GENERAL INFORMATION - SAFETY WARNINGS
1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
This canopy hood is designed to be fitted into cabinets or chimney cooker hoods, placed above
a hotplate. It can be used either in the extraction mode (ducted to the outside) or in the recircu-
lation mode (internal recycling).
Before starting the installation, consideration should be given to the difficulties to be
found during installation. The installation work must be undertaken by a qualified and
competent person in conformity to the rules concerning the evacuation of contaminated
air.
The manufacturer disclaims all liability for any damage or injury caused as a result of
not following the instructions for installation contained in the following text.
2 - SAFETY WARNINGS
2.1 - When used in the extraction mode, the cooker hood ducting must not be connected to a flue
which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances supplied with energy other than electric,
such as a central heating flue or water heating flue.
2.2 - Before connecting to the mains supply ensure that the mains voltage corresponds with the volt-
age on the rating plate inside the hood.
2.3 - Connect the cooker hood to the mains via a bipolar switch which has 3mm clearance between
the contacts.
2.4 - The appliance must be earthed.
2.5 - When installed, the hood must be positioned at least 65 cm above the hotplate.
2.6 - Never do flambé cooking under this cooker hood.
2.7 - Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated fat and oil may catch fire.
2.8 - Before carrying out any kind of maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from the mains
supply.
2.9 - If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance such as a cen-
tral heating boiler then this must be of the room sealed or balanced flue type. If other types of
flue or appliance are fitted, ensure that there is an adequate supply of air into the room. When
the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric,
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.
2.10- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
2.11- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
