This cooker hood can be used to recirculate or extract
contaminated air.
Recirculation
The cooker hood is supplied specified for use in the
recirculation mode with the charcoal filter fitted.
The contaminated air is cleaned by passing through the
filters and then back into the kitchen.
The activated charcoal filter absorbs odours arising from
cooking. In use it will slowly become saturated in grease
and less effective. The filter normally requires changing
after at least every three months or more frequently if
the hood is used for more than three hours per day.
Extraction
The contamined air enters the cooker hood passing
through the grease filter and out through the ducting into
the atmosphere.
When used in the extraction mode the charcoal filter is
not required and must be removed.
Never do flambé cooking under this
cooker hood.
Take extra care when frying and never
leave frying pans unattended during
use, as over-heated fats and oils can
catch fire.
Do not leave naked flames under the
cooker hood.
nsure the hood is switched on
before using the hob.
nsure heating areas on your hob are
covered with pots and pans when using
the hob and cooker hood
simultaneously.
nsure not to damage the charcoal filter
when cleaning or replacing as the activated
charcoal inside is saturated with grease,
which will stain if it comes into contact
with clothing or furnishings.
