Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT : DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OF THE
EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
Cleaning
You should use a nonabrasive cleaner. Any abrasive cleaner (including Cif) will
scratch the surface and could erase the control panel markings.
You can clean your extractor effectively by simply using a dilute solution of water
and mild detergent and drying to a shine with a clean cloth.
Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filter should be kept clean to minimise the risk of fire.
When the display flashes alternating the speed selected with the letter A, or
at least once a month you should remove and clean the grease filter with hot
soapy water. You can also wash the grease filter in a dishwasher, ensuring that
you place it in an upright position to prevent damage from other items in the
dishwasher. After rinsing and drying, replace the filter. After the grease filter
has been replaced, the electronic memory must be reset by touching key A for
approximately five seconds, until the letter A stops flashing.
Fig. 2
To remove the grease filter pull open the handle on the grease filter as shown in
fig. 2. It will release at the handle side. Then lower the grease filter to remove it
completely.
To replace the grease filter, repeat the steps in reverse.
Please note:
Cleaning the grease filter in the dishwasher may lead to discolouration. This is
normal and does not constitute a fault with the appliance.
Fig. 3
Changing the charcoal filter (re-circulating only)
When the display flashes alternating the speed selected with the letter F, the
charcoal filters must be replaced. After the charcoal filter has been replaced,
the electronic memory must be reset by touching key A for approximately five
seconds, until the letter F stops flashing.
To attach a new charcoal filter, first remove the grease filters as described above.
Then offer up the charcoal filter to the side of the motor as shown in figure 3 and
turn it clockwise until it locks into place. Repeat with the other charcoal filter on
the other side of the motor. Then replace the grease filters and cover panels.

Changing the Light
IMPORTANT: DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OF THE EXTRACTOR WITHOUT FIRST
SWITCHING OFF THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY.
DO NOT CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE AS THE BULB WILL BE HOT. ALLOW IT TO
COOL BEFORE REMOVING IT.
Press the glass surround at the ‘Push’ point indicated. Carefully push the cover open, noting that it is hinged towards the
wall, and remove the old bulb. Refit the new bulb taking care not to touch the glass of the bulb (Fingerprints will lead to
premature failure of the bulb)
Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas during or straight after prolonged use of the lights.
The light is designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended use of the light can reduce
the life span of the bulb.
Bulb replacement is not covered by the guarantee.
Only use bulbs recommended for your extractor. Do not fit bulbs of a higher power rating.
Bulbs of a lower power rating may be adequate for use, generally last longer and use less energy.

Mains Electricity Connection
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE MAINS SUPPLY BY A COMPETENT PERSON, USING FIXED
WIRING VIA A DOUBLE POLE SWITCHED FUSED SPUR OUTLET AND PROTECTED BY A 3A FUSE.
We recommend that the appliance is connected by a qualified electrician, who is a member of the N.I.C.E.I.C. and who will
comply with the I.E.E. and local regulations.
DOUBLE POLE SWITCHED
The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the
FUSED SPUR OUTLET
following code:
BLUE = NEUTRAL, BROWN = LIVE.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead for the appliance may not correspond
with the coloured markings identifying the terminals connecting to the fused spur,
proceed as follows:
•
•
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal marked N
(Neutral), or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked
L (Live), or coloured red.
USE A 3 AMP FUSE
NOTE: USE A 3A FUSE
Assembly and electrical connection should be carried out by competent personnel.
When installing this product we recommend you seek the help of another individual.
IMPORTANT: THIS APPLIANCE IS A CLASS II APPLIANCE (DOUBLE INSULATED) AND IS NOT INTENDED TO
BE EARTHED. DO NOT FIT AN EARTH LEAD TO THIS EXTRACTOR.
Do not mount the isolation switch behind the chimney section. It is a requirement that you must be able to isolate the
extractor from the mains electrical supply after installation.
This appliance is intended to be connected to the mains electrical supply by means of an isolation switch and fused spur
and is intended to be protected by a 3A fuse. The use of a 13A fuse can cause damage to the internal wiring in the event
of a fault, and may also invalidate the warranty.
Electrical Information
Mains electrical voltage: 230 – 240Vac, 50Hz
Total rated power consumption:
290W
Troubleshooting
If your extractor is not working:
1.
Check that the mains supply has not been switched off.
2. Check that the fuse in the spur has not blown.

Installation
Your extractor can be used to filter and recycle the air within
your kitchen, or to extract the air outside. When extracting air
to the outside, the unit can be vented as shown in the diagram
below. Note that we recommend the use of ducting with a
diameter of 150mm. Ducting with diameters of 100mm or
120mm may be used, but performance will be reduced.
When installing this appliance over a CDA hob, the clearance
between the extractor and the hob must be equal to or
exceed 650mm. This instruction overrides the instructions
supplied with the CDA hob. (The height should be measured
from the top of the hotplates or burners)
Where the extractor is to be installed above a non-CDA hob,
the instructions supplied with the hob may dictate that the
height required above the hob is greater than 650mm.
Fig. 4
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED
WITH THE HOB, THE MINIMUM DISTANCE BETWEEN
THE HOB AND EXTRACTOR MUST BE AT LEAST 760mm
Fitting your extractor to the wall:
Before commencing, remove both the grease filters.

Installation
The extractor is mounted using five screws. Ensure that the
wall fixings and screws are suitable for the wall material.
Mark the positions of the five holes on the wall, according
to (fig 6).
Insert five wall plugs into the holes A and B (fig. 7) and fix
four screws into holes A corresponding to the keyholed
positions on the extractor so that they are protruding from
the wall by approximately 5mm.
Next lift the hood onto the screws as shown in figure 7. At
this point the extractor can be aligned level.
Secure the screws and fix the hood into position, using the
fifth screw (B) to prevent any movement.

Using the extractor as an
extraction device
Feed the duct pipe through the top cover and fix it to the
duct adapter ring. Connect the ring to the extractor and refit
the top cover panel as shown in figure 14. Note that charcoal
filters are not required when the unit is to be operating in
this manner.
