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 manual. All responsibility, for any eventual
inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying
with the instructions in this manual, is declined.
Use
The hood is designed to be utilized either for suction version at
external evacuation or filtering version at internal recirculation.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of
fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
provided). Attention!
If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be
removed.
Filter version
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).
Attention!
If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must
be ordered and mounted.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and
70cm from gas or mixed cookers.If the instructions for
installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must
be adhered to.
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.
Attention: substituting the supply cable must be carried out by
the authorised technical assistance service.
Mounting
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.
Operation
Use the high suction speed in cases of concentrated kitchen
vapours. It is recommended that the cooker hood suction is
switched on for 5 minutes prior to cooking and to leave in
operation during cooking and for another 15 minutes
approximately after terminating cooking.
