SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

Read these instructions carefully before using your cooker hood, and keep it carefully. If you follow the instructions, your cooker hood will provide you with many years of good service.

The instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

INSTALLATION

● The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
- The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood. (When the range hood is located above a gas appliance, this distance shall be at least 65 cm. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account. The distance of 65 cm can be reduced for:non-combustible parts of range hoods, and parts operating at safety extra low voltage,Provided these parts do not give access to live parts if deformed;)
- Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the hood.
- For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
- Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
● The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
- If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
- When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
- If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
● Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

As a first step, proceed with the following drawings:

• I line up to the ceiling or up to the upper limit, at the center of the area in which the hood is to be fitted.
  ● A horizontal line A at 980 – 1080 mm above the cooker top.
  ● A horizontal line B at a X mm above the horizontal line A.
  ● A horizontal line C at a 261 mm below the horizontal line A (solution2).

Mark Points:

● Mark a point (1) on the horizontal line A, 80 mm to the right of the vertical reference line.
- Repeat this operation on the other side and on the vertical reference line, checking that the three marks are leveled.
● Mark a point (2) on the horizontal line B, 40 mm to the right of the vertical reference line.
- Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are leveled.
- Mark a point (3) on the horizontal line C, 180 mm to the right of the vertical reference line (solution2).
- Repeat this operation on the other side, checking that the two marks are leveled.

Fix the brackets :

• Drill at the marked points (1)、(2)、(3)(solution 2), using a 10 mm drill bit.
• Insert the Wall Plugs 11 into the holes (1)、(2)、(3)(solution2).
  ● Fix the hood fixing bracket 20 with 3 screws 10 (5 x 50) at the horizontal line A.
  ● Fix a Chimney fixing bracket 21 with 2 screws 10 (5 x 50) at the horizontal line B.

Hook the hood body

● Hook the hood body to the bracket 20.
● Level the hood body itself.
- Lock screws (M5*12) on the hood fixing bracket to prevent the hood body from accidentally sliding off. Remove the filter, from the inside of the hood body, fix the screws 10 to Wall Plugs 11 at the points (3)(solution2).

• Remove the filters one by one pushing them towards the back side of the hood unit and simultaneously pulling downwards.
• Any kind of bending of the filters has to be avoided when washing them. Before fitting them again into the hood make sure that they are completely dry. (The color of the filter surface may change throughout the time but this has no influence to the filter efficiency).
• When fitting the filters into the hood pay attention that they are mounted in correct position the handle facing outwards.

DISPOSAL OF OLD ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES

The European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain, and reduce the impact on human health and the environment.

The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance, it must be separately collected.

Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
