Recommendations
and suggestions
• The Instructions for Use apply
to several versions of this appli-
ance. 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 instal-
lation.
• 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 para-
graphs 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, fire -
places, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunc-
tion 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.
• In the event of damage to the
power cable, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer or by the
technical service department, in
order to prevent any risks.
• If the instructions for installation
for the gas hob specify a greater
distance specified above, this has
to be taken into account. Regula-
tions concerning the discharge of
air have to be fulfilled.
• Use only screws and small parts
in support of the hood.
Warning: Failure to install the
screws or fixing device in accord -
ance with these instructions may
result in electrical hazards.
• Connect the hood to the mains
through a two-pole switch having
a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
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 op-
eration.
