Installing The Hood; The Evacuation Mode; The Recycling Mode - GE CGP6010I Manual De Uso Y Cuidado

Installing the hood

Note: This Installation and Operation Guide is valid for several models. Minor differences
in details and fittings may emerge between your model and the descriptions provided.
• The appliance must be unplugged during
installation or when any repair or mainte-
nance job is being performed.
• Make sure that the network voltage corre-
sponds to the voltage noted on the identifi-
cation plate located inside the hood.
• If the electrical installation at your home
requires any changes in order to hookup
your appliance, call a qualified electrician.
Evacuation Mode
If your installation has a duct that exhausts
to the exterior (fig. 1), your hood can be con-
nected to this outlet using a flue (minimum
diameter 125 mm that is enamelled, in alu-
minium, flexible or made of inflammable ma-
terial). If your flue is less than 125 mm in di-
ameter, you must use the recycling mode.
Recycling Mode
If you do not have a duct exhausting to the
exterior (fig. 2), use the hood in recycling
mode. In this case, install an active carbon
filter which will retain odors. (See Replacing
the carbon filter.)

• If the hood is being used in evacuation
mode, do not connect the appliance to a
combustion gas exhaust duct (boiler, chim-
ney, etc.) or to a CMV (controlled mechani-
cal ventilation) system.
• Under no circumstances should the ex-
haust duct discharge into an attic.
• Install the hood at a safe distance of at
least 70 cm from an electric, gas or com-
bined cooking surface.
