EU Declarations of Conformity
This appliance has been manufactured to the strictest standards
and complies with all applicable legislation, including Electrical safety
(LVD) 2014/35/EU and Electromagnetic interference (EMC) 2014/30/
EU.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF THE
PRODUCT IN ACCORDANCE WITH EU DIRECTIVE 2012/19/EU.
At the end of its working life, the product must be taken to a special
local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing
appliance recycling services.
Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible
negative consequences for the environment and health. It also
enables the constituent materials to be recovered, saving both
energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of
household appliances separately, the product is marked with a
crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
Please note:
• Under no circumstances should the extractor be connected to any
gas ventilation system, flue system or hot air ducting system.
• Do not vent the extractor into an attic or loft space.
• Only house the extractor in rooms with adequate ventilation.
Remember that the extractor is powerful and whatever air is
extracted needs to be replaced.
• Do not tile the extractor in. It should be removable for service or
maintenance.
• Do not use silicone sealant to secure the hood to the wall.
• You must be able to isolate the extractor from the mains electrical
supply after installation.
• Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.

• The performance of your extractor will vary depending on a
number of factors. These include: type of extraction, length of
ducting, room volume, ventilation available and cleanliness of the
filters.
Using your extractor
For best performance, you should switch on the extractor 15 minutes
before starting to cook and leave it to run for approximately 15 minutes
after the end of cooking.

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, push in
the button on the handle and then
pull down on the filter at the front.
When you have released it at the
front, then you can pull out the filter.
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)
To ensure best performance of your extractor, you should replace the
charcoal filter every four to six months, depending on use.
To attach a new charcoal filter, first remove the grease filters as
described above.
Insert the charcoal filter into the guide on the side of the motor, then
slide the filter in until it locks into place. Repeat with the second filter on
the opposite side. Finally replace the grease filters.
Changing a light bulb
DO NOT CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE AS
THE BULB WILL BE HOT. ALLOW IT TO COOL BEFORE REMOVING IT.
SWITCH OFF THE POWER TO THE EXTRACTOR BEFORE PERFORMING
A BULB CHANGE.
Unscrew the light bulb cover. Unscrew the light bulb and replace with
the required 28W max candle bulb E14 SES. Finally, replace the light
bulb cover.
Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas during or straight after prolonged
use of the lights.

8
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.
Electrical information
Mains electrical voltage: 230 – 240Vac, 50Hz
Total rated power consumption:
176W
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.

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
The appliance should be 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.T. 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 to 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.

10
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.

Mounting your extractor
When the extractor is to be installed
above an electric hob, the minimum
distance between the hob and
extractor must exceed 600mm (650mm
is recommended).
When the extractor is to be installed
above a gas hob, the minimum
distance between the hob and
extractor must exceed 700mm (750mm
is recommended).
Iftheinstructionsprovidedwithyour gas
hob state that the required distance
between the hob and extractor must
be greater than 700mm, then that is the
distance that should be observed; this
is a legal requirement and may lead to
your hob being disconnected from the
gas supply and the installation being
reported under RIDDOR (The height
should be measured from the top of the burners).
Below is a guide to accompany Fig. 4
Fig. 4
Gas: 750mm recommended.
Electric: 650mm recommended.
Fig. 5
* The actual height of C depends on the height of the ceiling and the
position of the hob.

12
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH THE GAS
HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HOB AND EXTRACTOR
MUST BE AT LEAST 760mm.
The width of any hob must not be greater than the width of the extractor
installed above it.
Ducting and ventilation
For best performance and lowest noise output, we recommend the
use of 125mm ducting. Using ducting of a lesser diameter will reduce
performance.
Wherever possible utilise rigid circular pipe which has a smooth
interior, rather than the expanding concertina type ducting. The
lengths of ducting with minimal effect on performance are as follows:
• 4 metres with 1 x 90° bend.
• 3 metres with 2 x 90° bends.
• 2 metres with 3 x 90° bends.
Longer ducting can be used but the performance of the extractor will
likely be reduced.
The ducting used should be 125mm, rigid pipe of a constant diameter
and must be manufactured from fire retardant material, produced to
BS 476 or DIN 4102-B1.
Ducting kits are optional extras and are not provided with the
appliance.
