Frequently Asked Questions - CD686860 CONSTRUCTA

How to install the Constructa CD686860 extractor hood?

Installation must be carried out by a qualified professional. Use the supplied template to mark the fixing points. Respect the minimum safety distances: ≥450 mm for an electric hob and ≥600 mm for a gas hob. The appliance weighs up to 40 kg, assistance is required. In extraction mode, install the exhaust air duct (∅150 mm recommended) slightly sloping downwards.

What safety distances must be respected from the hob?

The minimum distance between the lower edge of the hood and the hob is 450 mm for an electric hob and 600 mm for a gas or mixed hob. These distances prevent heat accumulation and reduce fire risks.

How to clean the grease filters?

Remove the metal filters by opening the glass front. Clean them every 2 months by hand with hot water and dish soap, or in the dishwasher at maximum 50 °C. Avoid harsh detergents. Drain well before reinstalling. Never operate the hood without a filter.

How to use the intensive speed?

In case of strong odors or steam, touch the P symbol on the touch panel. The hood then runs at maximum speed for about 6 minutes, then automatically returns to speed 3. You can deactivate the intensive speed before the end by touching P again.

What to do if the appliance does not work?

First check that the plug is connected and the fuse has not blown. If other appliances work, the problem may be with the hood. Do not attempt to repair it yourself; contact Constructa after-sales service (FR: 01 40 10 12 00). Always unplug the appliance before any intervention.

How to replace the LED lighting?

The LED lamps are integrated and can only be replaced by the manufacturer, its after-sales service or a qualified electrician. In case of failure, call customer service. Do not look directly at the lit LEDs for more than 100 seconds (risk of eye injury).

What operating modes are available?

The hood can operate in extraction mode (air is expelled outside via a duct) or recirculation mode (air is filtered and returned to the kitchen). For recirculation, a specific kit with activated carbon filter is required (ref. CZ51AFU0X0, etc.).

How to maintain the stainless steel surfaces?

Clean stainless steel surfaces with a soft cloth soaked in hot water and dish soap, following the polishing direction. Dry with a soft cloth. For optimal maintenance, use a special stainless steel cleaner. Never use abrasive or chlorine-based cleaners.

Where to find the serial number for after-sales service?

The rating plate is located on the top of the appliance. It contains the product number (E-Nr.) and the manufacturing number (FD-Nr.). Note these numbers before any repair request. For France, call 01 40 10 12 00.

Can I use the hood without a grease filter?

No, it is dangerous. Grease deposits in the filter can ignite if not cleaned, and the absence of a filter increases fire risks. The hood must never operate without a grease filter. Clean it regularly every 2 months.

⚠️ Important safety information

Danger of suffocation!

Packaging material is dangerous to children. Never allow children to play with packaging material.

Danger of death!

Risk of poisoning from flue gases that are drawn back in.

Always ensure adequate fresh air in the room if the appliance is being operated in exhaust air mode at the same time as room air-dependent heat-producing appliance is being operated.

Safety warning symbol and diagram showing skull hazard, smoke, and fire system with arrows indicating airflow or safety.

Room air-dependent heat-producing appliances (e.g. gas, oil, wood or coal-operated heaters, continuous flow heaters or water heaters) obtain combustion air from the room in which they are installed and discharge the exhaust gases into the open air through an exhaust gas system (e.g. a chimney).

In combination with an activated vapour extractor hood, room air is extracted from the kitchen and neighbouring rooms - a partial vacuum is produced if not enough fresh air is supplied. Toxic gases from the chimney or the extraction shaft are sucked back into the living space.

■ Adequate incoming air must therefore always be ensured.
- An incoming/exhaust air wall box alone will not ensure compliance with the limit. Safe operation is possible only when the partial vacuum in the place where the heat-producing appliance is installed does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved when the air needed for combustion is able to enter through openings that cannot be sealed, for example in doors, windows, incoming/exhaust air wall boxes or by other technical means.

Simple line drawing of a house with a checkmark and fire symbol (no text or labels)

In any case, consult your responsible Master Chimney Sweep. He is able to assess the house's entire ventilation setup and will suggest the suitable ventilation measures to you.

Unrestricted operation is possible if the vapour extractor hood is operated exclusively in the circulating-air mode.

Risk of fire!

• Fatty deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Regularly clean the grease filter. Never operate the appliance without a grease filter.
• Grease deposits in the grease filter may catch fire. Never work with naked flames close to the appliance (e.g. flambéing). Do not install the appliance near a heat-producing appliance for solid fuel (e.g. wood or coal) unless a closed, non-removable cover is available. There must be no flying sparks.
• Hot oil and fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave hot fat or oil unattended. Never use water to put out burning oil or fat. Switch off the hotplate. Extinguish flames carefully using a lid, fire blanket or something similar.
• When gas burners are in operation without any cookware placed on them, they can build up a lot of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire. Only operate the gas burners with cookware on them.
• Operating several gas burners at the same time gives rise to a great deal of heat. A ventilation appliance installed above the cooker may become damaged or catch fire. Never operate two gas burners simultaneously on the highest flame for longer than 15 minutes. One large burner of more than 5 kW (wok) is equivalent to the power of two gas burners.

