Specifications of your Cooker Hood
Congratulations on purchasing a Cooker Hood!
To fully enjoy using your appliance long into the future,
please firstly familiarise yourself with its specifications,
safety advice and operational instructions included in this
manual. You will also need this manual to ensure that your
Cooker Hood has been installed properly.
Your cooker hood can work either as an extraction fan or as
an air recirculator. Whichever mode you choose, you will
need to bear in mind that the extractor calls for ducting (not
included) to be worked from the exhaust of your fan, while
the recirculation function will require the replacement of
carbon filters.
Please see the installation section of this manual for details.

THE CARBON FILTERS.
IMPORTANT:
Cleaning your Cooker Hood:
Before cleaning, always ensure that you have
switched your cooker hood OFF at the omni-polar switch,
set at the wall from the cable:
Cleaning
 Clean the external parts with
mild liquid detergents on a
damp cloth.
 Never use abrasive powder,
corrosive solvents or brushes.
 Never insert pointed objects
into the motor’s protective grid.
 Only clean the control panel
and filter grill with a damp
cloth and delicate detergents.
________________________________________________
 Be sure to replace the
carbon filters at the
recommended intervals.
Build up could cause a
fire hazard.
 Never take out the
grease filters and
attempt to clean the
space above where they
are set.
Anti-Grease Grille
 Your cooker hood includes an anti-grease grille
which helps a b s o rb vapour-suspended gr ease
particles to protect your kitchen & furniture from
greasy residues.
 The metal grille may become inflammable if it
becomes saturated with greasy residue.
9 To prevent this fire hazard, the grille should be
cleaned regularly (depending on use) every 10-15
12
days and at least once a month in hot water with
normal washing-up detergent. DO NOT USE A
DISHWASHER TO ACHIEVE THIS.
Maintenance - Cleaning the Anti-grease Filters
First remove the grille by pulling down on it. Undo the
side catches.
You can now clean the anti-grease filter grilles.
9 Soak them for about one hour in hot water with a
grease-loosening detergent then rinse off thoroughly
with hot water.
9 Repeat the process if needed. Refit the grease grille
once it has dried.
9 Refit the grease grilles when dry.
9 PLEASE NOTE: DISCOLOURATION OF THE GREASE
FILTER CAN TAKE PLACE WHEN CLEANED IN A
DISHWASHER, ETC. Do not worry about the slight
13
discolouration of the grille –its performance won’t
be affected.
Let the filter grilles dry thoroughly before refitting
them.
Maintenance – Changing the Light Bulb and Carbon Filter
a) Changing the light bulb
a) Changing the light bulb

Carbon Filter.
Your Cooker Hood uses a
pair of CARBON FILTERS to
purify the air for the air
recirculation function.
You will find that the filters
will attach to both sides of
the fan motor (please see
figures at bottom of page).
The active carbon filters must
be replaced regularly, at least
once every three months,
to allow normal operation.
Before starting to fit the carbon
filter, turn the omni-polar
switch off at the wall.
CHANGING THE CARBON FILTER
1) Press the handle of the metal grease
filter towards the rear part of the unit
until it is released from the front
housing, and remove it by pressing
