Using the hood
The hoods JDU 2320 and JDU 2321 are
supplied with a three speed motor.
To get best efficiency, we suggest to use
slow speeds in normal conditions and the
highest in particular cases of strong smell
and vapour concentration.
It is advisable to switch on the extractor hood
a few minutes before starting cooking and
then to leave it running for approximately 15
minutes afterwards to ensure that all odours
are extracted.
Maintenance
Before performing any maintenance
operation, disconnect the hood from the
electricity.
Grease filter
The hood has a metal grease filter.
To clean the filter, proceed as follows:
— Open the grill using the bolts L.
— Remove the grill completely (pull the right
side of the grill forward and unhook it from
the slots to which it is attached.
— With normal use, the grease filter should
be washed once a month in a dishwasher
or in warm soapy water and should be left
to dry before being refitted.
— When the filters are washed, the grid
should also be cleaned with warm water
and biodegradable detergent.
Only for hood model JDU 2321
A thin synthetic filter may be used as an
alternative to the metal filter.
This filter should be replaced when the
colouring of the upper part shows on the
bottom part.
Suggestions for the installation and
use of the hood
— The horizontal sections of the pipe must
be slanted slightly upwards (about 10%)
to ensure an easy flow of the air outwards.
— The best performance of the unit is
obtained in the external exhaust model
(suction), therefore in the limits of the
possibilities it is advised to use the external
exhaust (suction) type.
— The best performances are obtained with
short pipes (max. 4 m) and with few
curves.
Electric connection
Before completing any connection, make
sure the house voltage corresponds with the
voltage indicated on the label affixed inside
the hood.
The hood is supplied with a standard plug;
connect it to a correspondingly standard
socket. In the case is intended to connect the
appliance permanently to the mains after
having removed the plug supplied, must be
