INSTALLATION
intended only for qualified personnel
Before installing the hood, carefully read the section 'SAFETY IN-
STRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS'.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
The technical specifications are exhibited on the labels located inside the hood.
POSITIONING
The minimum distance between the highest part of the cooking equipment and the
lowest part of the hood is indicated in the installation instructions.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to outdoor environment (rain, wind, etc.).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
(intended only for qualified personnel)
Disconnect the equipment from electrical mains power supply before carry-
ing out any operations on the hood.
Ensure that the wires inside the hood are not disconnected or cut:
in the event of damage, contact your nearest Servicing Department.
Refer to qualified personnel for electrical connections.
Connection must be carried out in compliance with the provisions of law in force.
Before connecting the hood to the electrical mains power supply, check that:
• voltage supply corresponds with what is reported on the data plate located inside the
hood;
• the electrical system is compliant and can withstand the load (see the technical specifi-
cations located inside the hood);
• the power supply plug and cable do not come into contact with temperatures exceed-
ing 70 °C;
• the power supply system is effectively and properly connected to earth in compliance
with regulations in force;
• the socket used to connect the hood is within reach.
In case of:
• devices fitted with cables without a plug: the type of plug to use is a ''standardised'' one.
The wires must be connected as follows: yellow-green for grounding, blue for neutral
and brown for the live. The plug must be connected to an adequate safety socket.
• fixed equipment not provided with a power supply cable and plug, or any other device
that ensures disconnection from the electrical mains, with an opening gap of the con-
tacts that enables total disconnection in overvoltage category III conditions.
Said disconnection devices must be provided in the mains power supply in compliance
with installation regulations.
The Ground cable must not be cut off by the switch.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with the safety regulations.
FUMES DISCHARGE
EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD (SUCTION)
In this version the fumes and vapours are discharged outside through
the exhaust pipe.
To this end, the hood outlet fitting must be connected via a pipe, to an
external output.
The outlet pipe must have:
• a diameter not less than that of the hood fitting.
• a slight slope downwards (drop) in the horizontal sections to prevent condensation from
flowing back into the motor.
• the minimum required number of bends.
• the minimum required length to avoid vibrations and reduce the suction performance of
the hood.
You are required to insulate the pipes if it passes through cold environments.
In the presence of motors with 800m
3
/h or higher, a check valve is present to prevent
external air flowing back.
HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING) - OPTIONAL
In this model, the air passes through the charcoal filters to be purified
and recycled in the environment.
Ensure that the active carbon filters are assembled into the hood, if not,
install them as indicated in the assembly instructions.
In this version the check valve must not be assembled: remove it if it is on the air
outlet fitting of the motor.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
intended only for qualified personnel
The hood can be installed in various configurations.
The generic assembly steps apply to all installations; for each case, follow
the specific steps provided for the required installation.
OPERATION
WHEN TO TURN ON THE HOOD?
Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook to direct fumes and vapours
towards the suction surface.
WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?
1st speed:
maintains the circulation of clean air with low electricity consumption.
2nd speed:
normal conditions of use.
3rd speed:
presence of strong odours and vapours.
WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?
The metal filters must be cleaned every 30 hours of operation.
For further details refer to the
“MAINTENANCE”
section.

ONLY FOR HOODS WITH TWO MOTORS
There are two sliders in hoods equipped with double motor: each slider is associated with
a single motor.
As for lighting, in hoods with two spotlights a slider controls them both, while the light
switch of the other slider is inhibited; in the presence of three or more spotlights, each slider
controls a part of it.