Risk of burns!

The accessible parts become very hot when in operation. Never touch hot parts. Keep children at a safe distance.

Risk of injury!

■ Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. Wear protective gloves.
- Items placed on the appliance may fall down. Do not place any objects on the appliance.
■ The light emitted by LED lights is very dazzling, and can damage the eyes (risk group 1). Do not look directly into the switched on LED lights for longer than 100 seconds.

Risk of injury!

Risk of trapping body parts when opening and closing the glass front. Do not reach into the area behind the glass panel, and keep your fingers away from the hinges.

Hazard due to magnetism!

Permanent magnets are inserted in the appliance front. They may affect electronic implants, e.g. heart pacemakers or insulin pumps. Wearers of electronic implants must stay at least 10 cm away from the appliance front.

Risk of electric shock!

• A defective appliance may cause electric shock. Never switch on a defective appliance. Unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
• Incorrect repairs are dangerous. Repairs may only be carried out and damaged power cables replaced by one of our trained after-sales technicians. If the appliance is defective, unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. Contact the after-sales service.
• Do not use any high-pressure cleaners or steam cleaners, which can result in an electric shock.

Risk of damage as a result of incorrect loading of design elements. Do not pull design elements. Do not place objects on the design elements or hang objects from them.

Environmental protection

Your new appliance is particularly energy-efficient. Here you can find tips on how to save even more energy when using the appliance, and how to dispose of your appliance properly.

Saving energy

■ During cooking, ensure that there is a sufficient supply of air so that the extractor hood can work efficiently and with a low level of operating noise.
- Adjust the fan speed to the intensity of the cooking fumes. Only use intensive mode where this is required. A lower fan speed means that less energy is consumed.
If there are intensive cooking fumes, select a higher fan speed in good time. If cooking fumes have already spread in the kitchen, the extractor hood must be operated for longer.
■ Switch off the extractor hood if you no longer require it.

■ Switch off the lighting if you no longer require it.
■ Clean and, if required, replace the filter at regular intervals in order to increase the effectiveness of the ventilation system and to prevent the risk of fire.

Environmentally-friendly disposal

Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly manner.

This appliance is labelled in accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EU concerning used electrical and electronic appliances (waste electrical and electronic equipment - WEEE). The guideline determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the EU.

Operating modes

Exhaust air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and conveyed to the exterior by a pipe system.

Note: The exhaust air must not be conveyed into a functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue or into a shaft which is used to ventilate installation rooms which contain heat-producing appliances.

■ Before conveying the exhaust air into a non-functioning smoke or exhaust gas flue, obtain the consent of the heating engineer responsible.
If the exhaust air is conveyed through the outer wall, a telescopic wall box should be used.

Circulating-air mode

The air which is drawn in is cleaned by the grease filters and an activated carbon filter and conveyed back into the kitchen.

Note: To bind odours in circulating-air mode, you must install an activated carbon filter. The different options for operating the appliance in circulating-air mode can be found in the brochure. Alternatively, ask your dealer. The required accessories are available from specialist retailers, from customer service or from the Online Shop.

1. If no duct is to be fitted, screw in the two locking screws without the bracket. B

Connecting the pipes

If the extractor hood is to be operated in exhaust-air mode, the pipes must be connected. If the extractor hood is to be operated in air-recirculation mode, an optional accessory must be fitted. To do this, refer to the installation instructions provided.

Note: If an aluminium pipe is being used, smooth the connection area beforehand.

Exhaust air pipe, dia. 150 mm (recommended size)

Fit the exhaust air pipe directly to the air-pipe connector and seal the joint.

Exhaust air pipe, dia. 120 mm

1. Fit the reducing connector directly to the air-pipe connector.
2. Attach the exhaust air pipe to the reducing connector.
3. Use suitable means to seal both joints.

Attaching the flue duct

If the extractor hood is to be operated in exhaust-air mode, a flue duct must be fitted.

The flue duct does not need to be fitted for air-recirculation mode.

Risk of injury!

From sharp edges during installation. Always wear protective gloves while installing the appliance.

Risk of electric shock!

Components inside the appliance may have sharp edges. These may damage the connecting cable. Do not kink or pinch the connecting cable during installation.

1. Separate the flue duct sections by removing the adhesive tape.
2. Remove the pieces of protective film from both flue duct sections.
3. Push one flue duct section into the other.

Notes

■ To prevent scratches, lay paper over the edges of the outer flue duct section to protect the surface.
■ The slots of the inner flue duct section point downwards.

1. Place flue ducts sections on the appliance.

2. Slide the inner flue duct section upwards, attach it to the left and right sides of the retaining bracket, and then slide it down to engage it. A

3. Screw the flue duct section to the sides of the retaining bracket using two screws. B
