V OPERATION
The hood has a multispeed blower. Select one of the four power levels according to the intensity of the cooking vapors. Typically, levels "1" to "3" are
sufficient for normal cooking needs. It is recommended to turn the ventilation on while cooking and leave it after you have finished cooking until fumes
have been eliminated.
V.1 Hood controls operation (Fig. 5.1):
- TL button: turning the light on and off.
- T1 button: switching on the hood, set the first blower power level, switching off the blower.
- T2-T3-T4 button: selection of the second, third and fourth blower power levels.
The LED of the key in function remains steady. To turn the blower off when you are not at the first level, press T1 twice.
V.2 Adjustable and delayed self-switching off
With the hood in operation select the desired power level, then keep the TL button pressed for a few seconds until all the LEDs start to flash (T1, T2, T3,
T4). By pressing one of the buttons (T1, T2, T3, T4) you can program the delayed auto-off time, as follows: T1 corresponds to 5 minutes; T2 corresponds
to 10 minutes; T3 corresponds to 15 minutes; T4 corresponds to 20 minutes. During the auto-off operation, the set speed can be changed. If the selection
of the switch-off time corresponds to the speed set, the speed LED flashes; if the choice is different, the speed LED remains fixed. During the auto-off
operation, it is possible to deactivate the delayed switch-off by keeping the hood operating, by keeping pressed the button corresponding to the selected
delayed time. During the auto power-off function, it is still possible to turn off the hood by pressing T1 twice.
V.3 Maintenance warning for anti-grease filters
Every 30 hours of operation of the hood, when the hood is turned off, all the LEDs of the hood speed buttons light up for 30 seconds to alert the necessary
cleaning of the metal anti-grease filter. To reset the timer simply press and hold the T4 button with the blower off. If the timer is not reset, all the LEDs will
light up again each time the hood is switched off again.
V.4 Long-Life anti-odor filter (for ductless hoods)
Every 120 hours of operation of the hood, when the hood is switched off, all the LEDs of the speed buttons turn on with a flashing light for 30 sec. as a
reminder of the necessity to regenerate the Long-Life filter and the cleaning of the anti-grease filters. To reset the timer, simply keep pressing the T4
button with the blower off, if the reset procedure is not carried out the alarm will keep showing every time the hood is turned on.
VI MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply
The anti-grease filters in the hood remove solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc) and prevent soiling of the ventilation system. The
anti-grease filters should be cleaned every 3-4 weeks.
The metallic anti-grease filters must be washed with detergent in hot water (or in the dish-washer). The filters may discolor after a few washes. This is
normal and does not mean they have to be replaced. To remove the anti-grease filters, use the handle (Fig. 6.1). It is recommended to refit the metal
grease filters only if they are perfectly dry.
ATTENTION: A dirty filter is a fire hazard! It is, therefore, necessary to regularly clean the filters as per instructions.
The Long-Life anti-odor filter, where present, captures all the odors present in the cooking fumes, guaranteeing pure air in your kitchen. It does not have
to be replaced frequently like an ordinary activated charcoal filter, it can be regenerated every 3-4 months, or according to the frequency of use of the
hood, by a normal washing cycle in the dishwasher at about 70°C without any detergent, followed by drying in the oven for 30 minutes at 70°C. To keep
its efficiency high, it is recommended to replace the Long-Life filter after 6/8 regeneration cycles.
To remove the Long-Life anti-odor filter, simply remove the metal grease filter by its handle (Fig. 6.1). Take the Long-Life filter by the handles, extract it
(Fig. 6.2) and regenerate it. To install a new Long-Life anti-odor filter, remove the metal filter (Fig. 6.1) and place the Long-Life filter, the filter is secured
by magnets. Reinstall the metal grease filter.
The hood features LED light that, in addition to offering good lighting and significant energy savings, are guaranteed to last about 10 times more than
traditional lights. Replacement filters and spare-parts are available through your local dealer.
To remove the remaining glue or any impurity, the cooker hood must be cleaned immediately after installation and after having removed the protective
film.
The cooker hood must be cleaned frequently both internally and externally (at least once a month).
Do not allow an excessive accumulation of grease on the inner and outer surfaces of the hood.
To clean the exterior of the hood do not use either acid or basic products, or abrasive sponges.
All external surfaces can be cleaned with a mild solution of warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
Rinse with a damp cloth, removing all the detergent carefully, following the satin finish direction on the steel surface.
Drying is very important, especially in areas where water is particularly hard and leaves limestone.
It is not needed to remove the hood from the cabinet for ordinary and extraordinary maintenance.
