Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize noise. Additional Installation Specifications: Use only the fixing screws supplied with the product for installation or, if not supplied, purchase the correct screws type. Use the correct length for the screws which are identified in the Installation Guide. In case of doubt, consult an authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified person. WARNING! Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

Use The hood has been made for use in the internal recirculating filtering version. Cooking fumes and steam are aspirated inside the hood, filtered and cleaned, passing through the fat filter/s and the carbon filter/s that MUST be supplied with the hood. Installation Specialised personnel must carry out both the electrical and the mechanical installation. The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and 70cm 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. Warning! 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. Fig. 4 Warining!
