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 rangehood is 650mm (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.

Air extracted:

The air is discharged out of the house by a pipe. (Carbon filters can be used but it will impact the extraction power)

Pure technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with no text, numbers, or symbols

Recirculating:

The air is purified and discharged into the house. (Always use activated carbon filters when recirculating)

When installing the ducted version, connect the rangehood to the chimney using either a flexible or rigid pipe 150 or 120 mm, the choice of which is left to the installer.
