Intended Use - FALMEC Down draft 90 Mode D'emploi

It is imperative that this instructions booklet is
kept together with the equipment for any future
consultation.
If the equipment is sold or transferred to another per-
son, make sure that the booklet is also supplied so
that the new user can be made aware of the hood's
operation and relative warnings.
After the stainless steel hood has been installed, it
will need to be cleaned to remove any residues re-
maining from the protective coating as well as any
grease and oil stains which, if not removed, can cause
irreversible damage to the hood surface. To properly
clean the unit, the manufacturer recommends using
the supplied moist wipes, which are also available
sold separately.
Insist on original spare parts.

INTENDED USE

The equipment is solely intended to be used to
extract fumes generated from cooking food in
non-professional domestic kitchens: any other
use is improper. Improper use can cause damage
to persons, things, pets and exempts the Manu-
facturer from any liability.
The equipment can be used by children over the age
of 8 and by persons with reduced physical, sensory
and mental abilities, or with no experience or knowl-
edge, as long as they do so under supervision or after
having received relative instructions regarding safe
use of the equipment and understanding of the dan-
gers connected to it.
Children are not to play with the equipment. Clean-
ing and maintenance by the user must not be carried
out by children without supervision.
USE AND CLEANING WARNINGS
Before cleaning or carrying out mainte-
nance operations, disconnect the equip-
ment by removing the plug or switching
off the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor
fan) are off when the equipment is not being used.
The maximum overall weight of any objects placed
or hung (if applicable) on the hood must not exceed
3lb 5oz (1.5 Kg).
Always supervise the cooking process during the use
of deep-fryers: Overheated oil can catch fire.
Do not leave open, unattended flames under the
hood.
Do not prepare food over an open flame under the
hood.
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease
filters: in this case, grease and dirt will deposit in the
equipment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot when used at
the same time as the cooking appliances.
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts
of the hood are still hot.
There can be a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out
according to the instructions and products indicated
in this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is
not used for long periods of time.
If other appliances that use gas or other fu-
els are being used at the same time (boiler,
stove, fireplaces, etc.), make sure the room
where the fumes are discharged is well-ventilat-
ed, in compliance with the local regulations.
