Safety Precaution; Installation Instructions; Use And Maintenance - Elektra Bregenz DKW 9120-1 Notice D'utilisation

GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information regarding installa-
tion safety and maintenance. Keep this information booklet accessible
for further consultations. The appliance has been designed for use in
the ducting version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering ver-
sion (air circulation on the inside – Fig.1A) or with external motor
(Fig.1C).

SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously with an
open fireplace or burner that depend on the air in the environment and
are supplied by other than electrical energy, as the cooker hood re-
moves the air from the environment which a burner or fireplace need
for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment must not
exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environ-
ment for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws
applicable for external air evacuation.
Before connecting the model to the electricity network:
- control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance) to ascertain
that the voltage and power correspond to the network and the socket is
suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
- If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with another
cable or a special assembly, which may be obtained direct from the
manufacturer or from the Technical Assistance Centre.
2. WARNING !
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger
hazard.
A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood
is operating
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after
prolonged use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire
hazard
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the overheated
oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.
G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or
infirm persons without supervision

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by
specialised personnel.
ENGLISH
• Electric Connection
The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth
cable is necessary.
The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral
If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load indicated on the
description label. Where a plug is provided, the cooker hood must be
installed in order that the plug is easily accessible.
An omnipolar switch with a minimum opening of 3mm between con-
tacts, in line with the electrical load and local standards, must be placed
between the appliance and the network in the case of direct connection
to the electrical network.
• The minimum distance between the support surfaces of the cooking
pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of the cooker hood must be
at least 65 cm. If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the
upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do not connect the
cooker hood exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or
for evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other than an
electrical source.Before proceeding with the assembly operations, re-
move the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.7) so that the unit is easier to handle.
In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare
the hole for evacuation of the air.
• FIXING TO THE WALL
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2). Fix the
appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units.
When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the
screws A (Fig.5). For the various installations use screws and screw
anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plaster-
board, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the
product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the
hood is to be fixed.
• FIXING THE DECORATIVE TELESCOPIC FLUE
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the deco-
rative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or
in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening.
Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then
fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that it is in
line with your hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indi-
cated in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a
connection pipe (Fig.5).
Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood
using the screws B provided (Fig.5), extract the upper flue up to the
bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.3).
If your appliance has the lower connections indicated as in Fig. 4 A, the
fixing to be carried out is that shown in Fig. 6 A
To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering version,
ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the installation in-
structions.
• FILTERING VERSION
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for
installation of the hood in ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue
refer to the instructions contained in the kit. If the kit is not provided,
order it from your dealer as accessory. The charcoal filters must be
fitted in the ducting unit located inside the hood (Fig.8).

USE AND MAINTENANCE

• It is recommended to operate the appliance prior to cooking.
It is recommended to leave the appliance in operation for 15 minutes
after cooking is terminated in order to completely eliminate cooking
vapours and odours.
The proper function of the cooker hood is conditioned by the regularity
of the maintenance operations, in particular, the active carbon filter.
