ENGLISH GB GENERAL Carefully read the following important information regarding

installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information

booklet accessible for further consultations. The appliance

has been designed for use in the ducting version (air exhaust

to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering version (air circulation on the

inside – Fig.1A) or with external motor (Fig.1C).

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultane-

ously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on the air

in the environment and are supplied by other than electrical

energy, as the cooker hood removes the air from the environ-

ment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The

negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa

(4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment

for a safe operation of the cooker hood.Follow the local laws

applicable for external air evacuation.

Before connecting the model to the electricity network:

- Control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance)

to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to the

•ElectricConnection:

- The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore

no earth cable is necessary. The plug must be easily accessible

after the installation of the appliance. If the appliance is equip-

ped with power cord without plug, a suitably dimensioned

omnipolar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between con-

tacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity

supply in compliance with the load and current regulations.

- The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

•  The minimum distance between the support surfaces of

the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of

the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm. If a connection tube

composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be pla-

ced outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood

exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for

evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other

than an electrical source. Before proceeding with the assembly

operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.5) so that the

unit is easier to handle.

- In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version

prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.

•  We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the

same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a

smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be

reduced and its operation may become noisier.

•Fixingtothewall:

Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2). Fix

the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position

to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted,

definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig.4). For the

various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to

the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If

the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product,

check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the

hood is to be fixed.

•Fixingthedecorativetelescopicflue:

Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of

the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the

ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare

the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support bra-

cket of the upper flue (Fig.3). Then fix it to the ceiling using

the screws A (Fig.3) in such a way that it is in line with your

hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated

in Fig.2. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a- 10 -

connection pipe (Fig.4). Insert the upper flue into the lower

flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws B provided

(Fig.4), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with

the screws B (Fig.3). To transform the hood from a ducting

version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal

filters and follow the installation instructions.

•Filteringversion:

Install the hood and the two flues as described in the pa-

ragraph for installation of the hood in ducting version. To

assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained

in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer

as accessory. The filters must be applied to the suction unit

positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning

them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.6).

•  We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before

any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is

left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order

to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.

The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on

constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active

carbon filter both require special attention.

•Theanti-greasefilter is responsible retaining the grease

particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging

with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.

- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2

months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using

non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher

at low temperatures and on short cycles.

- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does

not give the right to claim their replacement.

•Theactivecarbonfilters are used to purify the air that is

sent back into the room and its function is to mitigate the

unpleasant odours produced by cooking.

- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced

at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal

depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,

on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-

grease filter is cleaned.

- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,

with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at

a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be

complete without dishware). Remove excess water without

damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the

mat dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at

a maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable

charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be

repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least

every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.

using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral

liquid detergents that are non abrasive.

•  The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking

and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The

prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases

the average duration of the bulbs.

•  If the appliance is equipped with courtesy lights it is possible

to use them for general room lighting for a prolonged amount

•Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning

warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters

entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the

suggested instructions.
