Suggestions for a correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact: Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapor and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odor 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.

MALFUNCTIONS

If something appears not to be working properly, do the following simple checks before calling Technical Service:

If the hood is not working:

Check that: - The power has not been disconnected. - A speed has been selected.

If the hood performs inefficiently:

Check that:

• The motor speed selected is sufficient for the amount of smoke and vapours released.
• The kitchen is sufficiently ventilated to allow air intake.
• The charcoal filter is not worn (hood in filtering version).

If the hood has turned off during normal functioning:

Check that: - The power has not been disconnected. - the omnipolar disconnection device has not tripped.

If the hood fails to operate correctly, briefly disconnect it from the mains power supply for almost 5 sec. Then connect it in again and try once more before contacting the Technical Assistance Service.
