SAFETY NOTICES
The distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lower part of the hood must
be at least 65 cm. If the instructions for installation for the hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account.
The air collected must not be conveyed into a duct used to blow off smokes from appliances fed with an energy other
than electricity (central heating systems, thermosiphons, water-heaters, etc.).
Comply with the official instructions provided by the competent authorities in merit when installing the disposal duct.
In addition, exhaust air should not be discharged into a wall cavity, unless the cavity is designed for that purpose.
The room must be well aerated in case a hood and some other heat equipment fed with an energy other than electricity
(gas, oil, coal heaters, etc) operate at the same time.
In fact the intake hood, disposing of air, could create a vacuum in the room. The vacuum should not exceed 0,04mbar.
This prevents the gas exhausted by the heat source from being intaken again. It is therefore advisable to ensure the room
contains air taps able to ensure a steady flow of fresh air.

technical particulars that it belongs to class II insulation, therefore it must not be earthed.

N.B.: In kitchens heated with a device connected to a chimney (e.g. a stove), the recyclable version
of the hood should be installed. Do not use the hob without the cassette filters. Any room where a cooker
hood is used at the same time as appliances using gas or any other fuel must be properly ventilated.
