OPERATION
SPEED CHOICE
Product has three-speed motor and a multi-positioned switch to command the motor.
For best performance, we recommend you to operate the unit at high speed in
excessively smokey and smelly places. Motor starts as the slider switch is opened
and stops as the slider set is closed.The slider button at the bottom of the device is for
turning the device on. To turn on the device, slide the button to the right.
Hood must be started a few minutes before cooking starts and continue to operate
after cooking is finished until odors and fumes are removed.
LIGHTING
Hood has 2 lamps and a lamp switch to command the illumination. To turn the
illumination on, slide the slider illumination button to the left.
EFFICIENT VENTILATION
For correct ventilation, windows opening outside must be kept closed. Doors and
windows opening to other rooms may be kept open.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
Pay attention when operating the hood simultaneously with devices that
work by burning the ambient air with fuel (such as gas heaters). The
burning may be affected because the hood discharges air in the room to
the outside.
This advice does not apply to hoods not having an outside exhaust.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
*
Disconnect the device prior to maintenance (cut off its power supply by turning off
the switch).
* The aluminum cassette filter holds oils and dust from the air. The metal filter must
be washed in hot soapy water every month, if possible in the dishwasher at
140°F.
* To disassemble, press on the spring clamps at the edge of the cassette filter.
(Do not reassemble before drying after cleaning.)
* Outer surfaces of the hood should be wiped with a cloth dampened with a solution
of liquid detergent. Do not clean the unit with products containing corrosive
substances.
* Avoid wetting switches or other electronic parts when cleaning with water or
other liquids.
* When cleaning stainless steel surfaces, use products specifically made for this
use.
Note: Aluminum filters may change color after several washings in the dishwasher.
This is normal and does not affect the performance of the filter.
CARBON FILTER REPLACEMENT
Before replacing the round carbon filters, disconnect the power to your device. The
carbon filters are located behind the metal filter, on the left and the right sides of the
blower. First, take out the metal filter. To replace the carbon filters, remove the old
ones from the device and mount the new ones as shown. In kitchens that do not
have a chimney outlet, the carbon filter should be replaced every 3-5 months
depending on usage.
