GB Instructions for use and installation

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from

incorrect or improper installation. • The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and installation). • Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood. • For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing. Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible. • Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.). 2° • If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood. • The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room). • In the event of damage to the power cable, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or by the technical service department, in order to prevent any risks.

• If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance specified above, this has to be taken into account. Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled. • Use only screws and small parts in support of the hood. Warning: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards. • Connect the hood to the mains through a two-pole switch having a contact gap of at least 3 mm.

• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to

eliminate kitchen smells. • Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed. • Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation. • Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides. • Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flames. • Do not flambè under the range hood; risk of fire. • This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. • This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• “CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.”

• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before carrying out • • • • •

any maintenance work. Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period (Fire hazard). The Grease filters must be cleaned every 2 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage, and can be washed in a dishwasher. The Activated charcoal filter is not washable and cannot be regenerated, and must be replaced approximately every 4 months of operation, or more frequently for particularly heavy usage. "Failure to carry out cleaning as indicated will result in a fire hazard". Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.

Low speed, used for a continuous and silent air change in the presence of light cooking vapour. 2. Medium speed, suitable for most operating conditions given the optimum treated air flow/noise level ratio. 3. Maximum speed, used for eliminating the highest cooking vapour emission, including long periods.
