Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.
Ducting version
The cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit A with connection ring B, a discharge tube (not provided) should be mounted on the ring for discharging fumes and vapours externally. Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange). Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.
Filter version
When there is no exhaust duct for venting outdoors, you can use a carbon filter.
The air is depurated by the filter and put again in the surrounding. To use the appliance in this version, proceeded as follows:
The air is vented outdoors by a duct, passing through the wall units and connected to the connecting ring.
Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65cm from electric cookers and 75cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area apply a bi-polar switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
This hood is designed for fitting in a cabinet or on some other support.
Carry out the following instructions for affixing the cooker hood: Create an opening in the bottom of the cabinet to insert the cooker hood, and drill a hole on the top of the cabinet to fit the discharge tube, connect the cooker hood to an external pipe, predispose the electrical connection, remove the grill or the anti-grease filter, remove the frame C (if provided) by pressing on the two release hooks D (according to the model in possession, the release hook button D may be located externally or inside the cooker hood below the grease filter / grill), insert the cooker hood in the opening (lock in the lateral clasps E if provided by tightening the locking screws F), finally fix the cooker hood to the cabinet with wood screws G supplied. Remount the frame C (if provided), and suction grill H.
Operation
The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights.
The switch is located on the side of the suction grill H.
Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours. It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking and to leave in operation during cooking and for another 15 minutes approximately after terminating cooking.
Maintenance
ATTENTION! Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.
Grease filter
Traps cooking grease particles.
If situated inside the support grill, it may be one of the following types:
Paper filter must be replaced once a month or if colouring appears on upper side, in such cases the colouring is evident through the grill openings.
Sponge filter should be washed with hot soapy water once a month and replaced every 5 to 6 washes.
Metallic 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.
To access the grease filter J open the suction grill H via the release hooks L and free from the supports K.
Some models are provided with a metallic filter M without support grill, these should be washed as described above and removed from their housing by pressing the N handles towards the bottom.
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The saturation of the activated charcoal occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months.
The carbon filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
May be one of the following:
Rectangular: position the filter P in order to cover the motor protection grill and turn the handle clockwise until locked-in, for dismounting follow instructions in reverse.
Bayonet Circular-Insert position the filter in the centre (in certain cases use the Z hooks for centring the filter) in order to cover the motor protection grill ensuring that the X reference on the carbon filter corresponds to the Y reference on the conveyor, then turn clockwise; for dismounting follow instructions in reverse.
Replacing lamps
Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.
Remove the anti-grease filter support grill or the anti-grease filter to access the lamp area. Remove the damaged lightbulb and replace with an incandescent oval bulb maximum 40W E14.
In the case where model is provided with a halogen lightbulb, replace with halogen bulb of 20W (GU5.3 - ∅50mm).
If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for technical assistance.
