and complies with all applicable legislation, including Gas
safety, Electrical safety (LVD) and Electromagnetic interference
compatibility (EMC).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EU DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU.
At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special
local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing
appliance recycling services.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both
energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of
household appliances separately, the product is marked with a
crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
Please note:
• Under no circumstances should the extractor be connected to any
gas ventilation system, ue system or hot air ducting system.
• Do not vent the extractor into an attic or loft space.
• Only house the extractor in rooms with adequate ventilation.
Remember that the extractor is powerful and whatever air is
extracted needs to be replaced.
• Do not tile the extractor in. It should be removable for service or
maintenance.
IMPORTANT NOTES

5
• Do not use silicone sealant to secure the hood to the wall.
• You must be able to isolate the extractor from the mains electrical
supply after installation.
• This appliance has been designed to be used in a room
with a volume of less than 36m³.
• Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
• The performance of your extractor will vary depending on a
number of factors. These include: type of extraction, length of
ducting, room volume, ventilation available and cleanliness of the
lters.
Ducting
For best performance and lowest noise output, we recommend the
use of 125mm ducting. Lesser diameter ducting may be used but
this will reduce performance and increase the noise of the extractor.
Wherever possible use the rigid circular pipe which has a smooth
interior, rather than the expanding concertina type ducting. The
lengths of the ducting without performance being a󰀨ected are as
follows:
• 4 metres with 1 x 90° bend.
• 3 metres with 2 x 90° bends.
• 2 metres with 3 x 90° bends.
Note:
We recommend that you seek the help of another individual when
installing this product.
DUCTING

6
We recommend that you wear PPE when handling this extractor.
The xings supplied are suitable for most installations. It is the
responsibility of the installer to ensure that the xings are suitable
for the ceiling type in the property.
Cover any hob, or surface below the area in which the extractor is to
be installed, so that no damage befalls it.
DUCTING

For best performance, you should switch on the extractor 15 minutes
before starting to cook and leave it to run for approximately 15 minutes
after the end of cooking.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Fig. 2
Fig. 3
Fig. 4
IMPORTANT : DO NOT PERFORM
MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING
OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT
FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY. NEVER USE
STEAM CLEANERS TO CLEAN THE
APPLIANCE.
Cleaning
You should use a non-abrasive
cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner
(including Cif) will scratch the surface
and could erase the control panel
markings.
You can clean your extractor
e󰀨ectively by simply using a dilute
solution of water and mild detergent
and drying to a shine with a clean
cloth, for example a micro-bre cloth.
Cleaning the grease lter
The grease lter should be kept clean
to minimise the risk of re.
At least once a month you should
remove and clean the grease lter

10
with hot soapy water. You can also wash the grease lter in a
dishwasher, ensuring that you place it in an upright position to
prevent damage from other items in the dishwasher.
To remove the grease lter, push in the button on the handle and
then pull down on the lter at the front as shown in gure 3. When
you have released it at the top, then you can pull the lter out
completely.
After rinsing and drying, reassemble the grease lter to the hood by
reversing the removal process.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease lter in the dishwasher may lead to
discolouration. This is normal and does not constitute a fault with
the appliance.
Changing the charcoal lter (re-circulating mode only)
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace
the charcoal lter every four to six months, depending on use.
To attach the charcoal lter:
• Remove the grease lter as described on the previous page.
• Following the grooves on the extractor motor and on the lter,
place the charcoal lter over the motor and turn it clockwise
(right). Do not over-turn the lter.
• Finally, replace the grease lters.

LED LIGHTING
The light bulbs are high e󰀩ciency 2W LEDs and are not user-
replaceable. The lighting is designed for use during cooking and not
for general room illumination. Extended use of the lights will reduce
the lifespan of the bulbs. In the event of a problem with the lighting
please contact Amica Customer Care for assistance.
Contact details are on page 14.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

14
Please note:
Your extractor is equipped with a motor protection device that will
switch o󰀨 the motor to prevent damage from overheating. This
may happen during cooking when most or all of the zones/burners
are being used simultaneously, or if your extractor is installed
incorrectly, lower than the recommended height.
This is normal, and the extractor will work again once the motor has
cooled su󰀩ciently.
If your extractor is not working:
1. Check that the mains supply has not been switched o󰀨.
2. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.
3. Check that the control panel is clean and free from grease.

TROUBLESHOOTING

15
When the extractor is to be
installed above an Amica hob,
the minimum distance between
the hob and extractor must
exceed 550mm.
If the instructions provided
with another brand of gas hob
state that the required distance
between the hob and extractor
must be greater than 550mm,
then that is the distance that
should be observed; this is a
legal requirement and may lead
to your hob being disconnected
from the gas supply and the
installation being reported under
RIDDOR.
Note: The height should be measured from the top of the burners.
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH
THE GAS HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HOB
AND EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT LEAST 760mm.
The width of any hob must not be greater than the width of the
extractor installed above it.

MOUNTING YOUR EXTRACTOR

16
The metal casing of this appliance has been coated with a
preservative to protect it during transport and storage. This
should be removed during installation by using a non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner. Always follow the instructions given
with the cleaner being used. Please ensure that there is no
power being supplied to the appliance whilst you do this.
When correctly installed, your product meets all safety
requirements laid down for this type of product. However,
special care should be taken around the rear of the appliance
as these areas are not designed nor intended to be touched
and may contain sharp or rough edges that could cause injury.
Always wear adequate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Ducting and ventilation
For best performance and lowest noise output, we recommend the
use of 125mm ducting. 100mm ducting may be used but this will
reduce performance and increase the noise of the extractor.
Note:
• We recommend that you seek the help of another individual
when installing this product.
• The xings supplied are suitable for most installations. It is
the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the xings are
suitable for the ceiling type in the property.
• Please cover any hob, or surface below the area in which the
extractor is to be installed, so that no damage befalls it.
