FALMEC Polar FDPLR15W5SS Mode D'emploi page 15

In case of:
• devices fitted with cables without a plug: the type of plug to use is
a ''standardised'' one. The wires must be connected as follows: yel-
low-green for earthing, blue for neutral and brown for the phase. The
plug must be connected to an adequate safety socket.
• fixed equipment not provided with a power supply cable and plug,
or any other device that ensures disconnection from the electrical
mains, with an opening gap of the contacts that enables total dis-
connection in overvoltage category III conditions.
Said disconnection devices must be provided in the mains power
supply in compliance with installation regulations.
The yellow/green earth cable must not be cut off by the switch.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with
the safety regulations.
FUMES DISCHARGE
EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION)
In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged
outside through the exhaust pipe.
To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected
via a pipe, to an external output.
The outlet pipe must have:
• a diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.
• a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent
condensation from flowing back into the motor.
• the minimum required number of bends.
• the minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the
suction performance of the hood.
You are required to insulate the pipes if it passes through cold envi-
ronments.
In the presence of motors with 500 CFM or higher, a check valve is
present to prevent external air flowing back.
HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING)
In this model, the air passes through the charcoal filters
to be purified and recycled in the environment.
Ensure that the active carbon filters are assembled into
the hood, if not, install them as indicated in the assem-
bly instructions.
In this version the check valve must not be assembled: remove
it if it is on the air outlet fitting of the motor.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
only intended for qualified personnel
The hood can be installed in various configurations.
The generic assembly steps apply to all installations; for
each case, follow the specific steps provided for the re-
quired installation.
OPERATION
WHEN TO TURN ON THE HOOD?
Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook to direct
fumes and vapours towards the suction surface.
After cooking, leave the hood operating until complete extraction of all
vapours and odours. By means of the Timer function, it is possible to set
auto switch-off function which will allow the hood to turn off automat-
ically after 15 minutes of operation.
WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?
1st speed: maintains the circulation of clean air with low electricity
consumption.
2nd speed: normal conditions of use.
3rd speed: presence of strong odours and vapours.
4th speed: rapid disposal of odours and vapours.
WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?
The metal filters must be cleaned every 30 hours of operation.
The active carbon filters must be replaced every 3-4 months, depend-
ing on the use of the hood.
For further details see the "MAINTENANCE" chap.

Motor ON/OFF
Upon start-up, the speed is that stored at the previous op-
eration.
Increase speed from 1 to 4
Speed 4 is only active for a
few minutes, then speed 3
activates.
Reduce speed from 4 to 1
Light on/off
TIMER (red LED flashing)
Auto switch-off after 15 min.
The function deactivates (red LED off ) if:
- The TIMER key ( ) is pressed again.
- The ON/OFF key ( ) is pressed.
FILTER ALARM (red LED steady on with ( ) off)
Anti-grease filter maintenance after approximately 30 hours
of operation.
Press ( ) the meter for 3 seconds to reset.
If the pushbutton panel is completely inactive, before contacting the
Technical assistance service, disconnect power temporarily to the ap-
pliance (about 5"), possibly by acting on the main switch, to restore
normal operation.
If this measure has no effect, contact the Technical assistance service.
