ES

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), filtering version (air circulation on the inside) or with external motor.

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 (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 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
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the overheated oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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

Electric Connection

The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary.

The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

BROWN = L line

BLUE = N neutral

If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load indicated on the description label. Where a plug is provided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that the plug is easily accessible.

An omnipolar switch with a minimum aperture of 3mm between contacts, in line with the electrical load and local standards, must be placed between the appliance and the network in the case of direct connection to the electrical network.

• 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.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.

- Installation

The following instruction should be followed to carry out the correct installation of the cooker hood.

1) Mounting of the cooker hood on the lower side of the cupboard.
2) Selection of the version (extraction or filtration)

Fixing the hood to the lower part of the wall cabinet

Position fastening template A to the bottom of the cabinet (Fig.1) taking into account the minimum distance from the hob.
- Fasten the 4 screws C, without screwing them in all the way.
- Position the hood under the cabinet and push it all the way against the wall, screw in/tighten the 4 screws C.
- Adjust spacer L from screws P (fig.2) so that the back of the appliance is against the cabinet.

- Extraction through an outside wall

The appliance expels the fumes through an outside wall or a duct. It is necessary to buy a telescopic pipe in accordance with the standards in use (inflammable) and connect it to flange B (Fig 3).

Recirculation

To transform the cooker hood from the extraction version to the re circulating one ask your supplier for an activated carbon filter.

The filter must be fitted to the extracting group cooker hood in the centre of the fan grille by twisting it by 90 degrees until it is gripped securely (Fig 6). For this operation remove the anti-grease filter(s) G (Fig 5). The clean air is returned into the room through a connecting tube passing inside the cupboard and connected to the ring B (fig 4).

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.

• Commands: (Fig.7) the key symbols are explained below: This hood is fitted with a microswitch which allows the activation of the motor speed) through the opening of the telescopic undercarriage. If the telescopic undercarriage is closed the motor speeds cannot be activated.

This microswitch does not have an impact on the activation of the lights which must be switched on through the appropriate switch (see fig.7A).

A = Light switch
A1 = Off key
A2 = On key
B = Speed control
B1 = FIRST SPEED key
B2 = SECOND SPEED key
B3 = THIRD SPEED ke

Warning! If the telescopic undercarriage is closed with the speed set at 2, once it is re-opened, the hood will be reactivated with the same speed in use when the hood was closed.

• Replacing the halogen/incandescent lamps (Fig.8):

Only use lamps of the same type and wattage installed on the device.

THE MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR EVENTUAL DAMAGES CAUSED BY BREACHING THE ABOVE WARNINGS.
