Whirlpool 968, Instructions For Use Manual

5019 318 33305

Electrical connection

The mains voltage must match that given on the rating plate 

located inside the hood. If  provided with a plug, connect the 

hood to a socket complying with the current regulations and 

located in an accessible area. If it does not have a plug (direct 

connection to the power supply) or if the plug is not in an 

accessible place, fit a suitable double-pole switch that ensures 

complete disconnection from the power supply in category III 

overvoltage conditions, complying with the installation rules.

WARNING: 

Before reconnecting the hood circuit to the 

power supply and checking correct operation, always make sure 

the power cable is correctly fitted and that it was NOT crushed 

in its housing during installation. Make sure to have this operation 

carried out by a specialised technician.

Cleaning the hood

WARNING!

 Failure to remove oil/grease (at least once a 

month) could result in fire.

Use a soft cloth with a neutral detergent. Never use abrasive 

substances or alcohol.

Before using the hood

Please read these instructions carefully and keep them for future 

reference, in order to ensure best use of your hood. 

The packing materials (plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) are a 

potential source of danger and must be kept out of the reach of 

children.

Make sure the hood has not been damaged during transport.
