lThe manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any damage due to installation or operation not conforming to these instructionsi l Cooker hood is desi- gned to remove cooking odours. Do not use co- oker hood for other pur- poses. l Connect the cooker hood operating in extraction mode to a suitable ventilation duct (do NOT connect the cooker to smoke or ue gas ducts, which are in use). It requires installa- tion of the air extraction duct to the outside. The duct length (typically 120 or 150mm in diame- ter) should not exceed 4-5 m. The air exhaust duct is also required for telescopic and under furniture cooker hoods operating in air recircu- lation mode. l Cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal lter. In this case, instal- ling an extractor duct is not required, however it is recommended to in- stall an air guide vane. (chimney cooker hoods only).

l The cooker hood featu- res independent lighting and exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds. l Depending on the type, the hood is designed to be permanently atta- ched to a vertical wall over a gas or electric stove (chimney and universal hoods); on the ceiling over a gas or electric stove (island hoods); on the vertical built in furniture over a gas or electric stove (telescopic and built-in hoods). Before instal- ling, make sure that the wall/ceiling structure is strong enough to su- spend the hood. Some hoods are very heavy.50 l For details of the instal- lation distance above an electric hob please re- fer to product technical sheet If the installation instructions of the gas cooker specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account (Fig. 1a/b/c). l Do not leave an open ame under the hood. When the pots are re- moved from the burner, set the minimum a- me. Always make sure that the ame does not extend outside the pot, because it causes unwanted loss of ener- gy and a dangerous concentration of heat. l Any food cooked in fat shall be constantly monitored, since over- heated fat can ignite very easily. l Pull the plug of the power cord from a wall socket before any lter cleaning or repair op- eration. l The textile grease l- ter should be replaced, and the aluminium lter should be cleaned at least every one month in connection with the existing re danger (saturated fat is very ammable). l If any other non-electric devices are used in the same room as the hood (e.g. liquid fuel ovens, ow-through or volu- metric water heaters), it is necessary to provide appropriate ventilation (air supply). Safe op- eration is possible when during simultaneous op- eration of the hood and combustion devices de- pendent on air supply the negative pressure of not more than 0.004 milibar is maintained at the location of these devices inside the room (this point does not ap- ply when the hood is used as an odour ab- sorber). l Do not abut against the hood

GUIDELINES CONCERNING THE SAFETY OF USE51

l The hood should be frequently cleaned in- side and on the outside surfaces (at least once a month). See “Clean- ing section” in this man- ual. l If the power wire gets broken, it should be re- placed with a new one in a specialist repair shop. l Make sure the ap- pliance can be easily disconnected from the mains, either by pulling the plug out of the mains socket, or by switching the two-pole switch o󰀨. l This appliance is not intended for use by per- sons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capa- bilities, or lack of expe- rience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. l Children should be su- pervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. l Check if the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the local power supply parameters. l Before installing un- wind and straighten the power cord. l Warning! The pack- aging materials (poly- ethylene bags, small pieces of foamed poly- styrene etc.) should be kept away from children while unpacking. l NOTE: Before con- necting the hood to the mains power sup- ply always check that the power cord is prop- erly installed and is not trapped by the appli- ance. It is recommend- ed to make sure the hood operates correctly before installation. l Never use the hood wi- thout e󰀨ectively moun- ted grating! l The aming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited. l With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adop- ted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.

Fig 15 Rys.15 INSTALLATION58 Setting the air extractor mode of operation of the hood In the extractor mode air is discharged to the out- side by a special conduit. In that setting any carbon lters shall be removed. The hood should be con- nected to the opening discharging air to the outside by means of a rigid or exible conduit of 120 mm diameter, which should be purchased in a shop selling installation materials. A qualied installer should be commissioned to make the connection. Setting the odour absorber mode of operation of the hood In this option ltered air returns to the room through openings in the front of the hood. In this setting it is necessary to install the carbon lter. It is recommended to install the air guide (availability depending on model). In some universal hoods you need to switch lever inside the hood (Fig. 8) to switch between the extraction and air recirculation modes. The cle- aned air is returned to the room through the holes in the top of the unit. Furniture and telescopic cooker hoods operating in air recirculation mode require installation of the exhaust duct. The other end of the duct should be directed to the room as it will discharge ltered air. Fan speeds The lowest and medium speeds should be used under normal conditions and with low concentration of fumes. The maximum speed should be used in case of high concentration of kitchen fumes, e.g. during frying or grilling. INSTALLATION59

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Maintenance Regular maintenance and cleaning of the device will ensure faultless operation, and help extend the life of the unit. Attention should be paid to replacing grease and carbon lters according to instructions. Charcoal lter (only the recirculation version) Operation - Carbon lters can be used only when the hood is not connected to any ventilation duct. Filters with active carbon can absorb odours until they are saturated. They cannot be washed or re- generated and should be replaced at least every 2 months or more frequently in case of very intensive use. Replace: Dismantling of charcoal lter is shown on Figure 6. Lighting See Figure 7 for details how to replace lights. Use incandescent / halogen / LED modules of the same specication as those factory-installed in the ap- pliance. Cleaning Normal hood cleaning: l Do not use a soaked cloth, sponge, or water jet. l Do not use solvents or alcohol, as they may tarnish lacquered surfaces. l Do not use caustic substances, especially for cleaning stainless steel. l Do not use a rough or abrasive cloth. It is recommend to use a damp cloth and a neutral detergent. Aluminium lters may be washed in the dishwash- er. The colour of aluminium lters may change after several washings. This is normal and it is not nec- essary to renew the lters. Aluminium grease lter Clean the lter when the display shows " " approxi- mately every 2-3 weeks. To clear the above symbol (once the lter is cleaned and re-installed), hold the " " button for 3 seconds (make sure the hood is not operating).
