Fitting the cold air inlet

This is not applicable when the hood is used in re-

circulation mode. The hood can be fitted with a

cold air inlet (Fig. 16). The cold air inlet consists of

two valves fitted inside the hood flue duct. If the

hood is the only ventilation system in the kitchen,

the extremity of the valves leading to the outside

must be cut off and removed. Bend the valves

slightly so that the pins fit into the slots provided in

the hood flue duct. Make sure the criss-cross side

of the valves is facing upwards.

Push each valve with a pencil or similar object;

the valves should open without any resistance. In

the event of friction, make sure each valve has not

been installed upside down and that none of the

pins have slipped out of their slot.

Positioning the charcoal filter

Only applicable for operation in re-circulation

mode. The LONG LIFE charcoal filter (special

accessory) for this hood is installed instead of the

grease filter. The LONG LIFE charcoal filter is

both a grease filter as well as a charcoal filter,

designed to minimise unpleasant cooking odours.

An opening must be made underneath or on the

front of the cabinet (min. 100 cm²) where the hood

is installed, so that the filtered air can circulate

freely and return to the kitchen.

Fitting a ducting kit (Fig. 17)

Extend the ducting, without stretching it.

A duct that is too long or not straight

enough could cut down hood efficiency

by up to fifty percent. Shorten the duct if

it is too long and make sure it is as

straight as possible.

A complete ducting kit is sold separately as an

optional extra. The flue duct (A) fits over the hood

flue connection ring (B) and is kept securely in

place by a collar. Make sure the duct is as straight

as possible and that it does not impede the

movement of the valves in any way. The duct is

connected to the duct outlet by the metal

connection ring plate (C), supplied in the kit.
