Risk of asphyxiation

• The regulations applying to the evacuation of air must be obeyed. The air must not be sent into a duct used to evacuate fumes from appliances that use gas or other fuels (this does not apply to appliances that only emit air into the room).

• The room must be suitably ventilated when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances that use gas or other fuels (this does not apply to appliances that only emit air into the room).

• Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of a range hood or other cooking fume extractor, the operation of flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur Risk of fire

• It is forbidden to flame food or to turn on gas rings that are not covered by a cooking recipient beneath the hood, as the flames may by sucked in and damage the appliance.

• Keep a constant eye on fryers used beneath the hood. When heated to very high temperatures, oil and fat can catch fire.

Cooking fumes and steam are aspirated inside the hood, filtered and cleaned, passing through the fat filters and the carbon filters that MUST be supplied with the hood.

• The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must not be less than 50cm (not less than 60 cm only for Australia and New Zealand) from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to. Electrical connection The main tension must correspond to the tension shown on the characteristic label situated inside the hood. Warning! Changing the interconnection cable must be carried out by the authorised technical assistance service. Mounting Before beginning installation:
