(for models B and C)

1. Press key once to start the hood in the intensive ventilation mode.
   The intensive ventilation mode starts up and runs for a maximum of 10 minutes.
   During this time, the key lights up. After 10 minutes, the product continues to operate in Speed 3 and the Speed 3 key lights up.

In intensive ventilation mode, when any speed key is touched, it returns to that speed level and continues to operate.

Operating the lamp

1. Touch the key to operate the lamp.
   Hood lamp lights. (For Models B and C) If you touch the key again within the first 1 minute, the lamp will continue to light at the low illumination level. If you touch it again 1 minute after turning the lamp on, it turns off.

The illumination lamps operate for a maximum of 12 hours

Turning off the lamp

1. One minute after turning the hood lamp on, you can turn it off by touching the key again.

(For Models B and C)
If you touch the key again within the first 1 minute after the lamp is switched on, the lamp switches to the low illumination level.

Setting the lamp illumination colour

(for models B and C)

You can use the colour of your hood's illumination lamps in 3 different shades.

1. With the hood lamp turned on, touch key for more than 2 seconds.
   The lamp changes to the other colour shade.
2. If you continue to touch key, it will change to the next colour shade after every 2 seconds. According to the desired colour shade, stop touching key when the lamp is in that colour shade. The colour shade will automatically activate.

You can only change the light colour shade while the lamp has high light intensity.
In the event of a power outage, your hood will remember the colour shade set and the lamp will work in the colour that was last set.

Automatic mode (for model C)

Your hood measures the temperature of the air in the kitchen and the air coming from your hob by using a sensor. In automatic mode, it determines the required levels for the temperature of the air from the hob to match the temperature of the air in the kitchen and operates at levels determined automatically.

1. To enable automatic mode touch the key.
   The automatic mode is activated and operates until the temperature of the air from the hob equals the ambient temperature. The temperature will switch off automatically when it equalizes. You must enable automatic mode again to re-switch it on.

While automatic mode is active, automatic mode will be cancelled when you turn the product on and off at any speed.

2. To turn automatic mode off early touch the key once more.

If you open the cover of the product when auto mode is on, its performance will decrease. Do not open the cover when the automatic mode is active.
If the ambient temperature difference occurs even when the hob is not operating while the automatic mode is active, the temperature sensor in the product will detect the difference and the product may start operating at Speed 2 or 3 depending on the difference. In this case, automatic mode will be turned off when the temperature difference is equalized.
Do not use automatic mode when your hob is not working.

Air cleaning mode (for models B and C)
You can use air cleaning mode to eliminate the odour in your house during a long time at low level.

When air cleaning mode is active, it is automatically cancelled at the touch of any key except lamp key. Your hood continues to operate at the function of the key you touch.

After cleaning, the lamp warning of Speed 2 button does not turn off automatically. When you touch the Speed 2 key for more than 3 seconds, aluminium filter fill warning is reset and the lamp is turned off.

The warning is not cancelled if the power is cut when the hood gives aluminium filter fill warning. When power is available, it continues to warn with the light of Speed 2 key flashing.
If you run your hood at any speed level with the aluminium filter fill warning, the warning will not appear for as long as the hood is running. When you turn off the hood, the fill warning starts flashing again.
