After connecting the device to the power supply network (in accordance with
the requirements defined above) it is necessary to check the lighting of the hood and
whether its motor works correctly.
The wall socket shall be accessible for disconnecting the plug after the hood
is installed.
3. Setting the operation mode of the kitchen extractor hood
3.1 Setting the air extractor mode of operation of the hood
In the extractor mode air is discharged to the outside by a special conduit. In
that setting any carbon filters shall be removed. The hood should be connected to the
opening discharging air to the outside by means of a rigid or flexible conduit of 120
mm diameter, which should be purchased in a shop selling installation materials.
A qualified installer should be commissioned to make the connection.
3.2 Setting the odour absorber mode of operation of the hood
In this option filtered air returns to the room through openings in the front of
the hood. In this setting it is necessary to install the carbon filter (Fig. 6).
VI. Operation and maintenance
1. Operational safety.
All safety instructions included in chapter IV must be observed. Textile grease
filters and carbon filters should be replaced and aluminium filter should be cleaned
according to manufacturer’s instructions, or more frequently in periods of intensive
use (more than 4 hours a day). If a gas cooker is used it is forbidden to leave
uncovered flame. When removing pots from gas burners set the flame to its minimum
level. Always make sure that flame does not extend outside the pot. Such a situation
causes undesired energy losses and dangerous heat build-ups. The hood should not be
used for other purposes than those for which it was designed.
2. Operation. Control panel.
Operation of the hood can be
controlled by means of switches „W”
and „O” (Fig. 4):
- switch „O” controls lighting. Shifting
the switch to the left turns the lighting
on, to the right - turns the lighting off.
- switch „W” is used to control the hood motor. Successive shifts to the left turn on
three fan operation speeds. These control options enable the user to set the optimum
fan speed for his requirements at minimum noise.
