Electrical connections
Safety warnings for electrician
It must be ensured that the voltage and current indicated on the rating
plate agree with the voltage of the user to electricity supply .
If the appliance has been equipped with a mains lead with a moulded-on
type plug, the following regulations must be comply with:
The plug moulded on to the lead incorporates a fuse. For replacement,
use a 5 amp BS1362 fuse. Only ASTA approved or certified fuses should
be used. If the fuse cover/carrier is lost, a replacement cover/carrie must
be obtained from an electrical goods retailer. If the socket outlets are not
suitable for the plug fitted to the appliance, then the plug must be cut off
and destroyed for safety reasons, and an appropriate plug be fitted.
When wiring the plug ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained
in each terminal. Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug.
Electrical connections
230 V - using fixed power supply line with plug.
Fuse rating13 amps
(The unit should only be connected up by an authorized electrician).
See rating plate for further information.
It is recommended that the socket for the plug is sited above the cooker
hood or above the overhead cabinet.
This has 2 advantages:
1) The socket is not visible.
2) The appliance can easily be unplugged when necessary.
If a fixed connection is required the cooker hood should be connected by
an electrical installer registered with a competent electricity company. An
isolating device is to be provided on the fixed wiring side. Switches with
a contact opening of more than 3mm apply as isolating devices.
These include-automatic cut-out switches, fuses and contactors (VDE
0730, s. 7, Part1).

Electrical connection for the UK
Appliances with 2 wires
The appliance must be connected to fixed wiring with a
double pole switched fused spur outlet with or without pilot
lamp.
We strongly recommend the appliance to be connected only
by a qualified electrician who is a member of the NICEIC who
will comply with the IEE and any local regulations.
NOTE:
The terminology “DOUBLE POLE” means that both the live
and the neutral supplies are switched and disconnected at the
same time.

Extractor version:
● When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with
a 150mm diameter hose.
● If the fumes must be forced out through the wall, you must
obtain a MKZ sizable wall exhaust pipe (with external
exhaust and air intake), E-Nr.- 942 118 609 (Ø 150 mm)
which is one of our optional parts.
● When installing the hood, make sure you respect the
following minimum distance from the top edge of the
cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers600 mm
gas cookers650 mm
coal and oil cookers700 mm min.
● The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or
combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which
fuel-burning appliances are installed.
● It is advisable to apply for authorization from the relevant
controlling authority when connecting the outlet to an unused
chimney flue or combustion gas duct.
The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations
laid down by the relevant authorities.
● When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently
large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that
are approximately the same as the outlet hole.
● National and regional building regulations impose a number
of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances
connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters
and gas fires, in the same room.
● The national decree on fuel-burning systems specifies a
maximum depression of 0.04 bar in such rooms.
● Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to
24
a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation
hole approximately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility
of a depression being created during operation of the hood.
If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling
authority or building inspector’s office.
● Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is
“outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole
of 500-600 cm2, which is to say a larger hole, could reduce
the performance of the extractor hood.
● If the hood is used in its filtering function, it will operate
simply and safely in the above conditions without the need
for any of the aforementioned measures.
● When the hood is used in its extractor function, the following
rules must be followed to obtain optimal operation:
— short and straight outlet hose
— keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum
— never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must
always follow a gentle curve only
— keep the hose as large as possible (150 mm Ø min.).
● Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce the
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor
hood.

Hood Operation
● The hood is fitted with a variable speed motor. The most
effective use of the hood is obtained by switching it on a few
minutes before you start cooking and leaving it on a for
approximately 15 minutes after you have finished, thus
ensuring all cooking odours are eliminated. The control
switches are located on the unit’s front panel:
A -Motor OFF button
B -ON button and motor speed selection button 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - . .
C -Speed 1 LED
D -Speed 2 LED
E - Speed 3 LED
F -Intensive speed indicator LED
G -Intensive speed ON switch
This speed should be used when the concentration of cooking
fumes or odours is particularly strong (for example when frying,
cooking fish etc.). The fast speed will run for about 5 minutes and
then return to the speed previously set automatically (1, 2 or 3),
or switch off if no speed was selected.
To turn off the fast speed, before the end of the 5 minutes, press
button Aor button B.
H -OFF-ON lamp button
If the hood fails to operate correctly, briefly disconnect it from the
mains power supply for almost 5 sec. by pulling out the plug. Then
plug it in again and try once more before contacting the Technical
Assistance Service.

Safety warnings for user
● Never leave a cooking hob or ring on without a pot
or pan on top of it, to avoid the possibility of excess
heat damaging the unit. Gas, oil or coal cooker
flames in particular should never be left uncovered.
● Special care should be taken when using deep fat
fryers since the oil in them can overheat and burst
into flames.
● The risk of a fat fire increases when using dirty oil.
● It is extremely important to note that overheating
can cause a fire.
● Never carry out any flambé cooking under the
hood.
● Always disconnect the unit from the power
supply before carrying out any work on the
hood, including replacing the light bulb (take
the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch
off the automatic circuit breaker).
● It is very important to clean the hood and
replace the filter at the recommended
intervals. Failure to do so could cause grease
deposits to build up, causing a fire hazard.
29
Maintenance and care
● The hood must always be disconnected from the
mains power supply before beginning any
maintenance work.
Metal grease filter
● The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles
which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in
the external evacuation or internal recycling function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
Open the metal grease filter
● Push it towards the back of the
unit and then pull it down and
out.Fig. 4.
Hand washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with
a grease-loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly
with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the
grease filters when it are dry.
Dishwasher machine
Place grease filters in dish washer. Select most powerful
washing programme and highest temperature, at least
65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when it
are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher
a slight discoloration of the filter can occur, this does not have any
impact on its performance.
● Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never
use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
