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:
700mm
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 & must
hang 50mm or more
away from the side of the
hob surfaces.
oThe edges of the cooker
hood are sharp – be
mindful of this as you

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.

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS:
Your Baumatic Cooker Hood also has
advanced features. These are:
a) Reminder to clean the
Metal Grease Filters
After every 30 hours of use, your
cooker hood’s microprocessor will alert
you to clean the metal grease filters. It
does this by showing a flashing ‘A’
on the display for 5 seconds.
Please ensure that you clean the
filters. Failing to do this could lead to a
damaged cooker hood and / or a fire
hazard.
To cancel the warning message
after cleaning the filters, switch off the
hood, press and hold the MINUS key
(Key No.2 shown on previous page) for
more than 5 seconds. ‘A’ will appear on
the display. After 5 seconds, this
disappears and the microprocessor will
start a new 30 hour (hours-of-use)
countdown until showing the next alert.
b) Your Baumatic Cooker
Hood features an ALERT FUNCTION to
tell you that the CARBON FILTERS need
replacing (if fitted).
If your Hood has carbon filters fitted,
these will purify exhaust fumes. In
time, they will need to be replaced.
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU WILL NEED TO
PRIME YOUR COOKER HOOD TO
ENABLE THIS ALERT TO FUNCTION. To
do this:
1) Press and hold the ‘ ’ for
more than 5 seconds.
2) If ‘-’ shows on the display, it
means that your cooker hood
is in the process of detecting
its carbon filters.
3) After 5 seconds, this will
change so that ‘C’ is shown on
the display – meaning that
your cooker hood is using
carbon filters. If it has none
fitted, the ‘-’ will not change.
4) From now on, after every 120
hours of use, your cooker
hood’s microprocessor will
show a flashing ‘C’ on the
display to indicate that it’s
time to change the carbon
filters.
NOTE- you should replace the carbon
filters as prompted to ensure that your
cooker hood’s recirculation system is
working at its best and that hygiene is
maximised.
5) To cancel this alert (IE., when
you want it to reset after you
have changed the carbon
filters, switch off your cooker
hood, press and hold the ‘ ’
key for 5 or more seconds.
The letter ‘C’ will show on the
display for 5 seconds. The
microprocessor will then start
a fresh 120 hours-of-usage
countdown before it will show
the alert again.
PLEASE REMEMBER
THAT YOUR BAUMATIC
COOKER HOOD CAN BE
USED EITHER IN

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 filter 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 anti-grease grilles which
help absorb vapour-suspended grease particles to
protect your kitchen & furniture from greasy
residues.
ÂThe metal grilles may become inflammable if they
become saturated with greasy residue.
9To prevent this fire hazard, the grilles should be
cleaned regularly (depending on use) every 10-15
days and at least once a month in a dishwasher or in
hot water with normal washing-up detergent.

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.
To clean the grease filter grilles in your dishwasher:
9Place the grease filter grilles in the dishwasher. Select the most
powerful washing programme and highest temperature.
9Repeat the process, if necessary.
9Refit the grease grilles when dry.
9PLEASE NOTE: DISCOLOURATION OF THE GREASE
FILTER CAN TAKE PLACE WHEN CLEANED IN A
DISHWASHER, ETC. Do not worry about the slight
discolouration of the grille – its performance won’t
be affected.
Let the filter grilles dry thoroughly before refitting
them.
Maintenance - Cleaning the Anti-grease Filters
