The hood is connected to the mains with a voltage of 220-240 V ~, 50 Hz. To avoid
electric shock, the hood must be plugged into a grounded socket. This product belongs
to class 1 protection against electric shock. Do not use light bulbs whose power rating
exceeds that specified in the hood specifications, as bulbs with higher wattages can
cause various damage to the electrical circuit. Operation of the hood without an
aluminium grease trap is prohibited. When using the hood at the same time with other
heating devices (gas, oil, coal stoves, etc.), in addition to electric, you may need
additional ventilation.
Air passing through the hood and released into the atmosphere should only be vented to
a separate kitchen ventilation shaft and should not enter the chimney or other duct used
to remove smoke from other devices.
When installing the hood to remove air into the ventilation shaft, do not use an air duct
with a smaller diameter than specified in the operating instructions. This can create
additional resistance to the exhaust air and increase noise and vibration, as well as
overheating of the engine.
The hood must be installed above the electric hobs at a height of at least 65 cm, and
above the gas burners - at least 75 cm.
Switch off the mains voltage before carrying out any operation to clean or repair the
hood.
According to these instructions, ensure timely washing of reusable aluminium grease
traps. Unwashed filters reduce the efficiency of the hood and can cause a fire due to the
accumulation of oil and dust.
Do not sterilize food with an open flame directly under the hood. This can ignite the
crude aluminium grease trap.
Do not leave hot oil inside the pan on the stove. Overheated fat and oil ignite easily,
which can cause the ignition of the crude aluminium grease trap. The flame of the gas
burners must always be covered with utensils. Strong heat from the flame of gas burners
can damage the hood.
Do not turn on the hood to reduce smoke caused by an outbreak in the apartment. The
included extractor will create additional draft for fire. In case of any ignition, disconnect
the hood from the mains, cover the flame with a dense material that will prevent access
of oxygen to the flame; never use water for extinguishing.
