BOSCH DPH36652UC (01) PDF DOCUMENT

FOR GENERAL RESIDENTIAL KITCHEN VENTILATING USE ONLY. TO AVOID A FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD DO NOT USE TO EXHAUST HAZARDOUS OR EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS OR VAPOR.

For indoor use only.

When children become old enough to use the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

WARNING: Whenever possible, do not operate the blower during a cooktop fire. However, DO NOT REACH THROUGH FIRE TO TURN OFF BLOWER.

a) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b) Always turn the BOSCH DPH36652UC hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambeing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe’).

c) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter.

d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the surface element.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS, IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or the electric element. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – you may be burned.

c) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.

d) Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

1) You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

3) The fire department is being called.

4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

For best results with your BOSCH DPH36652UC:

• Continuous use of the fan system while cooking helps keep the kitchen comfortable and less humid.

• It also reduces cooking odors and soiling moisture that create a frequent need for cleaning.

• Turn the blower on before starting to cook.

• Use a rear burner when browning or pan frying meat.

• Open a window or inside door slightly.

• Clean the filters and the wall behind the filters frequently.

• The blower should be turned on for a few minutes before cooking in order to establish air currents upward through the hood. Thus when heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors are produced, they will be carried outside instead of drifting into other rooms.

• Use the low speeds for normal use and the higher speeds for strong odors or fumes.

• Drafts across the range or cooktop will cause the escape of heat, smoke, moisture, grease and cooking odors from the hood. Such drafts should be prevented in so far as possible.

• The best job of ventilation in the kitchen is done where the only air currents are those created by the blower itself.

For Gas Cooktops, a lower blower speed should be used if:

• the gas flame is being distorted by the air movement.

• the burner continually sparks (clicks).

• the burner flame repeatedly blows out.

The metal filters should be cleaned once a month, or as needed. To clean the filters:

• Drain and wipe all excess grease with a dry paper towel.

• Soak them and then swish them around in hot water and detergent. Don’t use ammonia or ammonia products because they will darken the metal.

• Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

• Rinse, shake and let them dry before replacing. They may also be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher.

To Remove The Metal Grease Filters:

• Turn the fan and lights off.

• Push each handle towards the back and pull downwards.

To Replace The Metal Grease Filters:

• Reverse the removal procedure.

CAUTION: Before you replace the lamps, switch power off at the service panel and lock the service panel disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.

NOTE: Turn off the lights and fan. Allow the lights to cool before handling. If new lights do not operate, be sure lights are inserted correctly before calling service.

To Replace Lights:

• Use a little flat blade screwdriver or similar tool as a lever to remove the pin that fixes the light shield to the body of the hood, and remove it carefully from its housing.

• Remove the damaged light (turn counter clockwise) and replace with a new 120 Volt, 40 Watt (maximum) olive shaped, made for a E14 base, suitable for use in open luminarie.

• Always use the mildest cleaner that will do the job. Use clean, soft cloths, sponges or paper towels.

• Rub stainless steel finishes in the direction of the grain. Wipe area dry to avoid water marks.

• After cleaning, place all parts in their proper positions before using.

The cleaners recommended below indicate a type and do not constitute an endorsement. Use all products according to package directions.

Surface Type	Cleaning Instructions
Anodized Aluminum surfaces	Top cap is not removable. Wash top and underside with hot sudsy water. Rinse and wipe dry or apply Fantastic® or Formula 409® first to a clean sponge or paper towel and wipe clean. DO NOT USE powdered cleansers or steel wool pads.
Aluminum Mesh Filters	Clean filters in the dishwasher or by agitating in sudsy water. Ensure that there is no soil trapped in the fine mesh. Dry the filters before reinstalling them.
Plastic surfaces	DO NOT REMOVE control knob. Wipe with a moist soapy sponge. Rinse and dry.
Painted surfaces	For general care, wipe the outside of the hood with sudsy water or household cleaners such as Fantastic or Formula 409, rinse well and dry with a clean soft cloth to avoid water marks. DO NOT USE powdered cleansers or steel wool pads.
Stainless Steel Surfaces	Wipe and dry stainless steel in the same direction as the grain. Avoid using too much pressure, which may mar the surface. To remove finger prints and give added shine, use cleaners such as Stainless Steel Magic. Do not allow any cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel for extended periods.

If the blower on your BOSCH DPH36652UC does not operate, check the following:

• Ensure that the electrical cord is properly connected and the supply circuit is energized.

• Check that the intake is fully raised.

• Make sure that the blower speed control knob is not in the OFF position.
