• Slide the extension (H) until it is positioned at the desired height (Fig.
• Following what is indicated in Fig.
• Place the bracket (L) on the wall by following the line drawn on it. With a spirit level, check the horizontal alignment and mark the 2 drilling points

• Drill the holes, insert 2 expansion plugs (ø 6mm) and fasten the bracket (L) with the relative screws (V4) (Fig.
• Tighten the extension (H) to the bracket (L) using screws (V5) (Fig.
• Electrically power the hood in accordance with regulations in force.
OPERATION
WHEN SHOULD THE HOOD BE SWITCHED ON AND OFF?
Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook: this enhances the airflow to convey fumes and vapours towards the suction surface.
After cooking, leave the hood operating until complete extraction of all vapours and odours. If required, by means of the Timer function, it is possible
to set hood auto switch-off after 15 minutes of operation.
WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?
The first speed is a low consumption energy-saving way of keeping the air clean, the second speed is used in normal conditions, and the third
speed is used when there are strong odours and vapours.
WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?
The hood is assembled with two different types of filters: metal ones (washable) and active carbon ones (non-washable). The former must be
cleaned every 30 hours of use (the fixed light
on the use of the hood. For further information, please read the chapter regarding "Maintenance" on page 20.
WHEN AND WHY TO USE THE RECIRCULATION FUNCTION
The recirculation function can be used to improve the quality of the air in the home.
When the function is switched on, the hood recirculates the air in the room through an operating cycle at the 1st speed for 1 hour, followed by 3
hours, during which time the motor is down. This cycle is repeated for 24 hours, until timeout.
This function is useful with hoods installed with the external exhaust (suction) version.
TOUCH BUTTON PANEL OPERATION
Touch keyboard operation
The hood's touch keyboard is used by pressing the screen printed keys with dry, clean fingers: use fingers only and not other objects such as
ladles, cutlery, etc.
The use of a touch keyboard makes it much easier to clean the glass panel and also guarantees maximum, long-lasting reliability, avoiding any
type of mechanical problem.
Key pressure management :
Long press: finger pressed on key for at least 3 seconds, the function comes on while it is pressed.
Short press: finger pressed on key for less than 3 seconds, the function comes on when the key is released.
Timer/Filters alarm
Pressing the key with the motor active at any speed switches the Timer function on and off: this function determines the auto switch-
off of the hood after 15 minutes of operation. When the function is on the relative LED will start flashing, red or blue depending on
the model.
With the Timer function active, the hood can still be switched off by the user at any time by pressing the "speed 1" key: the function will
be automatically disabled and the relative light will turn off. With some models this also happens when the speed is changed while the
Timer function is running.
On the other hand, lights up steady indicating the grease filter alarm: this alarm reports that it is time to wash the metal anti-grease
filters (the alarm is triggered after approximately 30 hours of use). After cleaning the filters, disable the alarm and reset the counters by
keeping the key pressed for 3 seconds.
To disassemble and assemble the anti-grease metal filters, refer to the instructions
