Attention

Keep this user guide with your appliance. If the appliance is ever sold or transferred to another person, ensure that the new owner receives the user guide. Please become familiar with these recommendations before installing and using your oven. They were written for your safety and the safety of others.

SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

• This oven was designed for use by private persons in their homes.
• This appliance is to be used by adults.

Make sure that children do not touch and that they do not treat it as a toy. Make sure that they do not touch the appliance's control panel.

• When you receive the appliance, unpack or have it unpacked immediately. Give it an over-all general inspection. Make note of any concerns or reservations on the delivery slip and make sure to keep a copy of this form.
• Your appliance is intended for standard household use. Do not use it for commercial or industrial purposes or for any other purpose than that for which it was designed.
• Do not modify or attempt to modify any of the characteristics of this appliance. This would be dangerous to your safety.
• Repairs must only be carried out by an approved specialist.
• Always unplug the hood before cleaning it or performing other maintenance acts.
• Provide adequate ventilation for the room in the case of simultaneous use of the hood and other appliances powered by an energy source other than electricity. This will prevent the hood from aspirating the combustion gases.
• You should never "flambé" dishes under the hood or operate gas rings under the hood without placing cookware on them (the flames sucked up into the hood can damage the appliance).
• When frying food under the appliance, you must carefully monitor the preparation at all times.
  Oils and grease brought to very high temperatures can catch fire.
• Respect the recommended frequency of cleanings and filter replacements. The accumulation of grease deposits may cause a fire.
• The hood should never be used over a

combustible fuel burning stove (wood, coal, etc.).

• Never use steam or high-pressure devices to clean your appliance (requirement imposed by electrical safety).

• With a view to constantly improving our products, we reserve the right to modify their technical, functional or aesthetic characteristics, making any changes to their features considered necessary or desirable in view of technical progress.

• In order to easily locate the reference information for your appliance, we recommend that you note these data on the "After-Sales Service Department and Customer Relations" page.

Your hood can be connected to this outlet using a flue (minimum 125mm that is enamelled, in aluminium, flexible or made of inflammable material).

Your cooker hood is a filtering version. All you need to do is to remove the charcoal filters first.

- USING THE FILTERING MODE

If you do not posses an oulet to the exterior (fig. 2)

All of our appliances can be used in recycling mode.

The air and steam taken up by the unit are purified with charcoal filters and returned to the environment.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

During installation and maintenance operations, the appliance must be unplugged from the electrical grid; fuses must be cut off or removed. The electrical connections are made before the appliance is installed in its housing.

Ensure that

• the electrical installation has sufficient voltage,
• the electrical wires are in good condition,
• the diameter of the wires complies with the installation requirements.

Warning

This appliance must be grounded.

We cannot be held responsible for any accident resulting from an inexistent, defective or incorrect ground lead.

In case your appliance is not furnished with a non separating flexible cable and has no plug, or has not got any other device ensuring omnipolar disconnection from the electricity main, with a contact opening distance of at least 3mm such separating device ensuring disconnection from the main must be included in the fixed installation. This appliance is delivered with a H05VVF power cord that has three- 0.75mm^2 conductors (neutral, phase and ground). It must be connected to the main power supply (which should be a 230-240V single phase current) via a CE160083 standardised socket that should remain accessible after installation, in keeping with installation guidelines.

If the power cable is damaged, call the after-sales service department in order to avoid danger.

Warning

If the electrical installation at your residence requires any changes in order to hook up your appliance, call upon a professional electrician.

Warning

If the hood displays any malfunctions, unplug the appliance or remove the fuse corresponding to the electrical socket where your appliance is plugged in.

ASSEMBLING THE HOOD

Warning

The hood must be installed in compliance with all applicable regulations concerning the ventilation of premises. In France these regulations are described in DTU 61.1 from the CSTB. In particular, the evacuated air should never be conveyed to a duct used to evacuate smoke from appliances that use gas or other combustible fuels. Unused ducts may only be used after approval from a competent specialist.

The distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lower part of the hood must be at least 650~mm . If the instructions for installation for the hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.

IMPORTANT: So as not to damage your product, during installation USE ONLY THE SCREWS PROVIDED. Make sure these are used as shown in the following instructions. To compensate possible depth voids between the appliance and the wall, a plastic SPACING BAR to be fixed at the back of the appliance by means of the three screws A is included (fig. 3). The 3 screws A to be used are contained in the accessory bag attached to the plastic spacing bar. Cut the spacing bar according to the distance to be adjusted.

Install the flange in the device air outlet and press slightly (fig.4).

ASSEMBLY UNDER A PENSILE CUPBOARD

The following operations are essential for assembly:

Install the wiring system
Prepare the air venting hole if your appliance is to be installed in the ducting mode.

Fixation (fig. 5):

Make the 4 necessary fixing holes in the bottom of the cupboard and cut the air venting hole. Move the hood close to the bottom of the wall unit and then connect the two units by means of the 4 self-tapping screws supplied together with the appliance.

- Ducting mode

Connect the flange of the hood with the air venting hole made previously in the wall/ceiling by means of an adequate tube.

Make the electrical connections.

Warning This is

This is the filtering version of your cooker hood; you must first remove the charcoal filters.

Tip

For optimal use of your appliance, we recommend that you connect the hood to a 150 mm-diameter flue (not delivered with the appliance). Minimise the number of angles and bends and the lengths of the flue. In the event that the hood will be operated using out-door evacuation, you should ensure a sufficient inflow of fresh air to avoid a pressure deficiency in the room.

Non-return valve

In the case of installation with air evacuation to the outside, fitting the non-return valve prevents the wind from entering and the air from returning.

Caution: Before fastening the air exhaust pipe to the motor, check that the non-return valve on the air vent can move freely.

- Filtering mode

Connect an adequate pipe to the connecting flange of the appliance so that it conveys the air up to the top of the pensile cupboard (pipe is not provided).

Make the electrical connections.
