Installation Instructions

Before installation, please ensure the area is clean, to avoid suction of the remaining bits of broken wood and dust.
The canopy hood cannot share the same air ventilation ducting as other appliances, such as gas and electric heaters.
The bending of the ventilation ducting should be ≥ 120°, parallel or above the exit vent, and should be connected through the external wall.
After installation, make sure that the extractor is level to avoid grease collection at one end.

NOTE: Remove all protective plastic coatings from the stainless-steel surfaces before use.

The rangehood should be placed at a distance of 65-75cm (26-30inch) from the cooking surface for the best effect (Fig. 02).
Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the place of chimney (Fig. 03).
Fix the extensible pipe according to the lead direction and way, and then put the cooker hood on the hook (Fig. 04 and Fig. 05).
Lead the extensible pipe outside of the room, meanwhile adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix on it by screw, here should be sure the inside chimney can be flexed freely (Fig. 06).
Put the two chimneys together onto the cooker hood body, meanwhile adjust the height of the inside chimney into the suitable height, and fix the inside chimney to the inside chimney bracket by screw. Finally, fix the body with safety screw (Fig. 07).

Note: Fix the Canopy with safety screws. See Pic 5. The two safety screw holes are positioned on the back casing, with a diameter of 6mm.
Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

Operating Instructions

The re-usable aluminium grease filters supplied with this rangehood should be cleaned every month or so to avoid grease build-up.
To remove the grease filter, release the locking mechanism at the front of the filter, and lower the filter slightly to unhook it at the back. Whilst the filter is removed, clean off any residual grease from the housing to avoid fire risk.
When replacing the grease filters, ensure that the locking mechanism is facing down. If the rangehood is used in re-circulation mode, the activated charcoal filter must be in place. These charcoal filters are designed to absorb cooking odours and are located in the canopy above the grease filters. Before fitting or replacing charcoal filters, the grease filters must first be removed.

CONTROLS

Push the ‘Power’ button to turn the unit on and off.
Push the ‘Low’ button to set the extraction fan to low speed.
Push the ‘Mid’ button to set the extraction fan to medium speed.
Push the ‘High’ button to set the extraction fan to high speed.
Push the ‘Light’ button to turn the light on and off.

Maintenance

CLEAINING THE GREASE FILTER MESH

The filter mesh is made of high-density stainless steel. Please do not use corrosive detergent on it. Keeping this filter clean will keep the appliance running correctly. Please follow the guidelines below.
Place the mesh in 40 – 50°C clean water, add in a small amount of detergent, and soak for 2 – 3 minutes. Wear gloves, and clean with a soft brush. Do not apply too much pressure, as the mesh is delicate and will damage easily.
The grease filters can also be put into a dishwasher. To do so, set the temperature at around 60 degrees.

CLEANING THE RANGEHOOD

To protect the main body from corrosion over a long period of time, the cooker hood should be cleaned with hot water and a non-corrosive detergent every two months.
Do not use abrasive detergent as it will damage the body.
Keep the motor and other spare parts free from water, as this will cause damage to the appliance.
Before cleaning, unplug the appliance.
If fitted with active charcoal filters, the charcoal filter should not be exposed to heat.
Do not tear open the fixed bar around the active charcoal filter.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.

Replacing the Lights

Warning: Before attempting to change the lights, ensure that the appliance is
switched off and unplugged from the wall socket.

Remove the grease filter.
Press the spring on both sides of the LED light until the light falls out (Pic. 1).

Gently pull the light wire out and disconnect the terminal (Pic. 2).
Reverse the procedure to replace the light. Use an identical light:
- LED modules – round lamp.
- Max Wattage: 2 x 1.5W
- Voltage Range: 12V DC
- ILCOS D Code: DSR-1.5/65-S-64
- - Replace the grease filter.
