Frequently Asked Questions - F179 Airforce

What is the minimum safety distance between the Airforce F179 hood and the cooking hob?
The minimum distance is 60 cm for an all-electric hob. For a mixed or gas hob, also respect 60 cm or the distance indicated by the hob manufacturer if greater.
How to clean the anti-grease filter of the Airforce F179 hood?
The metallic anti-grease filter should be cleaned once a month. Wash it by hand with a mild detergent or in the dishwasher on a low temperature short cycle. Dishwasher washing may discolor the filter but does not affect its performance.
How to reset the filter saturation indicator?
To reset, press the corresponding button (red indicator) after cleaning or replacing the filter. On the touch model, press the corresponding button until the light turns off. Note: this operation should be done only after maintenance.
What to do if the LED lighting no longer works?
The LED lamps are integrated and cannot be replaced individually. If the lighting unit is defective, contact technical support to have the whole unit replaced.
How to use the timer on the Airforce F179 hood?
The timer is available for the first 4 speeds. Once the speed is selected, touch the corresponding button again to activate a 5-minute delayed shutdown. The hood will turn off automatically.
Can I use the hood without a charcoal filter?
Yes, if you use the hood in vented version (external extraction). If you install the hood in recirculation mode (filtering), the charcoal filter is mandatory to absorb odors.
How does the heat detector work?
Press simultaneously buttons 1 and 2 to activate automatic mode. The temperature detector then adjusts the suction speed according to the heat generated by cooking. To return to manual mode, press button B.
Why does the hood turn off by itself?
The hood has an automatic shutdown after 4 hours of continuous operation without pressing any button. This is a safety feature to prevent unnecessary prolonged use.
How to regenerate the charcoal filter?
The charcoal filter can be regenerated only once. Put it in the dishwasher on a low temperature cycle, then dry it in an oven at 90°C for about 10 minutes. After this regeneration, it must be replaced at the next saturation.
What type of cable and plug are needed for the Airforce F179 hood?
The hood is supplied with a 1250 mm cable. If it has a plug, plug it into a suitable socket. If it has no plug, have a qualified technician install a bipolar switch with a contact gap of at least 3 mm.

The appliance should not be used by children under 8 years of age and by persons with reduced physical, sensory and mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or have received instructions regarding the safe use of the appliance and are aware of the possible risks. Children must not play with the appliance. Any intended cleaning and maintenance by the user should not be carried out by children unless supervised. The hood should never be used without without the grid properly fitted! Never use the hood without the grill properly fitted!

The accessible components can overheat when the cooktop is in use.

The hood must not be connected to the flues of other appliances that run on gas or other fuels. When the hood is used at the same time as other appliances that run on gas or other fuels, provision must be made for an adequate supply of air. No food must be cooked flambe underneath the hood. The use of an unprotected flame could cause damage to the filters and could cause fires, so should be avoided. When frying food, never leave the pan unattended because the cooking oil could flare up. Please comply with the technical and safety provisions set forth by your local competent authorities regarding the ventilation of hoods.

This appliance conforms to European Directive 2002/96/EC, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Please dispose of this product correctly in the interest of health and the environment.

The symbol on the product, or on the documents accompanying the product, indicates that this appliance may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal. For more detailed information about treatment, recovery and recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product. If the power cable is damaged you should, in the interest of safety, contact the manufacturer or the manufacturer's technical assistance service to request a replacement, or ask someone who is similarly qualified.

Check also the drawings on the initial pages with the alphabetical and numerical references in the explanatory text. Closely follow the instructions in this manual. We cannot accept liability for any faults, detriment or fire damage to the appliance due to non-compliance with the manual's instructions.

You should affix the hood to a wall of sufficient weight-bearing capacity, so not to one made of plasterboard.

The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 60~cm from the cooking plane for electric cookers and 60cm for gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only. Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily removed, in case maintenance is ever required.

The cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit B for discharging fumes externally for models including chimney flue C (Suction Version A- exhaust pipe not supplied). If cooking fumes and vapours cannot be externally discharged, the cooker hood can be used in the recirculating version F: the installation of 1 active charcoal filter F allows the recirculation of fumes and vapours through the upper grid G.

Make sure that there is a power socket near the hood and that the system has a 30mA differential. The mains voltage must be the same as that on the label inside the hood. The hood has a 1250mm power cable with or without plug: if it does have a plug, connect the hood to an accessible approved socket; or if it does not (connection direct to the mains), fit an approved bipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of no less than 3mm (accessible). This installation and electrical connection must be executed by a qualified technician.

If the cooking top is in use, the cooker hood must always operate.

Product performance test carried out in accordance with standard (EU) No 65/2014-Ref: IEC 61591

Maintenance

Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood is disconnected from the electrical outlet.

Cleaning

The hood must be cleaned frequently both inside (apart from the area behind the grease filter) and outside. Use a cloth moistened with neutral liquid detergents. Never use products containing abrasives.

Warning

Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Therefore we recommend observing these instructions.

Anti-grease Filter

must be cleaned once a month, with non-abrasive detergents, by hand or in dishwasher on low temperature and short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

Charcoal Filter - (only for filter version)

Carbon filters can be regenerated only once by washing at low temperature in a dishwasher, then drying in an ordinary kitchen oven at 90^ for approx. 10 minutes. Each filter must be regenerated or replaced as soon as the respective warning indicator on the hood lights up. For hoods without filter replacement warning indicators, we recommend washing / replacement approximately every six months assuming the hood and cooker are in normal use.

Reducing environmental impact:

To reduce energy consumption, we recommend you always use the lowest suction speed among those suitable for the cooking mode currently active, avoid leaving the appliance running for more than 15 minutes after burner shutdown and switch off the lights if you leave the cooking area.

Replacing lightbulbs

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

Led Light

If the lighting group LED does not work, please contact the technical service center in order to replace the whole group.
