the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product,
check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the
hood is to be fixed.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of
the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the
ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare
the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support
bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then fix it to the ceiling using
the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that it is in line with your
hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated
in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a
connection pipe (Fig.4). Insert the upper flue into the lower
flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws
B
provided
(Fig.4), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with
the screws
B
(Fig.3). To transform the hood from a ducting
version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal
filters and follow the installation instructions.
• Filtering version
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the para-
graph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To as-
semble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained
in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer
as accessory. The filters must be applied to the suction unit
positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning
them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.6).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
•
We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on
constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active
carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter
is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to
clogging with variable frequency according to the use of the
appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters
are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function s to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat
dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a
maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable
charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least
every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the rege -
nerable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking
and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The
prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases
the average duration of the bulbs.
• Attention: The non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.7):
To replace the halogen light bulbs B , remove the glass panel
C
using a lever action on the relevant cracks.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
Caution
: Do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.
• Use (Fig. 8)
Below are the definitions of the symbols:
Light key (A) = to switch the lights on and off. When the lights
are on, the key‘s LED also lights up.
OFF key (B) = to switch the extractor hood off
Fan speed 1 key (C) = to switch the fan on at the lowest
speed. When the fan is operated at speed 1, the LED for this
key lights up.
Fan speed 2 key (D) = to switch the fan to medium speed.
When the fan is operated at speed 2, the LED for this key
lights up.
Fan speed 3 key (E) = to switch the fan to high and intensive
speed. When the fan is operated at speed 3, the LED for key
E lights up.
To use intensive speed, fan speed 3 must be active. To do this,
press and hold key E for 2 seconds. The intensive stage stays
active for 10 minutes, then the fan goes back to the previously
set speed. When the intensive speed is active, the LED of key
E flashes. To interrupt this speed before 10 minutes have
elapsed, press key E again.
Timer key (F) = to activate the Timer function. If the appliance
is working at speed 1, 2 or 3, it is possible to activate the timer
function by pressing key F. The LED for key F will then light
up. After 15 minutes of operation at the selected fan speed,
the appliance switches the motor and lights off automatically.
• Anti-grease/active charcoal filters saturation:
- When the A key flashes with a 2 second frequency the anti-
grease filters must be washed.
- When the A key flashes with a 0.5 second frequency the
active carbon filters must be replaced or washed depending
on the type of filter.
Once the clean filter has been put back one must reset the
electronic memory by pressing the A key for approximately
5 seconds until it stops flashing.
