IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Your safety is of the utmost importance to Baumatic.
Please make sure that you read this instruction booklet
before attempting to install or use the appliance. If
you are unsure of any of the information contained in
this booklet, please contact the Baumatic Customer
Care Department.
IMPORTANT: Any installation work must be
carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
o The hood must be installed in accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements followed.
o If the cooker hood is installed for use above a gas appliance then
the provision for ventilation must be in accordance with the Gas
Safety Codes of Practice BS.6172, BS.5440 & BS.6891 (Natural
Gas) and BS.5482 (LP Gas) 1994, the Gas Safety (Installation &
Use) Regulations, the Building Regulations issued by the
Department of the Environment, the Building Standards
(Scotland) (Consolidated) Regulations issued by the Scottish
Development Department.
o It is dangerous to alter the specifications or to modify this
product. Do not tamper with it or attempt to modify the
appliance in any way.
o When installing the hood, ensure that the following
recommended distances are observed between the highest point
on the hob top (including the burners) and the bottom of the
cooker hood:
Electric cookers: 700 mm
Gas cookers: 700 mm
Coal/ oil cookers: 800 mm
IMPORTANT: DO NOT
SET YOUR COOKER HOOD LESS
THAN 700mm ABOVE YOUR COOKER.
5
o When installed between adjoining wall cabinets, the cabinets
must not overhang the hob.
o The edges of the cooker hood are sharp – be mindful of this as
you handle your appliance, especially during installation and
cleaning. DO NOT CLEAN IN BEHIND THE GREASE FILTERS!
o If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel
burning appliance such as a central heating boiler then its flue
must be of the sealed or balanced flue type.
o If other types of flue or appliances are fitted, ensure that there is
an adequate supply of air in the room.
o When the hood is being used in its extractor function, ensure
that the ducting is fire retardant and that there are no bends
sharper than 90 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the
hood.
o Ensure the ducting for the extractor function has the same
diameter as the outlet hole all the way through.
o Keep young children from using, playing with
or tampering with the cooker hood. Older
children and infirm persons should be
supervised if they are using the cooker hood.
o Your cooker hood is for domestic use only.
o Please dispose of the packing material carefully – children are
especially vulnerable to it.
o Dirty oil is an even greater fire risk.
o Always put lids on pots and pans when cooking
on a gas cooker.
6
o The manufacturer refuses to accept any responsibility for
damages arising to the hood or it catching on fire, from a failure
to observe the fire safety advice contained in this instruction
booklet.
o Remember that when in extraction mode, your cooker hood is
removing air from your room. Ensure that proper ventilation
measures are being observed.
o Note: Your cooker hood is designed to remove cooking
odours from the room and not steam.
o Warning - Always ensure that the cooker
hood has been disconnected from the
power supply before carrying out any work
on the hood, including replacing light bulbs.
o Do not connect the ducting system of this appliance to any
existing ventilation system which is being used for any other
purpose.
o Do not install above a cooker with a high level grill.
o Never leave frying pans unattended during use
as overheated fats and oils might catch fire.
o The lights on this appliance should only be used during operation
of the cooker hood. They should not be left on permanently and
used as a lighting source.
o The cooker hood should not be exposed to a direct heat source
from the cooking device underneath it, i.e. a naked flame from a
gas burner or heat from electric hob zones without a pan on
them.
o Do not attempt to use the cooker hood if it is damaged in any
way. Never attempt to use it without the grease filters fitted or
if the filters are excessively greasy!
o Never flambé cook under this cooker hood.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL
RESPONSIBILITY IN THE EVENT OF FAILURE TO
OBSERVE THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN HERE, FOR
INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND SUITABLE
USE OF THE HOOD.

Using your Baumatic cooker hood
Before first use
IMPORTANT: THIS PROCESS MUST BE FOLLOWED
BEFORE THE COOKER HOOD IS USED FOR THE FIRST

the stainless steel surfaces.
To use your cooker hood
Before operating the hood, make sure that it has been installed by a
suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in
Baumatic’s installation instructions.

secure the L shaped bracket to the wall, using the same method
as you have just used to secure the lower bracket.
13) Lift chimney section (D) up to the ceiling and secure it to the L
shaped bracket using the screws provided.
Completing the installation
If you are setting the appliance to recirculation mode, then you should
now fit the two carbon filters. See the “Fitting the carbon filters”
section on page 14 - 15.
The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement
noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the cooker hood. The
appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply. See page
15 - 16 for detailed information on the electrical connection.
Use a stainless steel cleaner on the stainless steel sections of the
appliance.
Refit the grease filter and then switch on the mains supply
to the appliance. Check that the appliance is operating
correctly by selecting each speed and switching the light
bulbs on and off.
23
Extraction mode or recirculation mode?
What is the difference between extraction and recirculation
modes?
o To get optimum performance from your cooker, the air will be
taken out of the room via external ducting.
o Unfortunately if you live in a flat or the hood is too far from an
outside wall, this may not be possible. The only alternative is to
recirculate the air.
o In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and
passed through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then re-
enters the kitchen via an opening in the hood.
What is a charcoal filter and do I need one?
o All cooker hoods have grease filters but if you are using your
cooker hood in recirculation mode, then charcoal filters must be
fitted in addition to the grease filters.
Troubleshooting
IMPORTANT: If your cooker hood appears not to be operating
properly, before contacting the Baumatic Customer Care
Department, please refer to the checklist below.
My cooker hood will not start.
o Check that the hood is connected to the electricity supply
o Check that the fan speed control is set correctly.
My cooker hood is not working effectively.
o The fan speed is not set high enough
o The grease filter is dirty and requires cleaning.
o The kitchen is not well ventilated enough.
o If the hood is set up for recirculation mode, check that the
carbon filters do not need replacing.
o If the hood is set up for extraction mode, check that the ducting
hose and discharge outlet are not blocked.
24
My cooker hood has switched off during operation.
o The safety cut-out device has been tripped.
o Turn off the hob and then wait for the safety cut-out device to
reset.
o IMPORTANT: If you have installed your cooker hood too low,
the safety cut-out device will frequently trip. Your cooker hood
may become damaged if the safety cut-out device is tripped
frequently.
IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be
operating correctly, then you should disconnect it
from your mains supply and then contact Baumatic
Customer Care on telephone number (0118) 933
6911.
