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 either for exhausting or filter
version.
Extraction 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.
CAUTION!
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.
CAUTION!
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 indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow
angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Filtration version
The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before being
fed back into the room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a
system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode,
and must be connected to an external suction device (not
supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral
suction unit.
Installation
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 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm
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.
The hood is provided with a special power cable ; if the cable is
damaged, request a new one from Technical Service.
Mounting
Before beginning installation:
•
Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for the
chosen installation area.
•
Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also relative
paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only if you want
lo use the hood in the filtering version.
