To perate
Select the required fan speed and light if required.
The appliance can be installed to recirculate or
extract contaminated air. The cooker hood is more
effective when used in the extraction mode.
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 at least every three months or
more frequently if the hood is used for more than
three hours per day.
Extraction
The contaminated air enters the cooker hood
passing through the grease filters and out through
the ducting into the atmosphere.
When used in the extract 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.

6
Before carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning isolate the cooker hood from the
mains supply.
The cooker hood must be kept clean, as a
build up of grease or fat can be a fire
hazard.
External Cleaning
The metal casing, visor and chimney should be
cleaned at least once a month to keep the hood
looking like new. Wipe over the hood with a soft
cloth wrung out in mild soapy water and then dry
thoroughly.
Always wear protective gloves when
cleaning the hood.
Never use scouring pads or abrasive
cleaners as they may scratch of damage
the surfaces.
Never use excessive amounts of water
when cleaning particularly around the
control panel.
Metal Grease Filter
The metal grease filter should be cleaned at least
every month. The filter may be washed by hand
using mild soapy water, or can be machine washed
in a dishwasher. Allow to dry completely before
replacing.
To Remove the Grease Filter
Remove the metal grease filter by pushing
inwardly on the two steel handles; replace,
making sure the handles have sprung back
into position and are completely visible.
