Filter version
In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the steam of cooking outside, the hood can be
used in the filter version: the aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being fed back into
the room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a charcoal filter (supplied).
Operation
The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to
control cooking area lights. Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen vapours.
a. ON/OFF light switch
b. Speed 1/OFF switch
c. 2‐speed selection
d. 3‐speed selection
Tips on saving energy
Here are some suggestions to help you reduce the environmental impact of your appliance:
Switch on the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and keep it running for a few minutes
after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of a large amount of smoke and vapour and use
higher speed only in extreme situations.
Replace the charcoal filter when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Replace the
grease filter when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Beware! Before performing any cleaning or maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical
supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse. Or if the appliance has been
connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket.
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly internally and externally (about once a month). Clean using
the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE
ALCOHOL!
WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and
replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.
