Cleaning and care

Always replace the filter immediately if


the lamp for the active charcoal filter
touch control comes on, or if it is no lon-
ger effective in absorbing kitchen
odours.
It should, however, be replaced at least
every 6 months.
^ After fitting a new active charcoal fil-
ter, press the active charcoal filter
touch control for approx. 3 seconds
to re-set the operating hours counter.
The indicator lamp will go out.
^ If an active charcoal filter is replaced
before the operating hours counter
has reached its maximum, the active
charcoal filter touch control should be
pressed for approx. 6 seconds to re-
set the counter to zero.

Installation

Installation instructions
See enclosed installation sheet for in-
structions on how to install this appli-
ance.
Before installation it is important to read
the information given on the following
pages as well as the "Appliance dimen-
sions" and "Warning and Safety instruc-
tions" at the beginning of this book.

Dismantling
Should the appliance ever need to be
dismantled, follow the installation in-
structions in reverse order as described
on the installation sheet.
A lever is supplied to assist with the re-
moval of the tower.

^ After loosening the fixing screws on


the tower push the lever between the
tower and the extension piece to le-
ver the tower out of its fixings.

must be of non-flammable material.
The extraction ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
To ensure efficient air extraction the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150 mm.

If exhaust ducting with a diameter of


less than 150 mm or flat ducting
were to be used, the noise level of
the cooker hood would increase and
extraction would be less efficient.

Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
hoses made from non-flammable ma-
terials for extraction connection.

29
Connection for air extraction
Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the prob-
lem of sweating or condensation will
need to be addressed. The exhaust
ducting will need to be suitably insu-
lated.

Condensate trap
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to col-
lect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.

When installing a condensate trap


ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the ex-
haust connection.
