WARNING
This booklet is an integral part of the hood and must
consequently be stored and ALWAYS accompany it, even if the
hood is sold on to another owner or user, or if it is transferred
to another installation.
Ensure the voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) on the data plate
inside the appliance match the ones available in the place
where it is installed.
Any modification that might be required in the electrical system
in order to install the hood, must be carried out only by
competent people. Repairs performed by untrained people can
cause damage. For any intervention, please contact a Technical
Service Centre authorized to carry out the replacements with
spare parts.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor) are
switched off when the unit is not used. During storms, position
the main switch on "OFF".
The use of the hood cannot be different from the use of cooking
fume extractors in domestic cookers. The Manufacturer
accepts no liability for any damages caused to people, animals
or property, due to incorrect installation and maintenance or
misuse.
We remind you that the use of products using electricity implies
compliance with some vital safety rules:
•
This appliance is not to be used by persons (children
included) with reduced physical or mental capabilities or
lacking experience and knowledge, unless supervised or
instructed on its use by a person responsible for their
safety. Children must be supervised to make sure they do
not play with the appliance.
•
Do not clean the appliance before disconnecting it from
the power supply by turning the main switch to "OFF". If
cleaning is not carried out in compliance with the
instructions provided, a fire might develop.
•
Do not pull, disconnect or twist the cables from the
appliance, even if it is disconnected from the power
supply.
•
Do not spray or splash water on the appliance.
•
Do not insert sharp objects through the air intake and
delivery grilles.
•
Do not remove the filters to access the internal walls of the
appliance if you have not turned the main switch to "OFF".
•
Do not flambé underneath the hood. When frying, keep
the oil under constant control, since it can ignite.
•
ATTENTION: when the hob is working, the accessible parts
of the hood become hot.
This product can be installed at reduced distances from the
hob compared to a normal kitchen hood. In this condition,
the heating of all the surfaces of the hood, even those
inside the cabinet, is completely normal and is not a sign
of malfunction. Heating is accentuated if the hood is
installed above a gas hob. It is therefore recommended not
to store flammable material above the hood body inside
the wall cabinet.
USE
This hood can be used in extracting or filtering mode.
Extracting (expulsion to the outside). Kitchen fumes are
expelled through the piping (not supplied with the hood)
connected to the motor discharge.
The piping must never be connected to combustion discharge
pipes (stoves, boilers, burners, etc.).
The use of long pipes, with many bends, corrugated and with a
diameter smaller than the motor outlet's will cause a decrease
in extracting performance and an increase in noise.
Filtering (recycling). The fumes pass through the long life
washable activated carbon anti‐odour filter (not supplied with
the hood and available as an accessory) to be purified and
recycled in the kitchen. The use of the active carbon anti‐
odour filter reduces the hood performance, we therefore
recommend the hood is installed in Extracting mode.
INSTALLATION
Read the whole instruction booklet before installing and/or
using the hood.
With the hood correctly installed, the minimum distance
between the wall‐mounted unit and the cooking surface of a
gas stove must be at least 62 cm.
With the hood correctly installed, the minimum distance
between the wall‐mounted unit and the cooking surface of an
induction cooker must be at least 50 cm.
Please comply with all the regulations regarding air discharge.
The air must never be discharged into a duct used to discharge
the fumes produced by gas combustion appliances (not
applicable to hoods used in filtering mode).
The room must have sufficient ventilation when the hood is
used together with other appliances that use gas or other fuel.
During installation, we recommend you move the units
underneath it for better accessibility.
The hood is supplied with all the fixings required to install it,
suitable for most wall units. Check anyway that the surface of
the wall units is adequate.
Installation must be carried out by competent and qualified
installers in compliance with the regulations in force.
•
The hood is provided with a plastic back spacer to adapt its
depth to that of the wall unit (from 30 to 35 cm). Proceed
measuring the depth of the wall unit side "X" (Fig. 1), deduct
from this value the depth of the hood that is 30cm. The
difference is depth "A" (Fig. 1), the distance the spacer will have
to be cut at with a cutter. If the wall unit depth is 30 cm, no
spacer is required.
•
At this point, fix the already cut spacer to the hood (Fig. 2).
•
Fix the two brackets supplied to the unit internal walls,
complying with the distances shown (Fig. 3).
•
Insert the hood from the front; use the previously fixed
brackets as guides that must be inside the seat located on the
hood sides (Fig. 4).
•
After positioning the hood correctly, fix it to the guides with
the 4 screws supplied (Fig. 5).
