If the appliance is connected directly to the electricity supply,
an omnipolar switch with a minimum contact opening of
3 mm must be placed in between the two; its size must
be suitable for the load required and it must comply with
current legislation.
• If the hob is electric, gas, or induction, the minimum distance
between the same and the lower part of the hood must be
at least 65 cm.
If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper
part must be placed outside the lower part.
Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same conduc-
tor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other
appliances generated by other than an electrical source.
Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove
the anti-grease fi lter(s) (Fig.16) so that the unit is easier to
handle.
In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version
prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.
• We recommend the use of an air exhaust pipe with a
diameter of 150. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the
effi ciency of the product may be reduced and its operation
may become noisier
• Hood assembly
Remove the structure from the packaging and remove the
2 screws A to separate the upper part from the lower part
(Fig.2).
- Position hole template on the ceiling paying attention that
the arrow is positioned on the same side as the appliance
controls (Fig.3).
Make 4, Ø8 holes in the ceiling and drive in 3 screws without
completely tightening them. Pay attention not to insert the
screw into the hole marked with an X on the hole template
(the screws and expansion plugs must be suitable for the
type of wall).
- Take the upper part of the structure B (Fig.4) and insert the 3
slots onto the 3 screws that are not completely tightened.
Rotate slightly to fi t (Fig.4) .
Drive in the fourth screw X and tighten the remaining 3 to
allow defi nitive blocking of the upper part of structure B
- Take the lower part of the telescopic structure C and insert
it into the upper structure B (Fig.5).
Adjust the height by referring to the amounts indicated in
(Fig.15) and block it using the 8 screws G that are supplied
(Fig.6).
• Suction version: fi x the fl exible pipe to the prepared air
evacuation hole (Fig 7).
• Filtering version: We have two different types of Kit, one
with extractable carbon filters (Fig.18) and the other one with
re-usable carbon filters (washable). (Fig.19)
If you find a bracket such as the one indicated in Fig.20
included in the product packaging, this should be fixed to
the hood using the supplied screws.
- Fix the fl exible pipe to the defl ector M and fi x screw I as
indicated in (Fig.8), the active carbon fi lters must be applied
to the suction unit positioned inside the hood (Fig.18).
- If your product is fi tted with a connector fl ange, perform
the assembly steps indicated in fi g. 9 before fi xing the cooker
hood to the structure.
Take connector fl ange F and fi t it to the upper part of the
cooker hood suction assembly using the 2 screws E (Fig. 9).
- Take the upper chimney piece and fi x it to the structure using
the 2 screws A (Fig.10).
Join the lower chimney piece with the upper one and fi x it
carefully using adhesive tape L (Fig.11a).
- Unscrew the 2 screws O, max 3 mm (Fig.11a).
Insert the suction unit inside the structure paying attention
that the previously unscrewed screws O, hook into the slots
in the lower part as indicated in (Fig.11b).
Drive in the 3 screws N (supplied) and tighten the 2 screws
O (Fig.11b).
- Fix the air evacuation pipe H (not supplied) onto the con-
nection fl ange F (Fig.12)
- Remove adhesive tape L and rest the lower chimney piece
above the cooker hood (Fig.13).
-If the cooker hood is supplied with a lower chimney piece
that must be fi xed to the hood body with screws, remove the
anti-grease fi lters from the hood by acting on the relevant
handles (Fig.16).
- If necessary, fi x the lower duct to the hood from the inside,
using the screws P (Fig. 14).
Re-locate the fi lters in their seat.
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked.
We also recommend that the appliance is left running for
15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order to thoroughly
eliminate all contaminated air.
The eff ective performance of the cooker hood depends on
constant maintenance; the anti-grease fi lter and the active
carbon fi lter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease fi lter is used to trap any grease particles
suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation (the
time it takes for the fi lter to become saturated depends on
the way in which the appliance is used).
- To prevent potential fi re hazards, the anti-grease fi lters should
be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is possible to use
the dishwasher for this task).
- After a few washes, the colour of the fi lters may change. This
does not mean they have to be replaced.
If the replacement and washing instructions are not followed,
the anti-grease fi lters may present a fi re hazard.
• The active carbon fi lters are used to purify the air which is
released back into the room.
The fi lters are not washable or re-usable and must be replaced
at least once every four months.
The active carbon fi lter saturation level depends on the fre-
quency with which the appliance is used, the type of cooking
performed and the regularity with which the anti-grease
fi lters are cleaned.
• Clean the cooker hood frequently, both inside and outside,
using a cloth which has been dampened with denatured
alcohol or neutral, non-abrasive liquid detergents.
• The light on the cooker hood is designed for use during
cooking and not for general room illumination.
Extended use of the light reduces the average duration of
the bulb.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig. 17).
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass pane
C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
Caution: do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig. 18).
In order to replace the dichroic lamps, carefully remove
the lamp from the lamp holder with the help of a small fl at
screwdriver or a similar tool.
PLEASE NOTE! In doing this operation, please take care
