YOUR APPLIANCE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant
odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
To obtain the best performance it is advisable to switch
on the hood a few minutes before you start cooking and
leave it running for approximately 15 minutes after
finishing.
Cooker Hood Controls
V1. Push to engage the low speed, for use with one
burner or simmering.
V2. Push to engage the medium speed, for normal
cooking up to four pans.
V3. Push to engage the high speed, for use when
frying or cooking foods with strong odours.
L.
Push to switch on the worktop illumination lamps.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This cooker hood can be used to recirculate or extract
contaminated air.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the
recirculation mode with the charcoal filter fitted.
The contaminated air is cleaned by passing through the
filters and then back into the kitchen.
The activated charcoal filter absorbs odours arising from
cooking. In use it will slowly become saturated in grease
and less effective. The filter normally requires changing
after at least every three months or more frequently if
the hood is used for more than three hours per day.
Extraction
The contamined air enters the cooker hood passing
through the grease filter and out through the ducting into
the atmosphere.
When used in the extraction mode the charcoal filter is
not required and must be removed.
Never do flambé cooking under this
cooker hood.
Take extra care when frying and never
leave frying pans unattended during
use, as over-heated fats and oils can
catch fire.
R
W
Do not leave naked flames under the
cooker hood.
Ensure the hood is switched on
before using the hob.
Ensure heating areas on your hob are
covered with pots and pans when using
the hob and cooker hood
W
R
simultaneously.
Ensure not to damage the charcoal filter
when cleaning or replacing as the activated
charcoal inside is saturated with grease,
which will stain if it comes into contact
with clothing or furnishings.
5
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Before carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the
mains supply.
The cooker hood must be kept clean, a build
up of grease or fat can be a fire hazard.
External Cleaning
The metal casing, grille and chimney should be cleaned
at least once a month to keep it looking like new. Wipe
over the hood with a soft cloth wrung out in mild
soapy water and than dry thoroughly.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners as they
may scratch or damage the surfaces.
Always wear protective gloves when cleaning
the hood.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of water when
cleaning particularly around the control panel.
Metal Grease Filter
The metal grease filter should be cleaned at least every
month. The filter may be washed by hand using mild
soapy water, or can be machine washed in a
dishwasher.
To Remove the Grease Filter
Remove the metal grease filter cassette by pushing
inwardly on the two steel handles; replace, making sure
the handle has sprung back into position and is
completely visible.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned, it should be
replaced approximately every three months or more often
if the hood is used for more than three hours per day.
6
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
To Remove the Charcoal Filter
Push inwardly on the two retaining clips to disengage
the security fixing and remove.
This appliance can be a fire hazard if the
grease and charcoal filters are not
cleaned and replaced as recommended.
S07_3
Worktop Lighting
The lamps should be replaced with a 220-240V 20W
halogen spot lamp.

Drilling the shelves
a)
Using the template provided, and taking hole B
as a point of reference, drill the shelves along the
central axis to allow the passage of the chimney.
The chimney must be inserted into the shelves
before it is fixed to the hood canopy (Fig. 13).
When installing the ducting version with the air
outlet directed upwards, if the ducting fan unit is
positioned below the line of the shelves it will be
necessary to drill a suitable hole in the top shelf
only, to allow the air ducting pipe to pass through
(Fig. 14).
b)
Direction and position of the ducting fan
unit
a)
The hood is normally supplied with the air outlet
directed towards the wall (Fig. 3), if it is to be
installed with the air outlet directed to the right or
left (Fig. 4a-4b), it will be necessary to change
the direction of the ducting fan unit.
