Frequently Asked Questions - The Cylindra Isola FABER

What is the recommended installation height for the hood?

The recommended installation height is 65 to 75 cm above an electric hob and 75 to 85 cm above a gas hob. Observe safety distances for optimal extraction.

How to clean the grease filter?

The aluminum grease filter can be washed in the dishwasher at 65°C or by hand with warm soapy water. Dry it completely before reinstalling. Monthly cleaning is recommended.

When should the carbon filter be replaced?

The activated carbon filter should be replaced every 3 to 6 months depending on use. It is not washable. A saturation indicator may be present on some models.

Is the hood making a normal noise?

Yes, the noise level ranges from 45 dB(A) at speed 1 to 65 dB(A) at intensive speed. A louder noise may indicate a clogged filter or incorrect installation.

For your safety and correct operation of the appliance, read this manual carefully before installation and use. Always keep these instructions with the appliance even if you move or sell it. Users must fully know the operation and safety features of the appliance.

The wire connection has to be done by a specialized technician.

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
• If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be respected.
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
• 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 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• 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. 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.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent.
• Connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place.
• With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging, it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.

Drilling the Ceiling/shelf and fixing the frame

DRILLING THE CEILING/SHELF

• Use a plumb line to mark the centre of the hob on the ceiling/support shelf.
• Place the drilling template 21 provided on the ceiling/support shelf, making sure that the template is in the correct position by lining up the axes of the template with those of the hob. Mark the centres of the holes in the template.
• Drill the holes at the points marked:
• For concrete ceilings, drill for plugs appropriate to the screw size.
• For hollow brick ceilings with wall thickness of 20 mm: drill φ 10 mm (immediately insert the Dowels 11 supplied).
• For wooden beam ceilings, drill according to the wood screws used.
• For wooden shelf, drill φ 7 mm.
• For the power supply cable feed, drill φ 10 mm.
• For the air outlet (Ducted Version), drill according to the diameter of the external air exhaust duct connection.

Insert two screws of the following type, crossing them and leaving 4-5 mm from the ceiling:

• For concrete ceilings, use the appropriate plugs for the screw size (not provided).
• For cavity ceiling with inner space, with wall thickness of approx. 20 mm, use Screws 12h, supplied.
• For wooden beam ceilings, use 4 wood screws (not provided).
• For wooden shelf, use 4 screws 12g with washers 22 and nuts 23, provided.

PREPARATION OF THE FRAME FOR THE HOOD IN RECYCLING VERSION

In case the hood is used in recycling version it is necessary to prepare the frame with all the necessary connection pieces. In order to make the installation easier it is necessary to lengthen the frame:

• Unscrew the two screws 2.1 fixing the upper chimney to the frame and pull the chimney out.
• Unscrew the four safety screws placed at the top in the frame separation area. (A).
• Unscrew the eight metric screws connecting the two columns, placed on both sides of the frame (B).

Installation of components in recycling version:

• Fix the recycling air outlet piece 15 to the upper part of the frame using four 12c screws supplied with the hood.
• At this point, join the flanges with a pipe. In order to calculate the height of the pipe it is necessary to estimate the height of the hood (mm) and subtract 615 mm. (H pipe = H hood - 615).
• Lengthen the frame so that the pipe can be inserted. Place the pipe between the two flanges and block it. Make sure that the height of the frame is correct considering the height of the cooker hood (H frame = H hood - 184). Adjust the height of the frame and tighten again the earlier removed screws. Tighten again the safety screws in order to give more stability to the structure.

Fix the pipe with the pipe clamps 25.

FIXING THE FRAME

• Lift the frame up, making sure that the index over the frame plate is turned forwards.
• Fit the frame slots onto the two screws inserted in the ceiling as above, and turn until reaching the centre of the adjustment slot.
• Tighten the two screws and fasten the other two screws provided; before locking the screws completely, it is possible to adjust the frame by turning it, making sure that the screws do not come out of their housing in the adjustment slot.
• The Frame must be securely fastened so as to support both the weight of the Hood and the stress caused by occasional axial pressure against the fitted Appliance. After fixing, make sure that the base is stable even when the Frame is subjected to lateral stress.
• If the ceiling is not strong enough in the area where the hood is to be fixed, the installer must strengthen the area using suitable plates and counterplates anchored to resistant structures.

Ducted version air exhaust system connection

When installing the ducted version, connect the hood to the chimney using either a flexible or rigid pipe of 150 or 120 mm diameter, the choice of which is left to the installer.

• To install a 120 mm air exhaust connection, insert the reducer flange 9 on the hood body outlet. Fix the pipe using the pipe clamps 25 provided.
• Remove any activated charcoal filters.

Installing the chimney and fixing the hood

When the hood is installed in recycling version, the chimney has to be positioned with the slots upwards. When the hood is installed in ducting version, it has to be positioned in the opposite way.

• Place the chimney on the frame and fix it to the upper part of it with the earlier removed screws. When installing the hood in recycling version, make sure that the slots correspond to the air outlet of the recycling air outlet piece 15.
• Open the lighting unit by slightly pulling the notch. Remove the unit from the hood by sliding the fixing pivot.
• Remove the filter by pushing it towards the back side of the hood unit and simultaneously pulling downwards.
• Remove possible charcoal filters.
• In order to fix the hood body to the frame, insert the 4 screws 12f in their seats. It is necessary to leave at least 4-5 mm gap between the screw heads and the frame plate.
• Hook the hood canopy to the frame and turn it to the left until it reaches the stop, then lock the screws immediately to prevent the hood canopy from falling out accidentally.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Connect the hood to the mains power supply, inserting a two-pole cut-out switch with contact aperture of at least 3 mm along the line.
• Ensure that the supply cable connector is properly inserted into the Suction device socket.
• Hook up the Commands connector Cmd.
• Hook up the Spotlights connector Lux to the socket provided behind the lighting unit cover.
• For the Recirculation Version, fit the Activated Charcoal Odour Filter.
• Replace the filters and the lighting unit.
