Use
The hood is conceived for the suction of cooking fumes and steam and is destined only
for domestic use.
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.
Extraction version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe
connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.
CAUTION!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.
CAUTION!
If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air
outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a
diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
!
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Filtration version
The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being fed back into the
room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a system of additional
filtering based on activated charcoal.
Installation
• 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.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided
with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with
current regulations and positioned in an accessible area,
after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains
connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible
area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in
accordance with standards which assures the complete
disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to
over-current category III, in accordance with installation
instructions.
WARNING! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to
the mains supply and checking the efficient function,
always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.
The hood is provided with a special power cable ; if the
cable is damaged, request a new one from Technical
Service.
Mounting
Before beginning installation:
•
Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation
area.
•
Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these
is/are to be mounted only if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
•
Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood
(e.g. packets with screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and
keeping them.
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings.
However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with
the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the
hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
Note: The parts marked with the symbol "(*)" are optional accessories supplied only
with some models or otherwise not supplied, but available for purchase.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Clean using ONLY a cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN
WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE
ALCOHOL!
Always wear work gloves for all maintenance operations.
Grease filter
Fig. 11-28
Traps cooking grease particles.
The grease filter 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 filter may discolor slightly, but this does not
affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.
Charcoal filter (Optional)
Fig. 27
It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking.
The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending
on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four mounths (or when
the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession –
indicates this necessity).The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
Assembly
Hook the charcoal filter at the back on the metal tongue of the hood first, then on the
front with the two knobs.
Disassembly
Remove the charcoal filter by turning the knobs fixing it to the hood by 90°.
Buying charcoal filters
The Charcoal filter can be bought at Samsung Service Website and Service Center.
Please refer to the last page of manual.
Replacing lamps and/or control gear
The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10 times longer than the
traditional lamps and allow to save 90% electrical energy.
For replacement, contact the technical service.
