• The supplier will not provide any warranty for the consequences and damages caused by an improper installation or a misuse of the equipment.
• Do not attempt to modify the characteristics of this equipment, that would represent a hazard. Repairs shall be exclusively made by a specialized and authorized technician. To avoid risks, the manipulation of the equipment is strictly forbidden so is the replacement of the power cable.
• If the fume hood is not supplied with a power cable and a pin or any other means for the disconnection of the mains power supply, with a separation of the contact between all poles that provides the total disconnection under conditions of overvoltage category III, shall be incorporated to disconnecting means to the fixed system, according to the installation rules (two-pole switch directly connected to power supply terminals which shall have a separation of the contact between poles so as to interrupt the supply of electricity in case of overvoltage category III).
• Once the equipment has been installed, the disconnection of the equipment from the power supply shall be allowed. Disconnection can be done by keeping the jack accessible or adding a switch to the electric system in accordance with the installation rules.
• If the power cord is damaged, it shall be replaced either by the producer, its customer service or qualified personnel in order to avoid risks.
• It is of vital importance to place particular attention as to where the wall or ceiling will be perforated so as to verify the presence of hidden electrical cables, pipes or iron beams, etc. This may cause serious breakdowns, electrical derivations or the transmission of noises and vibrations.
• IMPORTANT: During the installation phase, before electrically connecting the equipment, always disconnect the power panel that will supply it (differential or thermal-magnetic of the general house switchboard).
• WARNINGS: Always disconnect the exhaust hood from the electrical outlet before proceeding to cleaning and maintenance operations by plugging off the electrical outlet, differential or thermal-magnetic of the general home switchboard. To clean the exhaust hood, never use steam or high-pressure devices (rules regarding electric safety).
• It is forbidden to cook directly on the flame or operate the gas stoves with no container to cook on the same flame (aspirated flames may damage the equipment and the warranty will be cancelled accordingly). The use of the equipment on a fuel stove is not authorized (wood, coal,...).
• Frying under the equipment shall be constantly monitored since oils and fats being subjected to high temperatures may ignite. Do not flame under the exhaust hood.
• Precaution: burns of accessible parts are likely to occur as they can get hot when using cooking appliances.
• Follow the cleaning frequency and filter substitution. The accrual of fat deposits may provoke fires. Never use the exhaust hood without the anti-fat filter.
• The equipment shall abide by the existing rules on the ventilation of closed spaces. Technically, the air expelled shall not pass through the duct used for the discharge of smokes from appliances using gas or any other fuel (central heating systems, etc...).
• Ventilate the environment appropriately in case of a simultaneous operation of the exhaust hood and any other equipment supplied by an energy source other than electricity so that the exhaust hood will not draw gas compounds.
• Attention! During the simultaneous operation of a suction-filtration exhaust hood and a heating system independent of air (gas heaters, oil, coal, chimney, etc...), great attention has to be placed so as to avoid that the exhaust hood does not absorb part of the air intended for the combustion process since dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide may surge within the premises, that would represent a life-threatening danger. When installing an exhaust hood joined or connected to a fuel element such as a heater, chimney or local heating system, it is mandatory to contact the producer or installer of such elements to obtain an optimal and risk-free operation.
• It is necessary to maintain a depressurized environment of maximum 0.04 mbar. Such conditions allow an excellent working of the exhaust hood. In order to achieve such environment a permanent air intake is necessary in order to avoid air stagnation (it is advised to use a ventilation grid for this purpose). Windows or doors shall not be used.
• The electrical supply of the power network shall be stable and cope with the indicated electrical standards, 220/240V AC, 50Hz. Should it be not stable and receive voltage variations in the supply, intensity or frequency such as harmonics, transients, voltage dips, overloads, electrical storms, etc..., the hood may show malfunctions or even breakdowns, and the repair would not be covered by the warranty. In that case, the exhaust hood shall be disconnected and the company must contact an electrician or electrical company in order to solve the supply problem.
• The exhaust hood is a household appliance connected to an electromechanical device for the extraction of fumes, it cannot be used as a support element for objects or tools.
• In the constant effort to improve our products, we reserve the right to make changes following their enhancement to their technical, functional and aesthetic characteristics.

Tips for Energy Saving

• Always use the cover corresponding to each pot. When cooking without a lid, the energy consumption is somewhat greater.
• Use a glass lid to see inside without having to lift it. • Use containers with a flat bottom. If the base is not flat, the energy consumption is greater. • For small amounts, use small pans. A large bowl that is only half full just needs a lot of energy.
• For cooking, use a little water. Thus, it saves energy and preserves all the vitamins and minerals in vegetables.
