How to use the hood
Control Panel
The best results are obtained using low speed with
normal cooking and a higher speed in the case of
a particular concentration of fumes.
We advise switching the hood on a few minutes
before starting to cook so as to obtain a vacuum
in the kitchen and to leave it working at the end of
cooking for another 15 minutes until all fumes and
odours have disappeared. The commands are on
the front panel of the hood.

indicator (LED)
E Intensive speed indicator
F Intensive speed key (LED). Intensive speed
lasts 5 minutes. If the hood is working when
intensive speed is started, it will return to the
previously set speed once the time has passed
(5 minutes). If the hood is off when intensive
speed is started, it switches off automatically at
the time limit (5 minutes). It is, for example,
opportune to use intensive speed to evacuate
odours after finishing cooking.
H Illumination OFF key.
I Illumination ON key.
If the hood or the commands are not working,
disconnect the electricity supply for at least 5
minutes and start the apparatus again.
Control device of the saturation
of the anti-fat and active carbon
filters.
The aspiration hood is equipped with
a device that signals when the anti-fat
or active carbon filter (recirculation
with carbon filter version) needs
cleaning.
The hood is delivered from the factory without the
carbon filter and therefore the LED that signals
filter saturation is inactive.
Activate the LED as indicated below if the hood
has to be used with the carbon filter:
Press keys B and G simultaneously for three
seconds. The D anti-fat filter LED lights up and
then the E carbon filter LED as well. The LED
that signals the saturation of the active carbon filter
has been activated.
Deactivation. Press keys B and G simultaneously
for three seconds until the E carbon filter LED
switches off.
Grease filter LED (D)
The D LED begins to flash when the anti-fat filter
needs to be washed.
The anti-fat filter must be changed after about 40
hours of use. Follow the instructions for changing
the anti-fat filter.
The active carbon filter LED (E)
The E LED begins to flash when the active carbon
filter must be changed.
The anti-fat filter must be changed after about 160
hours of use. Follow the instructions for changing
the active carbon filter.
Restoring the saturation
indicator
After having carried out maintenance on the filter,
keep key A held for 3 seconds until the LED of
the anti-fat filter D or the LED of the carbon filter
E stops flashing
Attention! Restoring the saturation indicators
MUST be carried out with the hood set in Stand-
by and therefore without disconnecting the hood
from the power supply.
Correct ventilation
A vacuum must be created in the kitchen for the
correct functioning of the hood.
It is important to keep the kitchen windows
closed and have a window open in an adjacent
room.
Important
If the hood is used together, for example, with an
open fireplace that takes air from inside the house,
a draught might occur that could bring fumes into
the room. Open a window.
This does not concern the active carbon filter
version.
