to handle.
In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction
version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
•
We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which
has the same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a
pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of
the product may be reduced and its operation may
become noisier.
• Fixing to the wall
Drill the holes
A1
respecting the distances indicated
(Fig.2). Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in
horizontal position to the wall units.
When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the
hood using the screws
A2
(Fig.5).
For the various installations use screws and screw an-
chors 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.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue
Take care not to scratch the duct; wear gloves when
removing the protective film. (Fig. 3).
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimen-
sions 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 to 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.2.
Connect the flange
C
to the air exhaust hole using a
connection pipe (Fig.5).
Insert the upper flue into the lower flue and rest above
the frame. Extract the upper flue up to the bracket and
fix it with the screws
B
(Fig.4).
To transform the hood from a ducting version into a
filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters
and follow the installation instructions.
• Filtering version
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. If the kit is not provided, order it
from your dealer as accessory.
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. 8).
Use and maintenance
•
We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on
before any food is cooked. We also recommend that the
appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the food is
cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated
air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood depends
on constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the
active carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter
is used to trap any grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore is subject to
saturation (the time it takes for the filter to become
saturated depends on the way in which the appliance is
used).
- To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters
should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is
possible to use the dishwasher for this task).
- After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change.
This does not mean they have to be replaced.
If the replacement and washing instructions are not fol-
lowed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.
• The active carbon filters
are used to purify the air
which is released back into the room. The filters are not
washable or re-usable and must be replaced at least once
every four months. The active carbon filter saturation level
depends on the frequency with which the appliance is
used, the type of cooking performed and the regularity
with which the anti-grease filters are cleaned.
• Clean the cooker hood frequently, both inside and
outside, using a cloth which has been dampened with
denatured alcohol or neutral,
non
-abrasive liquid
detergents.
• The light on the cooker hood is designed for use during
cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended
use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb.
