Frequently Asked Questions - ELTHDC110SG RANGEMASTER

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

The minimum safety distance is 650 mm. For gas hobs, refer to the hob instructions as a greater distance may be required.

Can the hood be used in recirculation mode?

Yes. For recirculation, you must install activated charcoal filters (not included). The hood then filters and recirculates the air back into the kitchen.

How often should I clean the grease filters?

Clean the metal grease filters every 2 months of operation, or more frequently for heavy use. They are dishwasher safe.

How do I replace the activated charcoal filter?

Remove the grease filters, then release the fixing hooks on the saturated charcoal filter. Fit the new filter by hooking it into its seating and refit the grease filters. Replace every 4 months.

How do I replace the light bulb?

Remove the 2 screws fixing the lighting support, pull out the support, extract the old 20 W halogen lamp, and insert a new one ensuring the pins are properly aligned. Refit the support and screws.

What is the required air outlet diameter for ducted installation?

Use a pipe with a minimum diameter of 120 mm. A reducer flange from 150 mm to 120 mm is supplied.

Is the hood safe to use with a gas hob?

Yes, but you must ensure adequate ventilation in the room to prevent backflow of combustion fumes. The hood must not be connected to flues carrying combustion fumes.

Can I install the hood myself?

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician. The hood must be securely fixed to the wall at a height of at least 650 mm above the hob and connected to the mains with a two-pole switch.

What should I do if the hood is not working?

Check that the power supply is connected and the mains voltage matches the rating plate. Ensure the grease filters are clean and not blocked. If the motor does not start, contact technical service.

Does the hood have a warranty?

Warranty details are not specified in the manual. Contact Rangemaster or refer to the purchase documentation for warranty information.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

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. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
• In the event of damage to the power cable, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by the technical service department, in order to prevent any risks.
• If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance specified above, this has to be taken into account. Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

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.
• “CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.”

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.

Wall drilling and bracket fixing

Wall marking:

• Draw a vertical line on the supporting wall up to the ceiling, or as high as practical, at the centre of the area in which the hood will be installed.
• Draw a horizontal line at 650 mm above the hob. Place bracket 7.2.1 on the wall as shown about 1-2 mm from the ceiling or upper limit aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical reference line.
• Mark the wall at the centres of the holes in the bracket.
• Place bracket 7.2.1 on the wall as shown at X mm below the first bracket (X = height of the upper chimney section supplied), aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical line.
• Mark the wall at the centres of the holes in the bracket.
• Mark a reference point as indicated at 116 mm from the vertical reference line and 328 mm above the horizontal reference line.
• Repeat this operation on the other side.
• Drill 8 mm holes at all the centre points marked.
• Insert the wall plugs 11 in the holes.
  • Fix the brackets using the 12a (4,2 x 44,4) screws supplied.
• Insert the two screws 12a (4,2 x 44,4) supplied in the hood body fixing holes, leaving a gap of 5-6 mm between the wall and the head of the screw.

Mounting the hood body

• Before attaching the hood body, tighten the two screws Vr located on the hood body mounting points.
• Hook the hood body onto the screws 12a.
  • Fully tighten the support screws 12a.
• Adjust the screws Vr to level the hood body.

Connections

DUCTED VERSION AIR EXHAUST SYSTEM

When installing the ducted version, connect the hood to the chimney using either a flexible or rigid pipe 150 or 125 mm, the choice of which is left to the installer.

• To install a 125 mm air exhaust connection, insert the reducer flange 9 on the hood body air outlet and the adapting ring 120-125 10 on the reducer flange.
• Fix the pipe in position using sufficient pipe clamps (not supplied).
• Remove any activated charcoal filters.

RECIRCULATION VERSION AIR OUTLET

- Assemble the two halves of the hood body extension piece 14.

- Push fit the assembled hood body extension piece 14 onto the air outlet.

- Push fit connection 15 onto the hood body extension piece 14.

- Insert the connection extension pieces laterally 14.1 in connection 15.

- Make sure that the outlet of the extension pieces 14.1 is horizontally and vertically aligned with the chimney outlets. If this is not the case, adjust the position by either reversing the connection extension pieces 14.1 or by cutting the hood body extension 14 along one of the thinner section channels denoting the pre-fixed lengths, then reassemble as described previously.

- The air outlet directional grills 8a - 8b must be fitted after the lower outlet duct has been installed.

- Ensure that the activated charcoal filters have been inserted.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

- Connect the hood to the mains through a two-pole switch having a contact gap of at least 3 mm.

- Remove the grease filters (see paragraph Maintenance) being sure that the connector of the feeding cable is correctly inserted in the socket placed on the side of the fan.
