Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT : DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OF THE
EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Cleaning
You should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will
scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings.
You can clean your extractor effectively by simply using a dilute solution of water
and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.
Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filter should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
At least once a month you should remove and clean the grease filter with hot
soapy water. You can also wash the grease filter in a dishwasher, ensuring that
you place it in an upright position to prevent damage from other items in the
dishwasher. After rinsing and drying, replace the filter.
To remove the grease filter pull open the handle on the grease filter as shown in
fig. 2. It will release at the handle side. Then lower the grease filter to remove it
completely.
To replace the grease filter, repeat the steps in reverse.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease filter in the dishwasher may lead to discolouration. This is
normal and does not constitute a fault with the appliance.
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only)
The charcoal filter must be replaced every four to six months, depending on use.
To attach a new charcoal filter, first remove the grease filter as shown in figure 2.
Then offer up the charcoal filter into the frame as shown in figure 3 until it locks
into place.

Changing the Light
DO NOT CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE AS THE
BULB WILL BE HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL BEFORE REMOVING IT.
Remove the light bulb cover, please see figure 4. Unscrew the light bulb and replace
with a 12V 20W halogen light bulb. Finally, replace the light bulb cover.
Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas during or straight after prolonged use of
the lights.
The light is designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination.
Extended use of the light can reduce the life span of the bulb.
Bulb replacement is not covered by the guarantee.
Only use bulbs recommended for your extractor. Do not fit bulbs of a higher
power rating.
Bulbs of a lower power rating may be adequate for use, generally last longer and
use less energy.

DOUBLE POLE SWITCHED
FUSED SPUR OUTLET
USE A 3 AMP FUSE
Mains Electricity Connection
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE MAINS SUPPLY BY A COMPETENT PERSON, USING FIXED
WIRING VIA A DOUBLE POLE SWITCHED FUSE SPUR OUTLET AND PROTECTED BY A 3A FUSE.
Warning! This appliance must be earthed
We recommend that the appliance is connected by a qualified electrician, who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and who
will comply with the I.E.E. and local regulations.
The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green &Yellow = Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead for the appliance may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the terminals connecting to the fuse spur,
proceed as follows:
•The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the
terminal marked E (Earth) or coloured green.
•The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked
N (Neutral), or coloured black.
•The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked
L (Live), or coloured red.
Note: Use a 3A Fuse
Assembly and electrical connection should be carried out by specialised personnel.
When installing this product we recommend you seek the help of another individual.
Do not mount the isolation switch behind the chimney section. It is a requirement that you must be able to isolate the
extractor from the mains electrical supply after installation.
This appliance is intended to be connected to the mains electrical supply by means of an isolation switch and fused
spur and is intended to be protected by a 3A fuse. The use of a 13A fuse can cause damage to the internal wiring in the
event of a fault, and may also invalidate the warranty.
Electrical Information
Mains electrical voltage: 230 – 240Vac, 50Hz
Total rated power consumption:
238W
Troubleshooting
If your extractor is not working:
1. Check that the mains supply has not been switched off.
2. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.

Installation
Your extractor can be used to filter and recycle the air within
your kitchen as shown in fig 5, or to extract the air outside as
shown in fig 6. When extracting air to the outside, the unit
can be vented as shown in the diagram below. Note that we
recommend the use of ducting with a diameter of 150mm.
Ducting with diameters of 100mm or 120mm may be used,
but performance will be reduced.
When installing this appliance over a CDA hob, the clearance
between the extractor and the hob must be equal to or
exceed 650mm. This instruction overrides the instructions
supplied with the CDA hob. (The height should be measured
from the top of the hotplates or burners)
Where the extractor is to be installed above a non-CDA hob,
the instructions supplied with the hob may dictate that the
height required above the hob is greater than 650mm.
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED
WITH THE HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN
THE HOB AND EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT LEAST
760mm
Fitting your extractor to the wall:
Before commencing, remove the grease filter.

FITTING YOUR EXTRACTOR TO
THE WALL:
Before commencing, remove the grease filter as shown
above.
The extractor is mounted to the wall using 4 screws. Ensure
that any fixings (including any that are supplied) are suitable
for the wall material. Mark the positions of the holes on the
wall, according to the information shown in the image fig 7.
Next, insert the wall plugs into the holes and fit two screws
into the top plugs, leaving approx 5mm protruding.
Carefully lift the body of the extractor with the chimney
located over the body section onto the screws and make
any slight adjustments to the level of the extractor before
securing in position by tightening the top screws.
Fit the bottom screws and tighten to permanently locate the
body of the product in the final position. Make a final check
to ensure that the metal grease filter is at least the required
height above your hob.
Using the chimney mounting bracket as a guide, mark and
drill the fixing holes on the wall. Secure the chimney bracket
in position using the two appropriate screws.
If your extractor is being used as a recirculation device,
secure the chimney in place using the two supplied screws,
shown in fig 8.
If you are using the extractor to vent outside, connect the
duct pipe to the outlet adapter and then secure the chimney
in place using the 2 supplied screws, as shown in fig 8.
Note:
If the electrical supply to your extractor is hidden behind the
chimney, please ensure that there is an accessible isolation
switch to allow the extractor to be disconnected from the
mains for service and maintenance purposes. Fig. 8
