IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Read these instructions carefully. Only then will you be able to operate your
appliance safely and correctly. Retain the instruction manual and installation
instructions for future use or for subsequent owners.
The appliance can only be used safely if it is correctly installed according
to the safety instructions. The installer is responsible for ensuring that the
appliance works perfectly at its installation location.
This appliance is intended for domestic use and the household environment
only. The appliance is not intended for use outside. Do not leave the
appliance unattended during operation.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage which is caused by improper use or incorrect operation. This appliance may be used by children over the age of 8 years old and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or by persons with a lack of experience or knowledge if they are supervised or are instructed by a person responsible for their safety how to use the appliance safely and have understood the associated hazards. Children must not play with, on, or around the appliance. Children must not clean the appliance or carry out general maintenance unless they are at least 8 years old and are being supervised. Keep children below the age of 8 years old at a safe distance from the appliance and power cable.
Check the appliance for damage after unpacking it. Do not connect the
appliance if it has been damaged in transport. Only a licensed professional
may connect appliances without plugs. Damage caused by incorrect connection is
not covered under warranty. The danger of suffocation! Packaging material
is dangerous to children. Never allow children to play with packaging
material. The danger of death! Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are
drawn back in. Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room at the same time
as room air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.
Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal- operated heaters, continuous flow heaters, or water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open air through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney). In combination with an activated vapor extractor hood, room air is extracted from the kitchen and neighboring rooms – a partial vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is supplied. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.
- Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.
- An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure compliance with the limit.
- In any case, consult your responsible Master Chimney Sweep. He is able to assess the house’s entire ventilation setup and will suggest suitable ventilation measures to you.
Risk of fire!
- Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Clean the grease filter at least every 2 months. Never operate the appliance without the grease filter. Risk of fire!
- Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Never work with naked flames close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do not install the appliance near a heat-producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g. wood or coal) unless a closed, non-removable cover is available. There must be no flying sparks.
- Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket, or something similar.
Risk of burns! The accessible parts become very hot when in operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance.
Risk of injury! Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. Wear protective gloves. Risk of injury!
Risk of electric shock!
- A defective appliance may cause electric shock. Never switch on a defective appliance. Unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out and damaged power cables replaced by one of our trained after-sales technicians. If the appliance is defective, unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
- Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners, which can result in an electric shock.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on
how to save even more energy when using the appliance.
SAVING ENERGY
- If cooking fumes have already spread in the kitchen, the extractor hood must be operated for longer.
- Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require it.
- Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
- Clean and, if required, replace the filter at regular intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Mount the cooker hood as shown in the pictures. Connect to the socket shown in image 9 to measure Pm pressure. Through the Pm measurement and the valve position, it is possible to establish the quantity of air extracted: in the graphic F1-F6 (forced ventilation) and in the graphic G1-G6 (base ventilation). The cooker hood is heavy and in order to move it, 2 persons are needed. During the installation of the cooker hood, always wear protective hand gloves to prevent injuries. The manufacturer strongly advises against the use of reducers or pipes with different diameters to the hood outlet pipe. The end part of the pipe, on the outside of the hole on the wall, must be of such a shape to avoid rain, gusts of wind, or other foreign bodies getting into the pipe.
AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT
Forced ventilation:
- Rotate the screw counterclockwise 360° (image 10 points 1).
- Move the plate (image 10 points 2) in the desired position corresponding to the diagram, shown in the graphic of image F.
- Rotate the screw clockwise until it is fixed (image 10 points 3).
- Measure the Pm pressure to check that the value of the desired forced ventilation is obtained with reference to the diagram of image F.
Basic ventilation (if recommended):
- Remove the screw (image 11 points 1).
- Remove the existing valve plate (image 11 points 2).
- Insert the supplied plate with the curved side (image 12 points 3).
- Move the plate with the curved side (image 13 points 4) in the desired position corresponding to the desired value shown in the graphic of image G.
- Insert the screw rotating it clockwise until it is fixed. (image 13 points 5)
- Measure the Pm pressure to check that the wished basic ventilation value is obtained with reference to the diagram of image G.
BEFORE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Before connection you must:
- check that the electrical data indicated are in conformity with the main voltage and frequency values of the building where the hood is to be installed;
- check that the building is fitted with electric safety systems to protect against short circuits and electric shock systems, according to the laws in force;
- install an electric socket (or connection point) with a bipolar switch, which has contacts with an opening of at least 3 MMS;
- if it is wished to install the hood with a plug, it is necessary that you have access to the plug;
- always turn off the main voltage supply by means of the bipolar switch before connecting and switch on again only when connections have been completed, tested, and are safe.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING The electrical connection can only be carried out by qualified
professional personnel, using standard material and standard installation
methods. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for installations
carried out by unskilled persons and for installations that are not in
conformity with the standard norms concerning electrical safety (both
concerning methods and materials).
ELECTRICAL TECHNICAL DATA The electrical technical data are visible
inside the hood after the removal of the grease filters.
CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY The flexible feed cable supplied is already connected internally and emerges from the hood near the air outlet duct. It is possible to affect two types of electric installation:
- fixed installation;
- installation by means of the plug on a socket;
- if an external device is connected, it may not exceed 300VA at 230V˜.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IF REPAIRS ARE TO BE CARRIED OUT
Repairs, including the replacement of the feed cable if necessary, are to be carried out only by qualified personnel, using standard methods, instruments, and materials. Any repairs carried out by others could prove to be dangerous and could be a fire risk.
FUNCTION AND USE
MAINTENANCE
GREASE FILTERS
The metallic grease filters are positioned on the bottom of the hood and are
used to contain any grease which is normally emitted in cooking fumes, thereby
impeding the deterioration of the motor. They can be washed either by hand or
in the dishwasher. For washing by hand, use hot water and soap; this can be
done by hand brushing vigorously several times and then rinsing under the tap.
After washing, the grease filters should be dried and re-fitted correctly. It
is possible that after washing the filter will have a slight change in color.
It is advised to wash the grease filters after circa 50-100 hours of use of
the cooking top. If the grease filters are very dirty, the motor can only take
in a small quantity of air, and performance is reduced; The grease which
accumulates on dirty filters is easily inflammable and can cause fires if they
are not removed by periodic washes. The manufacturer declines any
responsibility for fires caused by poor maintenance of the grease filters.
Never activate suction without fitted grease filters. The Company declines all
liability if the above warnings are dropped.
CLEANING
To preserve the hood in good condition, clean this period following the advice given as follows. Make sure that power has been completely turned off. The detergent solution recommended is a combination of WATER and NEUTRAL LIQUID SOAP. It is of vital importance that the liquid soap should not contain any grains which could scratch the surface. The solution should be applied first onto a soft cloth which is then rubbed over the shell. It is important to follow the pattern of the satin finish with the cloth. It is absolutely forbidden to pour liquids directly onto the hood. The cloth used should not have any buttons, zips, fasteners, or anything else which could scratch the surface. The use of harsh abrasive or granular products, petrol, spirits or similar products which could damage the surface of the material, is severely forbidden. The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damages either functional or to the appearance of the hood, caused by cleaning operations carried out using unsuitable products or unsuitable methods. During cleaning, do not overuse the keys in order to avoid accidental ignition.
IF YOU ENCOUNTER A PROBLEM
Disconnect the hood from the mains electricity supply and keep it disconnected for ca 1 minute, then reconnect. If the suction power has decreased, check that the grease filter cleaning intervals have been respected. Also, check that no foreign objects are accidentally aspirated (such as cleaning cloths) and if they are in the channel check that the channel fittings have not been damaged.
