To Operate
Select the required fan speed and light if required.
The appliance can be installed to recirculate or
extract contaminated air. The cooker hood is more
effective when used in the extraction mode.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the
recirculation mode with the charcoal filter fitted.
In the recirculation mode the contaminated air is
passed through the charcoal filters to be purified
and recirculated into the kitchen through the
recirculation grilles in either side of the chimney
stack.
Extraction
In the extraction mode the contaminated air enters
the cooker hood passing through the grease filters
and is passed out through the ducting into the
atmosphere.
To obtain the best performance when cooking it is
advisable to switch the cooker hood on for a few
minutes before you start cooking and leave it
running for about 15 minutes after finishing.
When used in the extraction mode the
charcoal filters are not required.
Never do flambé cooking under this
cooker hood.
Never leave frying pans unattended during
use as overheated fats and oils can catch
fire.
Do not leave naked flames under the cooker
hood.
Ensure heating areas on your hob are
covered with pots and pans when using the
hob and cooker hood simultaneously.

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, as a
build up of grease or fat can be a fire
hazard.
External Cleaning
Wipe the cooker hood frequently with warm soapy
water using a mild detergent.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive
cleaners.
Never use excessive amounts of water
when cleaning particularly around the
control panel.
Metal Grease Filters
The grease filters absorb grease and dust during
cooking to help keep the cooker hood clean inside.
Cleaning
The filters must be washed once every
month, using a normal household
detergent; their compact dimension also
enables them to be washed in a
dishwasher. Allow to dry completely
before replacing.
Removing and replacing the filters
Remove the filters one at a time, press
against the metal actuator to release the
spring catch as illustrated. When
replacing, ensure that the handles face
outwards.
Charcoal Filter
In the recirculation mode the charcoal filter
absorbs smells and unwanted odours.
The charcoal filter cannot be cleaned or
regenerated, and must be replaced approximately
every 4 months, or more frequently if the hood is
subjected to heavy usage.
Replacing the charcoal filter
First remove the metal grease filters.
Remove the saturated activated charcoal
filter by releasing the fixing hooks as
illustrated.
5
Position the new charcoal filter in the
position marked and while holding the
filter replace the fixing hooks as
illustrated.
This appliance can be a possible fire
hazard if the grease and charcoal
filters are not cleaned and replaced as
recommended.
Changing the Light Bulb
Remove the screw fixing the lighting
support.
Pull the lighting support downwards.
Remove the light bulb by unscrewing it
anticlockwise.
Insert the new light bulb into the lighting
support and screw it clockwise taking
care not to overtighten the light bulb.

relevant British Standard or DIN 4102-B1.
When the cooker hood is ducted to the outside
the charcoal filter must be removed.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in
the recirculation mode, with the charcoal filter
fitted.
In the recirculation mode contaminated air is
passed through the charcoal filter to be purified
and recirculated into the kitchen through the
grille outlets on either side of the chimney.
14.1
To assemble the recirculation duct, place the
recirculation outlet connection item 15 into the
support item 7.3.
15
Insert the extension ducts item 14.1 into either
side of the recirculation outlet item 15 ensuring
the connections are vertically and horizontally
aligned with the outlets in the chimney.
ø 150
Connect the recirculation oulet item 15 to the
outlet on top of the hood body using either a
piece of Ø125mm or Ø150mm flexible or rigid
pipe.
Rigid pipe is strongly recommended and should
be used where possible as this will ensure the
best performance while lowering noise.
13
Extraction
The charcoal filter is not required in this mode
and should be removed.
Ducting
The ducting used must be Ø150mm (6ins), or
Ø125mm (5ins) in diameter.
If possible duct through the wall immediately
above the hood body.
For the best performance use the shortest
possible duct run and the minimum number of
bends.
Where flexible ducting is fitted it should not be
turned through very tight bends as this may
impair the performance of the hood.
It is recommenmded a maximum length of 3
metres, to be installed, to be reduced 1 metre for
each 90o bend installed in the ducting run.
If the distance is greater than 3 metres the
efficency of the hood could be impaired.
The diameter of the ducting spigot on the top of
the hood body item 1 is Ø150mm (6”).
When using Ø125mm (5”) ducting it will be
necessary to install the ducting adapter item 9 to
the Ø150mm (6”) outlet on the top of the hood
body and the Ø120mm to 125mm ducting collar
item 3 (supplied).
If the room where the cooker hood is to
be used contains a fuel burning appliance
such as a central heating boiler, then its
flue must be of the room sealed or
balanced flue type.
