If the fixed appliance is endowed with a supply
cord and a plug, the appliance has to be put in a
place where the plug can be reached easily.
* The use of materials which can burst into
flames should be avoided in close proximity
of the appliance. When frying, please pay
particular attention to fire risk due to oil
grease. Being highly inflammable, fried oil is
especially dangerous. Do not use uncovered
electric grills.
In order to avoid possible fire risk, all
instructions for grease filter cleaning and for
removing eventual grease deposits should be
strictly followed.
WARNINGS
*The appliance is not intended for use by
young children or infirm persons without
supervision. Young children should be
supervised to ensure they do not play with
the appliance.
*The cooking surface and the inferior part of
the cooker hood must be at a minimum
distance of 65 cm.
*The extracted air cannot be conveyed
through or into a duct used to let out
fumes from appliances fed by energy other
than electric power (eg centralized heating,
radiators, water heaters, etc).
*To evacuate the air outlet, please comply
with the pertaining rules given by competent
authorities.
*Provide the room with an adequate ventilation
when a cooker hood and appliances fed by
energy other than electric power (gas, oil, or coal
stoves, etc.) are used simultaneously. The cooker
hood, when evacuating the extracted air, could
generate a negative pressure in the room which
can’t exceed the limit of 0.04mbar, in order to
avoid the suck of exhausts deriving from the heat
source. Therefore the room should be provided
with air intakes to allow a constant flow of fresh
air.
*When performing the electrical connections on
the appliance, please make sure that the current
tap is provided with earth connection and that
voltage values correspond to those indicated on
the rating label placed inside the appliance itself.
*Before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operations, the appliance needs
to be removed from the electric grid. If the
appliance is not provided with a non separable
flexible cable and plug, or with another device
ensuring omni-polar disconnections from the grid,
with an opening distance between the contacts
of at least 3 mm, then such disconnecting
devices must be supplied within the fixed
installation.
USES
The appliance is already arranged both for
filtering and for suction performances.
*In its filtering version (Fig.1), the air and
fumes conveyed by the appliance are cleaned
both by a grease filter and by an active
charcoal filter, and put again into circulation
through the side vents of the chimney. For
this version an air deflector placed on the
superior part of the pipe and allowing air
recycling is necessary (Fig.1A).
*In its vented version (Fig.2), fumes are
directly conveyed outside, through an
evacuation duct connected with the superior
part of the wall or the ceiling. Both charcoal
filter and air deflector are not necessary in this
case.

TIMING
As a result of the new EU65 “Energy label” and
EU66 “ Ecodesign” regulations issued by the
European Commission, which came into force as
from January 1st, 2015 , our products have been
adapted to comply with these new requirements.
All of the models complying with the energy label
requirements, are equipped with new
electronics including a timer device for speed
controls, when the air capacity exceeds 650m³/h.
Internal motor models, with maximum air
capacity higher than 650m³/h, are equipped
with a timer device that automatically switches
the speed from 4th to 3rd speed, after 5 minutes
operation.
External motor models are equipped with remote
motors that , as for internal motor versions,
include a timer device that switches down the
speed when it exceeds 650 mᵌ/h. (See External
Motors Instructions). Remote motors, whose air
capacity exceeds 650m³/h at both 4th and 3rd
speed, will have the following by default timer
control functions: The speed is automatically
switched from 4th to 2nd speed, after 6
minutes operation.
If the appliance is working at 3rd speed, it is
automatically switched to 2nd speed, after 7
minutes operation. Operation speeds can also
be changed during operation.
The energy consumption of the appliance in
standby mode is lower than 0.5W.
MAINTENANCE
*An accurate maintenance guarantees good
functioning and long lasting performance.
*Particular care is due to the grease filter
panel. It can be removed by pushing its
special handle toward the back-side of the
cooker hood and turning the filter downwards
so to unfasten it from its slot (Fig.3A).
This can be cleaned by hand with warm soapy
water, or cleaned in the dishwasher.
To insert the filter just perform the opposite
operation.
*In the case the appliance is used in
recirculation mode, the active charcoal filter
(Fig.8Z) needs to be periodically replaced. The
charcoal filter can be removed by removing
the grease filter first (Fig.3A), and by pulling
its special plastic tongue until it is
unfastened from its slot. Re insert the
charcoal filter by operating in the opposite
way. The charcoal filter (CAP38CF) should be
replaced after every 6 months. However this
can depend on its use. Replacement filters can
be purchased via our Caple website
www.caple.co.uk
*To clean the appliance itself tepid water and
neutral detergent are recommended, while
abrasive products should be avoided. For
steel appliances specialized detergents are
recommended (please follow the instructions
indicated on the product itself to obtain the
desired results).
*Before replacing the lamps, disconnect the
appliance from the electric mains. Remove
the grease filter and the carbon filter, if it is
inserted. Once the burnt out bulb is localized,
turn it anticlockwise and replace it with a
bulb of the same type.
To replace and remove the led lamp, (Fig.9)
remove the lamp by inserting a screwdriver or
another sharp tool between the lamp and its
chrome support. replace with a lamp of the
same kind.
*If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its sevice
agent or a similarly qualified person in order
to avoid a hazard.
