NOTES ON SAFETY
-
Before using the appliance, please carefully read this manual!
-
The appliance is designed for household use only.
-
The manufacturer reserves the right to introduce changes, which do not affect operation of the ap-pliance.
-
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any dam-age or fire caused by the appliance resulting from failure to follow instructions in this manual.
-
Cooker hood is designed to remove cooking odours. Do not use cooker hood for other pur-poses.
-
Connect the cooker hood operating in extraction mode to a suitable ventilation duct (do NOT con-nect the cooker to smoke or flue gas ducts, which are in use). It requires installation of the air ex-traction duct to the outside. The length of the duct (usually a pipe of Ø 120 or 150 mm) should not be longer than 4-5 m. An air extraction duct is also required for telescopic and furniture hoods in absorption mode.
-
Cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal filter. In this case, installing an extractor duct is not required, however it is recommended to in-stall an air guide vane (Mainly in chimney cooker hoods).
-
The cooker hood features independent lighting and exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds.
-
Depending on the type, the hood is designed to be permanently attached to a vertical wall over a gas or electric stove (chimney and universal hoods); on the ceiling over a gas or electric stove (island hoods); on the vertical built in furniture over a gas or electric stove (telescopic and built-in hoods). Before installing, make sure that the wall/ceiling structure is strong enough to suspend the hood. Some hoods are very heavy.
-
For details of the installation distance above an electric hob please refer to product technical sheet If the installation instructions of the gas cooker specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account (Fig. 1).
-
Do not leave an open flame under the hood. When the pots are removed from the burner, set the minimum flame. Always make sure that the flame does not extend outside the pot, because it causes unwanted loss of energy and a dangerous concentration of heat.
-
When cooking on fat, supervise the pans con-stantly, because overheated fat can ignite.
-
Unplug the appliance before any cleaning, replac-ing the filter or repair work.
-
Cooker hood grease filter should be cleaned at least once a month, because the filter saturated with fat is flammable.
-
Ensure adequate ventilation (air flow) if other equipment such as liquid fuel stoves or heaters are operated in the room in addition the cooker hood. When the cooker hood is simultaneously operated with burning appliances requiring ade-quate fresh air from the room to work properly, their safe operation is possible if under pressure around these appliances is a maximum of 0.004 mbar (this does not apply when the cooker hood is used as an odour filter)
-
Do not lean on the hood.
The hood should be cleaned regularly both inside and out (AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, following the indications concerning maintenance provided in this manual)..Failure to adhere to the rules con-cerning cleaning the hood and replacing filters results in a fire risk. -
If the power cord is damaged it should be re-placed by a specialized service centre.
-
Ensure that it is possible to disconnect the appliance from the mains by removing the plug or switching off the bi-polar switch.

OPERATION
Kitchen hood controls
Control Panel is shown in Figure 4, for reference it is also shown below:
The control panel is equipped with buttons (isostat switch). To turn on the kitchen hood, press one of the button to select the de-sired speed:
- Low speed. Use this speed when cooking a little food with hardly any fumes.
- Medium speed. Use this speed when cooking multiple dishes at the same time with moderate amount of fumes.
- High speed. Use this speed when frying or grilling, with large amount of fumes.
- Turn off the appliance
Press the button to turn the lighting on/off. The lighting operates independently of hood fan. Selected kitchen hood models have an LED indicator that changes col-our depending on fan speed.
Other important information concerning the operation of the hood
Operation in air circulation / odour filter mode. In this mode, the filtered
air returns to the room through the outlets. Install activated charcoal filter
in this setting. It is recommended to install the air guide (available
depending on the model, mainly in chimney cooker hoods). Air extraction
operation: When cooker hood operates in extraction mode, air is discharged
outside through an extraction duct. Remove activated charcoal filter in this
setting. The cooker hood is connected to the air outlet opening using a rigid
or flexible extraction duct with a diameter of 150 or 120 mm, and the
appropriate clamps, which must be purchased at a hardware store. The appliance
should be installed by a qualified installer. Fan speed: Lowest and medium fan
speed is used in normal conditions and less intense odours, while the highest
speed is used only when cook-ing odours are very intense, such as during
frying or grilling.
Note (applies to universal hoods only): Due to the design of
universal hoods you need to manually change the mode of operation. See Figure
8 for instructions on how to change the mode.
Note (only applies to telescopic and in-built kitchen hoods): Furniture
and telescopic cooker hoods operating in air recirculation mode require
installation of the exhaust duct. The other end of the duct should be directed
to the room as it will discharge filtered air.
Note: Hanging kitchen hoods operate only in air circulation/odor absorber
mode
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
Regular maintenance and cleaning of the appliance will ensure trou-ble-free
operation of the cooker hood and extend its life. Especially make sure that
the grease filter and activated charcoal filter are replaced ac-cording to the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
- Do not use a soaked cloth, sponge, or water jet.
- Do not use solvents or alcohol, as they may tarnish lacquered sur-faces.
- Do not use caustic substances, especially for cleaning stainless steel.
- Do not use a rough or abrasive cloth.
- It is recommended to use a damp cloth and a neutral detergent.
Note: After several washes in the dishwasher, the color of the aluminum filter may change. The change of colour does not indicate improprie-ties or the necessity to change it.
Grease filter
For normal hood operation, the grease filter should be cleaned every month in
the dishwasher or by hand using a mild detergent or liquid soap.
Dismantling of the grease filter is shown on Figure 5. 
The
acrylic filter is used in some models. This filter should be replaced at least
once every 2 months or more frequently if the appliance is used intensively.
Activated charcoal filter
A charcoal filter is used only when the cooker hood is not connected to the
ventilation duct. An activated charcoal filter can absorb odours until
saturated. Charcoal filter is not suitable for washing or regeneration and
should be replaced at least once every 3-4 months or more frequently if the
appliance is used intensively.
Dismantling of the charcoal filter is shown on Figure 6. Light
Use incandescent/halogen / LED modules of the same specification as those
factory-installed in the appliance. See Figure 7 for details how to replace
lights. If there is no such figure in this manual, please contact authorised
