INSTALLATION

CONNECTING TO THE POwER NETwORK AND 

OPERATION CHECK

After  connecting  the  device  to  the  power  supply 

network (in accordance with the requirements de-

fined above) it is necessary to check operation of 

the motor and lighting of the hood.

SETTING  THE  OPERATION  MODE  OF  THE 

KITCHEN EXTRACTOR HOOD
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 in-

stall 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.

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.
