Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter version.

In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a
special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.
Attention! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased
apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection
ring.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted (about
10°) and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the room to the
outside.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be
removed.
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 indispensible length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle:
90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
!
Use a duct as smooth as possible inside.
!
The duct must be made of certified material.
Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and can be obtained from your
usual retailer.
The filter removes the grease and smells from the extracted air before
sending it back into the room through the upper outlet grid.

equipment 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.

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
