User manual WHIRLPOOL AKR 450 IX INSTRUCTION FOR USE

[. . . ] Earthing of the appliance is compulsory. Never use multisockets and extension leads. The electrical components must no longer be accessible to the user after installation. Do not touch the hood with wet parts of the body or use it when barefoot. [. . . ] Frequently clean all encrustations from dirty surfaces to prevent the accumulation of grease. Do not “flambé” food under the hood. The room must have adequate ventilation when the hood is used at the same time as appliances operating on gas or other fuels. The discharge air must not be eliminated in a duct used to remove fumes produced by appliances operating on gas or other fuels, but must have a separate outlet. All the national regulations on air discharge envisaged by art. 7. 12. 1 of CEI EN 60335-2-31 must be observed. If the hood is used together with other appliances operating on gas or other fuels, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4 x 10-5 bar). Therefore, make sure the room is adequately ventilated. Do not leave pans unattended when frying, since the cooking oil could catch fire. Make sure the lamps are cold before touching them. The hood is not a shelf, therefore do not overload or place objects on it. If the lamp does not work: • Does the lamp need replacing?• Is the lamp correctly fitted? 8 GB F NL E I 5019 318 33260 Extractor hood installation (A): fumes are extracted and expelled to the outside through an exhaust duct fixed to the flange C (bayonet coupling). Always shut off the unused exhaust outlet with the plug D1 provided (if provided- bayonet coupling). In some models, in order to use the rear exhaust outlet B2 the plastic part D2 or D3 must be removed first. Filter version installation (F): If it is not possible to duct fumes and steam to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version by fitting a carbon filter/s (not supplied). In this way, fumes and steam are recycled through the front grille section positioned above the control panel. Check the position of the extraction/filter selector (inside the hood) G. Fixing to the wall - Place the hood against the wall (or use the template H, if provided) and, using a pencil, mark the holes (3 or 4 Ø 8mm holes), drill them, insert the rawlplugs J in the holes and 2 screws K in the top holes. Remove the grille and hang the hood on the 2 screws. Next, from inside, insert the third (and fourth) screws L and screw them all down. Fixing to the wall unit - Position the hood (or use the template H, if provided) and, using a pencil, mark the 4 Ø 6 mm holes to be drilled on the bottom of the wall unit. [. . . ] Rectangular V2: insert the rear edge first T and then the front (U) - replace every 6 months. Position the filter in the centre so that it covers the motor-protection grille, make sure that the reference mark X1 or X2 or X3 on the carbon filter is aligned with the the reference mark Y on the fan shroud, then turn clockwise; to remove, turn anti-clockwise, if provided with a tab Z remember to lift it up slightly first. Replacing the bulb/s Disconnect the hood from the mains power supply. WARNING: Wear gloves. Remove the filters then remove the burnt-out bulb (E14 incandescent bulb, 40 W max). [. . . ]
