Attention ! The exhausting pipe is not supplied and
must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to
that of the connection ring.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be
slightly slanted (about 10°) and directed upwards
to vent the air easily from the room to the outside.
Attention! If the hood is supplied with active
charcoal filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the
walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet
(connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with
smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the
suction performance and a drastic increase in
noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore
declined.
! Use a duct of the minimum indispensible
length.
! Use a duct with as few elbows as possible
(maximum elbow angle: 90°).
! Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-
section.
! Use a duct with an as smooth as possible
inside.
! The duct must be made of certified material.
Filter version
One active charcoal filter is needed for this and
can be obtained from your usual retailer.
The filter removes the grease and smells from the
extracted air before sending it back into the room
through the upper outlet grid.
The models with no suction motor only operate in
ducting mode, and must be connected to an
external suction device (not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the
peripheral suction unit.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting
surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and
the lowest part of the range hood must be not less
than 65cm from electric cookers and 65cm from
gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob
specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the
rating indicated on the plate situated inside the
hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a
socket in compliance with current regulations and
positioned in an accessible area, after installation.
If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection)
or if the plug is not located in an accessible area,
after installation, apply a double pole switch in
accordance with standards which assures the
complete disconnection of the mains under
conditions relating to over-current category III, in
accordance with installation instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to
the mains supply and checking the efficient
function, always check that the mains cable is
correctly assembled.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the
hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a
qualified technician must verify suitability of the
materials in accordance with the type of
wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong
enough to take the weight of the hood.
Do not tile,
grout or silicone this appliance to the wall.
Surface mounting only.
Operation
Use the high suction speed in cases of
concentrated kitchen vapours. It is recommended
that the cooker hood suction is switched on for 5
minutes prior to cooking and to leave in operation
during cooking and for another 15 minutes
approximately after terminating cooking.
1. Lighting on/off
2. Speed switch
3. Indicator light
4. Intensive setting
Visor switches
The visor switches only work if the light and fan
switches are switched on. If you pull the visor open
the light and fan will go on.
Memory
When you close the visor when the motor is still
running, the fan switches off.
The cooker hood remembers the chosen speed
setting. The indicator light will stay on to indicate
this (green = setting 1, orange = setting 2, red =
setting 3, flashing red = setting 4).
The internal timer that keeps track of the working
hours will keep running during this period.
Therefore the grease filter indication (see page 20)
will be inaccurate.
