The model you have selected is a decorative suction cooker hood which can also work as filtering hood.

A SUCTION HOOD extracts air, fumes and vapours from the inside environment and then expels them outside. It is not necessary to use carbon filters for purifying.

A FILTERING HOOD extracts air, fumes and vapours from the inside environment, purifies them by means of carbon filters and then emits the purified air into the same environment. In this case, the use of carbon filters is absolutely necessary.

Carbon filters are available separately and can be purchased as optional accessories (see OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES).

BEFORE MOUNTING

Before mounting you should:

Check that the minimum distances between the lower part of the cooker hood and the upper part of the cooker as given in FIGURES M 1. We advice a distance between 700 and 800 mm.

WARNING! If the user decides to install the hood at lower distances, the manufacturer declines any responsibility for eventual damages caused by the hood due to strong heat or damages to property or persons etc. caused directly or indirectly by any type of malfunctioning breakdown or possible fire.

Arrange for a socket outlet or standard connection to the electric mains.

If the hood is used as a suction hood, it is necessary to make a hole towards the outside (i.e. in the open air) for the scavenging of the fumes.

WARNING! The air discharge of the hood must go outside by means of a separate chimney and cannot be connected to a boiler chimney, gas, fume or vapour scavenging pipes or any other duct. The incorrect mounting of a cooker hoods can create fires. It is necessary to observe the cantonal dispositions of the fire-brigade.

If the hood is used as a suction hood, it is necessary to guarantee enough air-exchange.

In case a cooker hood is used in modern air tight buildings with or without confort air, it is necessary to make in advance a planning for the air flow.

The contemporary use without danger of appliances connected to chimneys (for instance fireplaces or furnaces, gas or other fuel stoves) and cooker hood is allowed only if the room or the flat dispose of an opening for the air from the outside of ca 500/600 cm ^2 and if with the use of the hood a depression is avoided.

The depression in the room must not be above 4 Pa (0.04 mbar).

If the hood is to be used as a filtering hood, it is necessary to purchase carbon filters. They are available as ACCESSORIES.

Mount the hood as shown in the mounting instruction booklet.

WARNING! The fixing material (screws/plugs) that are delivered with the hood are suitable only for solid concrete ceilings and walls. The person who is mounting the hood should make sure that the fixing elements delivered with the hoods are right and suitable for the walls and ceiling he finds. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damages caused by incorrect mounting.

DISMANTLING AND RE-POSITIONING OF THE GREASE FILTERS

Switch the lights off and wait till they have completely cooled down.

Follow the steps as shown in Figures.

To dismantle the grease filter press the handle and, pull it downwards.

To re-position the grease filter insert them oblique in the opening, lift them in the front side and then fix them in the back side.

FITTING AND REMOVAL OF EVENTUAL CARBON FILTERS

If you wish to use the hood as a filtering hood, it is necessary to fit the carbon filters.

The carbon filters ARE OPTIONAL, and can be bought separately.

2 kinds of carbon filters are available:

• LONG LIFE Carbon filters that can be regenerated. The instructions are given with the filters.
• Standard Carbon filters that cannot be regenerated. The instructions you find in Figures C.

GENERAL WARNING

The pipe must be heat, flame and corrosionproof. The producer strongly advises against the use of reducers or pipes with smaller diameter to the hood outlet pipe. Also flexible aluminium pipes are not recommended because performance is strongly diminished.

The end part of the pipe, on the outside of the hole on the wall, must be of such a shape to avoid rain, gusts of wind or other foreign bodies getting into the pipe.

Should there be any doubt, contact anyone specialising in the installation of gas or ventilation system.

WARNING

The electrical connection can only be carried out by qualified professional personnel, using standard material and state of the art installation methods. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for installations carried out by unskilled persons and for installations which are not in conformity with the standard norms concerning electrical safety (both concerning methods and materials).

ELECTRICAL TECHNICAL DATA

The electrical technical data are available in the metallic rating plate of the hood. This you can find inside the hood after you have removed the grease filters.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

The flexible feed cable supplied is already connected internally and emerges from the hood near the air outlet duct.

It is possible to effect two types of electric installation:

• fixed installation;
  • installation by means of plug on a socket.

BEFORE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Before connection you must:

• Check that the electrical data indicated are in conformity with the main voltage and frequency values of the building where the hood is to be installed;
• Check that the building is fitted with electric safety systems to protect against short circuits and electric shock systems, according to the laws in force;
• Install an electric socket (or connection point) with a bipolar switch, which has contacts with an opening of at least 3 mms;
• If it is intended to install the hood with a plug, it is necessary that you have access to the plug.
• always turn off the main voltage supply by means of the bipolar switch before connecting and switch on again only when connections have been completed, tested and are safe.

WARNING! I When the hood is in stand by the intensity of the light is reduced. This is no failure.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IF REPAIRS ARE TO BE CARRIED OUT

Repairs must be carried out only by our SERVICE CENTERS. It is necessary to use only original spare parts.

Any repairs carried out by others could prove to be dangerous and could be a fire risk.

The hood must be mounted and connected in a proper way. Everything that do that you find in the instruction manual.

