GUIDELINES CONCERNING THE SAFETY OF USE
i
lThe manufacturer will
accept no responsibility
for any damage due to
installation or operation
not conforming to these
instructionsi
lCooker hood is desi-
gned to remove cooking
odours. Do not use co-
oker hood for other pur-
poses.
lConnect the cooker
hood operating in
extraction mode to a
suitable ventilation duct
(do NOT connect the
cooker to smoke or ue
gas ducts, which are in
use). It requires installa-
tion of the air extraction
duct to the outside. The
duct length (typically
120 or 150mm in diame-
ter) should not exceed
4-5 m. The air exhaust
duct is also required for
telescopic and under
furniture cooker hoods
operating in air recircu-
lation mode.
lCooker hood operating
in air recirculation mode
requires the installation
of an activated charcoal
lter. In this case, instal-
ling an extractor duct is
not required, however it
is recommended to in-
stall an air guide vane.
(chimney cooker hoods
only).
i
lThe cooker hood featu-
res independent lighting
and exhaust fan that
can be operated at one
of several speeds.
lDepending on the type,
the hood is designed to
be permanently atta-
ched to a vertical wall
over a gas or electric
stove (chimney and
universal hoods); on
the ceiling over a gas
or electric stove (island
hoods); on the vertical
built in furniture over
a gas or electric stove
(telescopic and built-in
hoods). Before instal-
ling, make sure that the
wall/ceiling structure is
strong enough to su-
spend the hood. Some
hoods are very heavy.

lFor details of the instal-
lation distance above an
electric hob please re-
fer to product technical
sheet If the installation
instructions of the gas
cooker specify a greater
distance, this must be
taken into account (Fig.
1a/b/c).
lDo not leave an open
ame under the hood.
When the pots are re-
moved from the burner,
set the minimum a-
me. Always make sure
that the ame does
not extend outside the
pot, because it causes
unwanted loss of ener-
gy and a dangerous
concentration of heat.
lAny food cooked in
fat shall be constantly
monitored, since over-
heated fat can ignite
very easily.
lPull the plug of the
power cord from a wall
socket before any lter
cleaning or repair op-
eration.
l The textile grease l-
ter should be replaced,
and the aluminium lter
should be cleaned at
least every one month
in connection with the
existing re danger
(saturated fat is very
ammable).
lIf any other non-electric
devices are used in the
same room as the hood
(e.g. liquid fuel ovens,
ow-through or volu-
metric water heaters), it
is necessary to provide
appropriate ventilation
(air supply). Safe op-
eration is possible when
during simultaneous op-
eration of the hood and
combustion devices de-
pendent on air supply
the negative pressure
of not more than 0.004
milibar is maintained
at the location of these
devices inside the room
(this point does not ap-
ply when the hood is
used as an odour ab-
sorber).
lDo not abut against the
hood
