Operating and Installation Instructions  
Safety warnings  
For the user  
• The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours from the  
kitchen, it will not extract steam.  
• Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from  
damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired  
cookers it is essential to avoid open flames.  
• Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/cooker  
under careful control.  
• The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating.  
• The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty.  
• It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire.  
Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood.  
Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before  
carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the  
light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch off  
the automatic circuit breaker).  
It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at  
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause  
grease deposits to build up, resulting in a fire hazard.  
• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm  
persons without supervision.  
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play  
with the appliance.  
WARNING - Ensure that the appliance is switched off before  
replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.

For the installer  
Only for model DF6160: when used as an extractor unit, the hood  
must be fitted with a 120mm diameter hose.  
Only for models DF 6260 - DF 6260-ml/1 and CHDF 6260: when  
used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a 150mm  
diameter hose.  
Only for model DF 6260 - DF 6260-ml/1: should there already be a  
hose of diameter 125 mm that ducts to the outside through the walls  
or roof, it is possible to use the 150/125 mm reduction flange  
provided. In this case the hood will be slightly more noisy.  
When installing the hood, make sure you observe the  
following minimum distance from the top edge of the  
cooking hob/ring surfaces:  
electric cookers  
gas cookers  
430 mm  
650 mm  
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater  
distance, this must be adhered to.  
• The national Standard on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum  
depression of 0.04 mbar in such rooms.  
• The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combustion  
gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be connected  
to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning appliances are  
installed.  
• The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid down  
by the relevant local authorities.  
• When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently large  
ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are approxi-  
mately the same as the outlet hole.  
• National and regional building regulations impose a number of  
restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected to  
a chimney, such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the  
same room.  
• Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a  
chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is  
ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approximately  
500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression being  
created during operation of the hood.  
• If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or  
building inspector’s office.  
• Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is “outlet hole of  
the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole of 500-600 cm2, which  
is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the extractor  
hood.  
63  
• If the hood is used in its recirculation mode, it will operate simply  
and safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the  
aforementioned measures.  
• The ducting must be fire retardant, 120mm in diameter and the  
length should be no more than:  
3 metres with one 90 degree bend  
2 metres with two 90 degree bends  
Bends of more than 90 degrees will reduce the efficiency of the hood  
and reduce the airflow.  
• Failure to observe these basic instructions will drastically reduce the  
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.  
64  
Description of the Appliance  
The cooker hood is designed to extract unpleasant odours  
from the kitchen, it will not extract steam.  
• The hood is supplied as an extractor unit and can also be used with  
a recirculation mode by fitting a charcoal filter.  
• In some models the charcoal filter is supplied. The hood, therefore,  
can be used immediately in the recirculation mode. We advise  
removing the charcoal filter to use the hood in the extraction mode.  
Extraction mode  
• In this version fumes are extracted to the outside via a hose.  
• In order to obtain the best performance the hose should have a  
diameter equal to the outlet hole.  
Recirculation mode  
• The air is filtered through a charcoal filter and returned to the kitchen.  
• You will need an original charcoal filter for the recirculation function.  
(Available from your local Service Force Centre).

