Use

The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

Ducting version

The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).

Attention! If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Filter version

If it is not possible to discharge cooking fumes and steam outside, the hood can be used in filter mode by mounting the F deflector on the flue and one or more carbon filters (depending on the model). The fumes and steam are then recycled into the kitchen through the upper grill H.

Attention! If the hood is not supplied with a carbon filter,

it must be ordered and installed.

Models without a suction motor operate only in ducting mode and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).

The connection instructions are provided with the peripheral suction unit.

Installation

Fig. 3

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be at least 50 cm for electric cookers and 65 cm for gas or mixed cookers.

If the installation instructions for the gas hob specify a greater distance, that distance must be adhered to.

Electrical connection

The mains power supply must match the rating indicated on the plate located inside the hood. If a plug is provided, connect the hood to a socket that complies with current regulations and is accessible after installation. If the hood is not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not accessible after installation, install a double-pole switch that complies with standards and ensures complete disconnection from the mains under overcurrent category III conditions, in accordance with the installation instructions.

WARNING!

Before reconnecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking proper operation, always verify that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Mounting

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify the suitability of the materials for the specific wall/ceiling type. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to support the weight of the hood.

Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Operation

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Clean using ONLY a cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

Grease filter

Fig. 1 Traps cooking grease particles.

The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolor slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.

To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.

Charcoal filter (filter version only)

Fig. 2 It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking.

The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.

In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months.

The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.

Remove the grease filters.

Fit the charcoal filters over the motor.

Align the pins R on the cowl with the slots S, then turn the filter clockwise until it locks in place.

Reverse the above procedure to remove the charcoal filters.

Refit the grease filters.

Replacing lamps

Fig. 1 Disconnect the appliance from the electricity.

Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled down.

Remove cover A to access the lamp housing A.

Replace the damaged lamp.

Use E14 3W max LED lamps only. For more details, check enclosed leaflet "ILCOS D" (alfanumeric position "1d").

If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted properly into their housings before you call for technical assistance.

On some models ONLY:

A Non Return Backdraft Damper is included in the supply, as optional accessory to be installed under certain installation conditions (i.e. if there is no protection against accidental backdraft of air from the outside). The damper must be installed inside the dedicated housing, inside of the Air Outlet Fitting, before installing the flue.

Replace the defective bulb.
