GENERAL

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).

■ INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Power Supply Connection:

For connection to the power supply refer to the follows Fig.8:

BLACK = L line

WHITE = N neutral

GREEN/YELLOW = G ground

A double-pole switch properly rated must be installed to provide the range hood power supply disconnection. The appliance must be installed at a minimum height of 26 inches (66 cm) from an electric cooker stove, or 30 inches (76 cm) from gas or combined cooker stoves. If a connection ductwork composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part. Do not connect the range hood exhaust duct air to the same duct air used to exhaust hot air or fumes from other appliances other than electrical. Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.7) so that the unit is easier to handle.

■ WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: Before making electrical connections to power supply, the electrical box must be secured in place as indicated in Fig.1.

- Before installing the appliance fix the electrical box as indicated in Fig.1:

• Remove the central screw Fig.1A.
• Lift the electrical plant box Fig.1B.
• Remove the 3 fixed screws Fig.1C.
• Position the electrical box so it is in line with the holes of the previously removed screws Fig.1D and tighten.
• Pay attention that the tear tape of the electrical box is inside the slot and then tighten screw Fig.1E.

- Fixing to the wall:

Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.3). Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws A (Fig.5). For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.

• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:

Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.4). Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.4) in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.3. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.5). Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws B provided (Fig.5), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.4).

USE

- The apparatus is equipped with the following controls (Fig.6):

Push-button A = On/off cooker hood switch. The appliance switches on at speed level 1, If the cooker hood is on depress the push-button for 2 sec. to switch off the cooker hood. If the cooker hood is at speed level 1 it will not be necessary to depress the push-button to switch the cooker hood off. Decreases the motor speed.

Push-button B = On/off lights switch.

Display C = Indicates the motor speed level selected and activates the timer.

Push-button D = Switches on the cooker hood. Increases the motor speed. Touching the key at 3rd speed, the intensive function runs for 10', then the appliance go back to work at the original speed. During this function the display blinks.

Key E = The Timer times the functions on activation for 15 minutes, after which they are switched off. The Timer is deactivated by re-pressing Key E. When the Timer is activated the decimal point must flash on the display. The Timer cannot be activated if the intensive speed is functioning.

The “clean air” function is activated by pressing key E for 2 seconds when the appliance is switched off. This switches the motor on for 10 minutes every hour at the first speed. During functioning a rotary movement of the peripheral segments must be visualised on the display. When this time has passed the motor switches off and the fixed letter “C” must be visualised on the display until the motor re-starts after 50 minutes for another 10 minutes and so on. Press any key apart from the light keys to return to normal functioning. Press key E to deactivate the function.

• Active carbon/grease filter saturation:

• When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates with the letter F (e.g. 1 and F), the grease filters must be washed.
• When display item C flashes, at a speed where it alternates with the letter A (e.g. 1 and A), the carbon filters must be replaced.

After the clean filter has been positioned correctly, the electronic memory must be reset by pressing button A for approximately 5 seconds, until the indication F or A shown on the display C stops flashing.

MAINTENANCE

- We recommend that the range 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 range hood depends on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special attention.

- The anti-grease filter is used to trap any grease particles suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation (the time it takes for the filter to become saturated depends on the way in which the appliance is used).

- To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is possible to use the dishwasher for this task).

- After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change. This does not mean they have to be replaced.

If the replacement and washing instructions are not followed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.

- The active carbon filters are used to purify the air which is released back into the room. The filters are not washable or re-usable and must be replaced at least once every four months. The active carbon filter saturation level depends on the frequency with which the appliance is used, the type of cooking performed and the regularity with which the anti-grease filters are cleaned.

- Clean the range hood frequently, both inside and outside, using a cloth which has been dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral, non-abrasive liquid detergents.

- The light on the range hood is designed for use during cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb.

- Replacing light Leds "1.1 W" (Fig.9):

Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
