1) Control panel
2) Grease filters
3) Work-lights
Use
The hood may be used as follows:
— Exhausting version
— Recycling version
Exhausting version
The air is vented outdoors by a duct which
must be connected to the connector ring
(See figure “Installation”).
Choosing the exhausting pipe
The connector ring has a diameter of
150mm.
We suggest to use Ø 150 mm exhausting
pipe.
Recycling version
The air is filtered through a carbon filter
(to install them see paragraph - Carbon
filter -) and recirculated into the room
through the grating on the upper chimney
part.
Attention!
If the hood is not supplied with carbon
filter, then it must be ordered and
mounted.
This version is used when there is no exhaust
duct for venting outdoors or when it is
impossible to install one.
Installation
When installed, the hood must be not less
than 65 cm. above electric burners or 75
cm. above gas or mixed-fuel burners.
Warning!
— The hood cannot be connected to flues of
other appliances that run on energy
sources other than electricity.
— When the hood is used at the same time
of other appliances that run on energy
sources other than electricity, provision
must be made for an adequate supply of
air.
— No food must be cooked flambé
underneath the hood.
The use of an unprotected flame is
dangerous for the filters and could cause
fires.
Therefore, never use an open flame under
the hood. When frying foods, never leave
the pan alone because the cooking oil
could flare up.
— Please, keep to the provisions of official
directives regarding the question of fume
discharge.
— The manufacturers refuse to accept any
responsibility for damage to the hood or
its catching on fire because of failure to
observe the above instructions.
Suggestions for the installation and
use of the hood
— The horizontal sections of the pipe must
be slanted slightly upwards (about 10%)
to ensure an easy flow of the air outwards.
— The best performance of the unit is
obtained in the exhausting version,
therefore in the limits of the possibilities
it is advised to use the hood in this
version.
— The best performances are obtained with
short pipes (max. 4 m) and with few
curves.
Electric connection
Before completing any connection, make
sure the house voltage corresponds with
the voltage indicated on the label affixed
inside the hood.
The hood is supplied with a standard plug;
connect it to a correspondingly standard
socket.
In the case is intended to connect the
appliance permanently to the mains after
having removed the plug supplied, must be
fitted a two-pole switch conforming to
regulations with an opening distance
between contacts of not less than 3mm.
The manufacturers are not liable for any
problems caused by the user’s failure to
observe the above instructions.
