ILVE HU Series HU60 Concealed Range Hood
Box Content
Exhausting cooker hood
The equipment is constructed in accordance with European Standards and with
the requirements included in the following Directives: 2006/95EC (Low Voltage
Directive), 2004/108 (Electromagnetic Compatibility).
INSTALLATION
Read the instruction manual before installing and/or using the hood. Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to the back flow of combustion gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a range hood or other cooking fume extractor, the operation of flued gas should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur. In order that the minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking pots on gas hob and low-voltage components present in the hood is at least 65cm as required by the regulations in force, it is necessary that the lower part of the hood is at least 65- 70cm away from the work top.
If the mounting instructions of the gas cooker indicate a wider distance, respect it. The unit must not be mounted above cookers fitted with top radiant plate. Respect all the air discharge regulations. The air must not be discharged in a pipe used to discharge exhaust fumes produced by gas- fed equipment or fuel-fed equipment (this does not apply to filtering hoods). The room must be adequately ventilated when the hoods is used together with other gas-fed or fuel-fed equipment. The hood is equipped with all the necessary fastenings for its installation, which are suitable for most surfaces. Anyway, ask to a professional to verify that the installation surface is strong enough. Installation must be carried out by qualified installers according to present regulations.
For an easy access, it is advisable to move possible furniture under the installation area.
- For mounting the hood follow the illustrations in Fig. 1.
- To remove the bottom panel follow the illustrations on Fig. 2
- To install the cover follow illustrations on Fig. 3
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
This appliance must be connected to an earthed power supply. Two types of electrical connection can be used:
- Using a standard plug to be connected to the power cable and inserted in a mains socket which must be accessible (so that the plug can be disconnected when servicing is carried out). Make sure that the plug is accessible also after the complete installation of the equipment.
- By means of a fixed mains connection, fitting a bipolar switch, which ensures the disconnection, with an opening distance of the contacts allowing a complete disconnection on the conditions of the over voltage III category, according to installation regulations. The ground connection (yellow-green wire) must not be interrupted. For stationary appliances permanently connected to the fixed wiring, compliance with this requirement is considered to be met if the instruction concerning disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring is in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage and frequency ratings.
USE
This cooker hood can be employed as exhausting or filtering. Exhausting (Fig. 4). The carbon filters should not be installed on the hood in exhausting version. Kitchen smokes are driven outside through a flue joined to the exhaust pipe flue connector. Pipes must be communicating with the exterior of the house. The diameter of the outlet of the hood is 150mm. A 150-125 reduction is provided with the hood. This pipe must not under any circumstances be connected to cooker, boiler or burner exhaust pipes, etc. Filtering (Fig. 5). The fumes pass through the carbon filters to be purified and recycled into the kitchen through a pipe connected to the outlet of the hood up to the hole in the top of the cabinet. This hole must be free and communicating with the kitchen.
In the filtering version you must install the two carbon filters on the sides of the aspirator. To install the carbon filters you must first remove the metal grease filters (Fig. 6) and then install carbon filters by turning them counterclockwise (Fig. 7).
OPERATION
The hood is supplied with a multi speed motor. The hood should be run at low speed under normal conditions and at higher speeds only when there is a heavy build-up of fumes or odour. Ideally, the hood should be switched on as soon as cooking is started and then kept on until all odour have been eliminated. The controls consist of these commands. Press TL to turn on the light, press T1 to switch on the hood at first speed and to switch off the aspirator, press T2-T3-T4 to select functioning speeds.
By pressing of the command T1 the motor starts running at the 1st speed. The
commands T2-T3-T4 switch the motor on respectively at the 2nd, 3rd and 4th
speed. In order to switch the motor off press T1 once if set at the 1st speed,
twice if set at the 2nd, 3rd and 4th speed. With the button T4, select the
maximum speed of the extraction fan for 5 minutes (LED blinking), after which
the extraction fan will automatically switch to the 3rd speed. Adjustable and
delayed self switching off 
While the hood is working, keep the TL command pressed until all LEDs start
blinking. By pressing one of the commands (T1, T2, T3, T4) you can program the
delayed self switching off, as follows:
T1 corresponds to 5 minutes
T2 corresponds to 10 minutes
T3 corresponds to 15 minutes
T4 corresponds to 20 minutes
FILTER TIMER:
Aluminum anti-grease filters
Once the hood is switched off, after 30 hour functioning, all the LEDs of the
speed buttons switch on with a fixed light for 30 seconds to remind that
aluminum anti-grease filter need cleaning. To set the timer to zero keep the
button T4 pressed with the aspirator switched off, otherwise the timer will
remain set on 30 hour functioning and the reminder will occur again when the
hood is switched off again.
CHARCOAL FILTER (FOR FILTERING HOODS)
Once the hood is switched off, after 120-hour functioning, all LEDs blink for
30 seconds to remind that the charcoal filter need cleaning. To set the timer
to zero keep the button T4 pressed with the aspirator switched off, otherwise,
the timer will remain set on 120 hour functioning and the reminder will occur
again when the hood is switched off again.
MAINTENANCE AND REMINDERS
Always disconnect the hood from the mains before carrying out any maintenance
or cleaning operation In order to remove the remaining glue or any impurity,
the cooker hood must be cleaned immediately after installation and after
having removed the protective film. The cooker hood must be cleaned frequently
both internally and externally (at least once a month).
Do not let dirt gather on the inner and outer surfaces of the hood. To clean
the exterior of the hood do not use either acid or basic products, or abrasive
sponges. Clean the hood with a sponge dampen in warm water and a little
quantity of neutral detergent (for example dishwasher detergent), in order to
remove possible particles of grease. Rinse with a damp cloth, removing all the
detergent carefully, following the satin finish direction on the steel
surface.
Drying is very important, especially in areas where water is particularly hard and leaves limestone. Particular attention should be paid to the metallic antigrease filters that are designed to trap particles of fat contained in the fumes. The metallic anti-grease filters must be washed at least once a month with detergent in hot water (or in the dish-washer).
ATTENTION:
- the grease collected in the filter can easily catch fire and it is therefore extremely important to clean the metallic filter on a regular basis as per instructions. Grease filters are removed as illustrated (Fig. 5).
- Do not flambé under the range hood
- Caution: accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
- Never leave the hob unattended when frying, as oil or fat can catch fire. The function of the activated carbon filters is to prevent the spread of odour present in the cooking fumes. Clean air is returned to the kitchen. Carbon filters cannot be washed and must be replaced 2 or 3 times a year according to the amount of use.
The hood features a LED light that, in addition to offer a good lighting and a
significant energy savings, is guaranteed to last about 10 times more than
traditional lights. For replacement, contact us at
customercare@eurolinx.com.au
Spare filters can be purchased from dealers or direct from the manufacturer.
Removal : detach the metal covers and rotate the carbon filters clockwise
(Fig. 6) until release from of the motor.
Re-fit: position the new carbon filters and reverse the procedure. The
hood should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth using neutral liquid detergents.
Do not use solvents, petroleum products or abrasives. If the supply cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
THE MANUFACTURER DOES NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE OR INJURY CAUSED IF
THE USER FAILS TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING INSTALLATION,
MAINTENANCE AND THE PROPER USE OF THE COOKER HOOD. For service or a copy of
this manual contact us at
