Cleaning & Maintenance
ALWAYS SWITCH OFF AND UNPLUG FIRST!
SURFACES:
Wash with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Never use abrasive detergent, scouring pads, steel wool, or solvents on any part of this appliance as this will cause irreparable damage.
ALUMINUM GREASE FILTERS:
Wash in the dishwashers or soak the panels in a degreasing agent for an hour, then rinse off and dry before reinstalling.
CHARCOAL FILTERS:
(only in the recirculating model): Charcoal cannot be reused. They must be replaced with the appropriate types once a year or depending on the frequency of appliance usage.
For this appliance to function effectively, regular maintenance is a must.
Clogged filters restrict airflow and may cause the motor to overheat.

Installation

Use suitable bolts to mount the appliance on a secure surface.
The minimum distance between the bottom of the range hood and the cooking surface shall be at least 65 cm.
When the range is located above a gas appliance, the recommended distance must be considered.
The location of the installation must have permanent openings for ventilation.
Regulations concerning the exhaust of air must be respected.
It is strongly recommended that the hood be installed directly over the cooking area.
It is better not to install the exhaust in the direction of the wind. This can cause the exhaust to be returned to the house. the outlet of the pipe in the wind direction, which can prevent the exhaust air from flowing backward.
Fasten the components for the exhaust outlet with screws. To ensure proper exhaust, make sure the pipe is bent as few times as possible. good ejection of exhaust air, the pipe must not be bent too many times.

For Tower model

• Put the inner chimney into the upper chimney. Then, pull the upper chimney upwards.
  Adjust to reach the height required.

• Fix the lower chimney with 2 4 x 8 mm screws.

• Sliding the chimney to adjust the chimney height. When the height you required is reached, then fix 2 4 x 8mm screws into the “Plate I” holes as shown below.

• Drill 2 x 8mm holes to accommodate the “Plate II”. Screw and tighten the plate into the wall with 2 screws provided.

• Assemble the chimney into the unit and fix it with 2 screws.

Installation (Vent inside)
If you do not have an outlet to the outside, an exhaust pipe is not required, and the installation is similar to the one shown in section “Installation (Vent outside)”.

An activated carbon filter can be used to trap odors.
In order to install the activated carbon filter, the grease filter should be detached first.
Press the lock and pull it downward.

Plug the activated carbon filter into the unit and turn it in a clockwise direction. Repeat the same on the other side.

NOTE:

• Make sure the filter is securely locked. Otherwise, it would loosen and cause danger.
• When an activated carbon filter is attached, the suction power will be reduced.

CEILING MOUNTING INSTALLATION

1. Position the hanging plate on the
   ceiling and then mark the position of the screw holes.
   The hanging plate should be securely fixed to the ceiling,
   ● 11 x ST6 (40 mm) screws for wooden ceiling
   ● 8 x expansion bolts for cement ceiling

2. Fix the angle bars to the hanging plate, using the 8 x M5 screws.
3. Extend the angle bars to the required height and then fix them in position using the 16 x M5 screws and nuts with metal washers.
   ● IMPORTANT: The angle bars must have an overlap of AT LEAST 100 mm.

4) If your cooker hood is going to be used in extraction mode, then you should connect the ducting hose to the ceiling adaptor at this point.
Fix the upper chimney section to the hanging plate, using the 4 x self-tapping screws.
Slide the lower chimney section onto the angle bars and raise it until it sits just below the upper chimney section.

5. If the glass canopy has not been pre-assembled by the factory, then it should be fixed to the top of the main body of the cooker hood at this stage.

6. Lift the main body of the cooker hood onto the angle bar and then fix it into position using the 16 x M5 screws.
   ● IMPORTANT: This stage of the installation process MUST be completed by two people.
   ● IMPORTANT: The 16 x M5 screws MUST be securely tightened.

7. If you are going to be using the hood in extraction mode, you should fix the ducting hose to the spigot.

• The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the cooker hood. The appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply.
• Check that the appliance is operating correctly by selecting each speed and switching the light bulbs on and off.
• Remove the hanging hook and then slide the lower chimney section downwards until it rests against the main body of the cooker hood.
• Use a stainless-steel cleaner and polish the stainless-steel sections of the appliance.
• If you are using the appliance in recirculation mode, then you should now fit the carbon filter. See the “Fitting the carbon filter” section on page 21.

BUILT-IN MOUNTING INSTALLATION

Slim model
Method 1:

• To install onto the wall drill 2 holes of 8mm diameter in a suitable place according to the center distance of holes in the back of the range hood.
• Insert the nut into the holes.
• Insert the screws into the nuts and tighten. Put the cooker hood onto the tightened screws.
• Fix the range hood with a safety screw. The two safety vents are positioned on the back casing, with a diameter of 6mm.
• Put the one-way valve onto the cooker hood.

Method 2:

• Drill 4 holes of 6mm diameter at the bottom of the hanging cupboard
• Put the one-way valve on the range hood, then install the range hood on the bottom of the cupboard, and tighten the hood with enclosed 4 screws.
• Install the adjusted board on the bottom of the hood in order to keep out the gap between the hood back and the cupboard.

Note:

1. The extensible pipe is an optional accessory, not supplied.
2. Take off protection film before installation.
3. There are 2 methods of exhausting air. They are ‘Vertical’ and ‘Horizontal’. Please pay attention to the exhaust method when installing.
   Vertical ventilation: See Pic A, please use a tool to take out the ground cover before installing so the air can be vented from the top.
   Horizontal ventilation: See Pic B, please use the tool to take out the rectangular cover before installing so the air can be vented from the back.
   The rectangular air outlet for horizontal ventilation is not supplied.

Air ventilation setting

• Outdoor exhausting: Turn the adjuster to the outdoor position (Pic. A), install the outlet, turn on the cooker hood, then the air will be vented from the outside outlet.
• Recycling: the recycling mode with a carbon filter. Turn the adjuster to the indoor position (Pic. B), install the outlet cover, and turn on the range hood, then the air can be vented from the inside outlet. (See Pic D).
• Note: The charcoal filter is mounted on the back of the grill and must be changed once every three months.
• Warning: the charcoal cannot be washed or recycled. It should be changed at most after 120 hours using. The carbon filter shouldn’t be exposed to heat.

Every hood has two fixing screws to firmly fix the hood in its place.
