Use

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

Ducting 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). Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange). Using 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.

Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Filter version

In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the steam of cooking outside, the hood in the filter version can be used mounting the F deflector on the flue and one or more carbon filters (on the basis of the model possessed). The fumes and steam are recycled into the kitchen through upper grill H.

Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted.

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 65 cm from electric cookers and 75 cm from gas or mixed cookers.

If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Use

The hood is designed to operate in extraction mode (air exhausted outside) or recirculation mode (air recirculated inside).

The hood exhaust outlet with the upper outlet opening in the wall discharges smoke outside (version with external air exhaust - the exhaust pipe and its fastening are not included in the kit). Connect the outlet to the exhaust pipe with a diameter corresponding to the air outlet opening (connecting flange).

Installing pipes with a smaller diameter will reduce the suction power of the air and sharply increase the noise level.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by failure to follow the instructions.

Use a pipe with the minimum necessary length. Use a pipe with the minimum number of bends (maximum bend: 90°). Avoid sharp changes in the pipe section.

Attention! If the hood is equipped with a charcoal filter, remove it.

Recirculation version

If the discharge of smoke and steam from the kitchen is not possible, you can use the recirculation version. When installing the deflector and one or more charcoal filters (depending on your model), the filtered air is recirculated into the kitchen through the upper grille.

Attention! If the hood is not equipped with a charcoal filter, install it before use.

Installation

The distance between the lower edge of the hood and the cooking surface must be at least 65 cm for electric hobs, and at least 75 cm for gas or combination hobs.

Grease filters

Fig. 16-18

Remove the grease filter, located under the hood.

The filter should be washed with non-abrasive detergents, in the dishwasher or by hand at a low temperature, in an economical cycle.

Washing in the dishwasher may cause some discoloration of the grease filter, but its filtering characteristics remain absolutely unchanged.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring-loaded handle of the filter towards you.

Charcoal filter (only for recirculation version)

Fig. 17

Remove the grease filters from the hood.

Saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after a more or less long period of operation, determined by the type of hood and the frequency of cleaning of the grease filters. In any case, replace the cartridge at the latest every 4 months.

The charcoal filter cannot be washed or regenerated.

Install the charcoal filter

Cover the filter with the protective grilles on both sides to protect the motor rotor, then insert the filter along the guide.
