Frequently Asked Questions - Oretta IV/A/60 T.Grezzo ELICA

How to install the Elica Oretta IV/A/60 T.Grezzo cooker hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. The hood is fixed to the wall at a height of 65-75 cm above an electric hob or 75-85 cm above a gas hob. Use the supplied plugs and screws. Connect the evacuation duct (150 mm) or install the charcoal filter for recirculation mode.

How to clean the grease filters?

The aluminum grease filters should be cleaned every 2-3 months. Remove them and wash them in the dishwasher at low temperature (max 65°C) or by hand with mild soap. Dry them well before putting them back.

When to replace the charcoal filter?

The charcoal filter should be replaced every 6 to 12 months depending on use. It is not washable. For the recirculation version, regularly check its condition and order a compatible replacement filter.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

First check the electrical supply: fuse or circuit breaker. Make sure the plug is working. If the LED indicator is off, the lighting module may be defective. Contact after-sales service.

How to adjust the extraction speed?

Use the push buttons on the front: press the V button to select the speed (1, 2, 3). A long press activates boost mode (intensive speed) for 5 minutes, then automatically returns to speed 2.

The hood makes noise, is this normal?

A noise level of 55-65 dB(A) is normal at maximum speed. If the noise is abnormal, check that the duct is not blocked, the filters are clean, and the hood is securely fixed. A whistling sound may indicate an air leak.

Can the hood be used without external evacuation?

Yes, in recirculation mode. An activated charcoal filter (sold separately) must be installed in the hood. The air is filtered and returned to the room. This mode is less efficient than extraction but useful if no duct is available.

How to change the LED bulb?

The LED lighting is integrated and not replaceable by the user. In case of failure, contact an authorized technician to replace the complete LED module.

Dimensions of the Oretta IV/A/60 T.Grezzo hood?

Width 60 cm, depth 50 cm, chimney height adjustable from 67 to 103 cm. Allow a wall space of at least 60 cm wide and 50 cm deep.

How to order spare parts?

Spare parts (filters, remote control, etc.) are available on the Elica website or from authorized dealers. Use the model number Oretta IV/A/60 T.Grezzo to find the exact references.

Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version

The hood is equipped with a top air outlet for discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).

Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Filter version

When there is no exhaust duct for venting outdoors, you can use a carbon filter.

The air is depurated by the filter and put again in the surrounding.

Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted.

Installation

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and 75cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.

Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Mounting

Before beginning installation:

• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.
• To facilitate installation, remove the fat filters and the other parts allowed and described here, dismantle and mount it.
  To remove see also the relative paragraphs.

- Remove the active carbon (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want to use the hood in the filtering version.

- Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

- If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware in it.

- In addition check whether near the installation area of the hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted) an electric socket is available and it is possible to connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only suction version).

- Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g. installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the passage of the discharge tube).

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Operation

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights.

Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours. It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking and to leave in operation during cooking and for another 15 minutes approximately after terminating cooking.

Maintenance

ATTENTION! Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse.

Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket.

Cleaning

The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.

Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.

Grease filter

Traps cooking grease particles.

The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Fig. 1

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.

In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months.

The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.

It may be one of the following types:

Circular filter - 2 pieces - with and without central handle - Figs. 2-3):

They are placed at the ends of the motor, therefore proceed rotating the carbon filters (or the central handle - Fig. 3) anticlockwise until they detach.

Rectangular type - Fig. 4:

These are fixed to the cooker-hood structure. You should

unwind the screws that keep the carbon filters to the cookerhood.

To re-ensemble proceed using the reverse of the above procedure.
