SAFETY AND WARNINGS
WARNING!
When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions including
the following:
General
z This product is for use with a compatible Fisher & Paykel external motor (some
models only). Failure to comply could void your warranty. Please read the entire set of
instructions before installing or using this appliance.
z Remove all packaging, including protective wrappings, before use.
z The room must have adequate ventilation when the rangehood is used at the same time
as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
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. Cleaning
and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
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.
z Do not flambé under the rangehood.
z The rangehood may stop working during an electrostatic discharge (eg lightning).
Switch off the electricity supply to the rangehood and reconnect after one minute.
z CAUTION: accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
Maintenance
z You must read the details concerning the method and frequency of cleaning.
z Unplug or disconnect the appliance from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.
z There is a fire risk if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.
z Never use the rangehood without the filters in place.
z Never use abrasive or oil based cleaners.

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 rangehood 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 rangehood nor the induction cooktop are faulty.
Reducing condensation
z When boiling, use the rangehood on a lower speed setting and the induction cooktop on
a lower heat setting.
z Switch the rangehood on 5 minutes before cooking and let it run for at least 5minutes
after cooking.
Gas
Rangehood 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 rangehood on for a few minutes before cooking. This will establish air currents
up through the rangehood, remove hot air from your kitchen and keep the rangehood
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
rangehood 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.
