- Height between the bottom surface of your hood and the top surface of the oven should be no less than 650 mm for gas ovens and 500 mm for electrical ovens. Otherwise,

your product will be affected by the heat or flame of the hob and pose a safety hazard.

• (For Model C) In electrical ovens, the highest performance in the product is achieved by leaving a height of 550 mm.
- Never attach the hood to flues used as a flame heater or flame-emitting heaters. Comply with local regulations on purging the outflow.
- Use pipes with a diameter of 120 mm when connecting a flue to your product. The pipe connection should be as short as possible and with few bends.

1.6 Safety of Use

- Poisoning Danger! While the appliance is operating, air is drawn from the whole house. If adequate ventilation is not provided, air flow occurs and the waste and toxic gases released as a result of combustion in the house are reabsorbed. Do not operate the product together with products that provide air circulation and may emit toxic gas (wood, gas, oil and coal stoves, boilers, water heaters, etc.).

- Ensure that the appliance is switched off after every use.

• Don't use the product if it breaks down or gets damaged while being used. Disconnect the product from the electricity. Contact the importer or the authorized service centre.
• Do not touch the lamps of your hood after operating the hood for a long time. Hot lamps may burn your hand.
• Do not operate the appliance without an oil filter. Do not remove the filters while the appliance is operating. Otherwise the product and electrical connections may be adversely affected by the oil.
• Do not create a high flame under the product. Otherwise, the oil in the oil filter may ignite, causing a fire.
• Turn off the oven before taking the cooking pots, pans, etc. from the ovens. Otherwise, your product could be harmed by flame and growing heat.
• Never set anything combustible or items prone to falling on your hood. Otherwise, it could fall on the hop and risk burning them or fall into the food and hurt the user,
• Do not keep easily flammable materials under your hood.
• (Except for goods that return exhaust air to the room) The room needs to be well ventil-

ated if the hood is utilized in the same area as gas or liquid fuel burning equipment.

• The chimney of appliances like room heaters that run on gas or liquid fuel must be entirely insulated in the environment where the hood is utilized, or the appliance must be hermetic.
• If there is another appliance operating with energy other than electrical energy in the same environment with the hood, the negative pressure in the room should be at most 0.04 mbar so that the exhaust of the other appliance is not drawn back into the room by the hood.
• Easily flammable and combustible materials should not be hung on the hood handles (if any).

In this case, automatic mode will be turned off when the temperature difference is equalized or the odour level goes down.

Do not use automatic mode when your hob is not working.

If there is another factor that may increase the heat in the environment or the odour apart from the hob, the duration of automatic mode might prolong.

6 Maintenance and Cleaning

6.1 General Cleaning Information

General warnings

• Wait for the product to cool before cleaning the product. Hot surfaces may cause burns!
• Do not apply the detergents directly on the hot surfaces. This may cause permanent stains.
  • The product should be thoroughly cleaned and dried after each operation. Thus, food residues shall be easily cleaned and these residues shall be prevented from burning when the product is used again later. Thus, the service life of the appliance extends and frequently faced problems are decreased.
• Do not use steam cleaning products for cleaning.
• Some detergents or cleaning agents cause damage to the surface. Unsuitable cleaning agents are: bleach, cleaning products containing ammonia, acid or chloride, steam cleaning products, de-scaling agents, stain and rust removers, abrasive cleaning products (cream cleaners, scouring powder, scouring cream, abrasive and scratching scrubber, wire, sponges, cleaning cloths containing dirt and detergent residues).

Using the hood via the smart device

1. Open the HomeWhiz app on your smart device.

→ Your product shall be present in the application page.

1. Touch on the product.

The hood control and monitoring page shall be displayed. On this display, you can adjust the lamp illumination level and the working speed of your hood. You can also activate the air purification mode, see your filter fill level, reset the filter fill level at any time you want.

• No special cleaning material is needed in the cleaning made after each use. Clean the appliance using dishwashing detergent, warm water and a soft cloth or sponge and dry it with a dry cloth.
• Be sure to completely wipe off any remaining liquid after cleaning and immediately clean any food splashing around during cooking.
• Do not wash any component of your appliance in a dishwasher unless otherwise stated in the user's manual.

Inox - stainless surfaces

• Do not use acid or chlorine-containing cleaning agents to clean stainless-inox surfaces and handles.
• Stainless-inox surface may change colour in time. This is normal. After each operation, clean with a detergent suitable for the stainless or inox surface.
• Clean with a soft soapy cloth and liquid (non-scratching) detergent suitable for inox surfaces, taking care to wipe in one direction.
• Remove lime, oil, starch, milk and protein stains on the glass and inox surfaces immediately without waiting. Stains may rust under long periods of time.

- Cleaners sprayed/applied to the surface should be cleaned immediately. Abrasive cleaners left on the surface cause the surface to turn white.

Glass surfaces

• When cleaning glass surfaces, do not use hard metal scrapers and abrasive cleaning materials. They can damage the glass surface.
• Clean the appliance using dishwashing detergent, warm water and a microfiber cloth specific for glass surfaces and dry it with a dry microfiber cloth.
• If there is residual detergent after cleaning, wipe it with cold water and dry with a clean and dry microfiber cloth. Residual detergent may damage the glass surface next time.
• Under no circumstances should the dried-up residue on the glass surface be cleaned off with serrated knives, wire wool or similar scratching tools.
• You can remove the calcium stains (yellow stains) on the glass surface with the commercially available descaling agent, with a descaling agent such as vinegar or lemon juice.
• If the surface is heavily soiled, apply the cleaning agent on the stain with a sponge and wait a long time for it to work properly. Then clean the glass surface with a wet cloth.
  • Discolorations and stains on the glass surface are normal and not defects.

Plastic parts and painted surfaces

• Clean plastic parts and painted surfaces using dishwashing detergent, warm water and a soft cloth or sponge and dry them with a dry cloth.
• Do not use hard metal scrapers and abrasive cleaners. They may damage the surfaces.
• Ensure that the joints of the components of the product are not left damp and with detergent. Otherwise, corrosion may occur on these joints.

6.2 Cleaning the inside surface of the hood

Follow the cleaning steps described in the "General Cleaning Information" section according to the surface types in your product.

The inner surface of the product and the parts inside may have sharp surfaces. Be careful while cleaning.

6.3 Cleaning the Control Panel

• When cleaning the panels with knob-control, wipe the panel and knobs with a damp soft cloth and dry with a dry cloth. Do not remove the knobs and gaskets underneath to clean the panel. The control panel and knobs may be damaged.
• While cleaning the inox panels with knob control, do not use inox cleaning agents around the knob. The indicators around the knob can be erased.
• Clean the touch control panels with a damp soft cloth and dry with a dry cloth. If your product has a key lock feature, set the key lock before performing control panel cleaning. Otherwise, incorrect detection may occur on the keys.

6.4 Aluminium Filter

This filter serves to retain oil particles in the air. It is recommended to clean the filter once a month under normal usage. To achieve this:

1. Remove the aluminium filters.
2. Wash the filters in water using liquid detergent and reinstall after drying.
   Aluminium filters may change colour as they are washed; this is normal and does not require replacing your filters.

You can also wash the aluminium filter in the dishwasher. (max. 70°C)
