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.

• Do not connect the appliance to the mains until the installation is fully complete.

• 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. • The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliance burning gas or other fuels.

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 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.

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.

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.

Model B CAUTION! 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.

First speed (T1) Press T1 to activate the first speed. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light. Press T1 again to turn the hood off. Second speed (T2) Press T2 to activate the second speed. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light. Press T2 again to turn the hood off.

Third speed and BOOSTER (T3) model A only When the hood is off or with the first or second speed active, the third speed can be activated by pressing the button T3 and the LED will turn on with a fixed light. If T3 is pressed again, the booster turns on. The booster can only be activated if the third speed is already active. When the booster is on, the LED T3 starts to flash. While the booster is working, it is possible to switch to the first or second speed by pressing the desired speed button T1 or T2, the booster will turn off and the selected speed will be activated. When the booster is on, press T3 again to turn the hood off. After 5’ the booster automatically turns off and the third speed is automatically activated.

The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being fed back into the room. In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.

As described in the installation drawings perform 6 holes (8 mm diameter, 40 mm deep), in the positions shown in the drilling template, to fix the hood support bracket and the exhaust flue. After installation, check that the hood and exhaust flue are perfectly aligned.

Third speed (T3) model B only Press T3 to activate the second speed. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light. Press T3 again to turn the hood off.

Before beginning installation: • Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area. • Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version. • Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

Timer (T4) The timer can be activated when the first, second or third speed is active. When the function is activated, both the LED of the Timer (T4) and that of the previously selected speed (T1/T2/T3) turn on with a fixed light. The duration of the timer depends on the selected speed: First speed T1 = duration 20’ Second speed T2 = duration 15’. Third speed T3 = duration 10’. When a speed is timed, the timer can be deactivated by pressing T4, or one of the other two inactive speeds. To turn the hood off, press the speed again to which the timer had previously been linked. NOTE: model A only The timer cannot be activated when the booster is active. When the time expires, the hood turns off. When a speed is timed, it is possible to switch to other speeds by pressing the desired speed button, this operation will turn the timer off.

Light (T5) The light can be activated at any time by pressing key T5. When the function is activated, the LED turns on with a fixed light.

Fig. 19 It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking. The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter. In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated. Circular charcoal filter Apply one on each side as cover to both the shield grids of the motor impeller, then turn clockwise. For the disassembly, turn counter-clockwise.

Cleaning Clean using ONLY a cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

Grease filter Fig. 18 Traps cooking grease particles. The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolor slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

Filter setting Activation or deactivation of the filter indicators is only possible with the hood off. To access the configuration menu, hold pressed T2+T3, once inside the menu T1 will start to flash. The default setting is:  grease filter indicator (T2) on, therefore active;  odour filter indicator (T3) off, therefore not activated. T2 activates/deactivates the grease filter indicator. T3 activates/deactivates the odour filter indicator. To exit the menu, hold pressed T1 or wait 10’’

Replacing lamps The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED technology. The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10 times longer than the traditional lamps and allow to save 90% electrical energy.

Filter reset The hood signals the need for filter maintenance at regular intervals:  grease filter every 40 hours;  odour filter every 160 hours. In this case, with the hood off, when the user touches any button the interface signals two types of needs for a period of 10’’:  if T1+T2 flash: grease filter maintenance;  if T1+T3 flash: odour filter maintenance. During the 10’’ it is possible to reset the grease filter by pressing T1+T2 and to reset the odour filter by pressing T1+T3. After the reset, the button combinations will flash rapidly twice. The interface will now work as normal. Please note: During the 10", the hood will work normally but without any visual feedback regarding the speed buttons. If during the 10'' no operations are carried out, the LEDs will stop flashing and the visual feedback will return to normal.

For replacement, contact the technical service.
