Warning! Power cable replacement must
be undertaken by the authorised service
assistance centre or similar qualifi ed
person.The minimum distance between
the supporting surface for the cooking
equipment on the hob and the lowest part
of the range hood must be not less than
50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from
gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance, this must be adhered to.
4. MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION! Before performing any
maintenance operation, isolate the hood
from the electrical supply by switching off at
the connector and removing the connector
fuse. Or if the appliance has been
connected through a plug and socket, then
the plug must be removed from the socket.
The cooker hood should be cleaned
regularly (at least with the same frequency
with which you carry out maintenance of the
fat fi lters) internally and externally. Clean
using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid
detergent. Do not use abrasive products.
DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
Warning! Failure to carry out the basic
cleaning recommendations of the cooker
hood and replacement of the fi lters may
cause fi re risks. Therefore, we recommend
observing these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility
for any damage to the motor or any
fi re damage linked to inappropriate
maintenance or failure to observe the above
safety recommendations.
4.1 Grease fi lter - The grease fi lter must
be cleaned once a month using non
aggressive detergents, either by hand or
in the dishwasher, which must be set to a
low temperature and a short cycle. When
washed in a dishwasher, the grease fi lter
may discolour slightly, but this does not
affect its fi ltering capacity.
4.2 NON-washable activated charcoal
fi lter - The saturation of the charcoal fi lter
occurs after more or less prolonged use,
depending on the type of cooking and the
regularity of cleaning of the grease fi lter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the
cartridge at least every four mounths.
The charcoal fi lter may NOT be washed or
regenerated.
5. CONTROLS
The hood is fi tted with a control panel with
aspiration speed selection control and a
light switch to control cooking area lights.
Use the high suction speed in cases
of concentrated kitchen vapours. It is
recommended that the cooker hood suction
is switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking
and to leave in operation during cooking
and for another 15 minutes approximately
after terminating cooking.
The control switches are located on the
unit's front panel:
