Safety measures
The cooker hood is designed to operate for extraction to the outside. It is important therefore
to ensure that sufficient air enters the kitchen for correct operation.
The hood cannot be connected to flues of other appliances that run on energy sources other
than electricity.
Should the cooker hood be installed in a kitchen with an instant water-heater or a gas-heating
system, it is strongly recommended for safety reasons not to use external extraction. In this
circumstance a unit with an active charcoal filter must be used. This can be obtained from your
retailer and it uses recirculated air.
The cooker hood should be placed at least 65 cm above the hob (glass-ceramic or traditional
electric hobs) or 75 cm where gas is used.
If the hood is run at the same time as a burner or fireplace that depend on ambient air (for
example gas, Diesel, coal or wood heaters, water heaters, etc.) be careful, because the hood,
when it exhausts the air, removes the ambient air required by the burner or fireplace for
combustion.
For secure operation and to prevent discharged gas from coming back in, the vacuum must not
exceed 0,04 mbr.
This may be done by making sure the air inlet into the room passes through non-closing
openings such as air recycling wall boxes, doors, windows or with other technical measures.
The use of an unprotected flame is dangerous for the filters and could cause fires.
Therefore, never use an open flame under the hood.
The hood must not be connected to fuel exhaust flues (boilers, heating systems, water heaters,
and so on).
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.
