SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS

INSTALLATION WARNINGS
TECHNICAL SAFETY
Installation operations are to be carried out by skilled and qualified install-
ers in accordance with the instructions in this booklet and in compliance
with the regulations in force.
Before installing the hood, check the integrity and function of each part. Should
anomalies be noted, do not proceed with installation and contact the Dealer.
Do NOT install the hood if an aesthetic defect has been detected. Put it back into
its original package and contact the dealer. No claim can be made for aesthetic
defects once the hood has been installed.
During installation, always use personal protective equipment (e.g. accident-prevention
shoes) and adopt prudent and proper conduct.
The components of the fixing kit (supplied with the hood) required to fix the
safety chains are only to be used on masonry walls: should it be necessary to use
them on walls of different material, assess other fixing systems, keeping the wall's
strength and the weight of the hood in mind (indicated in the technical specifications
inserted in the first part of this booklet).
Keep in mind that installations with different types of fixing systems from those supplied,
or which are not compliant, can cause electrical and mechanical seal danger.
Do not modify the electrical, mechanical and functional structure of the equipment.
Do the install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to atmospheric agents (rain, wind,
etc.)
After the stainless steel hood has been installed, it will need to be cleaned to remove any
residues from the protection adhesive as well as any grease and oil stains which, if not
removed, can cause irreversible damage to the hood surface. To do so the manufacturer
recommends using the supplied moist wipes, which are also available sold separately.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The electrical system to which the hood is to be connected must be accord-
ing to standard and compulsorily supplied with earthed connection in
compliance with safety regulations in the country of use. It must also com-
ply with European standards regarding radio antistatic properties.
Before installing the hood, check that the electrical mains power supply corresponds
with what is reported on the identification plate located inside the hood.
The socket used to connect the installed equipment to the electrical power supply must
be within reach: if this is not possible, install a mains switch in an accessible position in
order to disconnect the hood when required.
Any changes to the electrical system required to install the hood must be carried out by
a qualified electrician.
It is dangerous to change, or try to change, the features of this equipment. Do not try
to solve the problem yourself in the event of equipment malfunction, but contact the
Dealer or an authorised Servicing Department for repairs.
When installing the hood, disconnect the equipment by removing the plug or
switching off the main switch.
FUMES DISCHARGE SAFETY
Do not connect the equipment to discharge pipes of fumes produced from com-
bustion (for example boilers, fireplaces, etc.)
Before installing the hood, ensure that all standards in force regarding discharge of air out
of the room have been complied with.
USER WARNINGS
GENERAL WARNINGS
These warnings have been drawn up for your personal safety and those of
others. You are therefore kindly asked to read the booklet carefully in its
entirety before installing and using the equipment or carrying out clean-
ing operations.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused directly, or
indirectly, to persons, things and pets as a consequence of failing to comply with
the safety warnings indicated in this booklet.
It is imperative that this instructions booklet is kept together with the equipment
for any future consultation. If the equipment is sold or transferred to another per-
son, make sure that the booklet is also supplied so that the new user can be made
aware of the hood's operation and relative warnings.
Installation operations are to be carried out by a skilled and qualified installer in
accordance with the instructions in this booklet and in compliance with the reg-
ulations in force.
DO NOT use the hood if the power supply cable or other components are dam-
aged. Disconnect the hood from the electrical power supply and contact the Dealer
or an authorised Servicing Department for repairs. Insist on original spare parts. Do not
personally try to carry out repairs or replacements. Interventions carried out by in-
competent and unauthorised persons can cause damage, even serious, to things
and/or persons not covered by the Manufacturer's warranty.
Do not modify the electrical, mechanical and functional structure of the equipment. Any
changes to the electrical system required to install the hood must be carried out by a
qualified electrician.
INTENDED USE
The equipment is solely intended to be used to extract fumes generated from
cooking food in non-professional domestic kitchens: any other use is improper, can
cause damage to persons, things and pets and exempts the Manufacturer from any li-
ability.
The equipment can be used by children above the age of 8 and by persons with reduced
physical, sensory and mental abilities, or with no experience or knowledge, as long as
they do so under supervision or after having received relative instructions regarding safe
use of the equipment and understanding of the dangers connected to it. Children are
not to play with the equipment. Cleaning and maintenance operations intended for the
user must not be carried out by children without supervision.
USE AND CLEANING WARNINGS
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the equip-
ment by removing the plug or switching off the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor fan) are off when the equipment
is not used.
Check the deep-fryers during use: Overheated oil can catch fire.
Do not light naked flames under the hood.
Do not flambé foods under the hood.
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease filters: in this case, grease and dirt will
deposit in the equipment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot if used together with cooking appliances.
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts of the hood are still hot.
There can be a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out according to the methods and
products indicated in this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is not used for long periods of time.
If other appliances that use gas or other fuels are being used at the same time
(boiler, stove, fireplaces, etc.), make sure the room where the fumes are extracted
is well-ventilated, in compliance with the current regulations.
WARNINGS IN CASE OF MALFUNCTION
DO NOT use the hood if the power supply cable or other components are dam-
aged. Disconnect the hood from the electrical power supply and contact the Dealer
or an authorised Servicing Department for repairs. Insist on original spare parts. Do not
personally try to carry out repairs or replacements. Interventions carried out by in-
competent and unauthorised persons can cause damage, even serious, to things
and/or persons not covered by the Manufacturer's warranty.

INSTALLATION
(only intended for personnel qualified to install the hood)
Before installing the hood, carefully read Chap. "Safety instructions and
warnings" on page 27.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
The technical specifications are reported on the identification plate located inside the hood.
POSITIONING
The recommended distance between the highest part of the cooker and the lowest part of
the hood is approximately 110 cm (43.3").
In certain cases, this distance can be increased up to a maximum of approximately 150 cm
(59"), with a slight decrease in the efficiency of the device.
The minimum installation distance must not be less than 65 cm (25.5"), as provided by the
standard, also according to an interpretation of standard EN60335-2-31 dated 11-07-2002 by
TC61 (sub-clause 7.12.1 meeting 15 agenda item 10.11).
Should the instructions for the gas cooker specify a greater distance, take this into consid-
eration.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to atmospheric agents (rain, wind,
etc.)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
(only intended for personnel qualified to install the hood)
Disconnect the equipment from electrical mains power supply before car-
rying out any operations on the hood.
Make sure that the wires inside the hood are not disconnected or cut.
Should this occur, contact your nearest Servicing Department. Refer to
qualified personnel for electrical connections.
Connection must be carried out in compliance with the provisions of law in force.
