How to use the hood

Fig. 2

The best results are obtained using low speed with

normal cooking and a higher speed in the case of

a particular concentration of fumes.

We advise switching the hood on a few minutes

before starting to cook so as to obtain a vacuum

in the kitchen and to leave it working at the end of

cooking for another 15 minutes until all fumes and

odours have disappeared. The commands are on

the front panel of the hood.

indicator (LED)

E Intensive speed indicator

F Intensive speed key (LED). Intensive speed

lasts 5 minutes. If the hood is working when

intensive speed is started, it will return to the

previously set speed once the time has passed

(5 minutes). If the hood is off when intensive

speed is started, it switches off automatically at

the time limit (5 minutes). It is, for example,

opportune to use intensive speed to evacuate

odours after finishing cooking.

H Illumination OFF key.

I Illumination ON key.

If the hood or the commands are not working,

disconnect the electricity supply for at least 5

minutes and start the apparatus again.

The aspiration hood is equipped with

a device that signals when the anti-fat

or active carbon filter (recirculation

with carbon filter version) needs

cleaning.

The hood is delivered from the factory without the

carbon filter and therefore the LED that signals

filter saturation is inactive.

Activate the LED as indicated below if the hood

has to be used with the carbon filter:

Press keys B and G simultaneously for three

seconds. The D anti-fat filter LED lights up and

then the E carbon filter LED as well. The LED

that signals the saturation of the active carbon filter

has been activated.

Deactivation. Press keys B and G simultaneously

for three seconds until the E carbon filter LED

switches off.

The D LED begins to flash when the anti-fat filter

needs to be washed.

The anti-fat filter must be changed after about 40

hours of use. Follow the instructions for changing

the anti-fat filter.

The E LED begins to flash when the active carbon

filter must be changed.

The anti-fat filter must be changed after about 160

hours of use. Follow the instructions for changing

the active carbon filter.

After having carried out maintenance on the filter,

keep key A held for 3 seconds until the LED of

the anti-fat filter D or the LED of the carbon filter

E stops flashing

Attention! Restoring the saturation indicators

MUST be carried out with the hood set in Stand-

by and therefore without disconnecting the hood

from the power supply.

A vacuum must be created in the kitchen for the

correct functioning of the hood.

It is important to keep the kitchen windows

closed and have a window open in an adjacent

room.

If the hood is used together, for example, with an

open fireplace that takes air from inside the house,

a draught might occur that could bring fumes into

the room. Open a window.

This does not concern the active carbon filter

version.
