4
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 dimensions 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 combustion 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.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced from the manufacturer or its
service agent.
USE
• The extractor hood has been designed
exclusively for domestic use to eliminate
kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other
than for which it has been designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the
hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto
the bottom of the pan only, making sure
that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously
monitored during use: overheated oil can
burst into flames.
• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk
of fire.
• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance
by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• “ CAUTION: Accessible parts may become
hot when used with cooking ap-pliances”.
