RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
The instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you
may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.
INSTALLATION
The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or
improper 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 a
pp
liances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate
earthing.
Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120mm.
The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion flumes
(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 discharge of air
have to be fulfilled.
USE
The extractor hood has been designed 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 operation.
Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making sure that
it does not engulf the sides.
Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst
into flames.
Do not flame under the range hood; risk of fire.
