The ventilation hood works by air ex-
traction. The air is drawn in and
cleaned by the grease filters and di-
rected outside.
The hood comes equipped with a
non-return flap. This flap automatically
closes when the hood is turned off so
that no exchange of outside air and
room air can occur. When the hood is
turned on, the air pressure of the ex-
haust fan automatically opens the flap
blowing the inside air and cooking
odors outside.

Reprogra ing the grease filter
ti er
The grease filter timer is preset to 30
hours. This time can be lengthened or
shortened to 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours.
–A time of 20 hours should be pro-
grammed in kitchens with frequent
pan or deep frying.
–A time of 20 hours should also be
programmed if the kitchen is only
used occasionally. Otherwise grease
which has accumulated over a long
period of time will harden on the fil-
ters making cleaning more difficult.
^Press the On/Off button to turn off the
fan.
^Press the Delayed Shut Down and
grease filter buttons at the same time.
The indicator for the grease filter and
one of the pm indicators will flash.
The lit pm indicator shows the pro-
grammed time:
1st indicator from the left = 20 hours
2nd indicator from the left = 30 hours
3rd indicator from the left = 40 hours
4th indicator from the left = 50 hours.
^Use the por mbutton to select
the desired time.
^Store the selection by pressing the
grease filter button.
If the procedure is not stored within
4 minutes of programming, the hood
will automatically default to the "old"
data.
Operation
12

Before cleaning or servicing the
hood, disconnect it from the power
supply by either removing the fuse,
unplugging it from the outlet or man-
ually "tripping" the circuit breaker.
Cleaning the casing
Warning: Never use abrasive clean-
ers, scouring pads, steel wool or
caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood.
They will damage the surface.
^All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned with warm water and liq-
uid dish soap applied with a soft
sponge.
^Wipe dry using a soft cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
^Glass surfaces can be cleaned using
glass cleaner.
Avoid:
–cleaning agents containing soda, ac-
ids or chlorides,
–abrasive cleaning agents e.g. pow-
der or cream cleansers,
–abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been previ-
ously used with abrasive cleaning
agents.
These will damage the surface.
Stainless steel
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner
for stainless steel can also be used.
Apply sparingly with even pressure.
Stainless steel colored controls
These controls may become discol-
ored or damaged if not cleaned reg-
ularly.
Do not use a stainless steel cleaner
on these controls.
Cleaning and Care
13

Grease filters
The reusable metal grease filters re-
move solid particles from the vented
kitchen air (grease, dust, etc).
The grease filters should be cleaned
every 3-4 weeks or whenever the
grease filter indicator lights.
A dirty filter is a fire hazard. ^To remove the grease filters press the
locking clips in towards the middle of
the filter. Holding carefully, lower and
remove the filter.
^Clean the filters
-by hand: use a scrub brush in
warm water with a mild detergent.
-in a dishwasher: place the filters in
the lower basket, making sure that
the spray arm is not blocked.
Depending on the detergent, clean-
ing the grease filters in a dishwasher
may cause permanent discoloration
of the filter surface. Performance of
the filter will not be affected by this
discoloration.
^After cleaning, the filters can be
placed on a towel to air dry.
^While the filters are removed, clean
any dirt or grease from the filter cas-
ing to prevent the risk of fire.
Cleaning and Care
14

When putting the grease filters back
make sure that the locking clips are vis-
ible facing down towards the cooking
surface.
If a filter is incorrectly installed, insert a
small screwdriver into the slit along its
edge to disengage it from the casing.
^After returning the grease filters,
press the grease filter button for
3 seconds to reset the timer. The indi-
cator light will go out.
^If the grease filters are cleaned be-
fore the timer has reached its maxi-
mum, the grease filter button should
be pressed for 6 seconds to reset the
counter to zero.
Cleaning and Care
15

Changing the light bulb
Before changing the light bulbs, dis-
connect the hood from the power
supply by either removing the fuse,
unplugging it, or manually "tripping"
the circuit breaker.
When in use halogen bulbs become
extremely hot, and they can burn
your hands. Do not attempt to
change the bulbs until they have
had sufficient time to cool down.
Do not touch the bulb surface. Fin-
gerprints or body oils deposited on
the bulb will decrease the life of the
bulb. Please follow the bulb manu-
facturer’s instructions.
^To change the halogen bulb first re-
move the lamp cover, a.
^Pull the bulb, b, out of its socket and
replace with a new one.
^Return the lamp cover, a.
Never use the lighting without the
lamp cover, a, in place. The glass is
specially made to filter harmful light
rays.
