Description of the functions

The cooker hood works:

. . . by air extraction

The air is drawn in, cleaned by the grease filter and directed outside.

The cooker hood is fitted with a non-return flap.

This flap is closed when the fan is switched off. No exchange of room air and outside air can take place. When the cooker hood is switched on the nonreturn flap opens for the cooking smells to be blown directly outside.

. . . with an external fan

The EX models are designed to be connected to an external fan located outside the room.

The external fan is connected to the cooker hood by a control cable and is operated by the control panel on the cooker hood.

Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use could, however lead to risk of accidents to the user and damage to the appliance.

Before using this appliance for the first time read the operating instructions carefully. They contain important information on safety, use and maintenance of the appliance. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner.

Appropriate use

The appliance is intended for domestic use only.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper use or by non-observance of these instructions.

Technical safety

Before connecting the cooker hood to the mains supply make

sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing

system which complies with local and national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is tested by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system. (e.g. electric shock).

Installation work and repairs may only be carried out by suitably

qualified and competent persons to ensure safety. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not be held responsible.

The appliance is only completely isolated from the mains supply

when:

it is switched off at the fused spur connection, or

the mains fuse is withdrawn

Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead.

Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.(e.g. danger of overheating).

Warning and Safety instructions

Use of the appliance

Do not let small children play with the appliance or its controls. Super-

vise its use by the elderly or infirm.

Never use an open flame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the

danger of fire do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on the cooker hood could draw flames into the filters. Fat particles drawn into the cooker hood present a fire hazard.

When using the cooker hood over a gas hob ensure that any burners

in use are always covered by a pan. Otherwise flames could be drawn up by the suction of the cooker hood, parts of which could then be damaged.

Always switch the cooker hood on when a cooking zone is in use,

otherwise condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.

When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc, do not leave the pans unattended. Never

leave an open grill unattended when grilling. Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood on fire.

Do not use the cooker hood without the grease filter in place.

This way you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance and hindering its smooth operation.

Clean or change the filter regularly. An over-greasy filter is a fire ha-

zard.

Under no circumstances use a steam cleaner to clean this ap-

pliance. Pressurised steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Installation

The distance between the top of the cooker/hob and the bottom of

the cooker hood must measure at least:

55 cm above electric cookers/hobs

65 cm above gas cookers/hobs

65 cm above an Open grill.

For other manufacturer’s cooking appliances maintain the safety distance as recommended in their Installation and Operating instructions.

If more than one appliance is fitted beneath the cooker hood and they have different minimum safety distances to the cooker hood, select the higher distance.

Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid

fuel stoves.

All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable ma-

terial. These can be obtained from the Spare Parts department or from builders’ merchants.

The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue

which is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.

If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct no

longer used for other purposes, take professional advice.

Warning and Safety instructions

When using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating ap-

pliance which depends on the air in the room, (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooker, gas hob or gas oven) special care must be taken, as the action of the cooker hood extracts air from the room, which these types of heater need for combustion.

In order to ensure safe operation, and to prevent the gases given off by the heating appliances from being drawn back into the room when the extractor and the heater are in operation simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible.

Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, in windows, doors and outside wall vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the extractor can only be switched on when the heating appliance is switched off or vice-versa.

N.B.: The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken into account.

If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a “Corgi” installer must be sought.

In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infesta-

tion by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which might be caused by cock-

roaches or other vermin will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.

Appliances with external fans

For appliances with an external fan motor fitted (EX models) the connection of the two units must be made using the connection cable and the plug connectors. Make sure the correct combination of the two appliances has been selected.

Separate fitting instructions are supplied with the external fan.

Disposal of your old appliance

Before discarding an old appliance switch off and disconnect

it from the power supply. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse. This should be done by a competent person.

The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by non-observance of these instructions.

Operation

Main switch

When the main switch is set to “I” the cooker hood is ready for operation. When the cooker hood is switched off using the main switch, it will retain the most recent setting when next switched on.

Switching on

Use the power level touch control to select the power level required.

– Touch control +

= higher setting.

Touch control

= lower setting.

The indicator lamps show which power level has been chosen.

– Press the On/Off touch control.

The indicator lamp for this touch control lights up and at the same time the motor switches on. The motor runs at power level “lI”.

Run-on option

If the air still needs to be cleared after cooking, the cooker hood can be set to continue running.

The fan motor will then switch off automatically after a further 5 or 15 minutes.

Selecting the power level

Depending on how much the air needs to be filtered, there are four power levels available. For normal cooking a low to medium level is usually sufficient. For frying or cooking food with a strong aroma the highest level marked IS (Intensive Setting) is recommended.

– Press the run-on option touch control.

Press once = 5 minutes run-on time Press twice = 15 minutes run-on time Press three times = fan is switched off

The relevant indicator lamp glows to confirm the time selected.

To deactivate the run-on option time, press the run-on option touch control until both indicator lamps go out.
