FUMES DISCHARGE
EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION)
In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside through
the exhaust pipe.
To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a pipe, to an
external output.
The outlet pipe must have:
• a diameter not less than that of the hood itting.
• a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent condensation from
flowing back into the motor.
• the minimum required number of bends.
• the minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the suction performance of
the hood.
You are required to insulate the pipes if it passes through cold environments.
In the presence of motors with 500CFM or higher, a check valve is present to prevent
external air flowing back.
HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING)
In this model, the air passes through the charcoal filters to be purified
and recycled in the environment.
Ensure that the active carbon filters are assembled into the hood, if not,
install them as indicated in the assembly instructions.
In this version the check valve must not be assembled: remove it if it is on the air
outlet fitting of the motor.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and performance over time.
Special attention is to be paid to the metal anti-grease ilters : frequent cleaning of the
filters and their supports ensures that no flammable grease is accumulated.
CLEANING OF EXTERNAL SURFACES
You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood at least once every 15 days to
prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them. To clean the brushed stainless
steel hood, the Manufacturer recommends using "Magic Steel" wipes.
Alternatively and for all the other types of surfaces, it can be cleaned using a damp cloth,
slightly moistened with mild, liquid detergent or denatured alcohol.
Complete cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths.
The glass panels can only be cleaned with specific, non-corrosive or non-abrasive deter-
gents using a soft cloth.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these instructions.
CLEANING OF INTERNAL SURFACES
METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
It is advised to frequently wash the metal filters (at least once a month) leaving them to
soak in boiling water and cleaning solution for 1 hour, taking care not to bend them.
Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling them.
Washing in a dishwasher is permitted.
To extract and insert the metal anti-grease filters see the assembly instructions.
LIGHTING
The range hood is equipped with high efficiency, low consumption LED spotlights with an
extremely long life-span under normal use conditions.
Should the LED spotlight need to be replaced, proceed as shown in the figure.
