TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS B The technical data pertaining to the electric appliance The technical specifications of the ap-

pliance are shown on the rating plates located inside the range hood.

(Section reserved for qualified installers of the range hood)

The distance between the hob and the lowest part of the rangehood is normally at least 65 cm

(see figure C1). This distance is measuresd in the lowest part of the rangehood not operating

at safety voltage. Based on this detail provided by European Standards, the distance may be

reduced in some models as specified in the general catalogue. If the instructions for installa-

tion for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.

In the outside exhaust version, the diameter of the fume discharge duct must be no smaller

than the range hood connection.

In the horizontal sections, the duct must slope slightly (around 10%) upwards, so as to better

convey the air outside of the room.

Avoid using angled pipes, make sure that the pipes are at least of the minimum length.

Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere.

If a boiler, stove, fireplace, etc. that uses gas or other fuels is being used at the same time,

make sure the room where the fumes are extracted is well ventilated, in compliance with the

current regulations.

E RANGE HOOD WITH OUTSIDE DISCHARGE

In this version, the fumes and steam from the kitchen are conveyed outside through an exhaust

The exhaust conveyor that protrudes from the upper part of the range hood must be connected

to a duct that carries the fumes and steam outside. In this version, the charcoal filters, if fitted,

should be removed; to do this, see the instructions in point F. There must be adequate ventila-

tion of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or

other fuels, according to the standard.

Deviation for Germany:

When the range hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity are simulta-

neously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4x10 E-5 bar).

F RECIRCULATING RANGE HOOD (with filter)

In this version, the air passes through charcoal filters for purification, and is then recirculated

back into the kitchen.

Check that the charcoal filters are fitted to the motor, and if not, install them as described in

the instructions in point H.

If the hood is of filtering type, remove the non-return valve fitted at the motor’s outlet.

For maximum efficiency, the third speed should be used when there are strong odours or a lot

of steam, the second speed in normal conditions, and the first speed for keeping the air clean

with minimum energy consumption. The range hood should be switched on when starting to

cook, and left on until the odours disappear.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING L Constant maintenance ensures the correct operation and efficiency of the appliance over

time. Special attention should be paid to the metal grease-trapping filters and the charcoal

filters. Frequent cleaning of the filters and their supports will ensure that fats and grease do

not accumulate on the range hood, with the consequent risk of fire.

1. METAL GREASE-TRAPPING FILTERS These trap the fat and grease particles suspended in the air, and therefore should be

washed every month in hot water and detergent, without bending them. Wait until they

are completely dry before repositioning them. To remove and replace these filters, see

the instructions in point H1. This operation should be performed at regular intervals.

2. CHARCOAL FILTERS These trap the odours present in the stream of air that passes through them. The air is

purified by passing a number of times through the filters and being recirculated into the

kitchen. The charcoal filters cannot be cleaned, and should be replaced on average every

3-4 months (according to use). To replace the charcoal filters, see the instructions in point

3. CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE It is advised to clean the external hood surfaces at least every 15 days in order to avoid

that oily or greasy substances affect the steel surfaces.

The ouside of the range hhod should be cleaned using a damp cloth and neutral liquid

detergent or denatured alcohol.

In case of fingerprint-less finish (fasteel) clean only with water and neutral soap using

clean with a soft cloth, rinse and wipe dry thoroughly. Do not use products that contain

abrasive substances, rough cloths or cloths specifically designed for cleaning steel. Using

abrasive substances or rough cloths will inevitably damage the finish of steel.

The steel surface will be irrevocably damaged if the instructions above are not complied

Keep these instructions together with the instructions for use of your hood.
