Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood. To avoid the
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill
over an open flame under the cooker
hood. When switched on, the cooker
hood could draw flames into the filter.
Fat particles drawn into the cooker
hood present a fire hazard.
When using the cooker hood over
a gas hob, ensure that any burners
in use are always covered by a pan.
Switch the cooking zone off when a pan
is removed, even for a short time.
Regulate the flame so that it does not
burn up the sides of the pan.
Do not allow the pans to overheat
excessively (e.g. when using a wok).
The cooker hood can become
damaged when exposed to excessive
heat.
Always switch the cooker hood on
when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in
the hood, which could cause corrosion.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip
pans and deep fat fryers etc, do
not leave the pans unattended. Never
leave an open grill unattended when
grilling. Overheated oil and fat can
ignite and could set the cooker hood on
fire.
8
Do not use the cooker hood without
the filters in place. This way you
will avoid the risk of grease and dirt
getting into the appliance and
hindering its smooth operation.
The filters should be regularly
cleaned or changed as
appropriate. Saturated filters are a fire
hazard. See "Cleaning and care".
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean this appliance. Pressurised
steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.

Correct installation

The minimum safety distances
between the top of a cooker or hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood are
as follows, unless a greater distance is
specified by the manufacturer of your
cooking appliance:
– 550 mm above electric hobs
and cookers,
– 650 mm above gas hobs and
cookers,
– 650 mm above an open grill or deep
fat fryer.
If more than one appliance is fitted
beneath the cooker hood and they have
different minimum safety distances to
the cooker hood, select the greater
distance.
