Using the cooker hood

The control panel - 8160 D

• The hood is fitted with one motor having several speed. Best results
are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and high
speed when odours are more concentrated. Turn the hood on a few
minutes before you start cooking then you will get an underpressure
in the kitchen. It should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes
or until all odours have disappeared.

The control switches are located on the unit’s front panel:

• the light switch switches the hood lamp on and off.

• the motor switch switches the cooking smoke and vapour extractor

motor on and off, enabling you to select the speed.

Correct ventilation

If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must be an underpressure
in the kitchen. It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed and
have a window in an adjacent room open.

Important to know

Not applicable for recirculation. Great care must be taken if the hood is
used at the same time as a burner or fireplace (e.g. gas, diesel, coal or
wood heaters, water heaters, etc.), as the hood will expel air which is
required by these other appliances. Attend to it by opening a window.
The negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to
prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
