GUIDELINES CONCERNING THE SAFETY OF USE

l The manufacturer will accept no respon- sibility for any damage due to installation or operation not conforming to these in- structionsi l Cooker hood is designed to remove co- oking odours. Do not use cooker hood for other purposes. l Connect the cooker hood operating in extraction mode to a suitable ventilation duct (do NOT connect the cooker to smo- ke or ue gas ducts, which are in use). It requires installation of the air extraction duct to the outside. The duct length (typi- cally 120 or 150mm in diameter) should not exceed 4-5 m. The air exhaust duct is also required for telescopic and under furniture cooker hoods operating in air re- circulation mode. l Cooker hood operating in air recircula- tion mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal lter. In this case, in- stalling an extractor duct is not required, however it is recommended to install an air guide vane. (chimney cooker hoods only). l The cooker hood features independent lighting and exhaust fan that can be ope- rated at one of several speeds. l Depending on the type, the hood is de- signed to be permanently attached 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 installing, make sure that the wall/ceiling structure is strong enough to suspend the hood. Some hoods are very heavy. l For details of the installation distance above an electric hob please refer 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 removed from the burner, set the minimum ame. Al- ways make sure that the ame does not extend outside the pot, because it causes unwanted loss of energy and a dangero- us concentration of heat. l Any food cooked in fat shall be constantly monitored, since overheated fat can ig- nite very easily. l Pull the plug of the power cord from a wall socket before any lter cleaning or repair operation. l The textile grease lter should be re- placed, 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. liq- uid fuel ovens, ow-through or volumetric water heaters), it is necessary to provide appropriate ventilation (air supply). Safe operation is possible when during simul- taneous operation of the hood and com- bustion devices dependent on air supply the negative pressure of not more than

0.004 milibar is maintained at the loca-

tion of these devices inside the room (this point does not apply when the hood is used as an odour absorber). l Do not lean on hood l The hood should be frequently cleaned inside and on the outside surfaces (at least once a month). See “Cleaning sec- tion” in this manual. l If the power wire gets broken, it should be replaced with a new one in a specialist repair shop. l Make sure the appliance can be easily disconnected from the mains, either by pulling the plug out of the mains socket, or by switching the two-pole switch off. l This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, un- less they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the ap- pliance by a person responsible for their safety. l Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. l Check if the voltage indicated on the rat- ing plate corresponds to the local power supply parameters. l Before installing unwind and straighten the power cord. l Warning! The packaging materials (poly- ethylene bags, small pieces of foamed polystyrene etc.) should be kept away from children while unpacking. l NOTE: Before connecting the hood to the mains power supply always check that the power cord is properly installed and is not trapped by the appliance. It is recom- mended to make sure the hood operates correctly before installation.

i28 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. INSTALLATION Elements kitchen hood consists of the following elements (Fig. 2):

Installation Step-by-step appliance installation is shown on Fig.

Use control panel to control your cooker hood (Fig. 4) Speed Selection The product has 5 speeds of ventilation level. One of 1,2,3,4,5 speeds is selected in accordance with steam of cooking or fry. Motor is started pressing ” ” control button on the front panel. Speed is increased pressing ” > ”, button, and decreased by pressing ” < ”. Automatic timer (TIMER) is available at the models with electronic remote control. When you press ” ” button more than 2 seconds, timer function will be on for 15 minutes. When the timer is on, Display will signal and the motor will be off automatically 15 minutes later. Please use the cooker and the product at the same time to enable circulation. Doing so, air suction power will be affected positively. We recommend you to operate your product for few minutes more after the cooking is completed to enable absorption rest of smell and steam. Illumination The product has 4 lamps and one lamp button to operate illumination. Press lamp button ” ” in order to start illumination. Remote control unit (Fig. 4b) Your cooker hood can be controlled by a remote control unit. Remote control unit functions are described below:

4. Turn the light on/off

Press the POWER button to turn on the cooker hood fan. The fan will run at speed 2. The hood light can be switched on independently from the “POWER” button. To use the remote control unit: - Insert batteries in the remote control by removing the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote control unit. - Place the new batteries in the remote control unit according to the markings inside the battery com- partment. - Close the battery cover. - Point the remote control unit toward the front of the cooker hood. Ensure there are no obstacles between the remote control transmitter and the sensor on the cooker hood. Fluorescent light can interfere with the remote control operation. Batteries for the remote control are not included. Batteries can be purchased in any corner shop or retail outlet. Odour sensor (automatic mode) Touch „Auto” to activate/deactivate the odour sensor. Touch „Auto” to activate the odour sensor – „A” will be displayed for 1 minute (time it takes to activate and calibrate the sensor). In Auto mode the cooker hood detects air pollutants such as NH, NOx, CO, alcohol and at a minimal increase in air pollution (from the reference calibration) operates at speed 2. Higher air pollution causes fan speed to be increased. When odour sensor is active, the „A” symbol alternates with speed level on the display every 3 seconds. Touch „<” or „>” to change fan speed that is automatically selected based on odour sensor input. The appliance will operate at the new speed for one minute and then fan speed will be selected automatical- ly depending on the air purity. Odour sensor can operate at 9 sensitivity levels. Level 1 is the least sensitive, while level 9 is the most sensitive. The factory sensitivity setting is level 5. Touch „AUTO” and hold for 5 seconds. The sensitivity value will be ashing on the display. Touch „AUTO” again to adjust sensor sensitivity. Odour sensor (automatic mode) turns off after 15 minutes.30

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. Aluminium grease lter Cleaning 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). “E” symbol will be shown on the display and the appliance will operate normally. If you want to use your appliance while the “ ” symbol is still displayed, press the “ ” button. The speed indication will appear for 1 second, and then the “ ” symbol and the motor will keep running. NOTE: The “ ” symbol appears after 60 hours of the motor operation. Clean the grease lter by washing it in a dishwash- er (maximum washing temperature of 60°C) or by hand using a mild detergent or soap. To replace: Dismantling of aluminium grease lter is shown on Figure 5. Acrylic lter is used in some models. This lter sho- uld be replaced at least once every two months or more frequently if the appliance is used intensively. 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.31 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Recycling of the packaging Our packaging is made of envi- ronmentally friendly materials, which can be reused: l The external packaging is made of cardboard/ foil l The FCKW free shape of foamed polystyrene (PS) l Polyethylene (PE) foils and bags
