RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

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).

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 600mm (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 inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthling.
• Connect the range hood to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• Do not connect the range hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion flumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• If the range hood 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 range hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the range hood.
• In the event of damage to the power cable, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by a qualified technician in order to prevent any risks.

USE

• The range hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate kitchen odors.
• Never use the range hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the range hood when it is in operation.
• 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; risk of fire.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their well being.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Cleaning and user maintenance should not be made by children without supervision.
• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.

MAINTENANCE

• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period (Fire hazard).
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.

MAINTENANCE

FILTERS

Your Kleenmaid range hood has one or both the following types of filters:

The visible aluminum grease filters, which are should be present on every range hood.

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 back side 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 range hood 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 range hood, however if they are damaged in any way, replacements may be purchased by emailing [email protected] or calling 02 9310 1207.

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

There are 2 charcoal filters located inside this rangehood which remove cooking odours from the air. They cannot be cleaned and will require replacement. The effective life of the filters depends on the type and amount of cooking you do. Generally the life of these filters is approximately six months. However, always replace the filters when they no longer absorbs odours effectively.

When replacement Kleenmaid Activated Charcoal filters are required they may be purchased by visiting the Kleenmaid website www.kleenmaid.com.au, emailing [email protected] or calling 02 9310 1207.