• The hood is not proper for the use of people (children included) with reduced mental, physical and sensorial capacities or for people that have no experience or knowledge to use it, unless they have been trained on purpose by the person responsible for their security or they acquire experience or knowledge from the instruction booklet.
• Do not to cook "flambé" dishes, avoid flames directly underneath the hood;
• Avoid free flames underneath the hood;
• Avoid any strong flames being issued from under saucepans at the sides; when frying, do not allow oil to splash or overheat in the pan, as this is a fire risk;
• before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the main supply, by means of the main switch or the bipolar switch or by removing the plug;
• A contemporary use without danger of appliances connected to pipes (like fireplaces or gas equipment) with the hood is allowed only if the room or flat have a proper opening for air arriving from the outside of circa 500/600 cm ^2 and if with the hood working a depression is avoided. For safe ventilation, maximum depression in the room should not exceed 4 Pa (0,04 mbar). The air discharge must be brought outside by a separate pipe and cannot be connected to a scavenging pipe or chimney.
• never use the hood without the grease filters;
• keep the grease filters clean, taking into account the recommended cleaning suggestions;
• replace or regenerate the carbon filters (if the hood is used as a filtering hood), at the intervals indicated;
• turn on the hood motor before you start cooking;

The cooker hood must be used only in private houses for domestic use and to aspirate vapours and fumes in the kitchen.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING OF GREASE FILTERS

The metallic grease filters are used to trap the grease that in normal use is contained in the kitchen vapours/fumes, thereby avoiding the deterioration of the motor. They can be handwashed or washed in the dishwasher.

For washing by hand, use hot water and soap; this can be done by hand brushing vigorously several times and then rinsing under the tap.

After washing, the grease filters should be dried and re-fitted correctly.

It is possible that after washing the filter colour changes slightly.

WARNING! We recommend washing grease filters after 50-100 hours of use of the hob.

If grease filters are dirty, motor can take in just a small quantity of air and performance is reduced.

The grease which accumulates on dirty filters is easily inflammable and can cause fires, if not eliminated by periodic washes.

The manufacturer declines any responsibility for fires caused by poor maintenance of the grease filters.

CARBON FILTERS

The carbon filters are used when the hood is in filtering version. The carbon sets the air free from kitchen odours. The carbon filters are to be found behind the grease filters and are necessary if the hood is used in filtering version.

It is not necessary to use carbon filters, if the hood is used for suction use.

We have kinds of carbon filters: LONG LIFE Carbon filters that can be regenerated and Standard Carbon Filters that cannot be regenerated.

LONG LIFE CARBON FILTERS

For carbon filter that can be regenerated you find an instruction with the filter.

The carbon filter that can be regenerated is marked with 230 °C on the frame.

INSTRUCTIONS: the carbon must be regenerated before the first use as the carbon, even if special active carbon, takes on humidity. The humidity must be taken away.

Put the filter cassette on the grill of your oven and let is warm up for 1 hour at 230^ C. Then wait for 2 hours to let it become completely cold. If the filter is remounted before 2 hours the hood can be damaged by remains of hot carbon. The process of regeneration can cause a light change in the colour of the filter cassette. After this time the filter can be remounted in the hood.

REGENERATION

Humidity and grease particules reduce the performances of air delivery and for this reason the filter must be regenerated according to the time given in the instruction booklet.

Put the filter- cassette on the grill of your oven and let it warm up for 1 hour at 230°C. Then wait for 2 hours to let it become completely cold. Only after this time the filter can be remounted and your hood can work for other 4 months. If you use the hood in an intensive

way, the filter must be regenerated in shorter time. After 4 years the filter looses its effectiveness and must be completely replaced (it is not possible to add special carbon).

STANDARD CARBON FILTERS (THAT CANNOT BE REGENERATED)

WARNING! WE RECOMMEND REPLACING CARBON FILTERS AFTER APPROX. 200-300 HOURS OF USE OF THE HOB. STANDARD CARBON FILTERS CANNOT BE WASHED OR RE-CYCLED.

The manufacturer denies any responsibility for fires caused by failure in the maintenance of carbon filters (replacing or regeneration of the carbon filters).

REPLACEMENT OF HALOGEN LAMPS

WARNING! Always replace the lamps with lamps which have the same electrical characteristics. Before replacing the lamps, make sure that they are cold and that power has been completely turned off.

Follow the instructions phases as shown in Figures of the L SERIES.

Connect back to electricity.

WARNING! If the lights are not working kindly check that the lamps have been inserted in a set way.

LED LAMPS

To replace faulty Led Lamps always use an ELECTROLUX SERVICE CENTRE.

CLEANING

To preserve the hood in good condition, clean this periodically following the advice given as follows.

WARNING! Make sure that power has been completely turned off.

The detergent solution recommended is a combination of WATER and NEUTRAL LIQUID SOAP. It is of vital importance that the liquid soap should not contain any grains which could scratch the surface.

The solution should be applied first onto a soft cloth which is then rubbed over the shell. It is important to follow the pattern of the satin finish with the cloth.

IT IS ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN TO POUR LIQUIDS DIRECTLY ONTO THE HOOD.

The cloth used should not have any buttons, zips, fasteners or anything else which could scratch the surface.

The use of harsh abrasive or granular products, petrol, spirits or similar products which could damage the surface of the material, is severely forbidden.

The manufacturer will not be responsible for any damages either functional or to the appearance of the hood, caused by cleaning operations carried out using unsuitable products or unsuitable methods.
