OPERATION (CONT’D)
PM600SSV
Master ON/OFF:
Press this key to turn on the light and the fan at the last
saved intensity. The backlights of the master ON/OFF
key, fan key and light key are turned ON. When either
light and fan are ON, pressing on this key will memorize
the current fan speed and lighting level prior to shut
them OFF.
Whenever there is an active function (light or fan is
turned ON directly by pressing the fan or light key),
the master ON/OFF backlight is turned ON. When the
last active function is turned OFF (light or fan is turned
OFF directly by pressing the fan or light key), the master
ON/OFF backlight is also turned OFF.
Fan:
When fan is OFF, a key press turns ON the fan to the
last saved speed. If there was no speed saved, the fan
will be set on LOW speed. To change the fan speed,
press the key again until the desired speed is reached
(from LOW, to MEDIUM-LOW, to MEDIUM-HIGH, to
HIGH speed to OFF).
When the fan is ON (no matter the speed level), a long
key press turns the fan OFF and the current fan speed
setting is saved to memory.
Lights:
Press this key to turn ON the lights to the last saved
intensity. If there was no light intensity saved, the lights will
be set on LOW intensity. To change the lights intensity,
press the key again until the desired level is reached
(from LOW, to MEDIUM, to HIGH intensity, to OFF).
When the lights are ON, a long press turns the lights
OFF and the current light intensity is saved to memory.
The next time the lights are turned ON (either with the
light key or the master ON/OFF key), it does so at the
last saved intensity.
Auto (SMART SENSE):
When the fan is OFF, press this key to enable the Auto
mode. When a cooking session is detected, this function
will automatically start or adjust the fan speed according
to the heat detected on the cooktop. The fan will
automatically turn OFF when there is no longer sufficient
heat detected on the cooktop.
When the hood is OFF and not in use for 3 minutes, the
Auto key backlight will automatically turn OFF. Pressing
any key will turn the backlight back ON.
To disable the Auto mode, press for a long time the Auto
key until the backlight turns OFF.
Manual fan speed adjustment in Auto mode:
When the Auto mode is operating, it is possible to
manually change the fan speed using the fan key. The
Auto key backlight will turn OFF to indicate that the Auto
mode is on pause (until the fan has been manually turned
OFF). When the heat is sufficiently low on the cooktop,
the Auto mode function will automatically be re-enabled
and its backlight will turn ON.
Auto Mode Characteristics:
• The Auto Mode sensor measures the temperature
related to cooking activity on the range or cooktop.
• When removing a pan or pot from a hot stove surface,
the fan speed may increase. This is not unusual since
the sensor detects a temperature increase.
• The fan may turn OFF when cooking at a very low
temperature level, especially with induction units.
• The fan may turn OFF temporarily when adding cold or
frozen items in the pan or pot. When the items heat up
sufficiently, the fan will automatically turn back ON.
• When opening the door of a hot oven or when running
a self-cleaning oven, the fan may start automatically.
• When starting to cook, there may be a short delay of
the fan operation while the pot/pan heats up.
• After cooking is finished, it is normal for the fan to
remain ON for a short period of time until the cooking
surface/pot/pan cools down.

Filter Cleaning Reminder
When the user turns the fan OFF, and the fan key
backlight flashes slowly during 30 seconds, then this
means it is time to clean the hood and filter. Refer to the
Maintenance and Cleaning Section on page 22. This will
happen every time the user turns the fan OFF (and the
timer has not been reset).
Once the cleaning is done, at any time during the
30-second signal (and the fan is OFF), a long press of the
fan key will reset the timer and stop the key backlight flashing.
NOTES: 1. Each time a key is pressed, a beep is emitted to acknowledge the command. To disable, when the fan and
lights are OFF, press on the Lights key () for 5 seconds. To put it back, when the fan and lights are OFF,
press again on the Lights key () for 5 seconds.
2. Each time a key is pressed, its backlight turns ON. When a function is turned OFF, so does the corresponding
key backlight.
