USER MANUAL RHVI912IN ROSIERES

Carefully read the following important information regarding installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information booklet accessible for further consultations. The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting version (air exhaust to the outside - Fig.1B), filtering version (air circulation on the inside - Fig.1A).

SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on the air in the environment and are supplied by other than electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes the air from the environment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacuation.

Before connecting the model to the electricity network:

• Control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance) to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to the network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
• If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with another cable or a special assembly, which may be obtained direct from the manufacturer or from the Technical Assistance Centre.
• This device must be connected to the supply network through either a plug fused 3A or hardwired to a 2 fase spur protected by 3A fuse.

2. Warning!

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialised personnel.
- Wear protective gloves before proceeding with the installation.

Electric Connection:

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

The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

BROWN = L line

BLUE = N neutral.

If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load indicated on the description label. Where a plug is provided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that the plug is easily accessible. An omnipolar switch with a minimum opening of 3mm between contacts, in line with the electrical load and local standards, must be placed between the appliance and the network in the case of direct connection to the electrical network.

• The minimum distance between the support surfaces of the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of the cooker hood must be at least 65~cm (Fig.14). If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other than an electrical source. Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.15) so that the unit is easier to handle.

-In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.

• We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be reduced and its operation may become noisier.

Hood assembly:

• Remove the structure from the packaging and remove the 2 screws A to separate the upper part from the lower part (Fig.2).
• Position hole template on the ceiling paying attention that the arrow is positioned on the same side as the appliance controls (Fig.3). Make 4, 08 holes in the ceiling and drive in 3 screws without completely tightening them. Pay attention not to insert the screw into the hole marked with an X on the hole template (the screws and expansion plugs must be suitable for the type of wall).
• Take the upper part of the structure B (Fig.4) and insert the 3 slots onto the 3 screws that are not completely tightened.

Rotate slightly to fit (Fig.4). Drive in the fourth screw X and tighten the remaining 3 to allow definitive blocking of the upper part of structure B.
- Take the lower part of the telescopic structure C and insert it into the upper structure B (Fig.5). Adjust the height by referring to the amounts indicated in (Fig.14a) and block it using the 8 screws G that are supplied (Fig.6).
-Suction version: Fix the flexible pipe to the prepared air evacuation hole (Fig.7).
- Filtering version: Fix the flexible pipe to the deflector M and fix screw I as indicated in (Fig.8).
- The charcoal filters are already fitted to the appliance (Fig.16).
- Take the upper chimney piece and fix it to the structure using the 2 screws A (Fig.9). Join the lower chimney piece with the upper one and fix it carefully using adhesive tape L (Fig.10a).
-Unscrew the 2 screws O, max 3mm (Fig.10a).
Insert the suction unit inside the structure paying attention that the previously unscrewed screws O, hook into the slots in the lower part as indicated in (Fig.10b).
Drive in the 3 screws N (supplied) and tighten the 2 screws O (Fig.10b).
-Fix the air evacuation pipe H (not supplied) onto the connection flange F (Fig.11).
- Remove adhesive tape L and rest the lower chimney piece above the cooker hood (Fig.12).
- If the cooker hood is supplied with a lower chimney piece that must be fixed to the hood body with screws, remove the anti-grease filters from the hood by acting on the relevant handles (Fig.15). Then screw the lower chimney piece pipe to the inside of the hood, using screws P (Fig.13). Re-locate the filters in their seat.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease particles suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation (the time it takes for the filter to become saturated depends on the way in which the appliance is used).
• To prevent possible fires, clean the anti-grease filters by hand at least once every two months with non-abrasive neutral detergents or in the dishwasher at a low temperature using short cycles.
• After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change. This does not mean they have to be replaced.
  If the replacement and washing instructions are not followed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air which is released back into the room. The filters are not washable or re-usable and must be replaced at least once every four months. The active carbon filter saturation level depends on the frequency with which the appliance is used, the type of cooking performed and the regularity with which the anti-grease filters are cleaned.
• Clean the cooker hood frequently, both inside and outside, using a cloth which has been dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral, not-abrasive liquid detergents.
• The light on the cooker hood is designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended

use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb.

- Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.17):

To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.

Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.

Caution: Do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.

- Replacing LED lamps (Fig.18):

If the appliance version is with LED lamps, the intervention of a specialised technician is necessary to replace them.
