Safety warnings  
optimal operation:  
— short and straight outlet hose  
For the installer  
• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must  
be fitted with a 150mm diameter hose.  
Attention: The hose is not supplied and  
must be purchased separately.  
• When installing the hood observe the  
following minimum distances from the  
cooking top:  
— keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum  
— never install the hoses with an acute angle,  
they must always follow a gentle curve.  
— keep the hose as large as possible  
(preferably the same diameter as the outlet  
hole).  
— the length should be no more than:  
electric cookers  
gas cookers  
The hood can be installed above these heights  
but for optimum performance it should be  
installed at the distance quoted for the  
appropriate heat source.  
500 mm  
700 mm  
3 metres with one 90° bend  
2 metres with two 90° bends  
Bends of more than 90° 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.  
• The national Standard on fuel-burning systems  
specifies a maximum depression of 0.04 mbar 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 local  
authorities.  
• When the unit is used in extraction mode, a  
sufficiently large ventilation hole must be  
provided, with dimensions that are approxi-  
mately 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 approxi-  
mately 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 inspector’s  
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  
is to say a larger hole, could reduce the perfor-  
mance of the extractor hood.  
• If the hood is used in its recirculation mode, it  
will operate simply and safely in the above  
conditions without the need for any of the  
aforementioned measures.  
• When the hood is used in its extraction mode,  
the following rules must be followed to obtain

For the user  
• The cooker hood is designed to extract  
unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will not  
extract steam.  
• 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.  
• The appliance is not intended for use by young  
children or infirm persons without supervision.  
• Older children must be supervised if using the  
appliance.  
• Young children should be supervised to ensure  
that they do not play with the appliance.  
WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is  
switched off before replacing the lamp to avoid  
the possibility of electric shock.

Description of the appliance  
The cooker hood is designed to extract  
unpleasant odours from the kitchen, it will  
not extract steam.  
• The hood is supplied as a recirculator unit and  
can also be used in extraction mode by not  
installing/using the charcoal filters.  
A
Attention! The charcoal filters are attached to one  
side of the polystyrene protection panels in the  
packaging and should be fitted into place prior to  
using the cooker hood in the recirculation mode.  
Extraction mode  
• In this mode fumes are extracted to the outside  
Fig. 1  
via a hose connected to the coupling ring A.  
Fig. 1.  
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose  
should have a diameter equal to the outlet hole.  
Recirculation mode  
• The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and  
returned to the kitchen.  
• You will need an original charcoal filter for the  
recirculation mode. (See Special Accessories).  
Control Panel  
• Best results are obtained by using a low speed  
for normal conditions and a high speed when  
odours are more concentrated.  
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start  
cooking.  
The hood should be left on after cooking for  
about 15 minutes or until all the odours have  
disappeared. The control switches are located  
on the unit bottom.

If the cooker hood is to work correctly there must  
be an under pressure in the kitchen. It is important  
to keep the kitchen windows closed and have a  
window in an adjacent room open.

Maintenance and care  
The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before beginning any  
maintenance work.  
Warning  
Cleaning the hood  
• Failure to observe the instructions on cleaning  
the unit and changing the filters will cause a fire  
hazard. You are therefore strongly  
• Clean the outside of the hood using a damp  
cloth and a solution of water and mild washing  
up liquid.  
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.  
• Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable  
cleaning products or products containing bleach.  
• Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s  
protective grid.  
• Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill  
using a damp cloth and mild washing up liquid.  
• 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 absorb  
grease particles which form during cooking and  
it must always be used, either in the external  
extraction or internal re-circulation function.  
Attention: the metal grease filters must be  
removed and washed, either by hand or in the  
dishwasher, every four weeks.  
Removing the metal grease  
filters  
• Push it towards the back of the unit and then  
pull it down and out.Fig. 3.  
Hand washing  
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot  
water with a grease-loosening cleaner, then  
rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the  
process if necessary. Refit the grease filters  
when they are dry.  
Fig. 3  
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 hand hot  
solution only(never use caustic detergents,  
abrasive powders or brushes).

Charcoal filter  
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you  
want to use the hood in recirculation mode.  
• To do this you will need an original charcoal  
filter (available from your local Service Force  
Centre).  
Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter  
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE  
charcoal filter can be cleaned and reactivated.  
With 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 tempera-  
ture (65º C). Wash the filter separately so  
that no food particles get 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 100º C.
