To Operate
Select the required fan speed and light if required.
The appliance can be installed to recirculate or extract contaminated air. The cooker hood is more effective when used in the extraction mode.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the recirculation mode with the charcoal filter fitted.
In the recirculation mode the contaminated air is passed through the charcoal filters to be purified and recirculated into the kitchen through the recirculation grilles in either side of the chimney stack.
Extraction
In the extraction mode the contaminated air enters the cooker hood passing through the grease filters 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 finishing.
When used in the ducting mode the charcoal filters are not required.
Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fats and oils can catch fire.
Do not leave naked flames under the cooker hood.
Ensure heating areas on your hob are covered with pots and pans when using the hob and cooker hood simultaneously.

External Cleaning

Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning particularly around the control panel.
