Operating your Cooker Hood

The Controls

Make sure that the Cooker hood is wired in and the power supply is switched on.

Your Cooker hood has three speeds, to give you the correct extraction level to suit your cooking conditions.

1Low

2Normal

3Boost

The control marked with the symbol controls the fan speed.

Position 1, should be selected when simmering or using only one pan.

Position 2 for normal cooking, up to four pans.

Position 3 when frying or cooking foods with strong odours.

Simply slide the selector to the required setting. It is advisable to leave it running for approximately 15 minutes after finishing cooking to ensure all odours are extracted. There is a separate selector for the light. The switch marked with the symbol controls illumination and indicates

when illumination is operating. ‘O’ is the OFF position. The visor can be adjusted to enlarge the extraction area.
