Use And Maintenance - Refsta FLACHLÜFTER III Notice D'utilisation

• Fixing the hood to the wall (Fig.7B):
1. Using the drill template supplied, make 2 fixing holes in
accordance with the measurements listed. When carrying
out the fixing procedures, use only screws and screw anchors
which are suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete,
plasterboard etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are supplied
with the appliance, make sure that they are suited to the type
of wall to which the hood must be fixed. Adjust the position
of the brackets M in accordance with the cabinet depth, using
the caged nut N as indicated in figure 7A.
2. Fix the hood to the bracket using screw G as indicated in
figure 7B.
3. Fix the hood to the wall using the 2 screws R (Fig.7C).
• Fitting the spacers:
Depending on your appliance model, use the following in-
stallation instructions:
1. Spacer I (Fig.8).
To fill in any space remaining between the hood and the wall,
simply position spacer I next to the wall and fix it in place with
the 3 screws L as indicated in figure 8.
2. Spacer O (Fig.5).
see note (*) Warning: plastic spacer fitting.
• Extractor version:
When installed in this way the appliance expels fumes outside,
either through a perimeter wall or existing ducting. It is there-
fore necessary to purchase a non-flammable air exhaust tube
which complies with all current legislation and connect it to
the flange F supplied (Fig.1A).
• Filter hood:
Please note:
In order to transform the hood from EXTRACTOR HOOD
into FILTER HOOD the carbon filters must be ordered at your
distributor as accessory. The air is released back into the room
through connection piping which passes through the cabinet
and is connected to flange F (Fig.1B). The active carbon filters
must be fitted inside the hood.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The effective
performance of the cooker hood depends on constant main-
tenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both
require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging
with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- In the event that acrylic anti-grease filters are used, hand-
wash every 2 months, using neutral non-abrasive liquid
detergents and replace them after every 6 washes.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function is to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the rege-
nerable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
using a cloth dampened with water or non-abrasive neutral
liquid detergents.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking
and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The
prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases
the average duration of the bulbs.
• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.9):
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane
C using a lever action on the relevant cracks. Replace the bulbs
with new ones of the same type. Caution: do not touch the
light bulb with bare hands.
• Replacing the halogen/incandescent lamps (Fig.13):
Only use lamps of the same type and Wattage installed on
the device.
• Commands (Fig.10):
Push-button A = On/off lights switch.
Push-button B = On/off cooker hood switch. The appliance
switches on at speed level 1, If the cooker hood is on depress
the push-button for 2 sec. to switch off the cooker hood. If
the cooker hood is at speed level 1 it will not be necessary
to depress the push-button to switch the cooker hood off.
Decreases the motor speed.
Display C = Indicates the motor speed level selected and
activates the timer.
Push-button D = Switches on the cooker hood. Increases the
motor speed. Touching the key at 3rd speed, the intensive
function runs for 10' , then the appliance go back to work at
the original speed. During this function the display blinks.
Key E = The Timer times the functions on activation for 15
minutes, after which they are switched off. The Timer is deac-
tivated by re-pressing Key E.
When the Timer is activated the decimal point must flash on
the display. The Timer cannot be activated if the intensive
speed is functioning.
The "clean air" function is activated by pressing key E for 2
seconds when the appliance is switched off. This switches the
motor on for 10 minutes every hour at the first speed.
During functioning a rotary movement of the peripheral seg-
ments must be visualised on the display. When this time has
passed the motor switches off and the fixed letter "C" must
be visualised on the display until the motor re-starts after 50
minutes for another 10 minutes and so on.
Press any key apart from the light keys to return to normal
functioning. Press key E to deactivate the function.
• Anti-grease/active charcoal filters saturation:
- When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates
with the letter F (e.g. 1 and F), the anti-grease filters must be
washed.
- When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates
with the letter A (e.g. 1 and A), the active carbon filters must
be replaced or washed depending on the type of filter.
After the clean filter has been positioned correctly, the
