DESCRIPTION
The hood may be in the filtering or the ducting version.
Filtering version (Fig. 1): The hood aspirates the kitchen air saturated with fumes and odours, purifies it through
the grease filters and charcoal filters and returns clean air into the room. For constant efficiency, the charcoal filters must
be replaced periodically. The charcoal filters are not supplied.
Ducting version (Fig. 2): The hood aspirates the kitchen air saturated with fumes and odours, passes it through
the grease filters and expels it to the outside through an outlet pipe. With this version the charcoal filters are not required.
Decide from the outset on the type of installation (filtering or ducting). For greater efficiency, we recommend you install
the hood in the ducting version (if possible).
INSTALLATION
ATTENTION: Two persons are required for proper installation; the unit should be installed by a qualified
operator. Remove the grease filters before proceeding with the assembly instructions. This will make the appliance easier
to handle.
1.
Removal of grease filters: Pull the lock and move up the metallic grille.(Fig.3a) take away the grease filter
pushing down and rotating outside (Fig. 3b).
INSTALLATION IN DUCTING VERSION: Before fixing, the outlet pipe for air evacuation to the outside must be
installed. Use an outlet pipe with: – minimum indispensable length; – minimum possible bends (maximum angle of bend:
90°); – certified material (according to the State); – an as smooth as possible inside. It is also advisable to avoid any
drastic changes in pipe cross-section (recommended diameter: 150 mm). For air evacuation to the outside, follow all the
other instructions given on the "Warnings" sheet. Prepare the power supply within the telescopic chimney (for the electrical
connection, follow all the other instructions on the "Warnings" sheet).
2.
Mount the plate of the electrical system (depending on the model) fixing it with 2 screws and 2 metal washers
(Fig. 3C).
3.
Fixing to the wall: Draw a line on the wall in vertical line with your hob. Mark the first 2 holes to be drilled in the
wall, respecting the distances indicated in Fig. 4. Drill the 2 holes and fit the screw anchors provided. Bear in mind that
the distance between the lower edge of the hood and the hob must be 350 mm. Fix the metal bracket (A) to the wall using
the 2 holes just drilled (Fig. 5); the screws for fixing the bracket are provided. Use the 2 cut-out triangles on the bracket
to position it exactly along the vertical axis of the hood. Hang the hood on the bracket (Fig. 6). Adjust the horizontal position
moving the hood to the right or left so that it is aligned with the wall units. If you also need to adjust the hood in height,
operate on the adjusting screws (B) provided. When adjustment has been completed, without removing the hood, mark
the other 6 holes to be drilled (C) in the wall. Remove the hood and drill the holes marked (8 mm diameter). Then use the
6 screw anchors and the 6 screws provided for final fixing.
4.
Install the flange in the device air outlet and press slightly (Fig.7)
5.
Fixing the telescopic flues:
5a - Assemble the tube support using a 4 screws kit (Fig.8); then, by means of the screw anchors and screws (F) provided,
fix the bracket to the ceiling in such a way that it is positioned along the axis with your hood (Fig.9).
5b - Connect the air outlet pipe to the air vent of the hood. - Use a flexible pipe and lock it to the air vent of the hood
with a metal hose clamp - Fig.10 (pipe and clamp are not provided). - For exhaust hoods, turn the upper flue over
so that the air exhaust grid is in the lower section (Fig.11).
5c - Plug in the hood. Insert the extension flues setting them on the hood; extend the upper flue to the ceiling and secure
with the 2 screws (H) - Fig.12.
INSTALLATION IN FILTERING VERSION: Prepare the power supply within the telescopic flues (for the electrical
connection, follow all the other instructions on the "Warnings" sheet).
Fixing to the wall: for fixing to the wall refer to the instructions for the ducting version (see points 2, 3, 4), then continue
with the instructions below.
Fixing the telescopic flues: - Assemble the tube support using a 4 screws kit (Fig.8); - Then, by means of the
screw anchors and screws (F) provided, fix the bracket to the ceiling in such a way that it is positioned along the axis
with your hood (Fig.9). - Mount the flange on the hood in correspondence to the air outlet point (Fig.13). – Take the
air baffle and fit a flexible pipe to it (125 mm diameter) locking it with a metal hose clamp (pipe and clamps are not
provided). Fit the air baffle to the upper flue (Fig.14) with 4 screws.
- Connect the flexible pipe to the flange on the air vent (Fig.15). - Plug in the hood. Insert the extension flues setting
them on the hood; extend the upper flue to the ceiling and secure with the 2 screws H (Fig.12). - Install the charcoal
filter fitting the two filter clips in their housings (Fig.16) and turning the filter upward.
