- SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
These hoods have been designed for personal use in the home. The appliance must be used
by adults. Take care that children do not touch the appliance and do not use it as a toy. Make
sure that children do not operate the controls.
- Upon delivery of the appliance, remove the packing material yourself or have it removed
immediately.
Check the overall condition of the appliance. Note any observations on the delivery bill and
keep a copy. Your appliance is designed for normal use in the home. It is not designed for
commercial or industrial use, or for purposes other than those for which it was designed.
- Do not ever modify, or attempt to modify, the design characteristics of this appliance. This
could result in danger.
Repairs must be performed only by an authorised specialist.
Always disconnect the hood before carrying out cleaning or maintenance operations.
- Adequately ventilate the area in case the hood is activated simultaneously with other appli-
ances powered from non-electrical sources so that the hood does not ventilate these combus-
tion fumes.
- It is prohibited to cook food over open flames or operate gas hobs without pots or pans on
them under the hood itself (the flames sucked into the hood might damage the appliance).
- Deep frying under the appliance must be done under constant supervision as hot oils and
fats may ignite.
Respect the guidelines for cleaning and replacement of the filters. Accumulated deposits of
grease are a fire hazard.
- The use of combustible materials (wood, charcoal, etc...) on the hobs is not permitted.
Never use steam or high-pressure devices for cleaning your hood (regulations regarding elec-
trical safety).
Constantly seeking to improve our products, we reserve the right to modify their technical,
functional, or aesthetic characteristics as they evolve.
To find them easily in the future, we recommend that you collect the notes regarding your
appliance in the "Post Sales Assistance and Consumer Relations" on page 14 of the manual in
the French language (Furthermore, this page explains where to find them on your appliance).
Attention:
Never use the hood without the filter cartridges.
Furthermore, you must province adequate ventilation to the area when your kitchen hood is
used at the same time as devices that operate with gas or other combustible materials.
