Setting the air extractor mode of operation of
the hood
In the extractor mode air is discharged to the out -
side by a special conduit. In that setting any carbon
filters shall be removed. The hood should be con -
nected 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).
In some universal hoods you need to switch lever
inside the hood (Fig. 8) to switch between the
extraction and air recirculation modes. The cle -
aned air is returned to the room through the holes
in the top of the unit.
Furniture and telescopic cooker hoods operating
in air recirculation mode require installation of the
exhaust duct. The other end of the duct should be
directed to the room as it will discharge filtered air.
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.
