Filtering mode
The air that is sucked in will be 'degreased' befo-
re being re-conveyed into the room. If you wish
to use the hood in this mode, you will need to
buy an additional filtering system with activated
charcoal filers.
Note: The air recycled through the charcoal filters
is conveyed back into the kitchen through a duct
that conveys the air along a side of the cabinet.
Installation
Note: installation shall be performed in such
a way as to allow that the hood and its electric
components can be easily accessible in case of
technical assistance.
WARNING Place the metal box containing the
electronic components at a minimum distance of
65 cm from the gas hob or anyway at 65 cm from
the hood aspiration area.
RECOMMENDATION: we advise that you install
the metal box, containing the electronic compo-
nents, at 10 cm from the floor, at least, and at
a safe distance from any heat source (e.g.: an
oven side, or a hob ).
In the case that the installation instructions of
your gas cooker mention a higher distance, plea-
se comply with this requiremen..
Electrical Connection
The connection of the hood to the power supply
shall be performed by qualified and specialised
technical personnel.
The mains voltage shall correspond to the vol-
tage value specified on the rating label found
inside the hood. If the appliance is equipped with
a plug, the hood shall be connected to a socket
which is compliant with the relevant standards in
force, and which is located in an easily reachable
area, also after installation. If the appliance is not
equipped with a plug (direct connection to power
supply), or if the plug is not found in an easily re-
achable place after installation, use an approved
double-pole main switch, ensuring complete
disconnection from the power supply at the over-
voltage category III conditions, in accordance
with the installation procedure.
Caution! Before reconnecting the hood elec-
tric circuit to the power supply, and to check for
proper operation, please always make sure the
mains lead has been installed properly.
Installation
Before carrying out the appliance installation,
please check that all components are not dama-
ged, in such a case contact your retailer and do
not proceed with any further installation step. In
addition, carefully read all the instructions spe-
cified below.
Use an air exhaust pipe whose maximum length
does not exceed 5 meters.
• Limit the number of elbows in the piping, since
each elbow reduces the air capacity of 1 linear
meter. (Ex. : if you use no. 2 x 90 ° elbows, the
length of piping should not exceed 3 meters)
• Avoid abrupt direction changes.
• Use a 150 mm constant diameter pipe for the
whole length.
• Use piping approved by relevant standards in
force.
• The manufacturer shall not be deemed re-
sponsible for air capacity or noise problems
caused by failure to comply with the above in-
structions and no warranty on the product shall
be provided.
Before making the hole, check that there are
no structural, or other parts inside the cabinet,
where the appliance is to be placed, which
could hinder proper installation. Check that the
dimensions of the hood and the ones of the hob
are compatible with the cabinet, so that the in-
stallation can be carried out properly.
• Make a rectangular hole in the rear side of the
cook top, of the following sizes: (Fig. 1)
822mm X 100mm.
