1. RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
• The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance.
Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that
do not apply to your specific appliance.
• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting
from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the
extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a
lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on working dimen-
sions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the
rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply
guarantees adequate earthing. Connect the extractor to the exhaust
flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of
the flue must be as short as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying com-
bustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances
(e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must
be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of
exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating
directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean
air. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances
supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure
in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being
drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
•
The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting
fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels (not applicable
to appliances that only discharge the air back into the room).
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manu-
facturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
• If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance specified above, this has to be taken into account. Regu
-
lations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
