GENERAL INFORMATION
Carefully read the following important in-
formation regarding installation safety and
maintenance. Keep this information booklet
accessible for further consultations.
INSTALLING INSTRUCTIONS
This hood is prepared to be installed above
a hob by fixing it to the wall. It can be instal-
led in two ways:
• EXHAUST MODE: the kitchen vapours are
purified by the metal anti-grease filters and
carried outside through a ducting system.
• RECIRCULATING MODE: the kitchen va-
pours are purified by the metal anti-grease
filters and an activated carbon filter, then
conveyed back into the kitchen.
We suggest to have installation carried out
by qualified personnel, in compliance with
all the current regulations and in particular
with the ones concerning air exhaust.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damages caused by improper installation
or if it has not been carried out according to
the state-of-the-art.
SAFETY
The minimum distance between the sup-
porting surface for the cooking equipment
on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 40cm from elec-
tric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed
cookers. It is possible to install the hood so
that the distance between the cooking top
and the fats filter is not less than less than
65 cm in the case of gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas
hob specify a greater distance, this must be
adhered to. (Fig.10).
• If a connection tube composed of two
parts is used, the upper part must be placed
outside the lower part.
• Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to
the same conductor used to circulate hot air
or for evacuating fumes from other applian-
ces generated by other than an electrical
EN
source.
• Take care when the cooker hood is opera-
ting simultaneously with an open fireplace
or burner that depend on the air in the
environment and are supplied by other than
electrical energy, as the cooker hood remo-
ves the air from the environment which a
burner or fireplace need for combustion.
The negative pressure in the environment
must not exceed 4 Pa (4x10 –5 bar).
• Provide adequate ventilation in the envi-
ronment for a safe operation of the cooker
hood. Follow the local laws applicable for
external air evacuation.
• Use screws and screw anchors suitable for
wall (e.g. reinforced cement, plasterboard)
for the mounting of the cooker hood. Where
screws and screw anchors are supplied
ensure that they are suitable for the type
of wall where the cooker hood is to be
mounted.

MOUNTING THE COOKER HOOD TO THE
WALL
• Drill holes A-B-C according to indications
quoted in (fig.3).
• Hang the cooker hood on the wall using
the drill holes A (Fig.5).
• Fasten the cooker hood using the faste-
ning drill holes B (Fig.6).
• Connect the flange Y of Ø150 mm (fig.2)
to the discharge opening with a connecting
tube.
If the apartment is equipped with an exter-
nal Ø120 mm air duct, apply the reduction
fitting provided. (do not carry out the above
instructions for recirculating mode).
• Thread the upper chimney E to the inside
of the lower chimney F; Insert them vertical-
ly on of the cooker hood body (Fig.7).
• Affix the bracket Z (Fig.8) to the wall via
the drill holes C.
