1. SAFETY INFORMA-
TION
For your own safety and to
ensure proper operation of
the appliance, please read
this manual carefully be-
fore installation and oper-
ation. Keep these instruc-
tions together with the ap-
pliance, even if it is sold or
transferred to third parties.
It is important that users
know all the appliance's
operating and safety char-
acteristics.
The cables must be con-
nected by a trained techni-
cian.
• The manufacturer shall not be
considered responsible for
any injury or damage caused
by improper installation or
use.
• The minimum safety distance
between the hob and the suc-
tion hood is 650 mm (some
models may be fitted at a
lower height; please see the
paragraph relating to working
dimensions and installation).
• If the instructions for installa-
tion of the gas hob specify a
distance greater than the one
indicated, this must be taken
into account.
• Check that the mains power
supply corresponds to the
one indicated on the data
plate affixed inside the hood.
• The cut-out devices must be
installed in the fixed system
according to wiring system
regulations.
• For Class I appliances, check
that the domestic power sup-
ply is adequately earthed.
• Connect the hood to the flue
using a pipe with a minimum
diameter of 120 mm. The
fumes must travel the
shortest distance possible.
• All the air venting regulations
must be complied with.
• Do not connect the ducting
hood to flues that also carry
combustion fumes (e.g. boil-
ers, chimneys, etc.).
• If the hood is used in combina-
tion with non electric appli-
ances (e.g. gas appliances),
a sufficient level of ventilation
must be guaranteed in the
room to prevent any exhaust
backflow. If the kitchen hood
is used in combination with
appliances that are not elec-
trically powered, the negative
pressure in the room must not
exceed 0.04 mbar to avoid
any risk of the fumes being
sucked back into the room by
the hood.
• The air must not be extracted
through a flue that is also used
as an exhaust flue for fumes
from gas or other fuel
powered combustion
devices.
• If it is damaged, the power
cable must be replaced by the
manufacturer or by a service
technician.
• Connect the plug to a socket
that complies with current
regulations and is in an ac-
cessible position.
