(Section reserved for qualified installers)
WARNING! Before doing any work inside the range hood, disconnect the ap-
pliance from the mains power supply.
Check that the wires inside the range hood are not disconnected or cut; if this
is the case, contact your nearest service centre. The electrical connections
must be performed by qualified personnel.
The connections must be performed in compliance with the legal standards in
force. Check that the receptacle and wiring are able to support the load of the
appliance (see the technical specifications in point B).
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED.
Important:
The hood comes equipped with a 5 ft(1.5 m) power cord with a NEMA 5-15
molded plug for connection to a 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 15 A power outlet. This outlet
must be located in the duct cover area above the hood.
Some types of appliance are supplied with a cable without plug; in this case,
“standardised” or a junction box must be used, keeping in mind that:
- the yellow-green wire must be used for the earth,
- the blue/white wire must be used for the neutral,
- the brown/black wire must be used for the phase; the cable must not come
into contact with hot parts (over 70°C).
- fit a plug that is suitable for the load to the power cable, and connect it to a
suitable power outlet.
If local codes permit, the power cord may be removed and the hood may be
connected to a hard wired electrical connection. If there is any question con-
cerning the electrical connection of this appliance to your power supply, please
consult a licensed electrician.
For appliances that come supplied with cable and plug please ensure they are
plugged into a circuit suitable for this appliance.
Please refer to a qualifed person. (See technical specifications in point B).
The manufacturer declines all liability if the safety standards are not observed.

RANGE HOOD WITH OUTSIDE
DISCHARGE
(exhaust)
In this application, the fumes and steam from the kitchen are vented outside
through an exhaust duct. The exhaust conveyor that protrudes from the up-
per part of the range hood must be connected to a duct that carries the fumes
and steam outside. In this application, the charcoal filters, if fitted, should be
removed; to do this, see the instructions in point F. There must be adequate
ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appli-
ances burning gas or other fuels, according to the standard.

RECIRCULATING RANGE
HOOD
(with filter)
In this application, the air passes through charcoal filters for purification, and is
then recirculated back into the kitchen. Check that the charcoal filters are fitted
