Use And Maintenance - V-ZUG FORANO Manuel D'utilisation

- Make sure the 2 J levelling screws are tightened completely
(Fig.5).
- Align the appliance horizontally using the two levelling
screws J (Fig.5).
- Once the adjustment has been made, fasten the hood
permanently using the screws C and D (Fig.4).
- For easy accessibility to the motor unit in the case of
assistance, after having levelled and fixed the appliance
definitively, we recommend that the brackets are removed
(Fig.5).
- When carrying out the fixing operations, use only screws
and screw anchors 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.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:
- Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions
of the decorative 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.7).
- Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.7) in such a
way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance
from the ceiling indicated in Fig.6.
- Connect the flange F to the air exhaust hole using a connec-
tion pipe (Fig.8).
- Insert the upper flue into the lower flue.
- Put the bottom telescopic flue in place on the hood, extract
the top telescopic flue until the bracket and fix it with the
screws B (Fig.9).
- To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering
version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the
installation instructions.
- Warning: The cooker hood may be installed with the air
exhaust outlet at the rear, by removing bracket X with the
motor and rotating it, as illustrated in Fig.10.
The wall mounting bracket Y should also be removed and
fixed as illustrated in Fig.10, using the same screws.
By means of an air exhaust pipe, connect the flange F to the
air exhaust hole already set-up. To close it in a cleaner fashion,
you can mount the cover M (Fig.11).
• Ducting version:
- Remove the grid E and the cable gland H from the cover M
(Fig.12A - Fig.12B).
- Pass the power supply cable through the slot in the canopy
M, as indicated in Fig.12B.
- Taking the grommet H, position it between the power cable
and the slot.
- Fit the carbon filters inside the cooker hood (Fig.13).
- Secure the fairing M, taking care to ensure that it is correctly
hooked on the securing pins (Fig.11).

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 maintenance; 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.
- 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 s 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.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat
dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a
maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable
charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least
every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.
• 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 denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• 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.14):
In order to replace the dichroic lamps, carefully remove
the lamp from the lamp holder with the help of a small flat
screwdriver or a similar tool.
PLEASE NOTE! In doing this operation, please take care
not to scratch the hood.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
• Controls (Fig.15):
Power key (A) = Opens and closes the door. Upon opening,
both the light and the motor, at speed 1, switch on.
For safety reasons, if while being opened or closed the door
encounters some type of resistance, it locks up. In order to
unlock it, press the "A" key again. The door will complete one
or two openings in order to return to the initial setting.
Speed Key (B) = Switches the motor on/off and increases
its speed.
Each time the key is pressed briefly, the motor increases speed
from 1 to 2 to 3 and then shuts off. At each speed only the LED
indicating the speed set turns on.
The appliance is equipped with intense speed. To activate it,
press the "B" key for about 2 seconds, no matter what motor
speed the hood is in. The active function is indicated by the
speed 3 LED that will be flashing. The intense speed lasts 15
minutes and then the hood goes back to the last setting. In
order to deactivate the function before the defined time limit,
