• FIxing to the wall:
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig.3). Fix the appliance to the wall and align
it in horizontal position to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted, tightly secure
the hood using the screws A (Fig.5). For the various installations use screws and screw anchors
suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw
anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on
which the hood is to be fixed.
• Regarding the installation on plasterboard wall:
Make sure that the screws are well fixed to the bearing elements of the wall. If that is not
possible, it is necessary to install a carrying support structure made by joists from 2 to 4 inches
with the points of anchorage of the screws.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance
is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust
opening. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.4). Then fix it near the ceiling
using the screws A (Fig.4) in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the
distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.3. Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using
a connection pipe (Fig.5). Insert the upper flue into the lower flue. Extract the upper flue up to
the bracket and fix it with the screws B (Fig.4).
• Filtering version (carbon filters on some models)
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for installation of the hood in
ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained in the kit.
The filters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centred
by turning them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.6).
