ILVE CH900X, Instruction Manual

INSTALLATION

2. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

This equipment must be connected to a grounding plant. 

Two types of electrical connection can be used:
1. Using a standard plug to be connected to the power 

cable and inserted in a mains socket which must be 

accessible (so that the plug can be disconnected when 

servicing is carried out). Make sure that the plug is 

accessible also after the complete installation of the 

equipment.
2. By means of a fixed mains connection, fitting a 

bipolar switch, which ensures the disconnection, with an 

opening distance of the contacts allowing a complete 

disconnection on the conditions of the over voltage III 

category, according to installation regulations. The ground 

connection (yellow-green wire) must not be interrupted.
Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage 

and frequency ratings.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the 

manufacturer or by its service agent or a qualified person 

in order to avoid any risk.

For stationary appliances permanently connected to 

the fixed wiring, compliance with this requirement is 

considered to be met if the instruction concerning 

disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring is in 

accordance with AS/NZS 3000

Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage 

and frequency ratings.

3. OPERATION

The hood is supplied with a multi speed motor.
The hood should be run at low speed under normal 

conditions and at higher speeds only when there is a 

heavy build-up of fumes or odour. Ideally, the hood should 

be switched on as soon as cooking is started and then 

kept on until all odour have been eliminated.

REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

When turned on, the engine is positioned at the second 

speed. The motor speed is indicated by the lighting of 

the respective green LED (ref. pos. 1-2-3-4). At the fourth 

speed (intensive, ref. pos. 4), the LED flashes and after 5 

minutes the motor returns to the third speed automatically.

REMOTE CONTROL ENCODING

The supplied remote control is already encoded and can 

be used from the beginning for the total control of the 

hood.
To encode another remote control, hold the button “P” on 

the hood for 4 seconds until the programming red LED 

lights up, at this point press immediately after the On / Off 

aspirator.
When the red LED turns off, the programming is closed 

and you cannot no longer program the remote control.

SAFETY SWITCH

In case the remote control is lost or out of batteries, the 

appliance shall be switched off pushing the “P” button.

RESTORING FACTORY CONDITIONS (RESET)

Hold down the “P” button until the red LED lights up and 

continue to press the button without releasing until the 

LED turns off by itself. At this point no remote control will 

be coupled and it will be necessary to pair one again.

GREASE FILTER MAINTENANCE WARNING

The electronic control report, after 100 hours of operation, 

with the flashing of the LEDs, for 30 seconds at shutdown 

of the hood, the need for cleaning of the grease filters. 

To reset the counter, after cleaning the filters, while the 

flashing warning press the “+” on the remote control until 

shutdown.

5. MAINTENANCE AND REMINDERS

Always disconnect the hood from the mains before 

carrying out any maintenance or cleaning operation.
Particular attention should be paid to the metallic anti-

grease filters that are designed to trap particles of fat 

contained in the fumes. The metallic anti-grease filters 

must be washed at least once a month with detergent in 

hot water (or in the dish-washer). The filters may dis-colour 

after a few washes. This is normal and does not mean 

they have to be replaced. To remove the metallic anti-

grease filters, open the bottom panel of the hood and then 

remove the filter by the handle. Fig. 17.

ATTENTION: 

•  the grease collected in the filter can easily catch fire 

and it is therefore extremely important to clean the metallic 

filter on a regular basis as per instructions. Grease filters 

are removed as illustrated (Fig. 5).
•  Do not flambé under the range hood
•  Caution; accessible parts may become hot when used 

with cooking appliances.
•  Never leave the hob unattended when frying, as oil or 

fat can catch fire.

The activated charcoal filters, if present, are designed to 

collect unpleasant odour in the cooking fumes. The air is
