Please read all safety instructions before use to avoid injury or damage. Keep this user guide for future reference.

• Young children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the product.

• This product is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless supervised by someone responsible for their safety.

• Always switch off the rangehood before performing any maintenance to prevent electric shock.

• Never carry out flambe cooking under the rangehood.

• Do not use the rangehood above barbecues.

• This product is not designed for outdoor or external installation.

• Grease filters must be removed and cleaned at least every four weeks to reduce the risk of fire.

• Do not discharge exhaust air into a heating flue that may carry combustion products from other sources.

• Do not discharge exhaust air into a wall cavity unless it is specifically designed for that purpose.

• Ensure adequate room ventilation when using the rangehood alongside gas or fuel-burning appliances.

• Always cover lit gas burners with pots or pans when the rangehood is in use.

• Always turn off gas burners before removing pots or pans.

• Do not leave lit gas burners exposed beneath the rangehood due to fire risk.

• This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as staff kitchen areas, farm houses, hotels, motels, and bed and breakfast environments.

• Before connecting to the mains supply, check that the voltage matches the rating label inside the rangehood.

• Installation must comply with local building and electrical regulations. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person to avoid a hazard.

• All electrical wiring must only be performed by a licensed professional in accordance with relevant electrical codes and standards.

• Before installation, turn off power at the main switch to prevent electrical hazards.

• Only use the original power plug and cord supplied with the appliance. Do not use extension cords or alternative power sources.

• Minimum clearance from the cooktop to the rangehood must be maintained, as specified in the installation diagrams. The distance must be at least 650mm above electric burners or 750mm above gas or mixed-fuel burners.

• If you are not confident with the installation, consult a qualified trade professional.

• In some installations, the telescopic exhaust cover may need to be cut to length. Use sharp tin snips or a fine-tooth hacksaw blade, taking care not to distort or dent the exhaust cover.

To ensure optimal air extraction, follow these guidelines:

• Keep the exhaust duct short and straight.

• Do not reduce or restrict the duct diameter.

• Minimise the number of bends in the duct.

• If using flexible ducting, install it with the helix fully extended to reduce pressure loss.

• Failure to follow these guidelines will reduce performance and increase noise levels.

• Exhaust air must not be discharged into a wall cavity or heating flue unless specifically designed for that purpose.

Before installation, ensure the location complies with the following dimensions:

Clearance from Cooktop:

• Minimum 650mm above electric burners.

• Minimum 750mm above gas or mixed-fuel burners.

Cabinet Dimensions (Front View):

• Mounting Surface Width: >852mm

• Unit Width: 898mm

1. Drill a Ø140mm diameter hole for the exhaust outlet. Also, drill 4 Ø8mm mounting holes and an opening for the power cord, according to the dimensions specified for the 90cm model (distance between mounting holes is 780mm).

2. Insert the 4 mounting screws with the four mounting gaskets (washers) to secure the hood to the cabinet.

The hood can be installed in either the filtering version or the ducting version. Refer to the diagrams in the user guide for the correct positioning of the circulation air door for each version.

In the ducting version, the hood extracts air from the kitchen that is saturated with fumes and odours. The air passes through the grease filters and is expelled outside through an outlet pipe (not supplied). Charcoal filters are not required in this version. For optimal performance, it is recommended to use the ducting version if possible.

Note: The recycling cover must be installed on the hood body when using the ducting version.

In the filtering version, the hood draws in kitchen air saturated with fumes and odours. The air is purified through grease filters and charcoal filters, then recirculated back into the room as clean air. To maintain performance, the charcoal filters must be replaced periodically.

Notes:

• Charcoal filters must be used in the filtering version.

• The recycling cover must be removed in the filtering version.

• The outlet cover must be installed on the hood body in the filtering version.

The rangehood has two main switches:

Fan Switch:

• Up: Low speed

• Middle: On/Off

• Down: High speed

Light Switch:

• This switch turns the light on and off.

Always disconnect the product from the power supply before performing any maintenance.

• Clean the exterior of the rangehood with a damp cloth and a solution of water and mild detergent.

• Do not use corrosive, abrasive, flammable cleaners, or products that contain bleach.

• Never insert sharp or pointed objects into the motor’s protective grille.

• Only clean the filters with a damp cloth and mild detergent.

• It is essential to clean the unit and replace the charcoal filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so may result in grease build-up, posing a fire hazard.

The mesh filters should be cleaned every 3 weeks. They are designed to capture grease particles and must always be used.

To remove the metal grease filters:

1. Pull down the latch on the filter.

2. Remove the filter from the hood body.

1. Remove the lamp cover.

2. Turn the bulb anticlockwise to loosen and remove it.

3. Replace it with a 2W E14 LED bulb.

Charcoal filters are only for filtering (recirculating) mode and should be replaced every 3 months. They cannot be cleaned or reused.

1. Ensure the rangehood is switched off and disconnected from the power supply before starting.

2. Slide out the front panel.

3. Remove the mesh filters.

4. Pull down the latch and remove the filters to expose the internal fan/motor housing.

5. Locate and remove old charcoal filters. They are usually mounted on either side of the motor casing or directly clipped to the fan housing.

6. Twist them counterclockwise or unclip them depending on the fixing type.

7. Align the new charcoal filters with the fan housing.

8. Secure by twisting clockwise or snapping them into place until firmly fixed.

Note: This product is fitted with a safety cutout device. If the rangehood is installed too close to the cooker top, flambe cooking, operating the cooktop without cooking utensils and blocked filters may activate the safety cutout device. If the hood stops during operation, correct the faults and allow time for the safety cutout device to reset. Then the rangehood will function correctly.
