correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact:
Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start
cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is
finished. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of
smoke and vapor and use boost speed(s) only in extreme
situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to
maintain a good odor reduction efficiency. Clean the grease
filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter
efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system
indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize
noise.
Use
The hood is designed to be used for exhausting version.
Vapours are evacuated toward the outside by way of an
exhaust pipe fixed to the connector flange and connected to a
peripheral extraction unit (not supplied).
Connection instructions are supplied with the peripheral
extraction unit.
Caution! The evacuation pipe is not supplied and must be
purchased.
In the horizontal section, the pipe must be tilted slightly
upwards (approx. 10°) in order to more easily convey the air
toward the outside.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a
diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance
and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
!
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum
elbow angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Installation
Check of the ceiling
The ceiling must be flat, horizontal, sturdy enough, and
resistant
Warnings
The hood is designed to be installed in a dropped ceiling
The dropped ceiling must be sturdy and have a load-bearing
capacity suitable for a product with max. weight of 20 Kg
(model with steel panel) or 24 Kg (model with glass
panel).
Do not install the hood directly in the dropped ceiling panels,
but use a suitable frame or support.
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the
range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers
and 70cm 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 mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with
a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current
regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after
installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection)
or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after
installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with
standards which assures the complete disconnection of the
mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in
accordance with installation instructions.
WARNING!
Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and
checking the efficient function, always check that the mains
cable is correctly assembled.
