Safety in Use
Never use open flames beneath the cooker hood under any circumstances. There is a risk of flames
being drawn into the appliance causing damage to the appliance or its filters and fats or oils residing
in the filters may present a fire hazard.
Do not use cooker or hob rings without pans and when cooking has finished, ensure that the rings are
turned off to prevent overheating to the extractor hood. Always switch the cooker hood on when
cooking.
Do not touch the lamps during use as these can get hot.
Never leave pans or fryers unattended. Never leave an open grill unattended as overheated oil and
fat could set the cooker hood on fire. Do not use the cooker hood without the grease filters in place.
Ensure that filters are changed as appropriate.
