Use:
Two systems are available
Exhaust mode
Vapours are extracted outside through an exhausting
pipe that is affixed to the connection ring above the
hood (Fig. 1-S).
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.
If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be
removed.
Filter version
The air is filtered through a carbon filter (for its montage
see paragraph “Carbon filter”) and recirculated into the
room through the baffle (Fig.1-K).
If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must
be ordered and mounted.
This version is used when there is no exhausting pipe
for venting outdoors or when it is impossible to install
one.
Installation - Fig. 2-3-4-5
When installed, the distance between hood and burners
must be not less than 65 cm. Above electric burners or
75 cm. above gas or mixed-fuel burners.
The best performance of the unit is obtained in the
exhaust mode.
The best performances are obtained with short pipes
(max. 4 m) and with few curves.
Electric connection (not for UK)
