Frequently Asked Questions - HBP6123 N HOOVER

What is the minimum distance between the hood and the cooktop?

For electric cooktops, the minimum distance is 60 cm. For gas or mixed cooktops, it is 70 cm. If the cooking device instructions specify a greater distance, it must be taken into account.

How to install the hood in extracting mode?

In extracting mode, vapors are expelled outside through a duct connected to the collar located above the hood. The duct diameter must match the collar. It is important to use the strictly necessary length of pipe with a minimum of bends (max angle 90°).

How to install the hood in filtering mode?

In filtering mode, the drawn air is degreased and deodorized before being recirculated into the room. To do this, you must install an additional filtering system based on activated carbon.

How often should the hood be cleaned?

The hood must be regularly cleaned inside and outside at least once a month. Use only a damp cloth with mild liquid detergent. Never use alcohol, abrasives, or cleaning tools.

When should the anti-grease filter be changed?

The paper anti-grease filter must be changed once a month or as soon as discoloration becomes visible on the upper part through the grid.

When should the activated carbon filter be changed?

The activated carbon filter (only in recirculation mode) must be changed every 4 months at most. It cannot be cleaned or regenerated.

How to replace the hood lamps?

Disconnect the hood and ensure the lamps are cold. Replace the defective bulb with one of the same type: 28 W, socket E14, 230 V (ILCOSD reference: HSGSB/C/UB-28-230-E14-67). Put the grid back in place.

What to do if the lighting does not work after replacement?

Before contacting after-sales service, check that the lamps are correctly inserted into their housing.

What types of cooking are not recommended under the hood?

It is forbidden to flambé food under the hood. Avoid using an open flame as it may damage the filters and cause a fire. Frying must be done with caution to prevent overheated oil from catching fire.

How to reduce environmental impact during use?

Turn on the hood at the minimum speed during cooking and let it run for a few minutes after. Increase speed only when there is a lot of smoke or steam. Replace carbon filters and clean grease filters according to recommendations.

Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Extraction version

In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.

CAUTION!

The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.

Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.

CAUTION!

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 air outlet (connection flange).

Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.

Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

! Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90^ ).
! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.

Filtration 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.

Installation

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 60cm from electric cookers and 70cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

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.

Warning! If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.

Mounting

Before beginning installation:

• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.
• Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want to use the hood in the filtering version.
• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (^) , guarantees (^) , etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

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.

Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Description of the hood

1. Vapour collector
2. Suction grill
3. Controls
4. Light point

Operation

Use the keys or buttons envisaged for the control of the lights and the power of the available suction.

Only in some models: switching on and off the fan that adjusts the suction power and, in some cases, switching the lights on and off, is controlled by opening and closing the steam collector.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Clean using ONLY the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

Grease filter - Fig. 2-18

Traps cooking grease particles.

Paper filter must be replaced once a month or if colouring appears on upper side, in such cases the colouring is evident through the grill openings.

Charcoal filter (filter version only) - Fig. 17

It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking.

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.

In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months.

The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.

Replacing lamps

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity.

Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

Replace the old light bulb with the one of the same type as specified in the feature label or near the light lamp on the hood.

Remove the grill.

Remove the damaged light and replace it with a new one (see the table below):

Lamp	Power (W)		Socket
	28		E14
Voltage (V)		Dimension (mm)
230		67 (Light Center Length)
ILCOS D Code (according IEC 61231)
HSGSB/C/UB-28-230-E14-67

Put the grill back.

If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for technical assistance.