The fan is controlled by moving the sliding switch.  
The extractor part (visor) of the hood is used to switch the fan on and  
off when the appliance is switched on (Motor).  
When the visor of the appliance is withdrawn, the fan automatically  
switches on.  
If the visor is pushed in without operating the switches, the fan is  
switched off.  
The lighting can be separately switched on and off with the slide switch.  
Turn the hood on a few minutes before you start cooking then you will  
get an underpressure in the kitchen. It should be left on after cooking  
for about 15 minutes or until all odours have disappeared.  
66  
Maintenance and Care  
The hood must always be disconnected from the electricity supply before  
beginning any maintenance work.  
Cleaning the hood  
Clean the outside of the hood using a damp cloth and a mild washing up liquid  
solution.  
Never use corrosive, abrasive or flammable cleaning products.  
Never insert pointed objects in the motor’s protective grid.  
Never use caustic detergents or abrasive brushes or powders.  
Only ever clean the switch panel and filter grill using a damp cloth and mild washing  
up liquid solution.  
It is extremely important to clean the unit and change the filters at the recommended  
intervals. Failure to do so will cause grease deposits to build up that could constitute a  
fire hazard.  
Metal grease filter  
The purpose of the grease filters is to aspirate grease particles which form during  
cooking and it must always be used, either in the extraction or internal recirculation  
function.Attention: the metal grease filters must be removed and washed, either by  
hand or in the dishwasher, every four weeks.  
Removing the metal grease filter  
Pull out the visor, remove the rear grease filter pulling the handle designed for this  
purpose, then proceed in the same way to remove the front grease filter. Fig. 2.  
Hand washing  
Soak grease filters for about one hour in hot water with a grease-loosening cleaner,  
then rinse off thoroughly with hot water. Repeat the process if necessary. Refit the  
grease filters when they are dry.  
Dishwasher  
Place grease filters in dishwasher. Select most powerful washing programme and  
highest temperature, at least 65°C. Repeat the process. Refit the grease filters when  
they are dry. When washing the metal grease filter in the dishwasher a slight  
discolouration of the filter can occur, this does not have any impact on its performance.  
Clean the inner housing using a hot detergent solution only (never use caustic  
detergents, abrasive powders or brushes).  
Fig. 2  
67  
Charcoal filter  
• The charcoal filter should only be used if you want to use the hood in  
the recirculation function.  
To do this you will need an original charcoal filter (available from your  
local Service Force Centre).  
Replacing the charcoal filter Type 150  
Note: this filter is already installed on model DF 6260-ml9.  
This filter cannot be cleaned or reused.  
As a general rule, the activated charcoal filter should be changed  
once every 4 months.  
Cleaning/replacing the charcoal filter Type 150 LONG LIFE  
Unlike other charcoal filters, the LONGLIFE charcoal filter can be  
cleaned and reactivated.At normal use the filter should be cleaned  
every second month (when using the hood 2,5 hours per day, on  
avarage). The best way to clean the filter is in the dishwasher. Use  
normal detergent and choose the highest temperature (65º C). Wash  
the filter separately so that no food parts gets stuck on the filter and  
later causes bad odours. To reactivate the charcoal, the filter should  
be dried in an oven for 10 minutes with a maximum temperature of  
100ºC.  
After approximately three years of use, the charcoal filter should be  
replaced with a new, as the odour reduction capacity will be reduced.  
Fitting  
1. Pull out the visor (Fig. 1 - E).  
2. Remove first the rear then the front grease filters.  
3. Insert the charcoal filter into the lugs of the frame above using the  
2 red clips to retain it, press the red clips inwards, and insert the  
charcoal filter in the frame. Fig. 3.  
Removing:  
1. Press both red lugs upwards (towards the inside of the housing)  
and remove the charcoal filter downwards.  
2. Clean the internal housing only with warm washing-up liquid’ suds  
(never use any abrasive cleaners, brushes, or scouring agents).  
• Always specify the hood model code number and serial number  
when ordering replacement filters. This information is shown on the  
registration plate located on the inside of the unit.  
• The charcoal filter can be ordered from your local Service Force  
Centre.  
Fig. 3

• The hood is supplied as an  
extractor unit.  
172  
190  
Before installing the hood, drill a  
238  
hole in the roof of the wall unit  
(see Fig. 5). This hole is to allow  
passage of the outlet pipe and the  
power cable, and to facilitate  
servicing.  
• The wall unit must have a  
minimum body depth (without  
Fig. 5  
door) of 300 mm with recessed  
light screen and min. 370 mm with  
flush-mounted light screen. The unobstructed internal height must be  
at least 370 mm.  
Preparing the wall unit - Filter version (DF 6160)  
• Before installation of the hood in the wall unit, a 115x115 mm hole for  
the deflector should be cut in the ceiling of the wall unit. Fig. 6-7.  
• Depending on the wall unit height, you need for return air operation a  
pipe union or additionally a non-flammable length of pipe (Ø 100/115/  
120 mm) as far as the ceiling of the wall unit.
