Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual. All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined. Caution WARNING! Do not connect the appliance to the mains until the installation is fully complete. Before any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the hood from the mains by removing the plug or disconnecting the home mains switch. Always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance operations. The appliance is not intended for use by children or persons with impaired physical, sensorial or mental faculties, or if lacking in experience or know-how, unless they are under supervision or have been trained in the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be monitored to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Never use the hood without effectively mounted grating.! The hood must NEVER be used as a support surface unless specifically indicated. The premises must be sufficiently ventilated, when the kitchen hood is used together with other gas combustion devices or other fuels. The suctioned air must not be conveyed into a conduit used for the disposal of the fumes generated by appliances that combust gases or other fuels. The flaming of foods beneath the hood itself is severely prohibited. The use of exposed flames is detrimental to the filters and may cause a fire risk, and must therefore be avoided in all circumstances. Any frying must be done with care in order to make sure that the oil does not overheat and burst into flames. As regards the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow the relations provided by the competent authorities. The hood must be regularly cleaned on both the inside and outside (AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, it is in any event necessary to proceed in accordance with the maintenance instructions provided in this manual).. Failure to follow the instructions as concerns hood and filter cleaning will lead to the risk of fires. Do not use or leave the hood without the lamp correctly mounted because of the possible risk of electric shocks. We decline any responsibility for any problems, damage or fires caused to the appliance as the result of the non- observance of the instructions included in this manual.

The symbol on the product, or on the documents accompanying the product, indicates that this appliance may not be treated as household waste. Instead it should be taken to the appropriate collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. Disposal must be carried out in accordance with local environmental regulations for waste disposal. For more detailed information about treatment, recovery and recycling of this product, please contact your local authority. 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 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. Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed. Filter version Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided). Attention! If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted. The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied). The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral suction unit. Installation Fig. 5-6-7 The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and 75cm from gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.14 Electrical connection The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over- current category III, in accordance with installation instructions. Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled. Mounting Before beginning installation:

• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the chosen installation area.

• To facilitate installation, remove the fat filters and the other parts allowed and described here, dismantle and mount it. To remove see also the relative paragraphs.

• Remove the active carbon (*) 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.

• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware in it.

• In addition check whether near the installation area of the hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted) an electric socket is available and it is possible to connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only suction version).

• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g. installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the passage of the discharge tube). 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. Remove the grease filter/s and the carbon filter frame. Fig. 5-6-7-8

1. Adjust extension of the hood support structure, as the

final height of the hood depends on this, and remember that with installation completed the hood must be at least 50 cm above the cook-top for electric cookers and 75 cm for gas or mixed cookers.

2. Fix the two sections of the structure using 8 screws.

3. Place the ceiling hole diagram directly above the cook-

top (the center of the diagram must match the center of the cook-top and the edges must be parallel to the sides of the cook-top – the side of the diagram with the wording FRONT corresponds to the control panel side). Prepare the electrical connection.

4. Drill as shown (6 holes for 6 wall plugs – 4 plugs for

fixture), screw the outer screws leaving a space of about 1 cm. between the screw head and the ceiling.

5. Fit an exhaust pipe inside the truss and connect it to the

motor compartment connection ring (exhaust pipe and fixing brackets are not supplied).

6. Hook the frame onto the 4 screws (see step 4).

CAUTION! The side of the truss with connection box corresponds to the side of the control panel with hood assembled.

7. Tighten the 4 screws.

8. Insert and tighten another 2 screws in the remaining free

holes for secure fixing.

9. Carry out the electrical connection to the mains power

supply, only turn on the power supply upon completion of assembly.

10. For extractor versions (10A), connect the other end of the

exhaust pipe to the flue. For filter versions (10F), fit deflector F to the truss and secure it to the bracket supplied using 4 screws, then connect the exhaust pipe to the connection ring located on the deflector.

11. Remove the fixing tabs placed on the lower part of the

chimney flue, set aside the tabs and screws.

12. Apply the tabs to the inside of the upper section of the

(13a) to the pylon (13b). The upper sections are recognizable by the air exit perforations for use in the filter version.

14. Block the sections with 2 screws (14a) to be inserted on

the tabs already mounted on one section of the chimney flue (14b – see also the mounting sequence 11 -12).

15. Remove the grease filter and slide in the lower section of

the cooker hood (during this operation slightly widen the two sections to ease the insertion). The front side of the cooker hood is recognizable by the slit opening provided for the control panel. Attention! During this operation ensure to extract the control panel plate and the electrical connection cables for the lamps through the slit opening.

Fix the lower section of the cooker hood to the pylon from

he bottom using 6 screws (16a), and on the sides using 4 screws (16b).

17. Introduce the cables CONNECTED to the lamps and

connect the control panel to the plate. ATTENTION!

18. The double sided adhesive tape supplied should be cut

into 8 segments, then remove the protection covering from both sides and apply the segments close to the screws that fix the chimney flues to the structure (see illustration for correct positioning).

19. Apply the 4 masks (supplied) to cover the fixing points of

the lower sections of the chimney flue (ATTENTION THE MASKS FOR THE LOWER CHIMNEY FLUE ARE RECOGNIZABLE BY THEIR NARROWER WIDTH). The wider masks are to be used for the upper chimney flue, and should be cut to size.

20. Hook the control panel to the opening slit so that the

ON/OFF light switch is facing downwards. Remount the carbon filter frame and the fat/s filter/s and check the perfect functioning of the hood. Only for products supplied in stainless steel and aluminum: Remove the protective covering taking care not to damage the metal and finish (glazing). Description of the hood Fig. 1

Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse. Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket. Cleaning The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

WARNING: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning

recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations. Grease filter Fig. 2 Traps cooking grease particles. This 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 discolour slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity. To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle. Charcoal filter (filter version only) Fig. 3 It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking. The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months using hot water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function and leave dishes out). Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then remove the mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to dry completely. Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is damaged. Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs (g) 90° that affix the chimney to the cooker hood. Insert the pad (i) of activated carbon into the frame (h) and fit the whole back into its housing (j). It is possible to use a traditional carbon filter, neither washable nor regenerable, to be replaced every 3 - 4 months. The filter holder frame of the carbon filter is welded together; the eventual frame supplied with the hood is not, therefore, to be used. Insert it into its housing and fix it turning the 2 plastic knobs. Replacing lamps Fig. 4 Disconnect the hood from the electricity. Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

• Use a small screwdriver as a lever on the borders of the lamp in order to remove the lightbulb.

• Slide out the lightbulb to be replaced and replace with a new 12V 20W MAX 30° Ø35 12V GU4.
