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 40cm 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.
Warning! Power cable replacement must be undertaken by
the authorised service assistance centre or similar qualified
person.
Mounting
Before beginning installation:
• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for
the chosen installation area.
• Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also
relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only
if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other
supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with
screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing
them and keeping them.
• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective
covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect
from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for
assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective
covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware
in it.
• In addition check whether near the installation area of the
hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted)
an electric socket is available and it is possible to
connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only
suction version).
• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g.
installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the
passage of the discharge tube).
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.

• Apply three adhesive strips C to the back of the hood.
• Trace a centre line on the wall to facilitate the montage
(1) , position the hole template so that the middle line
printed on it corresponds to the centre line previously
drawn and that the lower side of the grill corresponds to
the lower part of the hood once mounted
(2) .
• Make two holes with the 8 mm Ø drill and fix the support
bracket with two dowels and wall screws
(3) .
• Open the steam screen and remove the grease filter (see
relative paragraph).
Fix the chimney bracket with two dowels and wall screws
(4) .
• Hang up the hood (5) , adjusting its position (6-7) and
from the inner part of the hood mark two points for the
definitive fixing. Remove the hood and make two 8 mm Ø
holes
(9) , insert two wall dowels, hang the hood up again
and fix it definitively with two screws (10) .
• Connect the electricity (11) , but leave the hood
disconnected from the general electric panel of the
house.
• If the hood is to be used in the suction version, install the
flange supplied in the kit on the exit hole of the hood
(
12A - suction version – also install a fumes discharge
tube of suitable dimensions) instead of the deflector ( 12F
or 12G – filtering version ).
• Mount the grease filter and close the steam screen.
Attention! If the hood is to be used in the suction
version, remove, if supplied with the kit, the carbon filter
and the fixing rods (on the back of the grease filter – see
relative paragraph).
If the hood is to be used in the filtering version, check
that the carbon filter is already mounted on the back of
the grease filter or, in its absence, purchase it and install
it.
• Install the upper cover with 3 screws (13) .
• Installa the chimney (14a) to the bracket (14b) with two
screws.
Attention! For the filtering version chimney may be
installed or not according your needs.
• Slide bottom section of the chimney inside the proper
housing on top of the hood.
• Connect the hood to the general electric panel, wait for
about 15 seconds to allow the hood to calibrate the
control panel (the leds of the controls flash) and check
the functioning.
