RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
The instructions apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual
features that do not apply to your appliance.
INSTALLATION
●
The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or
improper installation.
●
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the
hob and the lowest part of the cooker hood. (When the cooker hood is located above a
gas appliance, the distance shall be at least 65 cm. If the installation instructions for the
gas hob specify a greater distance, it has to be taken into account. The distance of 65
cm can be reduced for non-combustible parts of the cooker hood and parts operating
at safety extra low voltage, provided these parts do not give access to live parts if
deformed.)
● Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to
the inside of the hood.
●
For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
● Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe with the minimum diameter of 120 mm.
● The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
● The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances, burning gas or
other fuels.
● If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient
degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent backflow of the exhaust gas. The kitchen
must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
●
When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the
negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by
the cooker hood.
● If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
● Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
USE
●
The cooker hood is only for home use, not suitable for barbecue, roast shop and other commercial purposes.
●
Never use the hood for purposes other than those intended.
● Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
● Adjust the flame intensity to direct the the flame upto the bottom of a pan only,
