Safety warnings
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 whilst using this 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.
For the installer
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 120mm diameter
hose.
When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum
distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces:
electric cookers500 mm
gas cookers700 mm
coal and oil cookers800 mm min.
The hood can be installed above these heights but for optimum performance it
should be installed at the distance quoted for the appropriate heat source.
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.
3
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 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.
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
inspectors 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:
The ducting must be fire retardant.
The length should be no more than:
3 meters with 1 90 degree bend
2 meters with 2 90 degree bends
Bends of more than 90 degrees will reduce the efficiency of the hood and reduce
the air flow.
Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance
and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.

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 one charcoal filter.

Extraction
In this version fumes are extracted to the
outside via a hose connected to the
coupling ring. Fig. 1.
In order to obtain the best performance the
hose should have a diameter equal to the
outlet hole.
Recirculation Mode
The air is filtered through a charcoal filter
and returned to the kitchen. Fig. 2.
You will need an original charcoal filter for
the filtering function. (See Special
Accessories).
