OPERATION
ELX
The hood is provided with five buttons. The form of the buttons can be oval or round depending
on the design, without any difference
in the operating modes.
Light Button: when in ON position the led is white (oval buttons) or blue (round buttons).
Speed Reduction Button: when functioning the led is green. The led flashes when the speed is at
the minimum level. On/Off Button: when in ON position the led is green.
The hood starts working at the same speed used before switching it off the last time. To reset
keep the ON/OFF button pressed
for a few seconds.
Speed Increase Button: when functioning the led is green and flashes when the speed is at the
maximum level.
Timer: when functioning the led is red (oval buttons) or orange (round buttons). When in ON
position the hood keeps on functioning
for some minutes and then stops automatically.
The led flashes when the metal filters have to be washed after about 40 hours of use.
Electronic Operating Mode
In this operating mode the motor speeds are automatically activated by the means of the he-
at-sensor located in a sheltered position
inside the hood body.
This kind of operating mode is suggested in case of intensive use of the cooking top only (two or
more burners at a time), otherwise
with just one burner the manual operating mode is recommended.
To start the automatic operating mode push the speed reduction and increase buttons at the
same time. The red led switches on
and the three central buttons (green leds) start flashing after approx thirty seconds
The hood starts the automatic function and the heat sensor automatically adjusts the motor
speed according to the temperature
produced by the hob.
To go back to the manual operating mode push the ON/OFF button.
The correct performance of the heat sensor depends on the distance between the exhausting
surface of the hood and the cooking top: the higher the appliance is located the more difficult it
will be for the heat sensor to detect the temperature.
It has to be considered that the sensor is located quite near the lamps, for this reason it may
happen that, due to the temperature produced by the lights, the hoods keep on functioning for a
little bit even though you have stop using the burns of the cooking
top.
All hoods with capacities exceeding 650 m3/h have the last timed speed; It lasts for 7 minutes,
after which it automatically returns to the last non-timed speed.
