Safety warnings
For the installer
• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must
be fitted with a hose having preferably the same
diameter as the outlet hole.
Attention: The hose is not supplied and must
be purchased separately.
• When installing the hood, make sure you
observe the following minimum distance from
the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers 400 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob
specify a greater distance, this must be adhered
to.
• The national Standard on fuel-burning systems
specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar in
such rooms.
• 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.
• The air outlet installation must comply with the
regulations laid down by the relevant local
authorities.
• When the unit is used in extraction mode, 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.
• Hoods can only be used safely with appliances
connected to 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 recirculation mode, 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 extraction mode,
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.
- keep the hose as large as possible (preferably
the same diameter as the outlet hole).
- the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90° will reduce the
efficiency of the hood and reduce the airflow.
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will
drastically reduce the performance and increase
the noise levels of the extractor hood.

Page 4
For the user
• The cooker hood is designed to extract
unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not
extract steam.
• Always cover lighted elements, to prevent
excess heat from damaging the appliance. In
the case of oil, gas and coal fired cookers it is
essential to avoid open flames.
• Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on
the cooker top/cooker under careful control.
• The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to
overheating.
• The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil
being used is dirty.
• 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, resulting in a
fire hazard.
• The appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without supervision.
• Older children must be supervised if using the
appliance.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is
switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid
the possibility of electric shock.

Description of the Appliance
• The cooker hood is designed to extract
unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will
not extract steam.
• The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and
can also be used with a recirculation mode by
fitting a charcoal filter.
Extraction mode
• In this mode fumes are extracted to the outside
via a hose connected to the coupling ring A.
Fig. 1.
The connection ring is reachable opening door
B (hold the door with your hand when opening
and closing it).
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose
should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole.

Control Panel
• Best results are obtained by using a low speed
for normal conditions and a high speed when
odours are more concentrated.
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start
cooking.
The hood should be left on after cooking for
about 15 minutes or until all the odours have
disappeared.

Maintenance and Care
• The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any
maintenance work.
Cleaning the hood
• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp
cloth and a solution of water and mild washing
up liquid.
• Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable
cleaning products or products containing bleach.
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s
protective grid.
• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill
using a damp cloth and mild washing up liquid.
• It is extremely important to clean the unit and
change the filters at the recommended intervals.
Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to
build up that could constitute a fire hazard.
Metal grease filter
• The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb
grease particles which form during cooking and
it must always be used, either in the external
extraction or internal re-circulation function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be
removed and washed, either by hand or in the
dishwasher, every four weeks.
Removing the metal grease filter
• Pull the handle downwards, then remove the
filter. Fig. 3.
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 they are dry.
Dishwasher
Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select
most powerful washing programme and highest
temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process.
Refit the grease filters when they are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the
dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter
can occur, this does not have any impact on its
performance.
• Clean the inner housing using a hand hot
solution only(never use caustic detergents,
abrasive powders or brushes).
Warning
• Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning
the unit and changing the filters will cause a fire
hazard. You are therefore strongly
recommended to follow these instructions.
• The manufacturer declines all responsibility for
any damage to the motor or any fire damage
linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to
observe the above safety recommendations.

Charcoal filter
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you
want to use the hood in recirculation mode.
• To do this you will need an original charcoal
filter (available from your local Service Force
Centre).
• Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE
charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated.
With normal use the filter should be cleaned
every second month (when using the hood 2,5
hours per day,on avarage). The best way to
clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal
detergent and choose the highest temperature
(65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no
food parts gets stuck on the filter and later
causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal,
the filter should be dried in an oven for 10
minutes with a maximum temperature of 100º
C.
After approximately three years of use, the
charcoal filter should be replaced with a new, as
the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
• Fitting - Fig. 4
Remove the frame i which supports the filter h
by turning 90° the two knobs g.
Insert the charcoal filter inside the frame and
put all parts back in their place.
• To remove proceed in the reverse order.
• Always specify the hood model code number
and serial number when ordering replacement
filters. This information is shown on the rating
plate located on the inside of the unit.
• The charcoal filter can be ordered from your
local Service Force Centre.
