Description of the Appliance

• The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
• The hood is supplied in recirculation filter version (activated charcoal filter supplied) but it can be used, removing the activated charcoal filter, in the venting version.

Extraction mode

• In this mode fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose connected to the coupling ring.
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole.

Extraction mode

Recirculation mode

• The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen.
• You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation mode. (See Special Accessories).

Recirculation mode

Control Panel

• Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and a high speed when odours are more concentrated.

Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking.

The hood should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have disappeared.

Maintenance and Care

• 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.

Metal grease filter

• The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external extraction or internal re-circulation function.

Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.

Removing the metal grease filter

• Use the spring handle and remove the filter downward.

Hand washing

Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.

Dishwasher

Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65^ . Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.

When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance.

• Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products or products containing bleach.

Charcoal filter

• The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in recirculation mode.
• To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (available from your local Service Force Centre).
• Replacing the charcoal filter

The charcoal filter cannot be washed nor regenerated.

The charcoal filter should be replaced every 4 months under normal use.

Replacement filters are available from your local Service Force Centre.

Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated.

With normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month (when using the hood 2,5 hours per day, on averaging). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65^) . Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of 100^ .

After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be replaced with a new one, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.

Fitting

1. Insert the holding frame for the charcoal filter in the shaft of the hood with the 2 lugs facing upwards and then clip into the lower holes.
2. Fix the holding frame on the lower part of the housing of the hood with the 2 screws supplied.
3. Fit the charcoal filter (see paragraph "Charcoal filter")

4. Refit the grease filters. Push-in the visor.

5. To remove proceed in the reverse order.

• Always specify the hood model number, serial number and product number code when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the rating plate located on the inside of the unit.

If your appliance fails to work properly please carry out the following checks.

Symptom	Solution
The cooker hood will not start...	Check that: The hood is connected to the electricity supply. Check that a fan speed has been selected.
The cooker hood is not working	Check that: The fan speed is set high enough for the task. The grease filters are clean. The kitchen is adequately vented to allow the entry of fresh air. If set up for recirculation, check that the charcoal filter is still effective. If set up for extraction, check that the ducting and outlets are not blocked.
The cooker hood has switched off during operation...	The safety cut-out device has been tripped. Turn off the hob and then wait for the device to reset. If the hood has been installed below the heights indicated in the installation instructions the motor will cut-out frequently which will damage the hood.

If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Centre, quoting the model number, serial number and product number code.

Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any in-guarantee service calls.
