o Before fixing the cooker hood into the kitchen unit, you should
connect the other end of the ducting hose to the coupling in the
top of the cooker hood.
Completing the installation
o If you are setting the appliance to recirculation mode, then you
should now fit the two carbon filters. See the “Fitting the carbon
filters” section on pages 14-16.
o The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical
requirement noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the
cooker hood. The appliance should now be connected to the
electrical supply. See page 17 for detailed information on the
electrical connection.
o Refit the grease filter and then switch on the mains
supply to the appliance. Check that the appliance is
operating correctly by selecting each speed and
switching the light bulbs on and off.
Extraction mode or recirculation mode?
IMPORTANT: YOU WILL HAVE TO DECIDE BEFORE
INSTALLING YOUR COOKER HOOD WHETHER TO USE
IT IN EXTRACTION MODE OR RECIRCULATION
MODE.
What is the difference between extraction and recirculation
modes?
In extraction mode, the stale air will be taken via the grease filter and
out of the room via external ducting.
In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and passed
through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then re-enters the
kitchen via an opening in the hood
.
For optimum performance, we recommend that the cooker hood is
used in extraction mode and connected to external ducting.
Unfortunately if you live in a flat or the hood is too far from an outside
wall, this may not be possible. The only alternative is to recirculate the
air.
