USER MANUAL DHD694XE1 DE DIETRICH

The distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lower part of the hood must be at least 65 cm. If the instructions for installation for the hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.

The air collected must not be conveyed into a duct used to blow off smokes from appliances fed with an energy other than electricity (central heating systems, thermosiphons, water-heaters, etc.).

Comply with the official instructions provided by the competent authorities in merit when installing the disposal duct. In addition, exhaust air should not be discharged into a wall cavity, unless the cavity is designed for that purpose.

The room must be well aerated in case a hood and some other heat equipment fed with an energy other than electricity (gas, oil, coal heaters, etc) operate at the same time.

In fact the intake hood, disposing of air, could create a vacuum in the room. The vacuum should not exceed 0,04mbar. This prevents the gas exhausted by the heat source from being intaken again. It is therefore advisable to ensure the room contains air taps able to ensure a steady flow of fresh air.

Check the data label inside the appliance; if the symbol (回) is printed, read the following: this appliance has such technical particulars that it belongs to class II insulation, therefore it must not be earthed.

The following warning is valid in the United Kingdom only: in case your cable is not furnished with a plug, read the following instructions; as the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: – the wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black; – the wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. – terminal of a three-pin plug.

Check the data label inside the appliance; if the symbol (☑) is NOT printed, read the following: ATTENTION: This appliance must be earthed. When making the electrical connections, check that the current socket has a ground connection.

The following warning is valid in the United Kingdom only: in case your cable is not furnished with a plug, read the following instructions; as the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: – the wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol [1±] , or coloured green or green and yellow; – the wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black; – the wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.

When making the electrical connections, check that the voltage values correspond to those indicated on the data plate inside the appliance itself. In case your appliance is not furnished with a non separating flexible cable and has no plug, or has not got any other device ensuring omnipolar disconnection from the electricity main, with a contact opening distance of at least 3mm , such separating device ensuring disconnection from the main must be included in the fixed installation. If your unit features a power lead and plug, position this so the plug is accessible.

Always switch off the electricity supply before carrying out any cleaning or servicing operations on the appliance.

ATTENTION: This appliance must be grounded.

USE

Avoid using materials which could cause spurts of flame (flambées) near the appliance.

When frying, take particular care to prevent oil and grease from catching fire. Already used oil is especially dangerous in this respect. Do not use uncovered electric grates.

To avoid possible risks of fire always comply with the indicated instructions when cleaning anti-grease filters and when removing grease deposits from the appliance.

MAINTENANCE

Thorough servicing guarantees correct and long-lasting operation.

Any fat deposits should be removed from the appliance periodically depending on amount of use (at least every 2 months). Avoid using abrasive or corrosive products. To clean painted appliances on the outside, use a cloth dipped in lukewarm water and neutral detergent. To clean steel, copper or brass appliances on the outside, it is always best to use specific products, following the instructions on the products themselves. To clean the inside of the appliance, use a cloth (or brush) dipped in denatured ethyl alcohol.

DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

The description and characteristics shown in this document are for information only and not obligatory. Indeed, we reserve the right to carry out any modification or improvement of the quality of certain of our products without prior notice.

As with all hoods, these apparatuses can be installed in either filtering version or suction version.

In the Filtering version (Fig. 1), the air and vapours conveyed by the appliance are depurated by charcoal filter and recirculated around the room. ATTENTION: Using the hood as a filtering one it is necessary to use the charcoal filter that purifies the air sent back into the room.

In the Ducting version (Fig. 2), cooking vapours and odours are conveyed straight outside by a disposal duct which passes through the wall/ceiling. Use of charcoal filter is therefore unnecessary.

Decide at the beginning which type of installation to adopt.

Your apparatus is supplied in the filtering version so that if you want to install the apparatus in the suction version you must remove the charcoal filter.

This apparatus conforms to the 16.08.89 regulation relating to the limitation of radio-electric disturbances (EC Directive n./ 6.889 modified by the EC Directive 8/.308.).

INSTALLATION

It is advisable to entrust the installation operations to specialised personnel.

Read carefully the indications in the paragraph "IMPORTANT" at page 10 of the instruction booklet.

1. Before proceeding with the installation operations, remove the grease filters to make it easier to handle the hood: grip the knob and push it towards the opposite side of the filter and turn the filter outwards (Fig. 3).
2. Arrange the electrical power supply within the decorative flue dimensions.
3. Should you install the ducting version, prepare the air vent hole and duct.

For optimal conditions in the ducting versions, use an air exhaust pipe with

the minimum indispensable length, the least possible number of elbows (maximum elbow angle: 90^ ), certified materials (according to the country), and an as smooth as possible inside. It is also recommended to avoid drastic changes in the pipe cross-section (diameter: 150~mm ). Consider that the air vent of the hood is not on the longitudinal axis but is offset by 35~mm to the right - see dimensions in Fig. 17.

1. Fixing to the wall: Draw a line on the wall along the vertical axis of the hob. Mark the first 2 holes to be drilled on the wall, respecting the measurements indicated in Fig. 4; drill the 2 holes and insert the screw anchors (provided). Bear in mind that the distance between the lower edge of the hood (the part where the lamps are positioned) and the hob must be at least 650 mm. Fix the metal bracket (A) to the wall using the 2 holes just drilled - Fig. 5 - (the bracket retaining screws are not provided).

Use the 2 triangles cut into the bracket to position it exactly along the vertical axis of the hood.

Fig. 4

Then hook the hood onto the bracket (Fig. 6). Adjust the horizontal position by moving the hood to the right or left according to the wall unit alignment. If the hood needs to be adjusted in height, operate on the adjusting screws (B) (provided). Once adjusted, without removing the hood, mark the other 4 holes to be drilled on the wall (C); unhook the hood and drill the holes marked (8 mm diameter); then use the 4 screw anchors and 4 screws provided for final fixing.

1. Fit the electrical system plate, securing it with 2 screws (V) and 2 washers (Fig. 7).
