DESCRIPTION
The unit can be found in filtering hoods, ducting hoods or in hoods with an outside motor. In the Filtering version
the air and the kitchen fumes that are conveyed by the apparatus are depurated by the charcoal filters and put back
into the room through the small grilles of the ventilation flues (Fig. 1). ATTENTION: When using the filtering version,
2 charcoal filters and an 2 air baffles (Fig. 1A) must be used, which placed at the top of the structure, allows the air
to recycle back into the room. In the Ducting version, cooking vapours and odours are conveyed straight outside
by 2 disposal ducts which pass through the ceiling (Fig. 2). In the hoods with an outside motor (Fig. 3), a vacuum
suction unit must be connected; this exhaust will operate separately, conveying the exhaust air through the unit. Only
use vacuum units suggested in the original catalogue.
INSTALLATION
ATTENTION: Three people are required for proper installation; the unit should be installed by a qualified
operator. Also follow carefully each step of the assembly instructions, and once installation has been
completed, make sure that the hood is firmly secured in place.
To facilitate installation, before starting remove the grease filters: press inward on the clamp at the handle and
pull the filter downward (Fig. 4).
For assembling it is essential to: – Prepare the connection to the mains within the telescopic flues. – If your unit
is installed in a ducting hood or in a hood with outside motor, prepare the air exhaust hole.
When installing ducting hoods and hoods with external motor, to achieve the best possible conditions use an
air exhaust pipe that : is as short as possible, has a minimum of curves (maximum angle: 90°), is made of a material
that complies with the standards (which vary from nation to nation) and is smooth on the inside. It is also advisable
to avoid any drastic changes in pipe section (diameter: 150 mm).
ASSEMBLING - Using the special drilling template, drill the holes for fixing to the ceiling on the vertical side of
your hob. Carefully observe all the indications for final positioning of the apparatus. Take into account that one of
the template axes must correspond to the axis of the hood controls. Fix the brackets to the ceiling using the screws
and screw anchors provided (Fig. 5). Be careful, because the position of the brackets determines the final position
of the apparatus: the side with the slot B corresponds to the side opposite the commands. Assemble the plates of
the electrical system fixing it with 6 screws and 4 metal washers (Fig. 6).
Ducting version and version with an external motor: Fix the telescopic structures to the brackets by means of 4+4
screws (provided), running the air evacuation pipes through the telescopic structures and the electric power cables
through the special holes in the brackets (Fig. 7). Adjust the height of the telescopic structures by means of the 4+4
retaining screws C (Fig. 8), taking into account that the height of the hood is 80 mm and that the distance between
the hood and the hob must be at least 650 mm (Fig. 9). Take the upper pipes (with the round slots) and fit them on
the telescopic structures with the slots facing downwards; fit the pipes to the brackets with 4 screws (Fig. 10). Take
the lower pipes and fit them in the same manner as before; slide them to the top and stop them in that position using
a screw inserted in the hole of the upper pipe as a catch (Fig. 11).
Take the flanges with the metal valves (Fig. 12H) and assemble them onto the opening of the hood for air venting,
pressing slightly. Fit the hood to the telescopic structures by means of 4 +4 screws (provided) – Fig. 13.
Through openings D (Fig. 13) fix the air evacuation pipe to flange H.
Only for models with external motor (Fig. 14): connect the hood to the external motors using the special terminal block:
remove wire clamp A and lid B from the wiring junction box; fix the connecting wire of the external motor to terminal
C; then replace wire clamp A and lid B on the wiring junction box; the other end of the wire is secured to the terminal
block on the external motors.
Make the electrical connection by means of the power cable. Remove the screw used as catch and slide the lower
pipes downwards, placing them gently on the apparatus. Installation is now complete and the anti-grease filters can
be reassembled.
Filtering version: Fix the telescopic structures to the brackets by means of 4+4 screws (provided), running the electric
power cable through the special hole in the bracket (Fig. 7). Adjust the height of the telescopic structures by means
of the 4+4 retaining screws C (Fig. 8), taking into account that the height of the hood is 80 mm and that the distance
between the hood and the hob must be at least 650 mm (Fig. 9). Insert the air baffles (F) in the structure (Fig.15).
Through the openings E (Fig.16), fit the flanges (G) to the baffles (F) locking them with a turning movement. Fix a
flexible pipe to the flanges (G) for air evacuation (Fig. 16). Take the upper pipes (with the round slots) and fit them
on the telescopic structure with the slots facing upwards; fit the pipes to the bracket with 2+2 screws (Fig. 17). Take
the lower pipes and fit them in the same manner as before; slide them to the top and stop them in that position using
a screw inserted in the hole of the upper pipe as a catch (Fig. 11).
Take the flanges (Fig. 18H) with the metal valves and assemble them onto the air venting opening of the hood,
pressing slightly.
Fit the hood to the telescopic structures by means of 4+4 screws (provided) – Fig. 19.
Fix the air evacuation pipes onto the reductions (L).
Make the electrical connection by means of the power cable. Remove the screw used as catch and slide the lower
