Installation Recommendations
Please read this instruction manual before installing and using this range hood. Keep this
instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.
This range hood can be used either in the Ducted Mode (ducting fumes to the outside) or in the
Recirculation Mode (internal recycling). The choice of modes can be left to customers.
Only a qualified and trained service technician can undertake the work of installation and
servicing. At least two people will be required to mount the range hood.
Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the one indicated on the rating plate fixed inside
the range hood.
Check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
Do not connect the range hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers,
fireplaces, etc.).
If the range hood 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 directly with the open air in
order to guarantee the entry of clean air to the room.
The minimum distance between the supporting surface of the cooking surface for the cooking
vessels of the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be 650mm. If the installation
instructions for gas hobs specify a greater distance, this must be taken into account.
On stainless steel hoods, carefully remove the plastic protective film from all exterior surfaces
of the hood and chimney prior to final installation.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper
installation.
