AMICA OKP6321T (01) PDF SUMMARY:
What does this kitchen extractor hood do?
The cooker hood is designed to remove cooking odors. The hood also features independent lighting and an exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds.
What should I do before using the appliance?
Before using the appliance, please carefully read this manual.
What are the different modes of operation for the cooker hood?
The cooker hood can operate in extraction mode or air recirculation mode.
How does the extraction mode work?
In the extractor mode, air is discharged to the outside by a special conduit. In this setting, any carbon filters should be removed. The hood should be connected to the opening discharging air to the outside using a rigid or flexible conduit of 120 mm diameter. The duct length should not exceed 4-5m. A qualified installer should make the connection.
How does the air recirculation mode work?
In the air recirculation mode, filtered air returns to the room through openings in the front of the hood. In this setting, it is necessary to install the carbon filter. It is recommended to install an air guide vane (chimney cooker hoods only). For some universal hoods, you may need to switch a lever inside the hood to switch between extraction and air recirculation modes. Furniture and telescopic cooker hoods operating in air recirculation mode require installation of the exhaust duct. The other end of the duct should be directed to the room as it will discharge filtered air.
What is required for a cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode?
A cooker hood operating in air recirculation mode requires the installation of an activated charcoal filter.
What does the cooker hood feature?
The cooker hood features independent lighting and an exhaust fan that can be operated at one of several speeds.
Where can cooker hoods be installed?
Depending on the type, the hood is designed to be permanently attached to a vertical wall over a gas or electric stove (chimney and universal hoods); on the ceiling over a gas or electric stove (island hoods); or on the vertical built-in furniture over a gas or electric stove (telescopic and built-in hoods).
What should I consider before installing a cooker hood?
Before installing, make sure that the wall/ceiling structure is strong enough to suspend the hood. Some hoods are very heavy.
What should I do if the gas cooker installation instructions specify a greater distance than the product technical sheet for the hood installation?
If the installation instructions of the gas cooker specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account when installing the hood.
What should I avoid doing with an open flame while using the hood?
Do not leave an open flame under the hood. When the pots are removed from the burner, set the minimum flame. Always make sure that the flame does not extend outside the pot.
How should I monitor food cooked in fat?
Any food cooked in fat should be constantly monitored, since overheated fat can ignite very easily.
What should I do before cleaning or repairing the filters?
Pull the plug of the power cord from a wall socket before any filter cleaning or repair operation.
How often should I clean or replace the filters?

What should I do if other non-electric devices are used in the same room as the hood?
If any other non-electric devices are used in the same room as the hood (e.g. liquid fuel ovens, flow-through or volumetric water heaters), it is necessary to provide appropriate ventilation (air supply).
How often should the hood be cleaned?
The hood should be frequently cleaned inside and on the outside surfaces (at least once a month).
What should I do if the power wire gets broken?
If the power wire gets broken, it should be replaced with a new one in a specialist repair shop.
How can I easily disconnect the appliance from the mains?

The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited.
What should I do regarding the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging?
It is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities with regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging.
What should I do if the screws or fixing device is not installed in accordance with the instructions?
Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
How do I set the air extractor mode of operation?
In the extractor mode, air is discharged to the outside by a special conduit. In that setting, any carbon filters shall be removed. The hood should be connected to the opening discharging air to the outside by means of a rigid or flexible conduit of 120 mm diameter, which should be purchased in a shop selling installation materials. A qualified installer should be commissioned to make the connection.
How do I set the odor absorber mode of operation?
In this option, filtered air returns to the room through openings in the front of the hood. In this setting, it is necessary to install the carbon filter. It is recommended to install the air guide (availability depending on model).
How do I switch between the extraction and air recirculation modes in some universal hoods?
In some universal hoods you need to switch lever inside the hood to switch between the extraction and air recirculation modes.
