The appliance is intended for household use only.

The manufacturer reserves the right to introduce changes which do not affect the operation of the appliance.

●The manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any damage due to installation or operation not conforming to these instructionsi

● Cooker hood is designed to remove cooking odours. Do not use cooker hood for other purposes.

- Connect the cooker hood operating in extraction mode to a suitable ventilation duct (do NOT connect the cooker to smoke or flue gas ducts, which are in use). It requires installation of the air extraction duct to the outside. The duct length (typically 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 recirculation mode.

● Cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal filter. In this case, installing an extractor duct is not required, however it is recommended to install an air guide vane. (chimney cooker hoods only).

●The cooker hood features independent lighting and exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds.

- Depending on the type, the hood is designed 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.

●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).

- Do not leave an open flame under the hood. When the pots are removed from the burner, set the minimum flame. Always make sure that the flame does not ex-

tend outside the pot, because it causes unwanted loss of energy and a dangerous concentration of heat.

●Any food cooked in fat shall be constantly monitored, since overheated fat can ignite very easily.
- Pull the plug of the power cord from a wall socket before any filter cleaning or repair operation.
●The textile grease filter should be replaced, and the aluminium filter should be cleaned at least every one month in connection with the existing fire danger (saturated fat is very flammable).
- If any other non-electric devices are used in the same room as the hood (e.g. liquid fuel ovens, flow-through or volumetric water heaters), it is necessary to provide appropriate ventilation (air supply). Safe operation is possible when during simultaneous operation of the hood and combustion devices dependent on air supply the negative pressure of not more than 0.004 milibar is

maintained at the location of these devices inside the room (this point does not apply when the hood is used as an odour absorber).

●Do not lean on hood
●The hood should be frequently cleaned inside and on the outside surfaces (at least once a month). See “Cleaning section” in this manual.

• If the power wire gets broken, it should be replaced with a new one in a specialist repair shop.
• If the power wire gets broken, it should be replaced with a new one in a specialist repair shop.
  ●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.
  ●This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
  ●Children should be su-

pervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Check if the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to the local power supply parameters.
  ●Before installing unwind and straighten the power cord.
  ●Warning! The packaging materials (polyethylene bags, small pieces of foamed poly-

styrene etc.) should be kept away from children while unpacking.

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 recommended to make sure the hood operates correctly before installation.

INSTALLATION

Elements

Kitchen hood consists of the following elements (Pic. 2a):

1-Internal chimney

2-External chimney

3-Control panel

4-Lighting

5-Split extraction plate

Installation

Step-by-step appliance installation is shown on page 13-16

Setting the air extractor mode of operation of the hood

In the extractor mode air is discharged to the outside by a special conduit. In that setting any carbon filters shall be removed. The hood should be connected to the opening discharging air to the outside by means of a rigid or flexible conduit of

120 mm diameter, which should be purchased in a shop selling installation materials.

A qualified installer should be commissioned to make the connection.

Setting the odour absorber mode of operation of the hood

In this option filtered air returns to the room through openings in the front of the hood.

In this setting it is necessary to install the carbon filter. It is recommended to install the air guide (availability depending on model).

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.

A) Installation of ceiling connection plate

Front sticker (picture 3) on ceiling connection plate and control panel of chimney hood should have the same direction.

1) Drill 10mm holes from A,B,C,D points.
2)Drive 10mm wall plugs in to A,B,C,D holes.
3) Fix ceiling connection plate to ceiling by using
4 screws (5,5 x 45). Wall plugs, screws and ceiling connection plate are given with chimney hood - picture 3
