SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Whilst this product is compliant with all safety requirements, incorrect or
inappropriate use can lead to both personal injury and potential damage
to property. Please read the contents of this instruction booklet
thoroughly before fitting or using this appliance.
•The cooker hood must be installed in accordance with the installation
instructions and all measurements followed.
•All installation work must be carried out by a competent person or
qualified electrician.
•The unit must be connected to an earthed power supply.
•If venting externally, make sure the ducting has no bends sharper than
90 degrees as this will reduce the efficiency of the cooker hood.
•The cooker hood is for domestic use only and is not designed for
commercial use. It should only be used for the purpose it was intended
–to extract vapours and cooking odours.
•Do not flambé or use an open flame under the cooker hood.
•Do not try to use the cooker hood without the grease filters or if the
filters are excessively greasy! They should be cleaned regularly (see
“Maintenance”) or replaced as necessary.
•The extraction fan must be level to avoid grease collection at one end,
as this could cause a potential fire risk.
•Do not leave frying pans unattended during use because overheated
fat or oils might catch fire.
•If the cooker hood is damaged, do not attempt to use it.
•If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a
hazard.
•This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above
and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or
lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
•Children must not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
•Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance. It is not a toy.

5
•The plug must be accessible after installation for isolation in case of an
emergency –or an appropriate fused switch if the unit is hard-wired to
the mains via a spur.
•The minimum distance between the surface of the hob and the lowest
part of the hood should be at least 65cm. A distance of between 65cm
and 75cm gives peak efficiency.
•The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
•When the hood is vented externally and used with appliances which
burn fuel (e.g. gas, oil, wood) the area must be sufficiently ventilated to
ensure safe operation. Fresh air must be allowed to freely enter the
room to prevent a partial vacuum.
•A partial vacuum can starve the heating appliance of oxygen, impairing
combustion. It can also prevent toxic fumes from leaving the room, or
can cause fumes to be sucked into the room from outside.
•Safe operation is only possible when the partial vacuum within the
working area does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). This can be achieved
by ensuring air is able to enter the room from outside through a suitable
sized opening which cannot be sealed during operation. A number of
alternative solutions are available to ensure this. If in any doubt,
professional advice should be sought.
•Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
•There is a potential fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance
with the instructions.
•Clean your appliance periodically by following the method given in the
chapter MAINTENANCE
•If used in recirculation mode, charcoal filters (available separately) can
be used to trap odours and must be replaced at least once a year
depending on how frequently the cooker hood has been used.
•For safety reason, please use only the same size of fixing or mounting
screw, which are recommended in this instruction manual.
•Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance
with these instructions may result in electrical hazards
CAUTION: Accessible parts of the hood can become very hot during
use with cooking appliances, whether in use or not, due to heat rising
from the hob. Sufficient time should be allowed for the unit to cool
before touching either the housing or the grease filters.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, switch the unit off and disconnect the power.
Use a soft cloth moistened with mild soapy water or household cleaning detergent.
Never use metal pads, chemicals, abrasive material or stiff brushes to clean the
unit.
NOTE: Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the hood as electrical components
could be damaged or short-circuit as a result.

MONTHLY CLEANING FOR METALLIC ANTI-GREASE FILTER
IMPORTANT NOTE: Clean the filter every month; an excessive build-up of grease
can become a fire hazard. The filter collects grease, smoke and dust, so the filter
directly affects the efficiency of the cooker hood. If it’s not cleaned, the grease
residue (potentially flammable) will saturate on the filter.
Clean it with a soft nylon brush in a mild solution of warm water and a small amount
of washing up liquid. Washing up liquid alone should not be used. After cleaning,
allow the filter to drain and then dry thoroughly.
The grease filter may also be cleaned in a dishwasher; using a 60°C program, with
the filter upright (short sides upright) in the lower basket. Please be aware some
dishwasher cleaning agents can permanently discolour the filter, though this will not
affect its performance.
Replacement grease filters are of the universal type available from many household
and DIY stores.
STAINLESS STEEL
The stainless steel must be cleaned regularly (e.g. weekly) to ensure long life
expectancy.
Dry with a clean soft cloth. A specialised stainless-steel cleaning fluid may be used.
Ensure that wiping is done along with the grain of the stainless steel to prevent any
unsightly crisscross scratching patterns from appearing.
CONTROL PANEL SURFACE
The control panel inlay can be cleaned using warm soapy water. Ensure the cloth is
clean and well wrung before cleaning. Use a dry soft cloth to remove any excess
moisture left after cleaning.
Using neutral detergents and avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals, strong
household detergents or products containing abrasives, as this will affect the
appliance appearance and potentially remove any printing of artwork on the control
panel and will void manufactures warranty.
GREASE MESH FILTERS
The mesh filters can be cleaned by hand or in a dishwasher. By hand, soak them
for an hour in water with a mild detergent then brush it gently with a soft brush. Do
not apply too much pressure, or this may damage them. Leave to dry naturally out
of direct sun light.
In a dishwasher, stack them vertically, where possible. Filters should be washed
separately to crockery and kitchen utensils. It is advisable not to use rinse aid.

11
INSTALLING GREASE MESH FILTERS
To install filters:
1. Angle the filter into the slots at the back of the hood.
2. Push the button on handle of the filter.
3. Release the handle once the filter fits into position.
4. Repeat to install both filters.
CARBON FILTER (not supplied)
Activated carbon filters can be used to trap odours. The activated carbon filter
should be changed between three and six months according to use. The installation
procedure of activated carbon filters is as below.
1. Fit the carbon filter into the unit and
turn it clockwise to lock.
2. Repeat on the other side.
NOTE:
•Make sure filters are securely locked
in position, otherwise, they may
become loose and be dangerous.
•With activated carbon filters fitted you may notice suction is slightly
reduced.
