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

68
For the insta er
 When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
150mm diameter hose (For DK 9060 9090 only: Ø 120mm).
Should there already be a pipe of diameter 125 or 120 mm that ducts
to the outside through the walls, it is possible to use the 150/125-
120 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 650 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
aforementioned measures.

69
 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.
 For DK 9060 9090 only: The hood is supplied as an extractor unit.
Please disconsider the instructions related to the recycling version,
to the installation, use and maintenance of the charcoal filter and of
the deflector.
The hood is not supplied with an internal motor
and must be connected with an exetrnal
aspirating motor unit.
Extraction mode
 In this mode fumes are extracted to
the outside via a hose connected to
the coupling ring A. Fig. 1.
 In order to obtain the best performan-
ce the hose should have a diameter
equal to the outlet hole.
 Should there already be a pipe of
diameter 125 or 120 mm that ducts to
the outside through the walls, it is
possible to use the 150/125-120 mm Fig. 1

70
Fig. 1a
reduction flange provided. In this case the
hood will be slightly noisier.
 For DK 9060 9090 only: The valve located
inside the discharge hole of the range
hood A allows, anyhow, a minimum air
exhaustion even when the electric valve
switch is in OFF ( O ) position. This is a
useful function, since it grants a
continuous air exchange inside the
kitchen.
It is possible to use this function adjusting
the valve opening properly.
For this purpose it is necessary to change
the position of the screws which lock the adjustable closings
positioned on the valve surface. Fig 1a.
Recircu ation mode
 The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the
kitchen.
 You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation mode.
(See Special Accessories).
 Fix the deflector using 2 screws Ø 2,9x13 mm. Fig. 2.
 Optionally, the position of the chimney elements can be changed.
When using the hood in the recirculation mode the chimney must be
fixed at the top, with the air outlet grill at the side.
Fig. 2

71
Control Panel
 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:
DK 9090 D - 9060 D
the light switch switches the hood lamp on and off
 the Electr. valve switch serves to open (and close) the electrical

77
Maintenance and Care
The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity
supply before beginning any maintenance work.
C eaning the hood
 Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a solution of
water and mild washing up liquid.
 Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products or
products containing bleach. .
 Never insert pointed objects in the motors protective grid.
 Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth
and mild washing up liquid.
 It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease
deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard.
Metal grease filter
 The purpose of the grease filters is to absorb grease particles which
form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the
external extraction or internal re-circulation function.
Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed,
either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.
Removing the meta grease fi ter
 First, push the metal grease filter stop backwards, then extract the
filter, pulling downwards. Fig. 3.
Hand washing
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-
loosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly
with hot water. Repeat the process if
necessary. Refit the grease filters when
they are dry.
Dishwasher
Place grease filters in the
dishwasher. Select most
powerful washing
programme and highest
temperature, at least 65°C.
Repeat the process. Refit
the grease filters when they
are dry.
When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight
discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact
on its performance.
 Clean the inner housing using a hand hot solution only(never use
caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).
Fig. 3

78
Charcoa fi ter
 The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in
recirculation mode.
 To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (Available from your
local Service Force Centre).
Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LON LIFE charcoal filter can be
cleaned and reactivated. With normal use the filter should be cleaned
every second month (when using the hood 2,5 hours per day,on
avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use
normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash
the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and
later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should
be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of
100º C.
After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be
replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.
Fitting Fig. 4
Put the charcoal filter frame in place and fix it with 5 screws.
Fit the charcoal filter first from the rear side and fix it frontwards
using the two red keys A.
To remove proceed in the reverse order.
 Always specify the hood model code number and serial number
when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the
rating plate located on the inside of the unit.
 The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local Service Force
Centre.
