ALLGEMEINES

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).

SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously 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 environment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion.

The negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4× 10^-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 network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
• If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with another cable or a special assembly, which may be obtained direct from the manufacturer or from the Technical Assistance Centre.

2. Warning!

In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.

A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is operating.
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after prolonged use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambé cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood.
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialised personnel.

Electric Connection:

This is a class I, appliance and must therefore be connected to an efficient earthing system.

• The appliance must be connected to the electricity supply as follows:

BROWN = L line

BLUE = N neutral

YELLOW/GREEN = barth.

The neutral wire must be connected to the terminal with the N symbol while the YELLOW/GREEN, wire must be connected to the terminal by the earth symbol

When connecting the appliance to the electricity supply, make sure that the mains socket has an earth connection. After fitting the ducted cooker hood, make sure that the electrical plug is in a position where it can be accessed easily. If the appliance is connected directly to the electricity supply, an omnipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of 3mm must be placed in between the two; its size must be suitable for the load required and it must comply with current legislation.

• 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 placed 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.15) so that the unit is easier to handle.
  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.

In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.

Attention!

• Before installing the appliance, fix the electrical box D.
• Lift the electrical box and follow phases 1-2-3 indicated in figure 2.
• Position the bracket in correspondence with the 3 screws G already set up on the container and screw them is indicated in phase 4 - figure 2.
• Fix the air exhaust pipe H (not included) on the air outlet

flange F as indicated in figure 2.

- Mounting hood:

• Remove the structure D from the packaging and fix it to the motor container with the 4 screws E fig.3.
• Separate the support bracket K from the structure D fig.4.0.
• Remove the 2 screws A fastening the upper structure B to the lower structure C as indicated in fig.4.
• Adjust the desired height paying attention to the quota indicated in figure 5 and block it with the 8 screws G provided.
• Couple the lower chimney A to the upper one B and insert it on the structure as indicated in figure 6.

• Position the perforation template on the ceiling making sure the arrow is positioned on the same side as the appliance control (Fig.7).

• Make drillholes for suitable screw mounting as per the manufac-turer's instructions. See package leaflet figure 7 - step 1.

• Fit metal support K on the 4 screws S6 and securewith the nuts figure 8 - step 2-3.

• Take the hood and attach it to the hook L on the back of the support bracket K, make it tilt forwards as shown in figure 9 - step 5.
• Attach the structure B to the support bracket K as shown in figure 9 - step 6.
• Suction version: Fix the flexible tube to the pre-arranged air exhaust hole (Fig.10).

- Filtering version:

-Connect the flexible tube H to the deflector M and secure the screw I as indicated in (Fig.11).
The filters must be applied to the suction unit inside the hood, centring them and turning them 90 degrees until they click stop (Fig.16).
- Perform the electrical connection (fig.12).
Fix the upper chimney B to the structure with the 4 screws F (fig.13).
- If the cooker hood is supplied with a lower chimney piece that must be fixed to the hood body with screws, remove the anti-grease filters from the hood by acting on the relevant handles (Fig.15).
- If necessary, fix the lower duct to the hood from the inside, using the screws P (Fig.13). Re-locate the filters in their seat.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

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 s 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^ (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^ . 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.

- Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regenerable active charcoal filters it is important that they are completely dry.

• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally, 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.
• 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.

- Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.17):

To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass panel C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.

Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.

Caution: Do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.

Below are the definitions of the symbols:

Light key (A) = to switch the lights on and off. When the lights are on, the key's LED also lights up.

OFF key (B) = to switch the extractor hood off

Fan speed 1 key () = to switch the fan on at the lowest speed. When the fan is operated at speed 1, the LED for this key lights up.

Fan speed 2 key (D) = to switch the fan to medium speed. When the fan is operated at speed 2, the LED for this key lights up.

1. Fan speed 3 key (E) = to switch the fan to high and intensive speed. When the fan is operated at speed 3, the LED for key E lights up.

To use intensive speed, fan speed 3 must be active. To do this, press and hold key E for 2 seconds. The intensive stage stays active for 10 minutes, then the fan goes back to the previously set speed. When the intensive speed is active, the LED of key E flashes. To interrupt this speed before 10 minutes have elapsed, press key E again.
