- ELECTRICAL RISKS
- All the power supply circuits must be disconnected before touch-
ing the connect ion terminals. If the power cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, its after-sales service or
a similarly qualified person in order to avoid any danger.
- The appliance can be disconnected by using an accessible
power outlet or by incorporating a switch in the fixed lines, in
accordance with the installation rules.
- Do not change or at tempt to change the characteristics of this
appliance. Doing so can be dangerous.
- The appliance must only be repaired by an approved specialist.
- Always disconnect the hood before cleaning or maintaining it.
- Never use steam or high-pressure tools to clean your appli-
ance ( for the purposes of electrical safety).
- RISK oF ASpHYxIATIon
- The regulations applying to the evacuation of air must be obeyed.
The air must not be sent into a duct used to evacuate fumes from
appliances that use gas or other fuels (this does not apply to ap-
pliances that only emit air into the room).
- The room must be suitably ventilated when the range hood is
used at the same time as appliances that use gas or other fuels
(this does not apply to appliances that only emit air into the room).
- RISK oF FIRE
- It is forbidden to flambé food or to turn on gas rings that are
not covered by a cooking recipient beneath the hood, as the
flames may sucked in and damage the appliance.
- Keep a constant eye on fryers used beneath the hood. When
heated to very high temperatures, oil and fat can catch fire.
- Clean the appliance and replace the filters at the recommended
frequency. Accumulated deposits of grease can cause a fire.
- It is forbidden to use the hood above a fuel fire (wood, coal, etc.).
- If the hood is installed above a gas-fired appliance, leave at
least 70 cm between the top of the range and the underside of
the hood. If the instructions of the range installed under the
hood specify a distance greater than 70 cm, then this distance
must be respected.
