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 cooker hood is fitted with a sensor which, in the event of extreme variations

in temperature, switches the appliance on automatically until the temperature of

the environment surrounding the hood has been significantly reduced.

• The control switches are located on the unit’s front panel:

and mild washing up liquid.

• 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

Something Not Working

If your appliance fails to work properly please carry out the following checks.

SymptomSymptom

Symptom

The cooker hood will not start...

The cooker hood is not working

The cooker hood has switched off

during operation...

SolutionSolution

Solution

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 number, serial number and product number code.

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 break-

down.
