Important safety information
Your safety is of the utmost importance to Lamona. Please make sure that
you read this instruction booklet before attempting to install or use the
appliance. If you are unsure of any of the information contained in this
booklet, please contact the Lamona Advice Line.
Keep this Book in a handy place for reference; it contains important details on the safe and proper
use of your appliance. Should you sell the extractor please remember to pass on the instruction
book to the new owner.
Technical Information
The extractor is designed to give you the option to extract air by ducting to the outside and away (via
an exterior wall), or to re-circulate through charcoal lters to minimise odours, steam and condensation.
The choice is yours to decide at installation, and both systems are explained in the booklet.

Methods of Extraction
The very best method of cleaning the kitchen of unwanted odours is by connecting the appliance to
an exhaust duct and venting to the outside atmosphere via the ceiling to an exterior wall. (Suitable
ductingkits may be purchased from the store where you bought your extractor.) You do not need a
charcoal lter when using the ducting mode.
REMEMBER: BEFORE DRILLING OR CHISELLING THE CEILING OR WALL, CHECK FOR PIPES AND
POWER CABLES.
1. Ensure the ducting tube is kept as short as possible and with the minimum of bends to permit the
smoothest airow. (Maximum length 3 metres.)
2. Ducted air must not be discharged into a ue, which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances
supplied with energy other than electricity.
3. Ensure the requirements of the local authorities are adhered to concerning the discharge of exhaust air.
4. Ensure adequate room ventilation is provided when the extractor is used in the same room as appliances
supplied with energy other than electricity.
5. Never duct into a hot air ow such as a central heating duct.

Electrical Connections
IMPORTANT: ENSURE THAT THE ELECTRICITY
SUPPLY IS SWITCHED OFF BEFORE CONNECT-
ING.
Your appliance must be connected to xed wiring
via the use of a double pole switched fused spur
outlet with at least 3mm contact separation, with
a pilot lamp.
The isolation switch must be accessible after
installation.
(See technical data for fuse rating).
We strongly recommend the appliance is
connected by a qualied electrician who is a
member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. or Gas Safe Register who
will comply with the I.E.E and any local regulations.
NOTE:
The terminology -DOUBLE POLE+ means that both
the live and neutral supplies are switched and
disconnected at the same time.
The terminations labelled SUPPLY are for the
connection for the internal house wiring and the
terminations labelled LOAD are for the connection
for the appliance.
IMPORTANT
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in
accordance with the following code:-
Blue ...................... Neutral
Brown ................... Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
appliance may not correspond with the coloured
markings identifying the terminals in your spur
box, proceed as follows;
The wire which is coloured blue must be
connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter ‘N’ or coloured black. The wire which is
coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘L’or coloured red.

Operating Your Extractor
A)Light switch. B)Selects motor speed 1.
C)Selects motor speed 2. D)Selects motor speed 3.
WARNING: NEVER HAVE A LIGHTED FLAME UNDER THE EXTRACTOR HOOD.
The Grease Filters
The grease lter is of a metallic material and should be washed using a neutral detergent or in a dishwasher.
REMOVAL OF GREASE FILTERS:
1 Press latch towards side of extractor
2 Remove lter.
IMPORTANT: You should never attempt to
use the extractor without the grease lter,
since grease build-up could prevent the
motor working properly. If the lter is not
cleaned regularly the risk of re will be
increased.
The Carbon Filters
Carbon lters have a limited life. We advise you
to change them when there is a noticeable
drop in performance. The intervals between
changing the lter will depend entirely upon
the amount of cooking you do, but on average
they will last about 6 months.
To gain access to the carbon lters rst of all,
remove the grease lters as above. Remove the
old lters and reposition new charcoal lters
(HJA2900 - pack of 2).

Maintenance
Before cleaning or attempting any type of maintenance, always make sure that the electric supply is
disconnected.
To avoid the possibility of re, adhere strictly to all of the recommendations included in this booklet,
paying particular attention to the grease lters to ensure grease deposits do not build up.
THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL LIABILITY IN CASES WHERE THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
APPROPRIATE INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND USE OF THE EXTRACTOR HOOD ARE NOT OBSERVED.
If the power supply is cut or damaged in any way, disconnect the extractor from the electricity supply
and call the service number on the rear cover of this booklet.
General Cleaning
Wipe the external surfaces of the appliance regularly using warm water and a mild detergent. NEVER use
abrasive cleaners.
Replacing the Halogen Lamps
Ensure that the power is switched o.
Unscrew to remove the lamp and replace it with a new lamp of the same type and wattage. Remove
grease lters to make it easier.
IMPORTANT WARNING:
The replacement lamps must have aluminium reector, never use dichroic lamps, to
avoid unnecessary overheating on the lamp holders.
NOTE: LAMP REPLACEMENT IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR GUARANTEE

Page 14www.howdens.com
Trouble Shooting
Before you assume the worst, check this simple fault-nding guide to get to the root of the problem:
1. Halogen Lamps fail to operate
A replacement is probably necessary, but rst check that the lamp is correctly tted into its
holder. Remember that the light bulbs are not covered by our guarantee. Remember to
disconnect the mains electricity supply before replacing the lamps.
2. Motor is on but fandoes not seem to be as ecient as usual
Check the grease lter. If it has not been cleaned recently, it might be clogged with grease. If
this lter is relatively clean, check carbon lters (if tted). If they have not been replaced for
more than six months, remove and insert new ones. As time goes by, accumulated grease
tends to stie the carbon lters in just the same way as the grease lter, thereby reducing the
eciency of both the fan and the lter itself.
3. Works normally but cooking smells linger
If you’re using the unit in recirculating mode, change thecharcoal lter. It may require
replacement.
4. Appliance does not work at all
Check your extractor is switched on at the mains. Next, check there is power to your home by
switching on adjacent lights etc.
5. Still not working? Call the service agent
If, having consulted the above diagnostic chart you are still
unable to remedy the situation, please call the service number on the rear cover of this
manual.
