develops a fault, contact Vortice* immediately.
Ensure that only genuine original Vortice spares are

• The appliance is double insulated and therefore

qualified electrician to make the necessary
modifications.

cleaning the inside and outside of the appliance;
c) if you decide not to use the appliance for any
length of time.
• WARNING: the fixtures shown in figures 9-9A are
for guidance purposes only. For installation, follow
the instructions below.
a) Check that ceiling/wall where the appliance is to
be fitted is strong enough to bear the weight of the
unit.
b) Make sure that the fixtures themselves do not
affect the structural strength of the ceiling/wall to
which the appliance is to be fitted.
c) Make sure the fixtures are properly tightened and
that they are capable of bearing the weight of the
appliance as well being suited to the type of surface
used.
• Maintenance/Cleaning: On a yearly basis, have
professionally qualified personnel check the level of
grime that has accumulated. If necessary, use a dry
cloth or a brush to clean the control components
and fan blades. Water should only be used to clean
the
Ø
80 air vents. Do not immerse the appliance in
water or other liquids.
• Be careful to avoid damaging the electronic circuit.
• Check that the air intake section, situated towards
the outside, is clear.
• The flow of air or fumes to be carried outside must
be clean (that is free of grease, soot, chemical and
corrosive agents, and explosive or flammable
mixtures).
• The appliance must not be used to activate water
heaters, room heaters, etc. and it must not
discharge into the hot air ducts of such appliances.
• Keep the appliance’s intake and outlet grilles free to
ensure an optimum flow of air.
