Use
The hood is conceived for the suction of cooking fumes and steam and is destined only for domestic use.
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.
Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about 10 degrees) and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the outside.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length. ! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90° ). Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section. Use a duct as smooth as possible inside. The duct must be made of certified material.

Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and can be obtained from your usual retailer.
The filter removes the grease and smells from the extracted air before sending it back into the room through the upper outlet grid.
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 45cm from electric cookers and 50cm 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 power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection)
or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.
The hood is provided with a special power cable; if the cable is damaged, request a new one from Technical Service.
Mounting
Before beginning installation:

The exhaust air is discharged through an exhaust pipe connected to the flange.
The diameter of the exhaust pipe must match the diameter of the connecting ring.
Warning! The pipe is not supplied and must therefore be purchased separately.
In the horizontal part, the exhaust pipe must be slightly inclined (at an angle of about 10°) so that the exhaust air can be discharged more easily.
If the hood has charcoal filters, they must be removed.
Connect the exhaust pipe and the exhaust outlet with the same diameter as the air inlet (connecting flange).
Using exhaust pipes and outlets with a smaller diameter will reduce the efficiency of use and increase the noise level.
Therefore, we disclaim all responsibility for the above! Use only short exhaust ducts.
! Use an exhaust duct with the minimum number of bends (maximum bend angle: 90°). Do not use a duct with a rough inner surface. ! The material of the exhaust duct must comply with the standards.

After switching off, the appliance can be turned on again. To use the hood in your mode, you need to install a filter system with activated carbon.
Installation
The distance between the bottom of the hood and the cooking surface must be at least 45 cm for electric cookers, and 50 cm for gas and combination cookers.
It is necessary to take into account the distance specified in the instructions for installation of gas cookers.

The voltage in the electrical network must correspond to the characteristics indicated on the plate, which is located inside the hood. If the hood is equipped with a plug for connecting to the electrical network, then connect the plug to a socket that meets current standards and is within reach, so that you can disconnect the appliance from the network. If the hood is not equipped with a plug (direct connection to the electrical network), or the socket is not within reach, then install a reliable disconnecting device that ensures complete disconnection from the network under conditions of overvoltage category III, in full compliance with installation rules.
Attention! Before you turn on the hood again and check the correctness of operation, make sure that the network fuse is installed correctly.
The hood has a special power cord; in case of cord damage, replace it in the technical service department.
Installation
Before starting installation:
- Check that the size of the purchased hood fits the chosen installation location. Remove the carbon filter if present (see also the relevant section). The filter will be reinstalled if you want to use the hood in recirculation mode.
- Check that there are no objects left inside the hood that were placed there during transportation (e.g., packages with screws, warranty cards, etc.). If there are, remove them and keep them. If possible, remove and move away the furniture that is under the hood and around the installation area, to ensure free access to the wall/ceiling where the hood will be attached. If this is not possible, protect the furniture and other items during installation. Choose a flat surface, cover it with a protective covering, place the hood on it, and proceed with installation. Also check that in the installation area of the hood (in the zone, including the hood installation area) there is a mains socket and an opening for the exhaust pipe, if you intend to use it (only in exhaust mode). Perform all necessary work (e.g., installation of the mains socket and/or making the opening for the exhaust pipe).
The hood comes with screws for fixing, designed for the most common types of walls/ceilings. However, it is necessary to consult a qualified technician to check the suitability of the materials depending on the type of wall or ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to support the weight of the hood.
Operation
Built-in electronic control and control of the concentration of chemical agents. We recommend turning on the extractor 5 minutes before starting to cook and leaving it on for 15 minutes after cooking is finished.
