Safety warnings
For the user
 The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the
kitchen, it will not extract steam.
 Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from
damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired
cookers it is essential to avoid open flames.
 Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/cooker
under careful control.
 The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating.
 The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty.
 It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire.
Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood.
Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before
carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the
light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off
the automatic circuit breaker).
It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause
grease deposits to build up, resulting in a fire hazard.
 The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision.
 Older children must be supervised if using the appliance.
 Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
 WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before
replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2002/96/

By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent
potential negative consequences for the environment and human health,
which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of
this product.
The symbol on the product, or on the documents accompanying
the product, indicates that this appliance may not be treated as
household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable
collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment.

For the insta er
 When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
125mm diameter hose.
DU 3150/3160/4561/4361/4161: Should there already be a pipe of
diameter 100 that ducts to the outside through the walls, it is
possible to use the 125-100 mm reduction flange provided.
In this case the hood will be slightly noisier.
When installing the hood, make sure you observe the follow-
ing minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/
ring surfaces:
electric cookers 500 mm
gas cookers 700 mm
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance, this must be adhered to.
 The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum
depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms.
 The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion
gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected
to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are
installed.
 The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down
by the relevant local authorities.
 When the unit is used in extraction mode, a sufficiently large
ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approxi-
mately the same as the outlet hole.
 National and regional building regulations impose a number of
restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to
a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the
same room.
 Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a
chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is
ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approximately
500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being
created during operation of the hood.
 If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or
building inspectors office.
 Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is outlet hole of
the same size as the ventilation hole, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which
is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor
hood.
 If the hood is used in its recirculation mode, it will operate simply and
safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the

64
aforementioned measures.
 When the hood is used in its extraction mode, the following rules
must be followed to obtain optimal operation:
- short and straight outlet hose
- keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum
- never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must always
follow a gentle curve.
- keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same diameter
as the outlet hole).
- the length should be no more than:
3 metres with one 90° bend
2 metres with two 90° bends
Bends of more than 90° will reduce the efficiency of the hood and
reduce the airflow.
 Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.

Description of the Appliance
The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from
the kitchen, it will not extract steam.
 The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with a
recirculation mode by fitting a charcoal filter.
 In some models the charcoal filter is supplied. The hood, therefore,
can be used immediately in the recirculation mode. We advise
removing the charcoal filter to use the hood in the extraction mode.
Extraction mode
 In this mode fumes are extracted to the
outside via a hose connected to the
coupling ring C. Fig. 1.
 In order to obtain the best performance the
hose should have a diameter equal to the
outlet hole.
Should there already be a pipe of diameter
100 that ducts to the outside through the
walls, it is possible to use the 125-100 mm
reduction flange provided.
In this case the hood will be slightly noisier.
Recircu ation mode
 The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the
kitchen.
 Move the lever to position F - Fig. 2.
 You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation mode.
(See Special Accessories).

Control Panel - DU 3150/3160/4161
 Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions
and a high speed when odours are more concentrated.
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking.
The hood should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until
all the odours have disappeared.
The control switches are located on the hoods front panel:
the light switch switches the hood lamp on and off
the motor switch switches the motor on and off, enabling you to
select one of the three different speeds.

Grease and charcoa fi ter maintenance
indicator - DU 4561
This hood is fitted with a device that indicates when it is necessary to
clean the grease filter or the charcoal filter (if the hood is used in the
recirculation version with a charcoal filter).
On delivery, the hood is not supplied with a charcoal filter, so the
saturation indicator will be disabled.
If the hood is to be used with a charcoal filter, the saturation
indicator light must be enabled as follows:
Set the hood in OFF.
Pressing keys B and D simultaneously for three seconds, LED F lights
up and begins to flash the 1st speed led. After 1 second the 2nd speed
led also flashes and the system emits a sound signal (-Beep-) to
indicate setting taking place.
To remove the charcoal filter signal press push buttons B and D
simultaneously for 3 seconds. LED F lights up and begins to flash the
1st speed led (grease filter) and the 2nd speed led. After 1 second, only
the 1st speed led continues to flash. The system emits a sound signal
(-Beep-) to indicate setting taking place.
Grease filter LED
The 1st speed led (+ led F) flashes, when it is time to clean the grease
filter.
Always comply with the maintenance instructions for the grease filter.
Charcoal filter LED
The 2nd speed led (+ led F) flashes, when the charcoal filter needs to
be cleaned or replaced.
Resetting the saturation indicator
After cleaning or replacing the filters, press button 1 for 3 seconds until
the 1st speed led or the second speed led stops flashing.
The F LED also turns off..
