o The edges of the cooker hood are sharp – be mindful of this as you handle your appliance, especially during installation and cleaning. DO NOT CLEAN IN BEHIND THE GREASE FILTER! o If the room where the cooker hood is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance such as a central heating boiler then its flue must be of the sealed or balanced flue type. o If other types of flue or appliances are fitted, ensure that there is an adequate supply of air in the room.
o Remember that when in extraction mode, your cooker hood is removing air from your room. Ensure that proper ventilation measures are being observed. o Note that the cooker hood removes odours from your kitchen, not steam. o Warning - Always ensure that the cooker hood has been disconnected from the power supply before carrying out any work on the hood, including cleaning and replacing light bulbs.

Cleaning your Baumatic cooker hood IMPORTANT: BEFORE CLEANING, ALWAYS ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE SWITCHED YOUR COOKER HOOD OFF AT THE OMNI-POLAR SWITCH, SET AT THE WALL FROM THE CABLE. Cleaning o Clean the external parts of your cooker hood with mild liquid detergent and a new damp cloth. o Never use abrasive powder, corrosive solvents or brushes. o Never insert pointed objects into the motor’s protective grid.
Maintenance Removing and cleaning the grease filter o First remove the grease filter by pulling down on the handle, and then pull it upwards away from the main body of the cooker hood. o Soak the grease filter in hot water and washing up liquid for about an hour. o Rinse it off thoroughly with hot water. o Repeat the process if required. o Refit the grease filter once it has dried. o IMPORTANT: Let the grease filter dry thoroughly before refitting it in the cooker hood.
Changing a light bulb IMPORTANT: BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE A LIGHT BULB, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE DISCONNECTED THE COOKER HOOD FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY. o Remove the grease filter (as described on page 11). o Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure that they have cooled down. o Find the bulb that requires replacement, you will find it located in the light fixture which is inside the exposed section of the canopy. o Use a screwdriver to remove the glass cover that sits over the bulb.
Fitting the carbon filter If the appliance is going to be used in recirculation mode then it is necessary to fit carbon filters. This will help to absorb unpleasant odours caused by cooking. IMPORTANT: BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FIT OR REMOVE THE CARBON FILTERS, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE DISCONNECTED THE COOKER HOOD FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY. 1) Remove the grease filter. 2) Hook the carbon filter over the pins that are located at the end of the motor.
Installation IMPORTANT: Before installation and usage read all the instructions and make sure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the rating plate are exactly the same as the voltage and frequency in your home. The rating plate can be found behind the grease filter.
o As the colours of the wires in the appliance’s mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your spur box, please proceed as follows: o The blue wire must be connected to the terminal marked “N” (neutral), or coloured black. o The brown wire must be connected to the terminal marked “L” (live), or coloured red. Before beginning installation o Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.
o Rawl plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls and ceilings. However a qualified technician must verify the suitability of the materials, in accordance with the type of wall and ceiling. The wall and ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. o Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. This appliance is designed to be surface mounted only.
2) Position the hood against the wall that you are intending to install it on and mark the position of the support holes that are to be drilled (as shown in the figure below). 2a) The support screw holes are indicated by figure A in this drawing and the anchoring screw holes are indicated by figure B. 3) Using a drill bit with an 8 mm diameter, make holes in the wall on the positions that you have marked in step 2.
4) Insert rawl plugs into all of the holes that you have drilled. 5) Fasten the support screws halfway in, leaving them 10 mm out of the wall. 6) Hang the hood onto the support screws. 7) Fully tighten the support screws (A) and then screw the anchoring screws (B) through the relevant holes in the cooker hood. Tighten the anchoring screws fully into the wall.
Connecting to external ducting 8) Connect the coupling to the top of the cooker hood, and then connect a 125 mm ducting hose to the coupling (please note that the ducting hose is not supplied with the appliance). o The other end of the ducting hose should be connected to a discharge outlet that is suitable for cooking vapours. It should have a cross section of at least 150 cm². o The maximum distance between the coupling and your discharge outlet should be 3 metres, with one 90 degree bend.
10) Lift chimney section D upwards until it reaches the ceiling. You must ensure that it is perpendicular to the hood. o Mark the side measurements of both sides of chimney section D on the wall with a pencil and then remove chimney section D. 11) Take the fixing bracket (E) and place it between the two pencil marks that you made in step 9.
12) Using an 8 mm drill bit, drill out two holes on the pencil markings that you made in step 11. Insert rawl plugs into the holes and then use a screwdriver to secure the fixing bracket to the wall. o Refit chimney section C to the hood and fix it onto the hood using the two screws that are supplied. o Secure the top of chimney section C to the fixing bracket, using the screws provided. o Slide chimney section D inside of chimney section C.
Completing the installation If you are setting the appliance to recirculation mode, then you should now fit the two carbon filters. See the “Fitting the carbon filters” section on page 13. The electrical connection must correspond to the electrical requirement noted on the rating plate, which is placed inside the cooker hood. The appliance should now be connected to the electrical supply. See page 14 – 15 for detailed information on the electrical connection.
