vertical reference line.
• Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are on the same horizontal line.
• Mark a point (3) on the horizontal line C, mm to the vertical reference line. Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are leveled.

Fix the brackets:

• Drill holes at the marked points with a 10 mm drill bit.
• Insert the Wall Plugs 11 into the holes.
• Fix the hood fixing bracket 20 with 3 screws 10 (5 x 50) at the horizontal line A.
• Fix a Chimney fixing bracket 21 with 2 screws 10 (5 x 50) at the horizontal line B.

Lower decorative chimney

• Fix the 150mm diameter smooth wall rigid exhaust pipe (not supplied) on the hood body, connect chimney and hood body with 2 screws 12. connect chimney fixing bracket and chimney with 2 screws 12.

Hook the hood body

• Hook the hood body to bracket 20.
• Level the hood body itself.
• Remove the filter from the inside of the hood body, fix the screws 10 to Wall Plugs 11 at the points (3).

CONNECTIONS

DUCTED VERSION AIR EXHAUST SYSTEM
When installing the ducted version, connect the range hood to the chimney using a smooth wall rigid 150mm diameter ducting pipe (not supplied).

• Fix the pipe in position using sufficient pipe clamps (not supplied).
• Remove possible charcoal filters.

Upper Decorative Chimney

• Insert the upper decorative chimney into the lower decorative chimney and drag it up to the horizontal line
• Connect upper decorative chimney and chimney fixing bracket with 2 screws.

USE

Speed adjustment buttons
Each function is controlled independently by a button.

• When first plugged into a powered electrical socket, the rangehood will chime once to show it’s connected to the electrical supply. After the connection:
• Press the Power button to control the motor power. In Standby mode, pressing this button will cause the motor to operate at a low speed and the lights on the Power and Low-speed buttons will be illuminated. If the range hood is operating when the Power button is pressed the appliance will enter a 3 minute delayed Shutdown mode. Press the Power button again to turn the range hood off immediately.
• When the range hood is operating use the Low, Mid, and High buttons to select the speed. The motor will then operate at the selected speed and the light for that button will be illuminated to indicate the speed. If the range hood is already operating at the selected speed pressing this button has no effect.
• Use the Power button to turn off the rangehood. With one press the appliance will enter Shutdown mode and turn off automatically after 3 minutes. Press the Power button again to turn the range hood off immediately.
• Pressing the Low, Mid or High buttons during Shutdown mode cancels the Shutdown mode and the rangehood will operate at the selected speed.
• Press the Light button once to turn the lights on. Press it again to turn them off.

MAINTENANCE

FILTERS
Your Kleenmaid rangehood has one or both the following types of filters:

1. The visible aluminum grease filters, which are present on every rangehood.
CLEANING THE GREASE FILTERS

• These filters must be cleaned after every 2 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage.
• Operate the latch on the grease filters and remove the filters one by one, pushing them towards the backside of the range hood unit and simultaneously pulling downwards.
• These filters may be cleaned either with a soft-bristled brush in warm soapy water or in a dishwasher (without other items).
• Any kind of bending of the filters should be avoided when washing them. Before fitting them back into the range hood make sure that they are completely dry. (The color of the filter surface may change over time but this has no effect on filter efficiency).
• When fitting the filters into the rangehood make sure that they are mounted in the correct position with the handle facing outwards, and latch securely.
• There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.

Normally these filters will last the life of the rangehood, however, if they are damaged in any way, replacements may be purchased by emailing support@kleenmaid.com.au or calling 02 9310 1207.

2. The internal Kleenmaid Activated Charcoal (or “Carbon”) Filter, which will be present on a rangehood installed in recirculating mode i.e. not vented outdoors.

These filters are located inside the rangehood and remove cooking odors from the air. They cannot be cleaned and will require replacement. The effective life of the filter depends on the type and amount of cooking you do. Generally, the life of these filters is approximately six months. However, always replace the filter when it no longer absorbs odors effectively.
When replacement Activated Charcoal filters are required they may be purchased by visiting the Kleenmaid website www.kleenmaid.com.au, emailing support@kleenmaid.com.au, or calling 02 93101207.

REPLACING THE ACTIVATED CHARCOAL FILTERS

• Remove the metal grease filters
• Remove the saturated activated charcoal filter.
• Fit the new filters.
• Replace the metal grease filters.

Warning: It must be ensured that the filters are correctly installed whenever the range hood is operating. Failure to do so may damage the range hood, and such damage will not be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

CLEANING THE RANGEHOOD

Clean the range hood regularly using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.
Switch off or unplug the appliance from the main supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
