WARNING!
When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions includingthe following:
General
z This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by
a person responsible for their safety.
z Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
z Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
z Do not flambé under the cooker hood.
z CAUTION: accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
z Remove all packaging, including protective wrappings, before use.
z The room must have adequate ventilation when the cooker hood is used at the same
time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
z The cooker hood may stop working during an electrostatic discharge (eg lightning).
Switch off the electricity supply to the cooker hood and reconnect after one minute.
z Never leave frying food unattended since grease can overheat and catch fire. The risk of
fire is even greater in the case of used oil.
Installation
z Please read the entire set of instructions before installing or using this appliance.
z Please make this information available to the person installing the appliance – doing so
could reduce your installation costs.
z Always switch the power off prior to installation, servicing or cleaning of the appliance.
z This appliance must be installed and connected to the mains power supply only by a
suitably qualified person according to these installation instructions and in compliance
with any applicable local building and electricity regulations. Failure to install the
appliance correctly could invalidate any warranty or liability claims.
z To comply with electrical safety regulations, the appliance must be plugged into
a socket near the appliance. The socket must be accessible, or have an accessible
isolating switch, to enable the end user to isolate the appliance from the power for the
purpose of internal cleaning or maintenance.
z A power outlet should be within 750mm of the cooker hood and can either be on the
wall, behind the chimney or in the ceiling.
z If the supply cord of this equipment is damaged, it must only be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
z All ducting must comply with local requirements and building codes.
z Attention should be given to ensure that any applicable regulations concerning the
discharge of exhaust air are fulfilled.
z To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to duct air outside — do
not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces,
or garages.
z Before connecting any pipes, consult municipal ordinances to ensure that any
applicable regulations concerning the discharge of exhaust air are adhered to and
request permission from the person in charge of the building.
z To reduce the risk of damage occurring to the cooktop, it is recommended that
the surface of the cooktop is protected with cardboard or a similar object during
installation of the cooker hood.

6
SAFETY AND WARNINGS
z When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other
hidden utilities.
z WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these
instructions may result in electrical hazards.
z Exhaust air must not be discharged into an existing flue that is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
z When the cooker hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity are
simultaneously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa
(4 × 10-5 bar).
z CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-
out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a
timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
z The minimum distance between the supporting surface for cooking vessels on the hob
and the lowest part of the cooker hood shall be 600mm, or 650mm if installed over a
gas hob. If the instructions for installation for a gas hob specify a greater distance, this
has to be taken into account.
z The distance of 65cm can be reduced for:
– non-combustible parts of cooker hoods, except grease filters, and/or
– parts operating at safety extra low voltage, provided these parts do not give
access to live parts if deformed.
Maintenance
z Unplug or disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.
z You must read the details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning.
z There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions in
your user guide.

COOKING CONSIDERATIONS
Induction
Induction cooktops use energy-efficient technology that only heats the contents of a
cooking pot, not the surrounding air. As a result, there is more likelihood of condensation on
cooker hood filters, splashbacks and surrounding cabinetry than when you use traditional
electric or gas cooktops.
Other factors that influence condensation are room temperature, humidity, natural
ventilation of the room, size of the cookware and how the induction cooktop is being
used. For example, rapid boiling increases the likelihood of condensation. It is important to
understand that neither the cooker hood nor the induction cooktop are faulty.
Reducing condensation
z When boiling, use the cooker hood on a lower speed setting and the induction cooktop
on a lower heat setting.
z Switch the cooker hood on 5 minutes before cooking and let it run for at least 5minutes
after cooking.
Gas
Cooker hood surfaces may become hot if using a powerful gas cooktop or multiple gas
burners operating at the same time. This effect can be reduced by using the maximum
speed setting to enable hot air to be extracted quickly.
Optimising performance
z Turn your cooker hood on for a few minutes before cooking. This will establish air
currents up through the cooker hood, remove hot air from your kitchen and keep the
cooker hood surface cool.
z Reduce fan speed for normal use and increase it for high heat, strong odours or fumes.

Disconnect the product from the power source before undertaking any cleaning. Clean
your cooker hood regularly using a mild, liquid detergent and a clean soft cloth to avoid a
build-up of grease. Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals, abrasive cleaning products, hard
brushes and steel wool pads. In areas of high humidity or coastal environments, cleaning
should be carried out more frequently.
Do not operate the hood without filters in place.
Aluminium filters
z Clean the filters at least once a month. Filters may need to be cleaned more frequently
depending on the cooking methods used and frequency of use.
z Aluminium filters should be removed and cleaned with hot soapy water or in
a dishwasher.
z If washed in a dishwasher, the filter should be placed in an upright position to prevent
food from falling on them.
z After rinsing and drying, refit the filters.
CARE AND CLEANING
Pull the catch and tilt the filter downwards
until vertical, then lift the filter up to
disengage it from the supports.
