Recommendations
and suggestions
• The Instructions for Use apply
to several versions of this ap-
pliance. Accordingly, you may
find descriptions of individual
features that do not apply to
your specific appliance.
• The manufacturer will not be
held liable for any damages
resulting from incorrect or im-
proper installation.
• The minimum safety distance
between the cooker top and
the extractor hood is 650 mm
(some models can be installed
at a lower height, please refer
to the paragraphs on working
dimensions and installation).
• 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 of
minimum diameter 120 mm.
The route of the flue must be
as short as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor
hood to exhaust ducts carry-
ing combustion fumes (boilers,
fireplaces, etc.).
• 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
the backflow of 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.
• In the event of damage to the
power cable, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer or by the
technical service department, in
order to prevent any risks.
• If the instructions for installation
for the gas hob specify a greater
distance specified above, this
has to be taken into account.
Regulations concerning the dis-
charge of air have to be fulfilled.
• Use only screws and small parts
in support of the hood.
Warning:
Failure to install the
screws or fixing device in ac
-
cordance with these instructions
may result in electrical hazards.
• Connect the hood to the mains
through a two-pole switch having
a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
Use
• The extractor hood has been de-
signed exclusively for domestic
use to eliminate kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes
other than for which it has been
designed.
•
Never leave high naked flames
under the hood when it is in
