The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided). Fig. 6 Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided). Fig. 6 Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted. The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied). The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral suction unit.

Attention! The chimney is predisposed for installation of the filter Version.

In certain models where it is required to use the cooker hood in the suction version then it is possible to overturn the upper section of the chimney and insert it inside the lower section of the chimney so that the air-exit perforations are not visible. The chimneys in which this operation is possible are recognizable by their bracket fixing points G which are repeated also in the lower side of the upper section of the chimney. Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and

65cm from gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
