Hood Operation

• Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions

and a high speed when odours are more concentrated.
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking, you will
then get an under pressure in the kitchen. The hood should be left
on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all the odours have
disappeared.
The control switches are located on the unit’s front panel:

- Main switch, hood off.
- Start and choice of motor speed 1-2-3-1-2.........
- Indicates speed 1 (LED).
- Indicates speed 2  and saturation of the grease filter (LED)
- Indicates speed 3 and saturation of the charcoal filter (LED)

(flashing LED)

- Indicates Intensive speed (LED).
- Intensive speed on/off. The Intensive speed runs for 5 minutes:

If the hood is on when the Intensive speed is activated, the hood
reverts to previous speed after 5 minutes.
If the hood is off when the Intensive speed is activated, the hood
will be turned off after 5 minutes.
To interrupt the Intensive speed, press button A or B.

- Light OFF
I

- Light ON

Should the hood or the controls fail to operate: disconnect the power
supply for at least 5 seconds, then turn the hood back on again.

Correct ventilation

If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must be an under
pressure in the kitchen. It is important to keep the kitchen windows
closed and have a window in an adjacent room open.

Important

This is not applicable for recirculation. Great care must be taken if
the hood is used at the same time as a burner or fireplace (e.g. gas,
diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc.), as the hood will
expel air which is required by these other appliances. In this situa-
tion, ensure that a window is open. The negative pressure in the
room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn
back into the room by the cooker hood.
