Frequently Asked Questions - FMA907BKXS FRANKE

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

The minimum safety distance is 650 mm for electric hobs. For gas hobs, follow the manufacturer's instructions which may specify a greater distance.

How to clean the grease filters?

The metallic grease filters can be washed in the dishwasher or by hand with a neutral detergent. They should be cleaned every 2 months or more often with heavy use.

When should the activated charcoal filter be replaced?

The activated charcoal filter cannot be washed and should be replaced every 4 months approximately, or more often if the hood is heavily used.

How to activate the intensive speed?

How to use the delayed shut-off?

Press the T3 button for 2 seconds to activate the delayed shut-off of 30 minutes (motor + lighting).

Can I use the hood with a gas appliance?

Yes, but you must ensure sufficient ventilation of the room to prevent backflow of combustion gases. The negative pressure must not exceed 0.04 mbar.

What to do if the power cord is damaged?

Do not use the hood. Have the cord replaced by the manufacturer or an authorized after-sales service to avoid any risk.

How to open the hood panel?

Simply pull the panel towards you. It locks automatically in the desired position.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

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 only screws and small parts in support of the hood.

Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

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

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 flambé under the range hood; risk of fire.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of

experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

- “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).
• The Grease filters must be cleaned every 2 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage, and can be washed in a dishwasher.
• The Activated charcoal filter is not washable and cannot be regenerated, and must be replaced approximately every 4 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage.
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.

Wall drilling and bracket fixing

As a first step, proceed with the following drawings:

• a vertical line up to the ceiling or up to the upper limit, at the centre of the area in which the hood is to be fitted;
• a horizontal line at a minimum 788 mm above the cooker top.
• Mark a point (1) on the horizontal line, 164 mm to the right of the vertical reference line.
• Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are levelled.
• Mark a reference point (2) as indicated at 140 mm from the vertical reference line and 540 mm above the cooker top.
• Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are levelled.
• Drill at the marked points (1), using a 12 mm diameter drill bit.
• Drill at the marked points (2) using an 8 mm diameter drill bit.
• Insert the bracket plugs 11a into the holes (1) and tighten the screws.
• Insert plug 11 into holes (2).

To install a decorative chimney (optional)

• Place bracket 7.2.1 on the wall, about 1-2 mm from the ceiling or from the upper limit, aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical reference line. Mark the wall at the centres of the bracket holes.
• Place the bracket 7.2.1 on the wall at X mm below the first bracket (X = height of the upper chimney section), aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical line. Mark the wall at the centres of the bracket holes.
• Drill 8 mm diameter holes at all the marked centre points.
• Insert the wall plugs 11 in the holes.
• Fix the brackets using the 12a screws (4.2 x 44.4) supplied with the hood.
