These cooker hoods are designed to extract unpleasant odours from the
kitchen; they are not intended to extract steam.
In order to operate the unit correctly and safety, please read this
instruction manual carefully before installation and use.
The cooker hood uses high quality materials, and is made with a
streamlined design. Equipped with an electric motor and centrifugal fan,
it provides strong extraction with low noise. It also features non-stick
grease filters and an easy installation.
Safety precautions

restaurants or other commercial purposes.
- The cooker hood and its filter should be cleaned regularly in order to keep

personnel only. Please contact the Caple service department.
- If the room where the 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. If other types of flue or appliances are fitted
ensure that there is an adequate supply of air to the room.
- The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
- Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be conformed to.

appliance.
- Do not flambé under the cooker hood.
- Never leave frying pans unattended during use as over-heated fats and
oils may catch fire.
- To ensure the best performance, we recommend switching on the
extractor 15 minutes before cooking and leave it running 15 minutes after.
This will ensure that the air in the kitchen is being circulated before
cooking commences and the air is being cleaned after cooking has
finished.
- The performance of your extractor will vary depending on a number of
factors. These include type of extraction, room volume, length of ducting,
ventilation available and the cleanliness of the filters.
