Due to the fact that the suction/operational assembly is installed in various product types, its perimeter dimensions may vary; this may also lead to a variation in fixing points.
Disposal of household appliances:
- When disposing of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
- The European Directive 2002/96/EC 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 optimise 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 may take their old appliance to public waste collection areas, other communal collection areas, or if national legislation allows return it to a retailer when purchasing a similar new product. All major household appliance manufacturers are active in the creation of systems to manage the collection and disposal of old appliances.

The accessories required for the installation of the hood can be found inside the latter. The hood is convertible and can therefore be installed in either the OUTDOOR VENTING or the AIR RECIRCULATION mode.
- Before installing and/or using this hood, please read the instructions carefully and thoroughly.
- Before you install the hood, make sure the voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) indicated on the serial and technical data plate located inside the appliance correspond with the voltage and frequency available in the place of installation.
- After having removed the packaging, check that the appliance is intact. If in doubt, do not use the appliance and contact professionally qualified personnel.
- All installation and adjustment operations should be carried out by a qualified technician in accordance with the regulations in force. Specific indications are given in the section intended for the installer.
- Clean the hood according to the manufacturer's instructions, especially for the deposits formed on the dirty surfaces to avoid any risks of fire.
- Ensure the burners are always covered so as not to cause the hood filter to overheat.
- When frying food, never leave the pan unattended: the oil inside the pan could overheat and catch fire. If the pan contains oil which has already been used to fry, the risk of spontaneous ignition is even greater.
- It is strictly forbidden to flambé food beneath the cooker hood.
- The lowest part of the hood must be positioned at least 65~cm above the hob.If the installation instructions for the gas cooker specify a greater distance, take this measurement into consideration when installing the hood.
- This hood is intended for domestic use only.
- This hood may only be used for the extraction of fumes and smoke produced while cooking foods.
12.The appliance must not be installed above stoves with a top radiant hotplate.
Ducted ("air extraction") version:
13 The air collected should not be conveyed in a duct used for the discharge of exhaust fumes from appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity.
14. Suitable ventilation of the room must be provided when the hood and appliances that run on energy sources other than electricity are used at the
same time.
- If the hood is used in the outdoor venting mode, check the condition of the exhaust duct should the latter have been left unused for an extended period of time.
- Remember to pay attention to the local norms in force and to the regulations from the competent authorities on the subject of air exhaust when the hood is operating in the outdoor venting mode.
All advice given on this matter must be followed scrupulously in order to avoid possible fires.
We shall not be held responsible for any damage or fires resulting from the non-observation of the above instructions when using this appliance.
Information relating to installation
The hood can operate in the following ways:
Ducted ("air extraction") version:
Smoke and steam are drawn in, then directed through a suitable duct (sold separately) until they are expelled outside or into a purpose-built shared exhaust duct.
If fitted, remove the carbon filter.
The airflow deviator must not be installed.
Filter ("air recirculation") version:
Smoke and steam are drawn in and purified using an active carbon filter, then redirected back into the kitchen with the help of the airflow deviator.
Make sure that the hood is already fitted with a carbon filter; if necessary, order one and install it.
You will also need a short piece of ducting (sold separately) to connect the motor assembly outlet to the flow deviator.
Operation
- The hood has several operating speeds. For more efficient performance, use the lowest suction level when there is only a small amount of smoke or steam and the higher suction level when there are large amounts of smoke and steam; there is also an intermediate suction level, which should be used when the amount of smoke and steam produced by the cooking process is at a normal level.
- We recommend that the hood is switched on a few minutes before the cooking process is started, and that it is only switched off after all the odours have been completely eliminated.

Clean the external surfaces of the appliance regularly.
To clean the hood thoroughly, use a cloth which has been dampened with alcohol or any of the special cleaning products currently available in shops.
Do not use products which contain abrasive substances.
Cleaning the grease filter
The grease filter is used to trap suspended particles of grease which are produced during the cooking process.
It should be cleaned once a month using non-aggressive detergent, either manually or in the dishwasher, at a low temperature using a short cycle.
If cleaned in the dishwasher the filter may become opaque over time, but its filtering capacity will not be diminished in any way.
Remove it using the handle attached, pushing it backwards then pulling it downwards (Fig. 1).
After washing it, dry it carefully and replace it, following the above instructions in reverse order.
For the HSE 159 IX model only, the grease filter may be replaced by the active carbon filter kit inside the packaging.
