Never use the hood without effectively mounted grating.!

The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless specifically indicated.

The premises must be sufficiently ventilated, when the kitchen hood is used together with other gas combustion devices or other fuels.

The suctioned air must not be conveyed into a conduit used for the disposal of the fumes generated by appliances that combust gases or other fuels.

The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited.

The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and may cause a fire risk, and must therefore be avoided in all circumstances.

Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that the oil does not overheat and burst into flames.

As regards the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow the relations provided by the competent authorities.

The hood must be regularly cleaned on both the inside and outside (AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, it is in any event necessary to proceed in accordance with the maintenance instructions provided in this manual)..

Failure to follow the instructions as concerns hood and filter cleaning will lead to the risk of fires.

Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly mounted because of the possible risk of electric shocks.

Use

The hood is supplied in the FILTERING version and is used without an extracted fumes discharger conduit.

Fumes and steam are recycled through the X deflector.

If you intend using the product in the SUCTION version, it is necessary to have an evacuation conduit going from the upper Y exit to the extraction hole towards the exterior.

In this case a connection ring has to be installed on the Y extraction hole and the carbon filter removed.

Specialised personnel must carry out both the electrical and the mechanical installation.

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

The mains tension must correspond to the tension shown on the characteristic label situated inside the hood.

The product is meant for connecting directly to the mains supply, therefore apply a regulation bipolar switch that ensures complete disconnection from the mains in the conditions of category III over-tension, conforming to the installation rules.

ATTENTION! Detail B (fixing bracket to the ceiling - Fig. 1) is equipped with a conductor (yellow-green) that must be connected to the earth of the domestic electrical plant.

Maintenance

Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse.

Cleaning

The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING:

Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks.

Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.

Grease filter

Traps cooking grease particles.

This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.

When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
