USE OF THE ELECTRONIC PUSH BUTTON CONTROL PANEL
If required, the hood can be manually controlled by using the keyboard on the hood struc-
ture.
Timer/Filters alarm
Pressing the key with the motor active at any speed activates the Timer func-
tion: this function determines the auto switch-off of the hood after 15 min-
utes of operation. Activation of the function is signalled by a RED flashing
light.
With the Timer function active, the hood can still be switched off by the user at
any time by pressing the key
and the RED light will turn off. Should the speed be changed with the Timer
function active, the latter will be automatically disabled.
Mode button (ON/OFF)
Pressing the key switches on (or off ) the hood motor: it starts at the previously
selected speed prior to switching it off (desired speed function). Should you
wish to use a different speed, set if by using the + and - keys.
Button +
By pressing the key, the motor speed increases. Speeds 1, 2 and 3 are displayed
by the number of LEDs switched on, excluding the light and timer LEDs.
The + key in the version with 4 speeds has an intermittent light: the 4th speed
or intensity is timed and after approximately 7 minutes the motor automati-
cally switches to 3rd speed.
Button -
By pressing the key, the motor speed reduces. Speeds 1, 2 and 3 are displayed
by the number of LEDs switched on, excluding the light and timer LEDs.
Light button
ON: light on (lit button) OFF: light off
MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the
equipment by removing the plug or switching off the main switch.
Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and good performance over time.
Special attention is to be paid to the metal anti-grease filters. In fact, frequent cleaning of
the filters and their supports helps ensure that no grease accumulates on the hood, which is
dangerous and can cause fires.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood at least once every 15 days to
prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them.
Do not use too much water next to the push button control panel and
lighting devices in order to prevent humidity from reaching electronic
parts.
You must not use detergents containing abrasive, acid or corrosive sub-
stances or abrasive cloths: a direct consequence of not complying with these warn-
ings will result in irreversible deterioration of the hood's surface.
The glass panels can only be cleaned with specific, non-corrosive or non-abrasive detergents
using a soft cloth.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these instructions.
CLEANING THE BRUSHED STAINLESS STEEL HOOD VERSION
To clean the brushed stainless steel hood, the Manufacturer recommends using "Magic Steel"
wipes. Alternatively, it can be cleaned using a damp cloth, slightly moistened with neutral,
liquid detergent or denatured alcohol. Finish off cleaning by rinsing well and drying with
soft cloths.
CLEANING THE WHITE FINISH STEEL HOOD
To clean the hood, use water and neutral soap and a soft cloth.
Finish off cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths.
: the function will be automatically disabled
CLEANING OF INTERNAL PARTS
It is forbidden to clean electrical parts, or parts related to the motor inside the
hood, with liquids or solvents.
Do not use abrasive products.
All these operations are to be carried out after having disconnected the
equipment from the electrical mains power supply.
METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
The metal anti-grease filters are there to contain suspended
grease particles: deposited on the filters, these feed on any
flames released when cooking, generate unpleasant
odours, and compromise the passage of air, thus reducing
suction performance of the hood.
For this reason, it is advised to frequently wash the metal
filters (at least once a month) leaving them to soak in boil-
ing water and dish washing liquid for 1 hour, taking care
not to bend them. Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline
detergents.
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted, however, it may cause the filter material to darken: to
reduce the possibility of this problem from happening, use low-temperature washes (55°C
max.).
Open the external suction panel to remove the metal anti-grease filters (refer to
T
the instructions on page 20), then operate the handle (refer to the instruc-
U
tions on page 20). Carry out operations in reverse order to insert them.
