INSTALLATION

Exhaust hood is an equipment which sucks smoke and cooking fragrance. With a vent hood, your kitchen will be free from oil particles that may produce bad odor.

1. Check the strength of wall on which the exhaust hood is to be installed. Make sure the wall can sustain the weight / load of the vent hood.
2. The exhaust hood should be installed precisely over the stove at a vertical distance of 65 – 75 cm from the stove surface.
   

Installing the exhaust hood on the wall

Exhaust hood must be installed perpendicularly to prevent the oil from flowing to one side and dripping out of the vent hood.

Preparations before installing the exhaust hood

1. Remove the exhaust hood from its packaging and put it on an even place (e.g. Tables).
2. Open the aluminum filter and then pull it. Remove the spigot/ flange (pipe connector) and the hole cover from the plastic bag.
3. Turn the air directing knob to the following position:
   • Exterior symbol for ducting/exhaust system
   • Interior symbol for re-circulating system
4. Reassembling the aluminum filter
5. The exhaust hood has two holes on it: Hole D and Hole E (look at the picture). To install the spigot/flange and hole cover, follow these instructions: follow these instructions:
   • For ducting / exhaust system: Install the spigot / flange G on one of the air holes, either D or E. Holes which do not have spigot / flange shall be covered with Hole Cover H.
   • For re-circulating system: Both air holes D and E shall be covered with the available plastic Hole Cover.
     

Installation of exhaust hood

Exhaust hood can be installed on the concrete (brick) wall or the bottom part of the kitchen set.

Installing on concrete (brick) wall

1. Draw a centerline on the wall where the exhaust hood is to be installed (1).

2. Post a template for drilling on the wall (2). If no template is available, attach the exhaust hood on the wall and mark the spot on the wall where a hole is to be made.

3. Create holes on the four marks with a 6 mm diameter drill bit or fisher size (3), and then insert the fisher to the four holes (4).
   ATTENTION! Before drilling, make sure that there’s no cable installation, water pipe and installation inside the wall.

4. Install the screw on noth upper holes and set aside 1 cm between the head of the screw and the wall surface (5).

5. Install the exhaust hood on the screwes wall by suspending the vent hood on the screq (6).
   

6. When the exhuast hood is positioned correctly on the wall, tighten both screws on the upper part (7)

7. To reinforce the exhaust hood handle on the wall, install the screws on both holes on the bottom part (8) and tighten them (9).

8. Reassembling the aluminum filter.

9. Connecet the exhaust system with the spigot/falnge if the exhaust hood is to be operated as a ducting/ exhaust system.

Installation on the bottom part of the kitchen set

1. Put the exhaust hood on the bottom part of the kitchen set in accordance with the planned position.
   

2. Mark the bottom part of the kitchen set for flexible pipe hole and then create a hole if the exhaust hood is to be operated with ducting/exhaust system.

3. Install the exhaust hood with 4 screws on the prepared position.

4. To reinforce the exhaust hood handle on the kitchen set, install the screws on other holes on the upper part and tighten them.

5. Connect the exhaust system with the spigot/flange if the exhaust hood is to be operated as a ducting/exhaust system.

Operating procedure

MODENA Exhaust Hood has 2 (two) work methods as follows:

DUCTING / EXHAUST System:

• In this mode, the exhaust hood operates by sucking the smoke/ cooking odor and then discharging it out of the vent.

• A heat/fire-resistant ducting system is required to discharge smoke/odor out of the vent.
  

• To connect the exhaust hood with the discharge duct, use “spigot/flange” is designed with a diameter of 100 or 125 mm.
  

Several things which require attention in installing the ducting system exhaust hood:

1. Carbon filter must be removed because the cooking odor will be sucked and immediately discharged out of the room.

2. The suction force will be diminished if the exhaust system is too long and there are too many elbows.
   

3. Do not connect the exhaust system with a chimney or an air duct or hot steam duct.

4. If the exhaust hood is to be installed in a multi-storied building or an apartment, consult with the person in charge of the building / apartment prior to installing the exhaust system.

5. Exhaust hood with ducting system should be used in an openair room with good air circulation.

RECIRCULATING system:

In this version, the exhaust hood sucks the smoke/cooking odor and filters it through an aluminum filter and carbon filter. The filtered smoke is then recirculated into the room. This system is used if the premise renders it impossible to install a ducting system.

Several things which must be ensured when installing an exhaust hood with re- circulating system:

1. Both carbon filter and aluminum filter must be used.

2. The position of both filters must be correct.
   

3. Holes where air duct is discharged found in the front cabinet of the exhaust hood cannot be closed.

MAINTENANCE

MODENA Exhaust Hood is specifically designed for long-term usage and does not require complicated maintenance. However, there are several things you can do to maintain its quality as follows:

Cleaning the cabinet:

To clean the surface of exhaust hood cabinet from sticky oil particles, use cloth/sponge and soap water and dry it. The cabinet should be cleaned after each cooking session.

Cleaning the filter:

Smoke/steam from cooking and oil particles generated by the cooking procedure will be immediately absorbed by hte filter and therefore must be cleaned regularly.

Aluminum filter and metal filter:

• For routine usage, clean the aluminum filter once every 10-15 days by soaking the filter in a basin filled with soap water  for 1 hour (look at picture) and use a soft brush to scrub it and then dry the filter throughly before returning it to its proper position.
• Aluminum filter can be cleaned using a dishwasher.
• Avoid bending the filter during wash.
  

Carbon filter

Carbon filter must be replaced with a new one at least once every 4 months or when carbon filter is no longer capable of absorbing the cooking odor.

• Remove the power cord from the electrical outlet.

• Open the exhaust hood grid.

• Rotate the carbon filter counterclockwise and remove the carbon filter
  

• Install the new carbon filter by putting it in position and rotating it clockwise.

ATTENTION!

Carbon filter cannot be washed and must be replaced with a new one upon its expiry.
