PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION

this is a heavy product; the hood should only be lifted and installed by two or more people.

The minimum distance between the cooking pans on top of the cooker and the bottom of the hood must not be less than 45 cm for electric cookers and 40 cm
for gas or mixed cookers.
Before installation also check the minimum distances stated in the manual of the cooker.
If the installation instructions for the cooker specify a greater distance between cooker and hood, this distance must be observed.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Make sure the power voltage specified on the appliance rating plate is the same as the mains voltage.
This information may be found on the inside of the hood, under the grease filter.
Power cable replacement (type H05 VV-F) must be carried out by a qualified electrician. Contact an authorized service centre.
If the hood is fitted with an electric plug, connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place. If no plug is fitted
(direct wiring to the mains), or if the socket is not located in an accessible place, install a standardised double pole power switch that will enable complete
isolation from the mains in case of category III overvoltage conditions, in accordance with installation rules.
