USER MANUAL HDMC9800LB HOOVER

GENERAL 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) or with external motor (Fig.1C). SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultane-

ously 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 environ- ment 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.

In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard. A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is operating. B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after prolonged use of the lighting installation. C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood. D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard. E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the over- heated oil may become a fire hazard. F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance. G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.

I) There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when

the rangehood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels. L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Assemblyandelectricalconnectionsmustbecarriedout by specialised personnel.

• Wearprotectiveglovesbeforeproceedingwiththeinstal- lation.

• ElectricConnection: Note! Verify the data label placed inside the appliance: - If the symbol appears on the plate, it means that no earth connection must be made on the appliance, therefore follow the instructions concerning insulation class II. - If the symbol DOES NOT appear on the plate, follow the instructions concerning insulation class I. Insulation class II - The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary. The plug must be easily acces- sible after the installation of the appliance. If the appliance is equipped with power cord without plug, a suitably di- mensioned omnipolar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between contacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity supply in compliance with the load and current regulations. - The connection to the mains is carried out as follows: BROWN = L line BLUE = N neutral. Insulation class I This is a class I, appliance and must therefore be connected to an effiecient earthing system. - The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply as follows: BROWN = L line BLUE = N neutral YELLOW/GREEN = earth. The neutral wire must be connected to the terminal with the N symbol while the YELLOW/GREEN, wire must be connected to the terminal by the earth symbol . When connecting the appliance to the electricity supply, make sure that the mains socket has an earth connection. After fitting the ducted cooker hood, make sure that the electrical plug is in a position where it can be accessed easily. If the appliance is connected directly to the electricity supply, an omnipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of 3 mm must be placed in between the two; its size must be suitable for the load required and it must comply with current legislation.

• If the hob is electric, gas, or induction, the minimum distance between the same and the lower part of the hood must be at least 45 cm. 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- 24 - appliances generated by other than an electrical source. - 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. Attention!

• Before proceeding with the installation, to be able to move the hood more easily, complete the following operations:

1. Remove the anti-grease lterl by pulling the handle, as

shown in gure 2 - phase 1.

2. If the product is equipped with activated charcoal lters(B-

If the screws and screw anchors are supplied with the appli- ance, make sure that they are suited to the type of wall to which the hood must be xed. - Filtering version - Unhook the small cupola M and remove the grille E (Fig. 5). - Pass the power supply cable through the slots of the small cupola M as shown in Fig. 6. - Take the fairlead H and position it between the power sup- ply cable and the slot. - Fasten the small cupola M and the grille E making sure that is it perfectly hooked on to the fastening pins G. (Fig. 6). The filters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.10B).

• Optionalaccessories This model may have decorative ducts as optional accessories - ask your retailer for information. Before installing decorative ues it is necessary to remove the small cupola and loosen the 4 screws B that lock the fastening pins G as shown in Fig.7.

• Installationofmodelswithdecorativeducts-extrac- tor hood Make sure the electrical power supply is within the measure- ments of the decorative connector. Connect ange F to the air exhaust hole using exible hose L (Fig.7). Adjust the width of the support bracket of the top connector (Fig. 8). Then x it to the ceiling so that it is on the same axis as the hood using screws A and observing the distance from the ceiling shown in (Fig. 8). Slide the top connector inside the lower duct and place this on the body (Fig. 9). - Secure the lower decorative chimney to the hood using the supplied screws H (Fig.9B). Pull out the top duct as far as the bracket and secure it using screws B (Fig. 8). To transform the hood from a ducting version into a ltering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal lters and follow the installation instructions.

• Filterhood: Please note: - In order to transform the hood from EXTRACTOR HOOD into FILTER HOOD the active carbon filters must be ordered at your distributor as accessory. We have 3 different types of Kit, one with non-regenerable active carbon filters (Fig.10B) and the other one with regen- erable active charcoal filters (washable) (Fig.10C - Fig.10D). - Depending on the model one owns, the CIRCULAR active carbon filters must be applied to the suction unit located inside the hood, centring them and rotating them by 90 degrees until they snap into place (Fig.10B), to replace them perform the operation in reverse order. - For WASHABLE regenerable activated carbon filters (Fig.10C), follow the assembly instructions contained in the KIT. - For the WASHABLE CIRCULAR regenerable active carbon filters (Fig.10D), remove the pad and follow the instructions in the USE AND MAINTENANCE paragraph, "regenerable active carbon filters".

• 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 main- tenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special attention.

• Theanti-greasefilter is responsible retaining the grease- 25 - particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance. - To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2 months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher at low temperatures and on short cycles. - After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does not give the right to claim their replacement.

• Theactivecarbonfilters are used to purify the air that is sent back into the room and its function is to mitigate the unpleasant odours produced by cooking. - The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance, on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti- grease filter is cleaned. - Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand, with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be complete without dishware). Remove excess water without damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.

• Beforeremountingtheanti-greasefiltersandtheregen- erable active charcoal filters it is important that they are completely dry.

• Cleanthehoodfrequently,bothinternallyandexternally, using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral liquid detergents that are non abrasive.

• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases the average duration of the bulbs.

• If the appliance is equipped with courtesy lights it is possible to use them for general room lighting for a prolonged amount of time.

• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the suggested instructions.

• Replacinghalogenlightbulbs(Fig.11A): 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.

• ReplacingLEDlamps(Fig.11B): If the appliance version is with LED lamps, the intervention of a specialised technician is necessary to replace them.

• Commands(Fig.12): NOTE: with this command it is also possible to control the ap- pliance using a remote control, to be requested as an accessory. A Button = Switches the hood on/off. The equipment switches on at the 1st speed. B Button = Decreases motor speed. C Display = Shows the selected motor speed and timer acti- vation/intense speed/filter warning. D Button = Increases motor speed. Pressing the 4th speed button engages the intense function for 6 minutes, then the equipment goes back to working at the speed at which it was activated. During this function, the number 4 flashes on the display. - If you wish to deactivate the function before the 6 minutes, press the B button. Attention! Some models only work up to the 3rd speed and, therefore, do not have the intense function. E Button = Pressing this button activates the Timer function even with any of the 1-2-3 speeds engaged (except the Intense function speed). When the Timer function is active, the set speed must flash on the display when the timer is activated. After 15 minutes, at the end of the countdown, the hood switches off (motor and any lights remain on). If the intense speed is engaged, the Timer cannot be activated. - If you wish to deactivate the function before the 15 minutes, press the E button. F Button = Switches the lights on/off.

• Anti-grease/activecharcoalfilterssaturation: - After 30 h of operation, when the C display flashes, alternating the working speed with the letter F (i.e. 2 and F), this means that you need to wash the anti grease filters. - After 120 h of operation, when the C display flashes, alterna- ting the working speed with the letters C/F (i.e. 2 and C/F), this means that you need to wash or replace the charcoal filters. - Once you have repositioned the clean filter, you need to reset the electronic memory with the hood on, pressing the B button for about 3 seconds. After that time, the letter E appears on the display (reset confirmed) and the hood switches off.

• Mechanicalcontrols(Fig.13):the symbols are as follows: A= LIGHT / ON-OFF key B= OFF /FIRST SPEED key C= SECOND SPEED key D = THIRD SPEED key If the hood is shut o at rst, second or third speed, when it is turned back on, it will start at the same speed it was in when switched o.
