Installation - Fig. 6
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 50 cm
from the cooking plane for electric cookers and 75cm for gas or
mixed cookers.
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet „B“ for discharge
of fumes to the outside (Ducting version – exhaust pipe
and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and vapour to
the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version, fitting an
activated carbon filter and the deflector „F“ on the support
(bracket) „G“, fumes and vapours are recycled through the
top grille „H“ by means of an exhaust pipe connected to the
top air outlet „B“ and the connection ring mounted on the
deflector „F“ (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode, and
must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
Preliminary information for installation of the hood:
Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by turning the
home mains switch off.
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to
most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician
must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the
type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough
to take the weight of the hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall.
Surface mounting only.
First decide which functioning version is better for you.
If you decide to use the hood in ducting version we suggest
to position the upper section of the chimney so that the oulet
slots are not visible once installation has ended, on the
contrary if is decided to use the hood in filter version BE
SURE that the side with slots is up (see also „a-b-c“
sequence on on Fig. 6).
Warning! If you are in possession of the model with
optical fibers point lighting then mounting operations „1, 2,
3“ should not be considered, for cooker hood installation
start from operation „4“.
1 . Rest the suction unit on a flat surface and thread the lower
part of the hood onto it (remove the grease filter/s).
2. Make all the electrical connections between the two parts.
3 . Fasten the hood to the suction unit using 4 screws.
4. Using a pencil, draw a line on the wall, extending up to the
ceiling, to mark the centre. This will facilitate installation.
5. Rest the drilling template against the wall: the vertical centre line
printed on the drilling template must correspond to the centre
line drawn on the wall, and the bottom edge of the drilling
template must correspond to the bottom edge of the hood: bear
in mind that, when installation is complete, the underside of the
hood must be at least 50 cm above the cooker top in the case
of electric cookers, and at least 75 cm above the cooker top in
the case of gas or mixed cookers.
6. Rest the support bracket on the drilling template so that it
coincides with the dotted rectangle, mark the two outer holes
and drill them, remove the drilling template, insert 2 wall
plugs and fix the hood support bracket into place using
two 5x45mm screws.
7 . Hang the hood on the bracket.
8 . Adjust the distance of the hood from the wall.
9. Adjust the horizontal position of the hood.
10. Remove the carbon filter frame (see also Fig. 3); mark
the drill hole, using a pencil, for fastening the hood to the
w a l l .
11. Remove the hood from the bracket.
1 2 . Drill at the point marked (Ø8mm - see operation 10).
1 3 . Insert 1 wall plug.
1 4 . Rest the chimney support bracket „G“ against the wall,
touching the ceiling. Use the support bracket as a drilling
template (the small slot formed on the support must
coincide with the line drawn on the wall as above –
operation 4) and mark 2 holes with a pencil, dril the holes
(Ø8mm), insert 2 wall plugs.
15. Fix the chimney support bracket to the wall using two 5x45mm
screws.
1 6 . Hook the hood onto the bottom bracket.
1 7 . Fasten the hood to the wall with 1 5x45 mm screw
(ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY), remount the carbon
filter frame (see also Fig. 3).
18. Connect a pipe (pipe and pipe clamps not provided, to be
purchased separately) for discharge of fumes to the connection
ring located over the suction motor unit.
If the hood is to be used in ducting version, the other end of the
pipe must be connected to a device expelling the fumes to the
outside. If the hood is to be used in filter version, fix
deflector „F“ to the chimney support bracket „G“ using
4 screws, and connect the other end of the pipe to the
connection ring on deflector „F“.
19. Make the electrical connections.
20. Apply the chimney stacks and fasten them at the top to the
chimney support „G“ (20b) using 2 screws (20a).
Only for model with optical fibers point lighting:
Check that the chimneys may be removed to permit
access to the optical fibers lamp housing area.
2 1 . Slide the bottom section of the chimney down until it
completely covers the suction unit and slots into the
housing provided on top of the hood.
2 2 . Fasten the bottom section of the chimney with 2 screws
(only for model A - Fig. 1).
Replace the grease filter/s and check that the hood is
operating correctly.
Electrical connection
The electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted on the
label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the electrical plug,
where provided, to the an easily accessible outlet in conformity with
local standards in force.
Where an electrical plug is not provided (for direct connection to
electrical network) place a standards approved bipolar switch with
an aperture distance of not less than 3mm (accessible) from the
contacts.
INSTRUCTION ON MOUNTING AND USE
Consult the designs in the front pages referenced in the text by alphabet letters. Closely follow the instructions set out in this
