OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Iftheapparatusisequippedwiththefollowingcontrols(Fig.10):

Push-button A = On/off lights switch.

Push-button B = On/off cooker hood switch. The appliance switches on at speed level 1, If the cooker hood is on depress the push-button for 2 sec. to switch off the cooker hood. If the cooker hood is at speed level 1 it will not be necessary to depress the push-button to switch the cooker hood off. Decreases the motor speed.

Display C = Indicates the motor speed level selected and activates the timer..

Push-button D = Switches on the cooker hood. Increases the motor speed. Touching the key at 3rd speed, the intensive function runs for 10 minutes, then the appliance go back to work at the original speed. During this function the display blinks.

Key E = The Timer times the functions on activation for 15 minutes, after which they are switched off. The Timer is deactivated by re-pressing Key E.. When the Timer is activated the decimal point must flash on the display. The Timer cannot be activated if the intensive speed is functioning..

-The “clean air” function is activated by pressing key E for 2 seconds when the appliance is switched off. This switches the motor on for 10 minutes every hour at the first speed. During functioning a rotary movement of the peripheral segments must be visualised on the display..

When this time has passed the motor switches off and the fixed letter “C” must be visualised on the display until the motor re-starts after 50 minutes for another

10 minutes and so on. Press any key apart from the light keys to return to normal functioning. Press key E to deactivate the function..

• Active carbon/grease filter saturation:

-When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates with the letter F (e.g. 1 and F), the grease filters must be washed.

-When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates with the letter A (e.g. 1 and A), the carbon filters must be replaced.

After the clean filter has been positioned correctly, the electronic memory must be reset by pressing button A for approximately 5 seconds, until the indication F or A shown on the display C stops flashing.

MAINTENANCE

We recommend that the range hood is switched on before any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.

The effective performance of the range hood depends on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special attention.

The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease particles suspended in the

air, therefore is subject to saturation (the time it takes for the filter to become saturated depends on the way in which the appliance is used).

-To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is possible to use the dishwasher for this task).

-To remove filters, refer to Fig.7.

3

-After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change. This does not mean they have to be replaced..

If the replacement and washing instructions are not followed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.

The active carbon filters (on some models) are used to purify the air which is released back into the room. The filters are not washable or re-usable and must be replaced at least once every four months. The active carbon filter saturation level depends on the frequency with which the appliance is used, the type of cooking performed and the regularity with which the anti-grease filters are cleaned.

To remove filters, refer to Fig.6..

Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.9):

The light on the range hood is designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination.. Extended use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb..

To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.

Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type. Caution: do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.

CARE AND CLEANING

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning or servicing any part of the vent hood.

Reusable Metal Grease Filters

The hood has 2 metal reusable grease filters..

The metal filters trap grease released by foods on the cooktop. They also help prevent flaming foods on the cooktop from damaging the inside of the hood.

For this reason, the filters must ALWAYS be in place when the hood is used. The grease filters should be cleaned once a month, or as needed..

To remove, press the filter locks back and pull the filters down and out.

To replace, insert the rear filter tabs in the frame slots at the back of the opening. Push the filters up and lock them into place.

To clean the grease filters, soak them and then swish them around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the metal.. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.. Light brushing can be used to remove embedded dirt. Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing. They may also be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher..

NOTE: Before cleaning, make sure the charcoal filters, if present, are unclipped and removed. See the Charcoal Filters section.

Charcoal Filters (on some models)

The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned. They must be replaced.

For converting vent hood to recirculation mode (not vented to the outside), order Kit no. KIT0319. This kit contains charcoal filters.

For replacement charcoal filters, order Part no.. ACK00059..

These kits can be ordered from your GE supplier.

NOTE: Charcoal filters are not included with the hood. They must be ordered from your GE supplier.

If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through disposable charcoal filters that help remove smoke and odors.

The charcoal filters should be replaced when they are noticeably dirty or discolored (usually after 6–12 months, depending on hood usage).

NOTE: DO NOT rinse, or put charcoal filters in an automatic dishwasher.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch the surface..

1..Shake bottle well.

2..Place a small amount of CERAMA BRYTE® Stainless Steel Cleaning Polish and Conditioner on a dry cloth or dry paper towel.

3..Clean a small area (approximately 8” x 8”/20.3 cm x 20.3 cm), rubbing with the grain of the stainless steel if applicable..

4..Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or soft cloth.

5..Repeat as necessary..

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

IMPORTANT – Save these instructions for

local inspector’s use.

IMPORTANT – Observe all governing

codes and ordinances.

Note to Installer – Be sure to leave these

instructions with the Consumer.

Note to Consumer – Keep these instructions for future reference.

Skill level – Installation of this appliance requires basic mechanical and electrical skills.

Completion time – 30 minutes–3 hours

Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

Product failure due to improper installation is not covered under the Warranty.

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

WARNING – Before beginning the installation, switch power off at service panel and

lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

DUCTWORK REQUIREMENTS

NOTE: Read the ductwork sections only if you do not have existing ductwork. If you have existing ductwork, skip to the “Damage” section and proceed.

WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND

TO PROPERLY EXHAUST AIR, BE SURE TO DUCT AIR OUTSIDE— DO NOT VENT EXHAUST AIR INTO SPACES WITHIN WALLS OR CEILINGS OR INTO ATTICS, CRAWL SPACES OR GARAGES.

The venting system must exhaust to the outside.

This hood can be vented vertically through upper cabinets or horizontally through an outside wall. Ductwork is not included.

Exhaust connection:

The hood exhaust has been designed to mate with standard 6” diameter round ducting.

If a 7” round duct is required, a transition adaptor must be used*. Do not use less than a 6” diameter duct.

Maximum duct length:

For satisfactory air movement, the total duct length

of a 314” x 10” rectangular, 6” or 7” diameter round duct should not exceed 65 equivalent feet. See the

WORKSHEET–CALCULATE TOTAL EQUIVALENT DUCTWORK LENGTH section.

NOTE: It is important that ducting be installed using

the most direct route and with as few elbows as possible.

This ensures clear venting of exhaust and helps prevent blockages. Also, make sure dampers swing freely and nothing is blocking the ducts.

Elbows, transitions, wall and roofcaps, etc., present additional resistance to airflow and are equivalent to a section of straight duct longer than their actual physical size. When calculating the total duct length, add the equivalent lengths of all transitions and adaptors plus the length of all straight duct sections. The charts on the following pages show you how to calculate total equivalent ductwork length using the approximate feet of equivalent length of some typical ducts.

*IMPORTANT: If a rectangular-to-round transition adaptor is used, the bottom

corners of the damper will have to be cut to fit, using the tin snips, in order to allow free movement of the damper. Equivalent lengths of duct pieces

are based on actual tests and reflect requirements for good venting performance with any hood.

• FIxing to the wall:

Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.3). Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted, tightly secure the hood using the screws A (Fig.5). For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.

• Regarding the installation on plasterboard wall:

Make sure that the screws are well fixed to the bearing elements of the wall. If that is not possible, it is necessary to install a carrying support structure made by joists from 2 to 4 inches with the points of anchorage of the screws.

• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:

Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.4). Then fix it near the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.4) in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.3. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.5). Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.4).

• Filtering version (carbon filters on some models)

Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained in the kit.

The filters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.6).
