features and benefits.
Design
Worktop lighting
Integral ‘day light’ halogen lighting ensures
that the cooking area is clearly illuminated.
They last twice as long and are more energy
efficient than standard lights. Some models
also feature a dimmer function.
Performance
Ducted extraction
Ducting out is the most effective method of
extraction if the hood can be sited on
an outside wall, or an outside wall can be
reached via ducting.
Recirculating extraction
If an outside wall cannot be reached the
extractor can be set up for recirculating.
Air is drawn into the appliance through the
filters to neutralise odours and remove
grease particles. The cleaned air is then
returned to the kitchen. A carbon filter or
recirculating kit is necessary for
recirculation (optional accessory).
Recirculating kit
Contains a carbon filter and any other
necessary components to ensure that odour
free air is returned into the kitchen. To
ensure that the hood performance is
maintained, the carbon filter should be
replaced on a regular basis.
Metal filter
A metal filter provides the ultimate in
filtering efficiency. The dishwasher-proof
metal mesh requires periodic cleaning but
can be used over and over again.
Paper grease filter
The print and stripe markings darken
considerably when the disposable paper
filter is saturated to indicate that it needs
replacing.
