Storm Built-Under Hood
Instruction Manual
ST523 / ST853
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 appliance.
– The cooking surface and the inferior part of the cooker hood must be at a
minimum distance of 65 cm.
– 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 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
bar, in order to avoid the suck of exhausts deriving from the heat source.
Therefore the room should be provided with air intake to allow a constant flow
of fresh air.
– When performing the electrical connections on the appliance, please make
sure that the current tap is provided with an earth connection and that
voltage values correspond to those indicated on the rating 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 fixed 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 that can burst into flames should be avoided in close
proximity to 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 vapors and remove
odors 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 in 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 recognize 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.

are cleaned both by a grease filter and by an active charcoal filter and put
again into circulation through the hole made in the top of the cabinet.
› In ducted mode (Fig.2), fumes are directly conveyed outside, through an
evacuation duct connected from the extractor to the outside. Both charcoal
filter and air deflector are not necessary in this case.
INSTALLATION
Before installing the appliance, make sure that none of the parts are damaged
in any way. In case of damaged parts, contact your retailer and do not proceed
with the installation.
Read all of the following instructions with care before installing the
appliance:
› If venting the hood, use an air outlet pipe of the shortest possible length.
› Limit the number of pipe bends.
› Use a duct of recognized and approved material.
› Avoid any abrupt changes of direction and use a duct with a diameter of
150mm constant over the entire length.
NOTE:
For more information on venting, please see our ‘Extraction & Ventilation
guide’ available at www.caple.co.uk
ATTENTION: AT LEAST TWO PEOPLE ARE NEEDED TO PERFORM THE INSTALLATION.
Before installing the appliance, in order not to damage the appliance itself,
the metal grease filter should be removed. This can be removed by pushing the
special filter handle toward the back side of the cooker hood and pulling it
downwards so to unfasten it from its slot (Fig.3).
› Make a cut-out in the bottom of the cabinet which is suitable to hold the appliance in position (Fig.4).
› Prepare the power supply.
› Create a hole for air evacuation.
› Adjust the position of the stop side springs using the appropriate screws,
according to the thickness of the board the appliance will be fixed to
(Fig.5).
› Insert the appliance into the hole made in the cabinet until the stop click
of the side springs is heard and the appliance is locked in position.
› Insert the screws provided into the holes inside the appliance to secure it
completely (Fig.6).

be removed by pushing its handle toward the back-side of the cooker hood and
turning the filter downwards so as to unfasten it from its slot (Fig.3). To
insert the filter just perform the opposite operation.
› After 30 hours of use, the control panel will signal the saturation of the
grease filter by illuminating all the buttons. Press the timer button e to
reset.
› The grease filter needs cleaning regularly by hand or in the dishwasher, at
least every two months or more depending on use.
NOTE: If washing the grease filter in the dishwasher, wash separately to
prevent food particles from becoming trapped in the filter mesh.
› When the appliance is used in recirculating mode, the active charcoal filter
(Fig.7) needs to be periodically replaced. The charcoal filter can be removed
by removing the grease filter first (Fig.3), and by pulling its special
plastic tongue until it is unfastened from its slot. Reinsert the charcoal
filter by performing the opposite operation.
› The active charcoal filter will need replacing depending on the use, but at
