Installation
•Any installation work must be undertaken by a qualified electrician or a competent person.
•This hood must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions and all measurements must be adhered to.

YOUR APPLIANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
To obtain the best performance it is advisable to switch on the hood a few minutes before you start cooking and leave it running for approximately 15 minutes after finishing.
Cooker Hood Controls
The cooker hood functions are controlled by two slide switches, located centrally in the front edge of the metal grille panel.
L.Light ON/OFF control 0 - Off
1 - On
V.Fan Speed Control Position 0 - Off Position 1 - Low Position 2 - Normal Position 3 - Boost
To Operate
Select the required functions.
4
The appliance can be installed to recirculate or extract contaminated air. The cooker hood is more effective when used in the extraction mode.
Extraction
In the extraction mode the contaminated air enters the cooker hood, passes through the grease filter and out through the ducting to the atmosphere.
Recirculation
In the recirculation mode contaminated air is passed through the charcoal filters to be purified and recirculated into the kitchen through a recirculation grille. Ensure the charcoal filters are in position.
When the ducting mode is selected the charcoal filters are not required.
Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
Never leave frying pans unattended during use as over-heated 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.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the mains supply.
The cooker hood must be kept clean, as a build up of grease or fat can be a fire hazard.
The external surfaces of the hood should be cleaned regularly. Wipe the cooker hood frequently with warm soapy water using a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
Always wear protective gloves when cleaning the hood.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning particularly around the control panel.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filters absorb the odours from cooking. They will slowly become saturated and gradually less effective.
The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, we recommend they are replaced every 3-6 months or more often if the hood is used for more than 3 hours per day.
To Remove/Replace the Charcoal
Filters
1.Remove the lower grille, supporting the grille with one hand and draw down on the two grey handles (located on each side of the grille).
2. The charcoal filters are handed and should be fitted one at a time.
3.Insert one end of the filter into the slots in the fan housing then lower the other end until the tab engages the slot in the casing.
6
Synthetic Grease Filter
The grease filter has saturation indicators, which are small squares made from a series of dots. When the white paper inside the squares becomes saturated with grease the coloured dots start to run and spread across the paper, indicating that the filter has reached saturation point and must be replaced.
The synthetic grease filter cannot be cleaned.
It cannot be washed.
To Replace the Synthetic Grease
Filter
1.Remove the lower grille.
2.Push the wire retaining clips to the side and remove.
3.Clean the metal grille and clips before replacing the paper grease filter.
The clips have sharp points, handle with care and keep away from children.
This appliance is a possible fire hazard if the grease and charcoal filters are not replaced as recommended.
Changing the Light Bulb
The bulb should be replaced with a 220-240 volt 40 watt clear cylindrical shape bulb with a small Edison (E14) screw thread.
Replacement filters, and light bulbs can be obtained from your local Service Force Centre.
