Specifications of your BT10.1GL Cooker Hood

o Any installation work must be
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
Regulations issued by the
Department of the Environment,
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 being
observed between the cooker top
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 and
their undersides must be
at least 50 mm off from
the hob edges.
oThe edges of the cooker
hood are sharp – be
mindful of this as you
handle your appliance,
especially during
installation and cleaning.
DO NOT CLEAN IN
BEHIND THE GREASE
FILTERS!
oIf the room where the
cooker hood is to be used
contains a fuel burning
appliance such as a

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
degrees as this will
reduce the efficiency of
the hood.
Important Safety Information: Please Read this before installing & using.

5

IMPORTANT!: Before cleaning, always ensure that you
have switched your cooker hood OFF at the omni-polar
switch, set at the wall from the cable:
Cleaning
ÂClean the external parts with
mild liquid detergents on a
damp cloth.
ÂNever use abrasive powder,
corrosive solvents or brushes.
ÂNever insert pointed objects
into the motor’s protective grid.
ÂOnly clean the control panel
and filter grill with a damp
cloth and delicate detergents.
ÂBe sure to replace the
carbon filters at the
recommended intervals.
Build up could cause a
fire hazard.
ÂNever take out the
grease filters and
attempt to clean the
space above where they
are set.
________________________________________________
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 once a month in hot water with
normal washing-up detergent. DO NOT USE A
DISHWASHER TO ACHIEVE THIS.
Cleanin
g
y
our Baumatic Cooker Hood:

First remove the grille by pulling down on it. Undo the
side catches.
You can now clean the anti-grease filter grilles.
9Soak them for about one hour in hot water with a
grease-loosening detergent then rinse off thoroughly
with hot water.
9Repeat the process if needed. Refit the grease grille
once it has dried.
9Refit the grease grilles when dry.
Let the filter grilles dry thoroughly before refitting
them.
Maintenance - Cleaning the Anti-grease Filters

10
a) Changing the light bulb
9Before changing the light bulb, ensure that the appliance is not live (i.e., ensure
that you have switched it off so that it’s in the ‘0’ position).
9Remove the metal anti-grease filters (see Figure 2 below) and find the old bulb
located in the light fixture up inside the exposed canopy. Change the halogen bulb using
only halogen spares with an E14 coupling, max. 50W.
* PLEASE NOTE - Defective bulbs should be replaced immediately.

______________________________________________________________________________________
Installing / Changing the Carbon Filter.
Your Baumatic Cooker Hood uses CARBON FILTERS to
purify the air for the air recirculation function.
You will find two filters that will attach to both sides of
the fan motor (please see figures at bottom of page).
The active carbon filters must be replaced regularly, at least once
every three months, to allow normal operation.
Before starting to fit the carbon filter, turn the omni-polar switch
to zero (0).
Changing the Carbon Filters
1) Press the handle of the metal grease
filter towards the rear part of the unit
until it is released from the front
housing, and remove it by pressing
downwards (Fig. 2 - above).
2) Remove the old carbon filters by
twisting them anticlockwise until they
unlatch from the sides of the motor.
3) Place the new carbon filters (which
have two fixing tongues), turning
clockwise so that the tongues latch
onto the motor’s sides. (Fig. 3 - left).
4) Reposition the anti-grease metallic filter grilles.

EXTRACTION OPERATION – Installation Instructions
ÂEnsure that you have fitted the
union (‘N’) to the upper part of the
hood using the packaged two
screws supplied inside the packing
(Fig. 1 – on right). Using 125 mm
diameter ducting, connect the
union (N) on the upper part of the
hood (see Fig. 1 at left) to the
discharge outlet for cooking
vapours with a cross-section of at
least 150 cm².
ÂPLEASE NOTE: If there is no
discharge outlet and the hood is to
be fitted to an outside wall of the
building, make a hole in the wall
that is large enough to fit a wind
and rain-proof shutter with a cross
section of at least 150 cm² and
connect this to the outlet union of
the unit by means of a pipe.
.
AIR PURIFIER OPERATION - Installation Instructions
The cooker hood can be
converted to work as an air
purifier in the event that there is
no provision for an external air
discharge duct.
In this case, air is recycled through
the vent ‘R’ (Fig. 1 – above). When
using the unit as an air purifier, you
need to install two active carbon
filters to absorb cooking vapours
(please see page 11).
Extraction / Air Purifier Modes of O
p
eration
Please note: For the extraction function, you will
need to connect a 125 mm diameter outlet ducting to
the spigot ‘N’ in fig. 1 above. This ducting is not
provided with your cooker hood. See figure on left.

17
* Note on what to do if your Cooker Hood is the version that
comes with a BRACKET.
Please note that your cooker hood may include a lower bracket. If
this is the case, you will need to have it installed as such.
This will mean a slight change in how the cooker hood is to be
installed from the process shown on page 13.
In Fig. 6, below, you will see an exploded view of your cooker hood
and (inset), the bracketed connecting area of the hood (‘N’).
Hook or attach the hood to the bracket using the
screws supplied and carefully check that it has
been done properly. A few hoods may be
supplied with specific screws for vertical or
horizontal adjustment.
