Frequently Asked Questions - PSK970MAT Pelgrim

How to install the Pelgrim PSK970MAT range hood?

Installation must be carried out by a professional. Fix the wall bracket to the wall, hang the hood, then connect the exhaust duct. Respect the minimum distance of 65 cm between the hood and the hob.

How to clean the grease filters?

The metal grease filters can be washed in the dishwasher or by hand with warm soapy water. Let them dry completely before putting them back.

When to replace the charcoal filter?

The charcoal filter must be replaced every 3 to 6 months depending on use, or as soon as the hood's efficiency decreases in recirculation mode.

What to do if the hood is very noisy?

First check that the filters are clean and properly in place. Abnormal noise can also come from a blocked duct or a motor defect. Contact after-sales service.

How to activate the intensive mode?

Press the 'Intensive' button or hold down the maximum speed key for 3 seconds. The hood runs at full power for 10 minutes then automatically returns to the previous speed.

Can I use the hood without an exhaust duct?

Yes, in recirculation mode. You must install a charcoal filter (not supplied) to filter the air before returning it to the kitchen.

How to change the LED bulb?

The LED bulbs are integrated and must be replaced by a professional. Contact Pelgrim technical service to obtain a suitable bulb.

Is the remote control supplied?

Depending on the model, the hood may be supplied with an infrared remote control. Check the contents of the packaging. Otherwise, you can order one as an option.

What to do if the hood does not turn on?

First check the power supply (fuse or circuit breaker). Make sure the plug is properly connected. If the problem persists, inspect the control panel or contact a repairer.

Where to find spare parts for the PSK970MAT?

Spare parts are available from authorized Pelgrim dealers or on the official website. You can also order filters and bulbs online.

1.2 Introduction

When you have read these instructions for use, you will quickly be aware of all the facilities the appliance can offer you. You can read about safety and how you should look after the appliance.

Keep the instructions for use and the installation instructions. Any later user of this appliance could benefit from them.

2 Safety

2.1 What you need to take into account

Attention! Make sure the appliance is installed by an authorised installer (see "Installation" chapter). Do not connect the appliance to the flow network before completing the installation.

Connect the appliance in accordance with the applicable regulations in your area.

We advise you to wear protective work gloves during the installation of the cooker • hood due to possible sharp edges.

- The appliance has been manufactured in accordance with the latest safety standards.

However we do advise that mentally handicapped, disabled or retarded individuals do not use this appliance without the proper supervision of a competent person. The same applies to children.

Never use the cooker hood when the grease filter has not been properly installed! Do not lean against the cooker hood.

Make sure there is sufficient circulation when you use the cooker hood on a gas cooker.

The exhaust exit must never be connected to a smoke duct which is also used for other heating appliances.

- Never flambé under the cooker hood and always clean the filters on time. Frying needs to be done under constant supervision to prevent the heated fat from catching fire.

The cooker hood needs to be cleaned regularly (at least once a month) on the inside as well as on the outside. When the fi Iters are insufficiently cleaned or replaced, this will result in a fire hazard.

If the connection cable becomes damaged, it should be replaced by the

manufacturer's service department or by a person with equivalent qualifications, in order to prevent dangerous situations from arising.

- First disconnect the appliance from the socket when you replace the lights! Only use identical lamps with the wattage indicated. Only use the cooker hood with lamps installed to reduce the risk of electrical shock.

- The grease filters become hot during operation. Wait a minimum of 30 minutes after cooking before cleaning it.

2 Safety

The main current must be switched off during reparation or cleaning. Remove the plug from the mains current or turn the switch in the meter cupboard to zero.

Grease and oil are fl ammable when they are overheated. Stay in the vicinity of the cooker when preparing food

2.2 Extraction systems

Depending on the type, the cooker hoods can be connected in one of two ways:

1. To a duct. To a duct, the cooking vapours extracted by suction are carried outside, once the grease particles have been filtered. This is the best method.

2. Recirculation hood. As a recirculation hood, the grease particles and the smell in the extracted vapours are fi Itered. The air that has been sucked in is not carried outside but recirculates in the kitchen. In this case you must have a carbon fi Iter fi tted.

Attention! The carbon filter needs to be ordered separately.

4.2 Replacing the carbon fi Iter

The carbon filter must always be used if the cooker hood is not ducted.

Note:

Saturation of the activated charcoal will eventually occur after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and how frequently the grease filter is cleaned.

In all cases it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months.

DO NOT wash or reuse the carbon fi Iter. Saturated carbon is not environmentally friendly, change the fi Iter regularly.

Remove the grease filters.

Fit the carbon filter in the appropriate slot underneath the motor and tighten it using the bayonet screws.

Replace the filter grids in the extractor hood.

4.3 Changing the light bulbs

Remove the lamp cover.

Replace the halogen light bulb with a replacement bulb with a maximum output power of 20 Watts.

Re-close the lamp cover.

4 Maintenance

4.4 Cleaning

Cooker hood

Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then wipe with clean water to rinse. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as soda. The cooker hood paintwork will stay looking nice if you wax it occasionally.

Stainless steel canopy hoods

Do not use any sort of scourer. Treat with a stainless steel care product and polish with the structure of the stainless steel.

Metal grease fi Iters

The grease fi lters can be placed in the dishwasher for cleaning. The openings must be placed downwards to let the water run out of the fi lters. The cleaning agents will make the aluminium fi lter turn dull, this is normal.

Glass panels

Do not clean the glass panels in a dishwasher in connection with the risk of discolouration. Glass panels can best be cleaned by hand with soapsuds.

5 Installation

5.1 General

This appliance should be connected to the power supply by a recognized fitter who is familiar with, and works according to the correct safety regulations. This appliance meets the European requirements.

Important that you know:

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the gashob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65 cm. For use with an electric, ceramic or induction hob, this distance must be at least 55 cm.

If the cooker hood is to be fitted to an existing duct no other appliances, such as a • geyser or heater, may be connected to that same duct.

Consider local regulations with respect to the ventilation of gas appliances.

The shorter the duct, and the fewer the bends in it, the better the cooker hood will work.

Before you start drilling check that there are no installation cables present.

The connecting pipe for the cooker hood has a diameter of 120, 125 or 150 mm. It is best also to use a flue pipe of the same diameter.

- The installation material supplied with this range hood is designed for fixing to reinforced concrete or masonry walls. For some types of walls you may need special plugs and screws.

5 Installation

5.2 Electric connection

The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary.

Make sure the supply voltage ratings correspond with those stated on the appliance data plate. The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

BROWN = phase L •

BLUE = phase N •

Green/yellow = earth •

This canopy hood has been provided with a power plug. When installing the hood, make sure that this plug remains accessible. We recommend installing the wall socket out of view, behind the chimney cover.

Attention:

If you want to make a fixed connection, ensure that a multi-pole switch with a distance between contacts of 3 mm is installed in the supply cable.

5 Installation

5.3 Mounting the canopy hood
