background
For the installer
When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted
with a 120mm diameter hose. Attention: The hose is not
supplied and must be purchased separately.
When installing the hood observe the following
minimum distances from the cooking top:
electric cookers 600mm
gas cookers 700mm
The hood can be installed above these heights but for
optimum performance it should be installed at the distance
quoted for the appropriate heat source.
The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a
maximum depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms.
The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or
combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no
circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms
in which fuel-burning appliances are installed.
The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations
laid down by the relevant local authorities.
When the unit is used in extraction mode, a sufficiently
large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions
that are approximately the same as the outlet hole.
National and regional building regulations impose a
number of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning
appliances connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil
room-heaters and gas fires, in the same room.
Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected
to a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment
combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable
ventilation hole approximately 500-600 cm² large to avoid
the possibility of a depression being created during
operation of the hood.
If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling
authority or building inspector’s office.
Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is
“outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole
of 500-600 cm², which is to say a larger hole, could
reduce the performance of the extractor hood.
If the hood is used in its recirculation mode, it will operate
simply and safely in the above conditions without the need
for any of the aforementioned measures.
When the hood is used in its extraction mode, the
following rules must be followed to obtain optimal
operation:
- short and straight outlet hose.
- keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum.
- never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must
always follow a gentle curve.
- keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same
diameter as the outlet hole).
3 safety warnings
- the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90° will reduce the efficiency of the
hood and reduce the airflow.
Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically
reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of
the extractor hood.
For the user
The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours
from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
Always cover lighted elements to prevent excess heat
from damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and
coal fired cookers it is essential to avoid open flames.
Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker
top/cooker under careful control.
The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to
overheating.
The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used
is dirty.
It is extremely important to note that overheating can
cause a fire.
Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood.
Always disconnect the unit from the power supply
before carrying out any work on the hood, including
replacing the light bulb
(take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off
the automatic circuit breaker)
It is very important to clean the hood and replace
the filter at the recommended intervals. Failure to do
so could cause grease deposits to build up, resulting
in a fire hazard.
The appliance is not intended for use by young children or
infirm persons without supervision.
Older children must be supervised if using the appliance.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
WARNING:-
Ensure that the appliance is switched off before
replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric
shock.

Safety warnings for the electrician
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply, check
that the voltage indicated on the rating plate corresponds to
the mains power supply available. Appliances fitted with a plug
can be connected to any standard power socket within easy
access.
Should it be necessary to provide a fixed connection, the hood
must only be installed by an electrician authorized by the local
electricity board. When installing, an omnipolar disconnector
with a distance of at least 3mm between contacts must be
provided.
Fixed connection of the appliance must only be carried out by
an authorized electrician.
Electrical connection (for UK only)
Safety warnings for the electrician
Connect the hood to the mains supply via a double pole
switch which has 3mm minimum separation between the
contacts.
The switch must be accessible at all times.

maintenance and care 8
Cleaning the hood
Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a
solution of water and mild washing up liquid.
Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning
products or products containing bleach.
Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.
Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a
damp cloth and mild washing up liquid.
It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the
filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will
cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a
fire hazard.
Metal grease filter
The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease
particles which form during cooking and it must always be
used, either in the external extraction or internal
re-circulation function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed
and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher,
every four weeks.
Removing the metal grease filters
Push it towards the back of the unit and then pull it down
and out. (Fig. 3)
Hand Washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a
grease-loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot
water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease
filters when they are dry.
Dishwasher
Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful
washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C.
Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a
slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have
any impact on its performance.
Clean the inner housing using a hand hot solution only
(never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or
brushes).
Changing the light bulb
Ensure the appliance is switched off before carrying out
maintenance, to avoid any possibility of electric shock.
Remove grease filter to replace lamp. Replace with 40W
(maximum) E14 candle lamp. (Fig. 4)
WARNING:-
Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning the unit
and changing the filters will cause a fire hazard. You
are therefore strongly recommended to follow 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.
HOODS WITH HALOGEN LAMPS:-
If the halogen lamps need replacing, they must be
replaced by lamps with an aluminium reflector, never
dichroic lamps, to avoid unnecessary overheating in
the lamp holders.
IMPORTANT:-
The hood must always be disconnected from the
electricity supply before beginning any maintenance
work.

Charcoal filter
The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use
the hood in the recirculation function.
This filter cannot be cleaned or reused.
As a general rule, the activated charcoal filter should
be changed once every four months.
Fitting - Fig. 5
Fit one charcoal filter on the left and one on the right so to
cover the plastic grids that protect the fan wheel.
Always specify the hood model code number and serial
number when ordering replacement filters. This information
is shown on the registration plate located on the inside of
the unit.
The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local Service
Center.

Solution
The cooker hood will not start…
The safety cut-out device has been tripped.
Turn off the hob and then wait for the device to reset.
If the hood has been installed below the heights indicated in the
installation instructions the motor will cut-out frequently which will
damage the hood.
The cooker hood has switched off
during operation…
The cooker hood is not working...
Check that: The fan speed is set high enough for the task.
The grease filters are clean.
The kitchen is adequately vented to allow the entry of fresh air.
If set up for recirculation, check that the charcoal filter is still effective.
If set up for extraction, check that the ducting and outlets are not
blocked.
If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Center, quoting the model and serial number.
Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any in-guarantee service calls.
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is
not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.
