Cooker Hood Controls

The cooker hood functions are controlled by five push button switches located centrally in the control fascia.

To Operate

Select the required fan speed and light if required.

The appliance can be installed to recirculate or extract contaminated air. The cooker hood is more

effective when used in the extraction mode.

Recirculation

The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the recirculation mode with the charcoal filter fitted.

The contaminated air is cleaned by passing through the filters and then back into the kitchen.

The activated charcoal filter absorbs odours arising from cooking. In use it will slowly become saturated in grease and less effective. The filter normally requires changing at least every three months or more frequently if the hood is used for more than three hours per day.

Extraction

The contaminated air enters the cooker hood passing through the grease filters and out through the ducting into the atmosphere.

When used in the extract mode the charcoal filter is not required and must be removed.

Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.

Take extra care when frying and never leave frying pans unattended during use, as overheated fats and oils can catch fire.

Do not leave naked flames under the cooker hood.

Ensure the hood is switched ON before using the hob.

Ensure heating areas on your hob are covered with pots and pans when using the hob and cooker hood simultaneously.

Ensure not to damage the charcoal filter when cleaning or replacing as the activated charcoal inside is saturated with grease, which will stain if it comes into contact with clothing or furnishings.

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.

External Cleaning

The metal casing, visor and chimney should be cleaned at least once a month to keep the hood looking like new. Wipe over the hood with a soft cloth wrung out in mild soapy water and then dry thoroughly.

Always wear protective gloves when cleaning the hood.

Never use excessive amounts of water when cleaning particularly around the control panel.
