Functional description
The hood offers two modes of operation:
Air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Recirculation mode
Air is drawn through the grease filters and an active charcoal filter. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen through a vent at the top of the hood’s chimney.
The recirculation mode requires an install kit and charcoal filter which are optional accessories.
Before using the hood in recirculation mode, ensure that the active charcoal filter is in place, see "Cleaning and care".

The halogen bulbs are very hot
,
when in use. They stay hot for some time after turned off. Use caution, danger of burns. Wet cleaning the hot bulbs will cause damage. Wait a few minutes after turning them off before cleaning.
Cleaning the casing
Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface.
Avoid:
cleaning agents containing soda,
acids or chlorides,
abrasive cleaning agents
e.g. powder or cream cleansers,
abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or
sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents.
These will damage the surface.
The following instructions for cleaning "Stainless steel" surfaces and "Stainless steel colored controls" should be followed in addition to the general "Cleaning the casing" instructions.
Special instructions for stainless steel surfaces (not applicable to the controls)
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can be applied.
Special instructions for colored casings (Special order)
^
All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned with a mild solution of warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate the electronics and cause damage.
^
Wipe dry using a soft cloth.
It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colors and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.
Stainless steel colored controls
These controls may become dis colored or damaged if not cleaned regularly. Do not use a stainless steel cleaner on these controls.

WARNING
,
Danger of toxic fumes.
Air extraction
Exhaust ducting and connections
Use smooth or flexible pipework made from approved non-flammable materials for exhaust ducting.
Gas cooking appliances release carbon monoxide that can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, the exhaust gases extracted by the hood should be vented outside of the building only.
Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or in attics, crawl spaces or garages.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork.
Please read and follow the
"IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.
To achieve the most efficient air extraction and quietest noise levels, consider the following:
The diameter of the ductwork should
not be less than 6" (150 mm).
If flat ducting is used, the cross
section must not be smaller than the cross section of the ventilation exhaust.
– The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible.
– Use ductwork with a wide radius.
– The exhaust duct must not be bent
or compressed.
– Make sure all connections are
secure.
– Where the ductwork is horizontal, it
must slope away from the hood at
1
least
/8" per foot (1 cm per meter) to prevent condensation dripping into the appliance.
If the exhaust is ducted through an outside wall, a Telescopic Wall Vent can be used.
31
Air extraction
If the exhaust is ducted into an
inactive flue, the air must be expelled parallel to the flow direction of the flue.
Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Important
If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may need to be insulated to reduce condensation.
Condensate trap
optional accessory
In some cases, a condensate trap may also be required to collect and evaporate any condensate which may occur. This optional accessory is available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and 6" (150 mm) in diameter.
When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and if possible directly above the exhaust outlet.
