Do not let small children play with
the appliance or its controls. Super-
vise its use by the elderly or infirm.
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood. To avoid the
danger of fire do not flambé or grill over
an open flame. When switched on the
cooker hood could draw flames into the
filters. Fat particles drawn into the
cooker hood present a fire hazard.
When using the cooker hood over
a gas hob ensure that any burners
in use are always covered by a pan.
Otherwise flames could be drawn up
by the suction of the cooker hood,
parts of which could then be damaged.
Always switch the cooker hood on
when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in
the hood, which could cause corrosion.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip
pans and deep fat fryers etc, do
not leave the pans unattended. Never
leave an open grill unattended when
grilling. Overheated oil and fat can ig-
nite and could set the cooker hood on
fire.
Do not use the cooker hood with-
out the grease filter in place.
This way you will avoid the risk of
grease and dirt getting into the ap-
pliance and hindering its smooth oper-
ation.
Clean or change the filter regularly.
An over-greasy filter is a fire ha-
zard.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this ap-
8
pliance. Pressurised steam could
reach the electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
The distance between the top of
the cooker/hob and the bottom of
the cooker hood must measure at least:
– 55 cm above electric cookers/hobs
– 65 cm above gas cookers/hobs
– 65 cm above an Open grill.
For other manufacturer's cooking ap-
pliances maintain the safety distance
as recommended in their Installation
and Operating instructions.
If more than one appliance is fitted be-
neath the cooker hood and they have
different minimum safety distances to
the cooker hood, select the higher dis-
tance.
Safety regulations prohibit the fit-
ting of a cooker hood over solid
fuel stoves.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable ma-
terial. These can be obtained from the
Spare Parts department or from buil-
ders' merchants.
The appliance must not be con-
nected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in use. Neither should it be
connected to ducting which ventilates
rooms with fireplaces.
If exhaust air is to be extracted into
a chimney or ventilation duct no
longer used for other purposes, take
professional advice.
