SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Whilst this product is compliant with all safety requirements, incorrect or
inappropriate use can lead to both personal injury and potential damage to
property. Please read the contents of this instruction booklet thoroughly before
fitting or using this appliance.
• The cooker hood must be installed in accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements followed.
• All installation work must be carried out by a competent person or qualified
electrician.
• The unit must be connected to an earthed power supply.
• If venting externally, make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than 90
degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the cooker hood.
• The cooker hood is for domestic use only and is not designed for commercial
use. It should only be used for the purpose it was intended – to extract vapours
and cooking odours.
• Do not flambé or use an open flame under the cooker hood.
• Do not try to use the cooker hood without the grease filters or if the filters are
excessively greasy. They should be cleaned regularly (see “Maintenance”) or
replaced as necessary.
• The extraction fan must be level to avoid grease collection at one end, as this
could cause a potential fire risk.
• Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated fat or oils
might catch fire.
• If the cooker hood is damaged, do not attempt to use it.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved.
• Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance
shall not be made by children without supervision.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance. It is not a toy.
• The plug must be accessible after installation for isolation in case of an
emergency – or an appropriate fused switch if the unit is hard-wired to the
mains via a spur.
4
• The minimum distance between the surface of the hob and the lowest part of
the hood should be at least 65cm. A distance of between 65cm and 75cm
gives peak efficiency.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• When the hood is vented externally and used with appliances which burn fuel
(e.g. gas, oil, wood) the area must be sufficiently ventilated to ensure safe
operation. Fresh air must be allowed to freely enter the room to prevent a
partial vacuum.
• A partial vacuum can starve the heating appliance of oxygen, impairing
combustion. It can also prevent toxic fumes from leaving the room, or can
cause fumes to be sucked into the room from outside.
• Safe operation is only possible when the partial vacuum within the working
area does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved by ensuring air
is able to enter the room from outside through a suitable sized opening which
cannot be sealed during operation. A number of alternative solutions are
available to ensure this. If in any doubt, professional advice should be sought.
• Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
• There is a potential fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the
instructions.
• Clean your appliance periodically by following the method given in the chapter
MAINTENANCE
• If used in recirculation mode, the charcoal filters trap odours and must be
replaced at least once a year depending on how frequently the cooker hood
has been used.
• For safety reasons, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting screw,
which are recommended in this instruction manual.
• Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these
instructions may result in electrical hazards
CAUTION: Accessible parts of the hood can become very hot during
use with cooking appliances, whether in use or not, due to heat rising
from the hob. Sufficient time should be allowed for the unit to cool before
touching either the housing or the grease filters
5
OPTIONS FOR VENTILATION
This hood can be set up for either external venting or recirculation of the air. The type of setup
should be decided before commencing installation.
EXTERNAL VENTING
If you have an outlet to the outside, your cooker hood can be
connected as shown in the diagram using any suitable
extraction duct (enamel, aluminium, flexible pipe or
inflammable material with an interior diameter of 150mm) can
be used.
An adaptor is supplied to enable you to connect your hood to
pre-existing 120mm diameter ducting.
If this is the chosen installation method consideration to the
route of the vent pipe should be made prior to installation.
RECIRCULATION
This cooker hood also supports the recirculation of air once it has
passed through the filters. The filtered air is then expelled through
the vent holes in the side of the chimney.
When setting the unit up in this configuration, carbon filters should
also be used to remove odours from the air. Details of sourcing
and fitting the filters can be found in the Carbon filter section.
When setting up for recirculation the installation instructions should
be followed, but a vent pipe should not be attached, and instead
the air can be routed back into the room through the top of the unit.

BEFORE USAGE
Before usage, read all the instructions and make
sure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz)
indicated on the identification plate (found inside
the cooker hood) and all the data inside the
appliance are exactly the same as the voltage and
frequency in your home.
Plug the power lead into the power socket (or if
connecting directly to the mains via a switched
spur, ensure the work is carried out by a
competent, qualified person) and the cooker hood
is then ready for use.
UNPACKING YOUR APPLIANCE
• Please take great care when unpacking; a sharp blade should not be used to open the box,
as it may go deep enough inside to damage components. Components damaged or marked
by careless unpacking are not covered under the guarantee.
• Carefully unpack the contents and check against the section below (Parts) and the next
section (Product overview).
• Packaging materials should be recycled in accordance with local regulations

INSTALLATION
Before installation, ensure you have not connected the appliance to the mains supply.
1. The base of the cooker hood should be placed at a distance of
70~80cm above the cooking plane for best performance.
2. Drill 3 holes to accommodate the wall bracket. Screw and
tighten the wall bracket onto the wall with the screws (4mm x
30 mm) and wall plugs provided.
