HOW TO USE THE COOKER HOOD
This appliance is intended to suck cooking fumes,
greases and steam. It has been designed to work
in both suctioning mode, with outside evacuation,
and filtering mode.
Outside - discharge version
The cooker hood can be mounted in the version
with outside discharge of suctioned air: in this case
it is necessary to connect the exhausting channel
to the outside (exhausting pipes are not supplied
with the products.)
Non-return valve blockage
In case of outside air discharge installation, fit a
non-return valve to prevent wind and back air from
entering.
Before connecting the air exhaust hose, make
sure that the non-return valves can rotate fre-
ely.
WARNING
Filtering mode
In case fumes and vapour cannot be evacuated
outside, the appliance can be used in the filtering
mode.
Activated charcoal filters are required for this type
of cooker hood.
Air recycled through the charcoal filters is recircu-
lated into the kitchen, thanks to a duct conveying
the air on one side of the cabinet (Fig. 11) .
CAUTION
Installation must comply with the regulations
in force regarding the ventilation of enclosed
environments. In particular, discharged air
must not be conveyed into a duct used for
fumes discharge or discharge from applian-
ces using gas or other combustible materials.
The use of discontinued ducts is not allowed
without the approval of a qualified technician.
After having replaced the filters, reinstall the
front stainless pan’el, otherwise the Down-
draft is not enabled to function.
WARNING
GREASE FILTER REMOVAL,
MOUNTING THE ACTIVATED CHAR-
COAL FILTER
The removal and fitting of the grease and carbon
filters need to be carried out with the downdraft in
the open position. To open the downdraft, push
the key.
Then remove the front panel, pulling the upper part
of each side at the same time. The panel will rotate
forwards to make it possible to access the grease
filters (Fig. 6) . Remove the grease filters to ac-
cess the carbon filters (Fig. 12) .
Charcoal filters shall be replaced accordingly to
the effective use of the Downdraft, and in any
case at least once every 6 months.
