The fan can be set to turn off automatically after either 5 or 15 minutes.
Functional description The ventilation hood works by air extraction. The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside. The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Operation Main power switch Intensive setting Level "4" (yellow indicator) should be used for a short period when frying or cooking food with a strong aroma. Press the main power switch to "I". The fan and the lighting can now be operated. If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time (e.g. while vacationing) turn the appliance off by pressing the main power switch to "0". The next time it is turned on, the hood will operate at the level previously used.
Operation Turning off the fan Turning the lighting on/off The overhead lighting can be turned on and off independently of the fan. ^ Press the On/Off button to turn the fan off. The indicator goes out. Automatic Safety Shut Off ^ Press the light button briefly to turn on the lighting. The light button indicator illuminates.

Operation Grease filter timer Checking the grease filter timer A timer monitors the hours of fan operation. The indicator for the grease filter will light after 30 hours of operation. The grease filters must then be cleaned. To check the percentage of time already used: After the grease filters have been cleaned and put in place, the grease ^ Press the On/Off button to turn the fan on. filter timer must be reset. ^ To do this, press the grease filter button for about 3 seconds.
Operation Reprogramming the grease filter timer The grease filter timer is preset to 30 hours. This time can be lengthened or shortened to 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours. – A time of 20 hours should be programmed in kitchens with frequent pan or deep frying. – A time of 20 hours should also be programmed if the kitchen is only used occasionally. Otherwise grease which has accumulated over a long period of time will harden on the filters making cleaning more difficult. ^ Press the On/Off button to turn off the fan.
Cleaning and Care Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it from the outlet or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker. Cleaning the casing ,Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface. ^ All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
Cleaning and Care Grease filters The reusable metal grease filters remove solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc). The grease filters should be cleaned every 3 - 4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights. A dirty filter is a fire hazard. ^ Clean the filters - by hand: use a scrub brush in warm water with a mild detergent. - in a dishwasher: place the filters vertically in the lower basket, making sure that the spray arm is not blocked.
Cleaning and Care Changing the light bulb To change a bulb: Before changing the light bulbs, disconnect the hood from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it, or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker. When in use halogen bulbs become extremely hot, and they can burn your hands. Do not attempt to change the bulbs until they have had sufficient time to cool down. Do not touch the bulb surface. Fingerprints or body oils deposited on the bulb will decrease the life of the bulb.

Air extraction ,WARNING Danger of toxic fumes. Gas cooking appliances release carbon monoxide that can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. The exhaust gases extracted by the hood should be vented outside of the building only. Do not terminate the exhaust ducts in attics, garages, crawlspaces, etc. To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork. Please read and follow the "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.
Air extraction Condensate trap Important: If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may need to be insulated to reduce condensation. In some cases, a condensate trap may also be required to collect and evaporate any condensate which may occur. When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and if possible directly above the exhaust outlet.
