Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired cookers it is essential to avoid open flames. Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/cooker under careful control. The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating. The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty. It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire. Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood. Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off the automatic circuit breaker). It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause grease deposits to build up, resulting in a fire hazard. This appliance is marked according to the European directive 2002/96/ EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. The symbol on the product, or on the documents accompanying the product, indicates that this appliance may not be treated as household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal. For more detailed information about treatment, recovery and recycling of this product, please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product. 43 For the installer When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 120mm diameter hose (HE 3160: Ø 120-110mm). Attention: The hose is not supplied and must be purchased separately. When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring surfaces: electric cookers 600 mm gas cookers 700 mm If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to. The national standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 bar in such rooms. The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are installed. The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down by the relevant authorities. When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently large ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approximately the same as the outlet hole. National and regional building regulations impose a number of restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the same room. Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approximately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being created during operation of the hood. If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or building inspectors office. Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is outlet hole of the same size as the ventilation hole, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which 44 is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor hood. If the hood is used in its filtering function, it will operate simply and safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the aforementioned measures. The ducting must be fire retardant, 120mm in diameter and the length should be no more than: 3 metres with one 90 degree bend 2 metres with two 90 degree bends Bends of more than 90 degrees will reduce the efficiency of the hood and reduce the airflow. Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood. 45 Description of the Appliance The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not extract steam. In some models the charcoal filter is supplied. The hood, therefore, can be used immediately in the recirculation mode. We advise removing the charcoal filter to use the hood in the extraction mode. Extractor version In this version fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose. In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole. Recirculation Version The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen. You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation function. (Available from your local Service Force Centre). Insert the charcoal filter into the lugs of the frame above using the 2 red lugs E to retain it, press the red lugs inwards, and insert the charcoal filter in the frame. Fig. 1. E E E Fig. 1 46 Hood Operation Best results are obtained by using a low speed for normal conditions and high speed when odours are more concentrated. Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking then you will get an underpressure in the kitchen. It should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all odours have disappeared. The control switches are located on the units front panel: ON OFF Intensive speed Light switch Motor switch HE 3160 Motor switch Light switch The hood is also equipped with a micro-switch which can be found under the lower runner of the visor on the right hand side. With this micro-switch, the appliance may be automatically switched on and off by opening and closing the pull-out panel, but only if the fan speed has already been set and the light button is turned to I. 47 Maintenance and care The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any maintenance work. Cleaning the hood Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products. Never insert pointed objects in the motors protective grid. Wash the outside surfaces using a delicate detergent solution. Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders. Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grille using a damp cloth and delicate detergents. It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a fire hazard. Metal grease filter The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles which form during cooking and it must always be used, either in the external evacuation or internal recycling function. Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks. Open the metal grease filter To remove the grease filters, first pull the handles upwards, then extract the filter outwards. Fig. 2. Fig. 2 48 Hand washing Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a greaseloosening cleaner, then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. Dishwasher Place grease filters in the dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance. Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never use caustic detergents, abrasive powders or brushes). 49 Charcoal filter The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in the recirculation function. To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (available from your local Service Force Centre). Replacing the charcoal filter Type 150 This filter cannot be cleaned or reused. As a general rule, the activated charcoal filter should be changed once every 4 months. Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter Type 150 LONG LIFE Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated. At normal use the filter should be cleaned every second month (when using the hood 2,5 hours per day, on avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of 100ºC. After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced. Fitting the charcoal filter: Insert the charcoal filter into the lugs of the frame above using the 2 red lugs E to retain it, press the red lugs inwards, and insert the charcoal filter in the frame. Fig. 3. Removing: Press both red lugs E upwards (towards the inside of the housing) and remove the charcoal filter downwards. Fig. 3. Always specify the hood model code number and serial number when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the registration plate located on the inside of the unit. The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local Service Force Centre. E Fig. 3 50 E E Warning Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning the unit and changing the filters will cause a fire hazard. You are therefore strongly recommended to follow these instructions. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations. Changing the light bulb Disconnect the cooker hood from the main supply. Remove the grease filter/s or the grid. Replace the old bulb with a new one of the same type. Refit the grease filter/s or the grid. If the light does not come on, make sure the bulb has been inserted correctly before contacting your local Service Force Centre. 51 What to do if If your appliance fails to work properly please carry out the following checks.
