Instruction on mounting and use
Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text
by alphabet letters.
Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual. All
responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or
fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this
manual, is declined.
Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of
fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
Filter version
provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and
vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter
version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled
through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe
connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring
mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing
clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and
65cm from gas or mixed cookers.If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this
must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted on
the label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the electrical
plug, where provided, to the an easily accessible outlet in
conformity with local standards in force. Where an electrical
plug is not provided (for direct connection to electrical
network) or is not easily accessible, place a standards
approved bipolar switch that provide full disconnection under
overvoltage category III conditions, in accordance with the
wiring rules.
Attention: substituting the supply cable must be carried out
by the authorised technical assistance service.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must
verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of
wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take
the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this
appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
Preliminary information for installation of the hood:
Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by turning
the home mains switch off.
Remove the fat/s filter/s and the carbon filter frame.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only. Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over
shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily removed, in
case maintenance is ever required.
Assembling the chimney flue support/bracket (3 parts):
The three parts should be fixed with 4 screws, the support
extension is adjustable and should correspond to the internal
width of the telescopic chimney flue.
Assembling the deflector (only when a deflector
composed of 3 parts is supplied – the deflector should be
only for the filter version):
The three parts should be fixed with 2 screws, the deflector
extension is adjustable and should correspond to the width of
the chimney flue support, to which it is then fixed.

1Q/8Q
Remove AND CONSERVE the screws that temporarily fix
the flue units (for reasons of transport), the hood or the
flue unit (on the basis of the model possessed) with the
suction unit. The two parts should be disassembled to
facilitate installation. Check how the parts are fixed together
to repeat assemblage at the opportune moment.
Before fixing the hood to the suction unit check that the metal
band (steam shield) that holds the lamp and the filter/s /
greases is well attached to the front. If necessary adjust the
position of the band forwards until the end stop.
