Frequently Asked Questions - DA 911 GS Dominox

What is the minimum distance between the hob and the hood?

The minimum safety distance is 650 mm from the hob surface to the hood.

Can I use the hood without ducting?

Yes, the hood can be used in recirculation mode with an activated charcoal filter (sold separately or included).

How often should I clean the grease filters?

Clean the metal grease filters every 2 months of operation. For heavy usage, clean more frequently. They are dishwasher safe.

How do I replace the charcoal filter?

Remove the grease filters, unhook the old charcoal filter, and hook in a new one. Replace every 4 months or more often for heavy usage. The charcoal filter is not washable.

What type of light bulb does the hood use?

It uses a 20 W halogen bulb. To replace, remove the snap-on cover and gently pull the lamp from the holder.

Can I install the hood myself?

Installation requires electrical and mechanical skills. Follow the manual carefully. The hood must be connected to a two-pole switch with a contact gap of at least 3 mm. Ensure proper earthing for Class I appliances.

What is the diameter of the air outlet?

The standard outlet is 150 mm. A reducer flange (ø 150-120 mm) is included for 120 mm ducting.

Is the hood suitable for use over a gas hob?

Yes, but maintain the minimum distance of 650 mm and ensure adequate room ventilation to prevent backflow of combustion gases.

How do I adjust the speed?

Use the control panel buttons: T2 (speed 1), T3 (speed 2), T4 (speed 3). Press T1 to turn the motor off.

What should I do if the hood is not working?

First, check the power supply and that the plug is connected. Ensure the grease filters are clean and that the charcoal filter (if used) is not saturated. If the problem persists, consult the manual or contact technical support.

The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

INSTALLATION

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing. Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.

USE

• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flames.
• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk of fire
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental 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.

MAINTENANCE

• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period (Fire hazard).
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.