3. Hang the appliance onto the wall bracket
hook and fix the appliance using the 2 screws
(4mm x 30mm).
5. Plates I and II are used to fix the chimney onto the
wall. Slide the inner chimney on to the outer chimney
and place in position on top of the hood. Mark the
position for plate II. Then slide the inner chimney
upwards to the desired height, and mark the location
for plate I.
6. The holes to accommodate the two plates can then
be drilled, and both the brackets fixed to the wall using
two screws (4mm x 30mm) and wall plugs for each.
NOTE: Fixing the chimney to wall plate is done at the
end of installation.
10
7. The 2 x air flaps should be installed at this
stage, as access is easier before the unit is
wall mounted. On the top of the Hood Unit
itself, where the air outlet vent is located, the 2
x flaps should be carefully installed, bending
very slightly so the lugs at each end locate into
the holes, enabling flaps to pivot upwards
when the unit is in operation, opening up the
outlet fully for the air to pass through. Please
note – the small spindles/lugs at each end of
each flap locate into the holes on the housing,
not the grooves above them:
9. Put the chimneys back onto the cooker hood. Hook the
outer chimney onto plate II. Lift up the inner chimney to the
desired height and hook in onto plate I. Alternatively Plate I
can be attached to the chimney using 2 x 10mm screws
(Supplied).
10. Plug the power lead into
the power socket (or if
connecting directly to the
mains via a switched spur,
ensure the work is carried
out by a competent,
qualified person) and the
cooker hood is then ready
for use.
11
CARBON FILTER (Available separately)
Activated carbon filters can be used to trap odors, and must be used if the hood is not vented
to the outside. They are available from the same stockist you purchased the hood from under
the following reference:
eIQTMCARBONCHIM (Carbon Filter Pack of 2)
In order to install the activated carbon filter, the metallic anti-grease filter should first be
detached. Press the lock and pull it downward.
Put the activated carbon filter into the unit, fix it by turning them clockwise it at each end of the
motor (see diagram below)
Repeat the same on the opposite side.
NOTE:
• Make sure the filter is securely locked. Otherwise, it could loosen and cause damage to
the unit.
• When the activated carbon filters are attached, the suction power will be lowered.
• The charcoal filters cannot be washed or recycled. They should be changed at three or
six months according to the amount of use the hood receives. Replacements are
available from the stockist you purchased the hood from.
12
OPERATION
Operation of your hood is extremely simple. There are essentially 3 controls: Power On/Off;
Fan Speeds (3 separate buttons) and Illumination.
Push buttons
Off button
Used for turning off the fan.
Low Speed button
Starts the fan in low speed mode. It is suitable for simmering and cooking which do not
make much steam.
Medium Speed button
Starts the fan at medium speed. This is ideal for ventilation during standard cooking
operation.
High Speed button
Starts the fan in high speed. This is ideal for when a high density of smoke or steam has
been produced.
Light button
Used for turning on/off the light.
13
MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, switch the unit off and pull out the plug, or switch off at the relevant mains
switch if the unit has been hard-wired. Make sure the unit has no power being fed to it.
REGULAR CLEANING
Use a soft cloth moistened with hand-warm mildly soapy water or household cleaning
detergent. Never use metal pads, chemicals, abrasive material or a stiff brush to clean the
unit.
NOTE: Do not use a steam-cleaner to clean the hood; electrical components could be
damaged or short-circuit as a result.
MONTHLY CLEANING FOR METALLIC ANTI-GREASE FILTER
ESSENTIAL NOTE: Clean the filter every month; an excessive build-up of grease can
become a fire hazard. The filter collects grease, smoke and dust, so the filter directly affects
the efficiency of the cooker hood. If it’s not cleaned, the grease residue (potentially
flammable) will saturate on the filter.
Remove the filter as shown in the Installation section. Clean it with a soft nylon brush in a mild
solution of warm water and a small amount of washing up liquid. Washing up liquid alone
should not be used. After cleaning, allow the filter to drain and then dry thoroughly.
The grease filter may also be cleaned in a dishwasher using a 60°C program, with the filter
upright (short sides upright) in the lower basket. Please be aware some dishwasher cleaning
agents can permanently discolor the filter, though this will not affect its performance.
Replacement grease filters are available from the same stockist from which you purchased
the hood under the following reference:
eiQTMGREASE4
REPLACEMENT FOR ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
These are only required in units that have been installed in recirculation mode. This filter traps
odours and must be replaced ideally every 3-6 months depending on how frequently the
cooker hood has been used. They are not washable or reusable. Replacements are available
from the retailer the hood was purchased from under reference: eIQTMCARBONCHIM
