GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information regard-
ing installation safety and maintenance. Keep this infor-
mation booklet accessible for further consultations.
The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting
version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering
version (air circulation on the inside – Fig.1A) or with
external motor (Fig.1C).
SAFETY PRECAUTION
1.
Take care when the cooker hood is operating simulta-
neously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on
the air in the environment and are supplied by other than
electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes the air
from the environment which a burner or fireplace need for
combustion. The negative pressure in the environment
must not exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate
ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the
cooker hood.
Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacua-
tion.
Before connecting the model to the electricity network:
- control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance)
to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to
the network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a
qualified electrician.
2. WARNING !
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be
a danger hazard.
A) Do not check the status of the filters while the
cooker hood is operating
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or
straight after prolonged use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker
hood
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters
and a fire hazard
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the over-
heated oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any mainte-
nance.
G) This appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without supervision
H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they
do not play with the appliance
I)
There shall be adequate ventilation of the room
when the rangehood is used at the same time as appli-
ances burning gas or other fuels
L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out
in accordance with the instructions
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly and electrical connections must be carried
out by specialised personnel.
• Electric Connection
The appliance has been manufactured as a class II,
therefore no earth cable is necessary.
The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN =
L
line
BLUE =
N
neutral
If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load
indicated on the description label. Where a plug is pro-
vided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that the
plug is easily accessible.
An omnipolar switch with a minimum opening of 3mm
between contacts, in line with the electrical load and
local standards, must be placed between the appliance
and the network in the case of direct connection to the
electrical network.
•
The minimum distance between the support surfaces of
the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of
the cooker hood must be at least 65 cm.
If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the
upper part must be placed outside the lower part.
Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same
conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating
fumes from other appliances generated by other than an
electrical source.
Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove
the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.6) so that the unit is easier
to handle.
In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction
version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
•
If your appliance has been designed for use in habitations
supplied with acentralised suction device perform the
following operations:
-The switch controls opening and closure of a valve
using a thermoelectical device. By placing the switch in
the
ON
position, after a minute, the valve opens rotating
90° allowing suction of the stale air. By placing the switch
in the
OFF
position, the valve closes after 100 seconds.
• FIXING TO THE WALL
Drill the holes
A
respecting the distances indicated (Fig.2).
Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal
position to the wall units. When the appliance has been
adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws
A
(Fig.4).
For the various installations use screws and screw an-
chors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete,
plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are
provided with the product, check that they are suitable
for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.
• FIXING THE DECORATIVE TELESCOPIC FLUE
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimen-
sions of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be
installed in the ducting version or in the version with
external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust
the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.3).
Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws
A
(Fig.3) in
such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting
