afety recommendations

Please become familiar with the safety recommendations, before installing and
using your hood.

This hood is designed for normal household use. This hood contains no asbestos.

- Do not allow naked flames to burn beneath the duct, i.e. do not cook " flambé " dishes

or allow a gas ring to burn with no receptacle placed on it (extracted flames could damage the duct).

- Frying under the duct should be constantly monitored.

- Repair work should only be carried out by an approved specialist.

- The metal filters should be regularly cleaned.

- The hood must not be installed or used over a fuel burning (wood, coal, etc.) stove.

To obtain optimum efficiency from your hood:

- You should preferably use the rear cooking rings on your cooker. We recommend that the
hood should be switched on from the beginning of the cooking and, in certain cases, may be
allowed to run for a few minutes after the end of the cooking.
Note :

- When a cooking hood is used simultaneously with other equipment burning gas or simi­lar fuels, the room must be adequately ventilated.
When the duct is running at max. power, the air in a kitchen is entirely evacuated, and thus
replaced, in a few minutes.

IMPORTANT

- In the case of a kitchen heated by equipment connected to a chimney (e.g. a stove, etc.), the
hood must be installed in recirculating mode.

- Do not use the hood without the metal filters.
