This appliance is marked according to the
European directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE).
WEEE contains both polluting substances (which can cause
negative consequences for the environment) and basic
components (which can be re-used). It is important to have
WEEE subjected to specific treatments, in order to remove
and dispose properly all pollutants, and recover and recycle all
materials.
Individuals can play an important role in ensuring that WEEE
does not become an environmental issue; it is essential to
follow some basic rules:
−
WEEE should not be treated as household waste;
−
WEEE should be handed over to the relevant collection
points managed by the municipality or by registered
companies. In many countries, for large WEEE, home
collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new appliance, the old one
may be returned to the retailer who has to collect it free of
charge on a one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of
equivalent type and has the same functions as the supplied
equipment.
Appliance designed, tested and manufactured according to:
• Safety: EN/IEC 60335-1; EN/IEC 60335-2-31, EN/IEC
62233.
• Performance: EN/IEC 61591; ISO 5167-1; ISO 5167-3; ISO
5168; EN/IEC 60704-1; EN/IEC 60704-2-13; ISO 3741; EN

EN/IEC 61000-3-2; EN/IEC 61000-3-3. Suggestions for a
correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact:
Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start
cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is
finished. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of
smoke and vapour and use boost speed(s) only in extreme
situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to
maintain a good odour reduction efficiency. Clean the grease
filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter
efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system
indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize
noise.
By placing the
marking on this product, we declare,
on our own responsability, compliance to all of European
safety, health and environmental requirements stated in the
legislation for this product.
Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Extraction version
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by
means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring
located on top of the hood.
CAUTION
!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased
apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the
connection ring.
CAUTION
!
If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must
be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a
diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance
and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
!
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum
elbow angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Filtration version
The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before
being fed back into the room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a
system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the
range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers
and 70cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a
greater distance, this must be adhered to.
