RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
Installation
- The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
- The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
- Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
- For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
- Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
- If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
Use
- The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate kitchen smells.
- Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.
- Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
- Adjust the flame intensity to direct it
onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.
- Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flames.
- Do not flambé under the range hood; risk of fire
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

USE
The hood can be switched on by pushing directly onto the requested speed without firstly having to select the 0/1 button.
| Touch control | Basic functions Indicator lights | |
| Dual Function |
| L | When briefly pressed it switches the lighting system on and off. | Touch control unlit | Lights off |
| When pressed for 2 seconds it starts the lighting system in "courtesy light" mode. The lamps are fed at a reduced power of approximately 5W. Such function can be stopped by pressing the touch control for 2 seconds or just by pressing it shortly in order to return to the normal lighting mode. In courtesy light mode the touch control is not lit. | Touch control lit | Lights on |
| Touch control unlit | Courtesy light on |
| T1 | When pressed the motor is stopped, regardless of the speed it is set to. | Touch control lit | Motor on |
| Touch control unlit | Motor off |
| T2 | When pressed the motor is set to the first speed | Touch control lit |
| T3 | By a brief pressing the motor is set to the second speed. | Touch control lit | Second speed on |
| By pressing the touch control for approximately 2 seconds the Delay function is enabled, i.e delayed shutdown of the appliance ensuring a complete elimination of the residual odours. This function can be activated at OFF-position and at 1°, 2° and 3°speeds. It can be stopped in advance by pressing any of the touch controls (T) with the exception of T3. The Delay function works according to the following scheme: 1°speed / OFF = 20 minuets 2°speed = 15 minutes 3°speed = 5 minutes | Flashing touch control | Delay function on |
| T4 | When pressed the motor is set to the third speed | Touch control lit |
| T5 | When pressed the motor is set to the intensive speed timed to 5 minutes. At the end of 5 minutes of intensive speed the hood starts again at the speed it was set to previously. In case the hood is set to the intensive speed directly from OFF-state it will then start from the first speed after 5 minutes of intensive speed. | Touch control lit |
| F | When pressed for 4 seconds it resets the filter alarm signal indicated by flashing of the touch control T1. This procedure can be carried out only when the motor is stopped. | Touch control lit | Metal grease filters saturation alarm. Metal grease filters need to be washed. The alarm starts up after 100 working hours. |
| Flashing touch control | Charcoal filter saturation alarm. Charcoal filter has to be replaced and metal grease filters washed. The alarm starts up after 200 working hours. (Activation; check the paragraph "Charcoal filter") |
MAINTENANCE
Alarm reset
- Stop the motor.
- Press the F touch control for at least 4 seconds until the T1 touch control flashes.
Cleaning the filters
- Filters can be washed in the dishwasher. They need to be washed every 2 months or even more frequently in case of particularly intensive use of the hood.
- Remove the filters one by one by pushing them laterally and simultaneously pulling downwards.
- Any kind of bending of the filters has to be avoided when washing them. Before fitting them again into the hood, make sure that they are completely dry. (The colour of the filter surface may change over time, but this has no influence on the filter efficiency.)
- When fitting the filters into the hood, pay attention that they are placed in the correct position and that the handle faces outwards.
Replacing the Charcoal Filter
This filter cannot be washed or regenerated, and must be replaced when the F touch control starts to flash, or at least once every 4 months. The alarm is only triggered when the motor is on.
Enabling/Disabling the alarm signal
- In Recirculation Version Hoods, the Filter saturation Alarm must be enabled at the time of installation or later.
