KITCHEN HOODS

INSTRUCTIONS ON THE USE OF  

THE KITCHEN HOOD

 The kitchen hood is to be used for extraction of 

smells from the kitchen. It may work in two modes 

depending on the method of its installation:

—  mode of air removal into the air shaft;

—  recirculation mode.

In the mode of air removal into the air shaft (see 

Fig. 4), the kitchen hood is connected to the air 

shaft with the help of a corrugated hose or a plas-

tic air conduit. Thus, all the evaporations from the 

kitchen, smells, char and soot pas through reus-

able aluminum grease trap filters and are removed 

outside the premises. With this working mode, it is 

not necessary to install charcoal acrylic scent-trap 

filters. Extraction mode is the most efficient as the 

kitchen hood removes all the evaporations from 

the kitchen to the air shaft.

In the recirculation mode (see Fig. 5), the kitchen 

hood is not connected to the air shaft, and thus the 

air is just passed through the kitchen hood inside 

the kitchen.

In this mode, charcoal acrylic disposable scent-

trap filters should be installed on the kitchen hood. 

These filters are not included in the set and are 

bought separately. The use of the kitchen hood in 

the recirculation mode reduces its productivity.
We recommend using the kitchen hood in the 

mode of air extraction to the air shaft.

KITCHEN HOOD MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the power supply before you 

start any operation related to cleaning or re-

pair of the kitchen hood.

To clean the painted exterior of the kitchen hood, 

use a piece of cloth wet with warm water and a neu-

tral cleaning agent. To clean exterior surfaces made 

of steel, copper and brass, use special agents and 

follow corresponding instrucitons. Never use chlo-

rine- or acid-containing agents, abrasive materials 

or sponges that may scratch the surface. 

The alu grease filter clogs up with grease particles 

and penetrating air dust. To clean it, do not use 

acid-containing agents; wash it upon preliminary 

soaking in hot water, using an effective cleaning 

agent or, if possible, use a dish-washing machine 

(at a temperature of 65 °C). 

Do not wash heavily polluted grease filters with 

dishes. The grease filter cleaning should be simul-

taneously done with removal of grease deposits on 

any accessible elements of the kitchen hood body. 

The alu filter removal is shown in Figure 6. To re-

move the filter, first open the hinged panel, lift the 

spring lock handle, pull it to remove the filter.

Mount the filter after it has completely dried out. 

The filter shall be mounted in the reversed order. 

Press and spring lock on the filter, mount it in its 

position and release the spring lock.

Mounting coal filters

Coal filters are mounted upon protecting grids of 

the kitchen hood motor case that is beneath the 

grease filter. To mount the filter, slightly push that 

against the grid of the motor case and turn it clock-

wise, until it is engaged on the grid (Fig. 7). To re-

move the filter, slightly push that against the grid 

and turn it counterclockwise until it is disengaged.

Replacing the backlight lamps

To replace the backlight lamp (Fig.9), it is necessary
