carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.
o The hood must be installed in
accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements
followed.
oIf the cooker hood is installed
for use above a gas appliance then
the provision for ventilation must
be in accordance with the Gas
Safety Codes of Practice BS.6172,
BS.5440 & BS.6891 (Natural Gas)
and BS.5482 (LP Gas) 1994, the
Gas Safety (Installation & Use)
Regulations, the Building

the Building Standards (Scotland)
(Consolidated) Regulations issued
by the Scottish Development
Dptmt.
oIt is dangerous to alter the
specifications or to modify this
product in any way. Do not tamper
with it or attempt to alter it in the
attempt to customise it further.
oWhen installing the hood,
ensure that the following
recommended distances are
observed between the highest
point on the hob top (including the
burners) and the bottom of the
cooker hood:
9Electric cookers:
700 mm
9Gas cookers:
700 mm
9Coal/ oil cookers:
800 mm
* NOTE - DO NOT SET YOUR
COOKER HOOD LESS THAN
700mm ABOVE YOUR COOKER!
oWhen installed between
adjoining wall cabinets,
the cabinets must not
overhang the hob.
oThe edges of the cooker

mindful of this as you
handle your appliance,
especially during
installation and cleaning.
DO NOT CLEAN IN
BEHIND THE GREASE

oIf the room where the
cooker hood is to be used
contains a fuel burning
appliance such as a
central heating boiler
then its flue must be of
the sealed or balanced
flue type.
oIf other types of flue or
appliances are fitted,
ensure that there is an
adequate supply of air in
the room.
oWhen the hood is being
used in its extractor
function, ensure that the
ducting is fire retardant
and that there are no
bends sharper than 90
odegrees as this will
reduce the efficiency of
the hood.

To use your cooker hood:
1) Make sure it has been properly installed.
2) Find the CONTROL PANEL. It is located on the hood’s front
surface near the bottom of the unit.
3) The CONTROL PANEL contains two rows of switches. These perform
separate functions. You will need to understand what both switches do
before you attempt to use your cooker hood.
* Note: The hood should be switched on at least as soon as you start
cooking. It is a good idea to have had it running for 5 minutes prior
to cooking and at least 15 minutes after you have finished cooking.
One row of sliding switches is
for the cooker hood’s
operation
MOTOR ON /OFF switch – the ‘ ’ switch (figure above) turns the motor
on and off and adjusts its speed. There are three speeds, pushing the switch to
the right increases the speeds. The leftmost setting is ‘OFF’.This hood has a microswitch
that lets the operator turn the appliance on and off by simply opening and closing the
front door, this will only work if the switches are left in the on position.
The other is to control the light.
LIGHT ON/OFF switch - Pressing the ‘ ’ switch (LOWER figure above) turns
your cooker hood’s light on (push left) and off (push right).
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR BAUMATIC COOKER HOOD CAN BE
USED EITHER IN RECIRCULATION MODE OR IN EXTRACTION
MODE. TO USE IN RE-CIRCULATION MODE, YOU WILL NEED TO
FIT THE CARBON FILTER(s).

________________________________________________
Anti-Grease Grille
ÂYour cooker hood includes an anti-grease grille
which helps absorb vapour-suspended grease
particles to protect your kitchen & furniture from
greasy residues.
ÂThe metal grille may become inflammable if it
becomes saturated with greasy residue.
9To prevent this fire hazard, the grille should be
cleaned regularly (depending on use) every 10-15
days and at least every three months in a dishwasher
or in hot water with normal washing-up detergent.
