BEFORE INSTALLATION Before proceeding with the installation of your appliance, check that it is not damaged. Otherwise, do not proceed with the installation and contact your dealer. You should also make sure that the dimensions of the appliance and its conduit are compatible with your kitchen and ceiling height.

INSTALLATION This appliance has to be installed by 2 people. Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. WARNING! Failure to follow the instructions in this manual may result in electrical hazards. In case of doubt, consult an authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified person.

Detailed installation procedure

1. Take the dimensions of your cooker in order to have the range hood centred above it. Stick the

installation and drilling pattern on the wall above your cooker, taking care to comply with the required minimum distance. Note: The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

2. On the wall, mark the position of the 4 holes shown on the pattern and drill the holes by using drill bit

with an 8mm diameter. Attention: the pattern is designed for 2 different range hood dimensions, therefore you must make sure to conform to the dimensions of your appliance.

3. In the holes that you just drilled, insert the 4 wall plugs (8mm diameter, 40mm depth) and the 4 screws

(5mm diameter, 45mm depth), all supplied.

4. Mark the position of 2 other holes at the top centre of the wall for installation of the discharge conduit.

Screw the bracket in place.

5. Depending on the type of discharge in your home, mount the chimney.

¾ To use the appliance in filter version, fit the discharge conduit to the bracket at the top of the wall with the supplied 2 screws (2.9mm diameter, 6.5mm depth). Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be7

6. Position the range hood on the 2 upper screws. Open the grease filter door to access the 2 screws inside

the box, on each side. Remove the grease filters and position the 2 internal screws with the supplied washers.

7. Make sure the appliance is level by using a spirit level, and tighten the screws.

8. Take off the power unit on the front of the hood and raise it up and then fasten it with the 2 screws

already positioned on the top of the hood. Tighten the screws. Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be8

9. Install an exhaust pipe (not supplied) with correct dimension.

10. Stretch out the pipe and fit it to the filter conduit, or connect it to the external discharge point. In case

of discharging air to the outside, you can add the non‐return valve before putting the pipe in place: this will help avoid backflow of air.

11. If you wish to install charcoal filters (not supplied), to use the appliance in filter mode, follow the

instructions below. After installing the charcoal filters, ensure to put the grease filters back in place. Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be9

Assembly Hook the charcoal filter at the back on the metal tongue of the hood first, then on the front with the two knobs. Disassembly Remove the charcoal filter by turning the knobs fixing it to the hood by 90°.

Electrical connection For your safety, ask a qualified technician to perform the electrical installation of the hood. The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over‐current category III, in accordance with installation instructions. Warning! Before re‐connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE

Ducting version In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe connected with the flange located on top of the hood. Beware! The exhaust pipe and ring are not supplied and must be purchased apart. Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the flange. Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be10 In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10°) and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside. Beware! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be removed. Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the exhaust pipe (flange and ring). Using tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will affect the suction performance and drastically increase the noise.

• Use a duct of the minimum necessary length.

• Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).

• Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross‐section.

• Use a duct as smooth as possible inside.

• The duct must be made of certified material. Filter version The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being fed back into the room. In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal (for more information, please refer to Installation section of this manual).

Operation The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights. Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours. a. ON/OFF light switch b. Speed 1/OFF switch c. 2‐speed selection d. 3‐speed selection Note: the switch b. is for 1‐speed selection but it also acts as an on‐ off switch. As a result, it must be pressed if you want to select speed 2 or 3.

Tips on saving energy Here are some suggestions to help you reduce the environmental impact of your appliance: Switch on the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and keep it running for a few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of a large amount of smoke and vapour and use higher speed only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filters when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filters when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Beware! Before performing any cleaning or maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse. Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket. The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally (about once a month). Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and

replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Cleaning the external surface

• To protect the external surface of the hood from corrosion over a long period of time, it should be cleaned with hot water plus non corrosive detergent every two months.

• Keep the motor and other parts free from water, as this will cause damage to the appliance.

• The charcoal filters shall not be exposed to heat.

Cleaning the grease filter The grease filters trap cooking grease particles. It must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle. Cleaning the charcoal filters (filter version only) The charcoal filters absorb unpleasant odours caused by cooking. There are 2 types of activated charcoal filters: washable and non‐washable activated charcoal filters. Washable activated charcoal filter The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function and leave dishes out). Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then remove the mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is damaged. NON-washable activated charcoal filter The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and how often you clean the grease filters. In any case, it is necessary to replace the filter at least every four months. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated. Replacing lamps Disconnect the appliance from the mains. Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs, ensure they are cooled down. Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be12 Replace the old light bulb with the one of the same type: use Ø35mm E14 28W halogen candle lamps only. If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for technical assistance.
