INSTALLATION (VENT OUTSIDE)

If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be connected as below picture by means of an extraction duct (enamel, aluminum, flexible pipe or inflammable material with an interior diameter of 150/120mm)

1. Before installation, turn the unit off and unplug it from the outlet.

1. The cooker hood should be placed at a distance of 65~75cm above the cooking plane for best effect.

Pic1

1. Install the hook on a suitable place once the installation height is fixed, and keep it in line. The fixed position of the inside chimney bracket is the place of chimney. See pic 2.

Pic 2

1. Fix the expansion pipe according to the lead direction and way, and then put the cooker hood on the hook. Lay the expansion pipe to the wall outlet. Fix the expansion pipe with the cable tie on the wall-outlet if it is aluminium foil pipe. See pic 3.

1. Put the glass according to the lead direction and way on the cooker hood, and then use the screws to fix the glass. Also lead the expansion pipe outside of the room. Meanwhile, adjust the height of the inside chimney to the position of the inside chimney bracket and fix it on by screw. Here, be sure the inside chimney can be flexed freely. See Pic 4.
2. Put the two chimneys together onto the cooker hood body. Meanwhile, adjust the height of the inside chimney to the suitable height, and fix the inside chimney to the inside chimney bracket by screw. Finally, fix the body with safety screw. See Pic 5.

Note: The two safety vents are positioned on the back housing, with diameter of 6mm.

MOUNTING OF THE V-FLAP (Optional)

If the cooker hood does not have an assembled V-flap 1, you should mount the half-parts to its body.

To mount the V-flap 1 you should:

• Mount two half-parts 2 into the body 6.
• A pin 3 should be top oriented.
• The axis 4 should be inserted in the holes 5 on body.

Repeat all the operations for the 2nd

half-part.

HINTS FOR EXHAUST DUCT INSTALLATION

The following rules must be strictly followed to obtain optimal air extraction:

• Keep expansion pipe short and straight.
• Do not reduce the size or restrict expansion pipe.
• When using expansion pipe always install the pipe pulled taut to minimize pressure loss.

- Failure to observe these basic instructions will reduce the performance and increase noise levels of the cooker hood.

- Any installation work must be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

- Do not connect the ducting system of the hood to any existing ventilation system which is being used for any other appliance, such as warmer tube, gas tube, hot wind tube.

• The angle of the bend of the expansion pipe should not be less than 120 degrees; you must direct the pipe horizontally, or, alternatively, the pipe should go up from the initial point and should be led to an outer wall.

• After the installation, make sure that the cooker hood is level to avoid grease collection at one end. - Ensure the expansion pipe selected for installation complies with relevant standards and is fire retardant.

WARNING:

For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw which are recommended in this instruction manual. Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Caution:

- Before maintenance or cleaning is carried out, the cooker hood should be disconnected from the main power supply. Ensure that the cooker hood is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed.

- External surfaces are susceptible to scratches and abrasions, so please follow the cleaning instructions to ensure the best possible result is achieved without damage.

GENERAL

Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with the appliance cold especially when cleaning. Avoid leaving alkaline or acid substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces.

STAINLESS STEEL

The stainless steel must be cleaned regularly (e.g. weekly) to ensure long life expectancy. Dry with a clean soft cloth. A specialized stainless steel cleaning fluid may be used.

NOTE:

Ensure that wiping is done along with the grain of the stainless steel to prevent any unsightly crisscross scratching patterns from appearing.

CONTROL PANEL SURFACE

The inlay control panel can be cleaned using warm soapy water. Ensure the cloth is clean and well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry soft cloth to remove any excess moisture left after cleaning.

Important

Use neutral detergents and avoid harsh cleaning chemicals, strong household detergents, or products containing abrasives, as these can affect the appliance's appearance, potentially remove any printed artwork on the control panel, and void the manufacturer's warranty.

GREASE MESH FILTERS

The mesh filters can be cleaned either by hand or in the dishwasher. After cleaning, ensure that the filters are completely dry before refitting.

- By hand: Soak them for about 3 minutes in water with a grease-loosening detergent, then brush gently with a soft brush. Do not apply too much pressure to avoid damage. (Leave to dry naturally out of direct sunlight.)

- In a dishwasher: Ensure that the filters are placed so as not to

impede the function of the spray arm. Washing the filters in a dishwasher may cause discoloration of the aluminum inner mesh over time, although it will not affect their performance.

Filters should be washed separately from crockery and kitchen utensils. It is advisable not to use rinse aid.

INSTALLING GREASE MESH FILTERS

• To install filters, follow these four steps: - Angle the filter into the slots at the back of the hood. - Push the button on the handle of the filter. - Release the handle once the filter fits into a resting position. - Repeat to install all filters.

CARBON FILTER - buy separately

Activated carbon filters can be used to trap odors. Normally, the activated carbon filter should be changed every three or six months, depending on your cooking habits. The installation procedure for the activated carbon filter is as below.

1. Remove the grease filter(s).

1. Hook the carbon filter over the pins located at the end of the motor.

1. Turn the carbon filter anticlockwise until you feel it click into place.

Repeat this process for the second carbon filter. You need to place a carbon filter at either end of the motor.

Refit the motor access panel and fully tighten the screws that you removed previously.

Refit the lower and upper chimney sections to the main body of the hood.

NOTE:

Make sure the filter is securely locked. Otherwise, it could loosen and cause danger.

When the activated carbon filter is attached, the suction power will be lowered.
