• Before installing the electrical connections, you should:
– Verify that the indicated electrical data coincide with the voltage values and frequency of the
electrical circuit in the house where the rangehood is to be installed;
– Check that the premises has electrical protection against short circuits and electrocution, pursuant
to the applicable legislation;
– Always switch o the current using the double-pole switch before maintenance and turn the power
on again for normal use only when the operation has been completed.
• DO NOT INSTALL THIS APPLIANCE IF YOU FIND IT DAMAGED.
• If this product is installed damaged, neither the supplier, nor the retailer, will be responsible for the
costs associated with the repair, replacement, removal or re-installation of the appliances.
• Please read the entire instructions before installing the rangehood, always switch power o prior to
installation. All electrical work must be done by a registered electrician in accordance with local and
national electrical codes as applicable. For your safety, this product must be earthed.
• The power socket must be accessible and enable the end user to isolate the rangehood from the
power for the purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.
• Check the contents of the packaging, check all electrical functions of the canopy before installation.
Canopy is heavy. Please ensure adequate care when installing to prevent personal injury.
• A power outlet should be within reach of the power cord exit from the rangehood.
• The canopy hood is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or metal capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• There must be adequate ventilation of the room when the rangehood is used at the same time as
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• There is a re risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions. You must read the
details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning.
• Do not ambé under the rangehood. This will void the warranty.
• Exhaust air must not be discharged into an existing ue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• The minimum distance between the hob surface and the lowest part of the rangehood is 650mm. This
distance shall be at least 650mm, if the rangehood is installed over a gas hob. If the instructions for the
gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.
• Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the discharge of
exhaust air is fullled. Even a partial obstruction will restrict the eciency of the rangehood.
• Stainless steel is very easily damaged during installation if abraded or knocked by tools. Protect the
rangehood with the cardboard box or plastic bag during installation.

near the air outlet tube.
Maintenance and Service
• Always switch o and disconnect power before cleaning.
• The rangehood surface should be cleaned with soft cloth and non-corrosive detergent. Wash with
warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Never use abrasive detergent, scouring pads, steel wool or
solvents on any part of this appliance, Always make sure to dry the appliance after cleaning and never
leave wet, as this will cause irreparable damage.

• Particular care must be taken with the aluminium lters which must be periodically cleaned (at least
every month, this will vary depending on frequency of cooking and type of foods cooked). Remove
the grease lters and wash them either by hand using hot soapy water or in the dishwasher using
mild detergent. Do not scrub. Note - some discolouration of the frame may occur when washing in the
dishwasher Caution: Never use abrasive or oil based liquid cleaners.
• If the grease lters are very dirty, the motor will extract only a small quantity of air, which reduces
its eciency. The grease deposits that build up on the lter are highly ammable and COULD EASILY
CATCH FIRE. The manufacturer is exonerated from all responsibility in the event of re due to poor
maintenance of the grease lters.
