• 

Do  not  touch  any  part  of  the  light 
fittings  or  adjacent  areas  during  or 
straight  after  prolonged  use  as  they  get 
very hot and could cause severe burns.

 

• 

In  certain  circumstances  electrical 
appliances may be a hazard. 

• 

Do  not  check  the  status  of  the  filters 
while the chimney hood is operating. 

• 

Avoid 

leaving 

exposed 

flames 

unattended  and  always  ensure  that  the 
burners  are  covered  as  open  flames  are 
damaging  for  the  filters  and  a  fire 
hazard. 

• 

Constantly  check  food  frying  to  avoid 
overheated oil becoming a fire hazard. 

• 

There  must  be  adequate  ventilation  of 
the  room  when  the  chimney  hood  is 
used  at  the  same  time  as  appliances 
burning gas or other fuels. 

• 

There  is  a  risk  of  fire  if  cleaning  is  not 
carried  out  in  accordance  with  the 
instructions. 

• 

The  chimney  hood  uses  a  220-
230V

~

 

/50Hz power supply. 

• 

If  the  mains  power  cord  is  damaged,  it 
must  be  replaced  by  a  qualified 
electrician.  

• 

The  power  cord  is  located  in  the 
chimney  area.  Should  you  require  an 
installation with no visible wiring, a 15 
amp  earthed  plug  socket  should  be 
accessible    either  in  the  ceiling  above 
the extractor hood or on the wall behind 
the 

chimney 

area. 

(A 

qualified 

electrician should provide this facility).

 

• 

The  chimney  hood  must  be  earthed. 
The  manufacturer  and    the  seller  do 
not  accept  responsibility  for  any 
damage  due  to  incorrect  electrical 
connection. 

• 

This  chimney  hood  may  not  be  used 
with a battery inverter power supply. 

Safety advice 

Before use

 

• 

This  chimney  hood  complies  with  all 
relevant safety regulations. 

• 

Never  operate  the  chimney  hood 
without a grease filter. 

• 

Never  leave  cooking  fat  or  oil 
unattended.  Overheated  fat  or  oil  can 
easily catch fire.   

• 

Do  not  flambé  food  directly  under  the 
chimney hood. The flames pose the risk 
of  the  grease  filter  catching  fire.  (see 
page 10 Maintenance and cleaning). 

• 

Restrictions  apply  to  the  use  of  the 
chimney  hood  over  a  solid  fuel  or  gas 
stove. (See Preparing for installation on 
page 5). 

• 

Switch off the power at the mains in the 
event  of  a  fault  or  when  cleaning  the 
chimney hood. 

Before  using  your  new  chimney  hood  for 
the  first  time,  please  read  this  manual 
carefully. 

It 

contains 

important 

information  concerning  your  personal 
safety as well as on the use and care of the 
chimney hood. 

• 

Remove  all  packaging  (except  the 
protective  film  on  the  two  chimney 
sections)  and  dispose  of  it  in  an 
environmentally friendly manner.  

• 

 If the chimney hood is damaged in any 
way, do not use it. Report the damage to 
your dealer, who will take the necessary 
corrective  action.  (Refer  to  Owner’s 
responsibility  on  page  11  of  this 
manual).  

Description

 

• 

The  chimney  hood  fan  extracts  the 
kitchen  vapours  and  passes  them 
through the grease filter. 

• 

The  grease  filter  absorbs  the  solid 
particles  in  the  cooking  vapours, 
keeping  the  kitchen  almost  free  of 
grease.
