Check that: Check that:

Check that: The hood is connected

to the electricity supply.

Check that a fan speed has been

selected.

Check that: Check that:

Check that: The fan speed is set high

enough for the task.

The grease filters are clean.

The kitchen is adequately vented to

allow the entry of fresh air.

If set up for recirculation, check that

the charcoal filter is still effective.

If set up for extraction, check that the

ducting and outlets are not blocked.

The safety cut-out device has been

tripped. Turn off the hob and then wait

for the device to reset. If the hood has

been installed below the heights

indicated in the installation

instructions the motor will cut-out

frequently which will damage the

hood.

If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Centre,

quoting the model and serial number.

Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any in-

guarantee service calls.

In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks have been made

as the engineer will make a charge if the fault is not a mechanical or electrical

breakdown.
