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 FILTERS! 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 the room it is installed in. Ensure that proper ventilation measures are being observed. Note that it removes odours from the room, 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 filters o Open the cover screen by pressing it on both of the corners nearest to the control panel. o Remove a grease filter by lifting up the catch and then pulling the filter away from the hood. o Soak the grease filters in hot water and washing up liquid for about an hour. o Rinse them off thoroughly with hot water. o Repeat the process if required. o Refit the grease filters once they have dried. o Close the cover screen.
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 Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down. o Find the bulb that requires replacement, you will find it located in the light fixture which is on the underneath of the cooker hood. o Using a flat tipped screwdriver, remove the bulb and insert a new GU4 12V 20W (max) bulb. o IMPORTANT: Defective bulbs should be replaced immediately.
Fitting the carbon filter If the appliance is going to be used in recirculation mode then it is necessary to fit a carbon filter. This will help to absorb unpleasant odours caused by cooking. IMPORTANT: BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO FIT OR REMOVE THE CARBON FILTER, YOU MUST ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE DISCONNECTED THE COOKER HOOD FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY. o Open the cover screen and remove the grease filters. 1) Locate the SCS14 carbon filter into the slots on the cooker hood, below 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 filters.
Electrical connection YOUR COOKER HOOD IS INTENDED FOR FITTED AND PERMANENT INSTALLATION. o The cooker hood’s power cable must be fitted upstream from the electrical connection, using an omni-polar switch with a contact distance of at least 3 mm. WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. It should only be connected by a competent person, using fixed wiring via a double pole switched fused spur outlet. (UK ONLY).
Before beginning installation o Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area. In addition check whether there is an electrical socket available that will be accessible once the hood is mounted. If the product is going to be used in extraction mode, then there should also be space to connect a ducting hose to the outside. o Carry out all necessary masonry work prior to the fitting of the cooker hood.
Extraction mode or recirculation mode? IMPORTANT: YOU WILL HAVE TO DECIDE BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR COOKER HOOD WHETHER TO USE IT IN EXTRACTION MODE OR RECIRCULATION MODE. What is the difference between extraction and recirculation modes? In extraction mode, the stale air will be taken out of the room via external ducting. In recirculation mode stale air is taken via the grease filter, and passed through a charcoal filter for purification. The air then re-enters the kitchen via an opening in the hood.
Installing your cooker hood o We recommend that at least two people install this hood. IMPORTANT: YOUR COOKER HOOD SHOULD BE CONNECTED TO YOUR MAINS SUPPLY AFTER THE REST OF THE INSTALLATION PROCESS HAS BEEN COMPLETED. 1) Open the cover screen and remove the metal grease filters. 2) The mounting bar that you hang the hood on can be found on the side of the housing motor or in the package that contains the fixing screws and instruction manual.
4) Using a pencil, mark the centre of the wall where the cooker hood will be installed. Place the mounting bar against the wall and ensure that the middle of it is placed on the centre mark. o Use a pencil to mark the position of where the screw holes will be drilled. o Use a spirit level to ensure that the two markings are horizontally level. 5) Using a drill bit with an 8 mm diameter, make holes in the wall on the positions that you marked in step 4.
7) Hook the hood onto the mounting bar. 8) If required you can adjust the alignment of the cooker hood using the screws on the brackets that hook over the mounting bar. o The top screw (B) adjusts the distance from the wall and the bottom screw (C) adjusts the height.
9) Mark the position of the lower screw holes that need to be drilled out in step 10. The holes can be found immediately below the motor housing. (The position of one of the holes is indicated in the above photograph by the screwdriver). 10) Remove the hood from the mounting bar and then using a drill bit with an 8 mm diameter, make holes in the wall on the positions that you marked in step 9. 11) Insert rawl plugs into the holes that you have just drilled. o Follow steps 7 and 8 again (i.e.
Connecting to external ducting 12) Connect the coupling (D) to the top of the cooker hood. o You may find an anti-draft flap included with the fixtures and fittings for the cooker hood. You should sit this in the top of the coupling. o Connect a 125 mm ducting hose (E) 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.
Fitting the chimney 13) Separate the two chimney sections (G and H). o Rest the bottom of chimney section G on the top of the hood. Making sure that the holes at the bottom of it, line up with the securing holes on top of the motor housing. o If you want to install the appliance at its minimum height (i.e. only using one section of chimney), then you should complete steps 14-18 using chimney section G only. 14) Lift chimney section H upwards to the desired height.
16) Using a 4 mm drill bit, drill out holes on the pencil markings that you made in step 15. Insert rawl plugs into the holes and then use a screwdriver to secure the fixing bracket to the wall. 17) Place chimney section G back onto the hood. o Make sure that the holes in the bottom of chimney section G line up with the securing holes on top of the main body of the motor housing. o From inside of the motor housing, screw chimney section G to the hood.
o IMPORTANT: Make sure that the vent on either side of chimney section H is pointing upwards and not inside of chimney section G. 18) Lift chimney section H up to the fixing bracket that you secured to the wall in step 16. Secure it to the fixing bracket using the screws provided. Make sure that these screws are fully tightened. o If you are installing the appliance at its minimum height, then you should connect chimney section G to the fixing bracket.
Troubleshooting IMPORTANT: If your cooker hood appears not to be operating properly, before contacting the Baumatic Service Department, please refer to the checklist below. My cooker hood will not start. o Check that the hood is connected to the power supply and whether you have selected any of the fan speeds. My cooker hood is not working effectively. o Check that fan speed is set to an appropriate setting. o Check that the grease filter is not dirty and if it requires cleaning.
