• 1 HOW TO INSTALL THE HOOD

In order to ensure the Downdraft proper operation, installation instructions shall be carefully followed.

1) Drill a 507x114 mm hole in the perfect centre of the two hobs (fig. 1).
2) In case of gas hobs, the minimum distance from the downdraft edge to the hob rear edge shall be of a least 60 mm.
3) Before making the hole, check that there are no structural or other parts inside the cabinet, where the appliance is to be placed, which could hinder a proper installation. Check that the overall dimensions of the Downdraft and its motor are compatible with the cabinet so that installation can be carried out properly.
4) Place the suctioning motor under the appliance, making sure to match the downdraft air outlet with the motor air inlet (fig.2). The size of the duct used to connect the two appliance is 220x90mm, therefore it shall be cut according to the cabinet height. Rotate the motor by directing the air outlet towards either right or left, as shown in fig. 3, based on your installation needs. The motor air inlet shall be moved as much as backwards as possible: to do that, rotate the flange as shown in figure 3A. Figure 4 shows the motor directed towards the two options available: one motor has the air outlet oriented to the right and the other one to the left.
5) Apply the glue on the lower side of the frame (fig. 5).
6) Fit the Downdraft inside the cabinet by inserting it from above, without removing the glass and panel protections.
7) The appliance frame shall perfectly adhere to the kitchen upper worktop.
8) Secure the hood inside the cabinet by using the two brackets provided. Fix the two brackets on the sides of the appliance and then couple them, as shown in fig. 6.

9) Fasten the clamping screws, as shown in fig. 7, using a screwdriver rather than an electric drill. Be careful not to excessively tighten the screws, as it may damage the appliance.

If the cabinet dimensions do not allow the use of the brackets shown in figures 6 and 7, other brackets suitable for floor-fixing are provided with the appliance. In such a case, fix the brackets either on the front or rear side of the downdraft, as shown in figure 8, then secure the appliance using the two floor-screws, as shown in fig. 9.

Fit the air exhaust duct (not provided with the appliance). Connect the other end of the duct towards the outside of the cabinet if you choose to have your hood working in filtering mode or towards the outside of the building if you choose to have your hood working in suctioning mode.

Caution: do not drill any other hole on the appliance, in order to prevent any damage on the internal sliding components and on the electric ones, as well.

10) Connect the appliance to the power supply.
11) Open the glass front panel, (see the 'How the hood works' section) then take the grease filter from the packaging and fit it, as shown in fig. 10.

USAGE

This appliance is intended to suck cooking fumes, greases and steam. It has been designed to work in both suctioning mode, with outside evacuation, and filtering mode.

Exhausting piping is not supplied with the appliance.

FILTERING VERSION

In case fumes and vapour cannot be discharged to the outside, the appliance can be used in the filtering mode, Activated charcoal filters are required in this operation mode (fig. 10). The air recycled through the charcoal filters is then re-circulated into the kitchen, thanks to a duct conveying the air on one side of the cabinet.

GREASE FILTER REMOVAL, ACTIVATED CHARCOAL FILTER INSTALLATION

Grease filters and charcoal filters removing and fitting operations shall be carried out with the downdraft open. To open the downdraft, push the key ☐.

Remove the grease filters to reach the charcoal filters. Charcoal filters shall be replaced (fig. 10-11) accordingly to the actual use of the Downdraft, in any case at least once every 6 months.
