Using the cooker hood

The control panel

The control panel is under the cooker hood. Best results are obtained by using low speed for normal conditions and high speed when smells and steam are more concentrated.

Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking then you will get an underpressure in the kitchen. It should be left on after cooking for about 15 minutes or until all steam and smells have disappeared.

Do not operate the fan at a higher speed than necessary. The low speeds are adequate for ordinary requirements while cooking. The high speeds should be used only if food has burnt while cooking, or for other strong fumes.

Correct ventilation

If the cooker hood should be working correctly there must be an underpressure in the kitchen. It is important to keep the kitchen windows closed and have a window in an adjacent room open.

Important to know

Great care must be taken if the hood is used at the same time as a burner or fireplace (e.g. gas, diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc.), as the hood will expel air which is required by these other appliances. Attend to it by opening a window. Not applicable for cooker hoods used in recirculation mode.

Maintenance and cleaning

Before doing any maintenance work on the hood, disconnect it from the main supply by disconnecting the plug from the wall socket or unscrewing the fuse.

Clean the filter regularly. The grease that collects in the filter and the duct could ignite if a hot plate is left on (or if overheating occurs).

Cleaning the hood

Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.

Cleaning the grease filters

Clean the filter every month or every other month

 

according to how much the hood is used. The cleaner

 

the filters, the better it collects grease. Remove the
