installation
General
This appliance should be connected to the power supply by a recognized fitter
who is familiar with, and works according to the correct safety regulations. This
appliance meets the European requirements CEE 89/336 EMC and CEE 73/23;
93/68 LVD.
Important that you know:
■ The cooker hood should be mounted at least 650 mm above the hob.
■ If the cooker hood is to be fitted to an existing duct no other appliances,
such as a geyser or heater, may be connected to that same duct.
■ Consider local regulations with respect to the ventilation of gas appliances!
■ The shorter the duct, and the fewer the bends in it, the better the cooker
hood will work.
■ Before you start drilling check that there are no installation cables present.
■ The connecting pipe for the extractor hood has a diameter of 150 mm
(RSK975/RSK986/RSK981) or125 mm (RSK595). It is best also to use a flue pipe
of the same diameter.
maintenance
Changing the light bulbs
RSK595
Remove the metal panels and the filter panel. Change the light bulb.
RSK868/RSK975/RSK981
Remove the cover (1) by turning it counter
clockwise. Pull the bulb (2) in the direction of the
arrow and out of the holder, then fit the new
bulb.
Take care not to touch the bulb with your hands when you replace it, since
direct contact with the skin can result in the bulb burning out.
Cleaning
Cooker hood
Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then wipe with clean
water to rinse. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as soda.
The cooker hood paintwork will stay looking nice if you wax it occasionally.
Stainless steel canopy hoods
Do not use any sort of scourer. Treat with Stahlfix (supermarket) and polish with
the structure of the stainless steel.
Metal panels
The panels can be placed in the dishwasher for cleaning. The openings must be
placed downwards to let the water run out of the panels.
Filters
Wash aluminium filters every week in soapy water. The cleaning agents will
make the aluminium filter turn dull, this is normal.
