Recirculation

In the recirculation mode the contaminated air enters the cooker hood through the grease ﬁ lters. The air is cleaned by passing through the charcoal ﬁ lters before being passed back into the kitchen through the grilles in either side of the chimney stack.

Extraction

In the extraction mode the contaminated air enters the cooker hood passing through the grease ﬁ lters and is passed out through the ducting into the atmosphere. To obtain the best performance when cooking it is advisable to switch the cooker hood on for a few minutes before you start cooking and leave it running for about 15 minutes after ﬁ nishing.

When used in the ducting mode the

charcoal ﬁ lters are not required.

Never do ﬂ ambé cooking under this

cooker hood.

during use, as over-heated fats and oils can catch ﬁ re.
