IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
d) Before connecting the appliance to the power supply make sure that the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply.
This data must correspond to prevent appliance damage. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
e) Installation work and repairs should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.
f) Only open the housing as described in the enclosed "Installation diagram" and in the "Cleaning and care" section of this manual. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the housing be opened. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operation faults.
g) Before discarding an old appliance, disconnect it from the power supply and remove the power cord to prevent hazards.
Use
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A COOKTOP GREASE FIRE:
a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.
b) Always turn the hood on when cooking at a high heat.
c) Clean the ventilation hood frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter.
d) Use the proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the cooking area.
e) Do not flambé or grill with an open flame beneath the hood. Flames could be drawn up into the hood by the suction and the grease filters may catch fire.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A COOKTOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING*:
a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray then turn off the burner.
BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - You may be burned.
c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.
d) Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:
1)You have a class ABC extinguisher, and you know how to operate it.
2)The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3)The fire department is being called.
4)You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
*Based on "Kitchen Firesafety Tips" published by NAFTA
Do not allow children to play with or operate the appliance or its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.
Always turn on the hood when using the cooktop to prevent damage from condensation.
Never operate gas burners without cookware. Turn the burner off when not in use. Adjust the burner so that the flames do not extend beneath the cookware. Do not overheat the cookware, e.g. when using a wok. The hood can be damaged due to excessive heat from the burners and the cookware.
Do not use the hood without the grease filters in place.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the hood. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
b) Sufficient air is needed for combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
c) When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
g) Do not install this hood over cooktops that burn solid fuel.
h) Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood given in the "Appliance dimensions" section of this manual.
If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.
If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.
i) Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork.
j) Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
k) Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable materials.
d) Ducted hoods must always be vented to the outdoors.
e) Do not use this hood with any solid-state speed control device.
f) Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

Functional description
The hood offers two modes of operation:
Air extraction |
Recirculation mode |
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Air is drawn through the grease filters and an active charcoal filter. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen through a vent at the top of the hood’s chimney.
The recirculation mode requires an install kit and charcoal filter which are optional accessories.
Before using the hood in recirculation mode, ensure that the active charcoal filter is in place, see "Cleaning and care".
