The hood in order to work effectively must be started up just when you switch on your kitchen. When cooking finishes,
wait another ten minutes before stopping the operation. During cooking leave one door that communicates with the
interior of your house ajar. Do not leave the window or exterior kitchen door open because air flows blow away the
produced by cooking gases far from the hood and spread in space.
CAUTION
If hood and fireplace or an oil gas heater or wood or other combustible operate all at once, you
must leave an open window or door that communicates with an external space.
