Instruction on mounting and use

Note: the elements marked with the symbol "(*)" are optional
accessories supplied only with some models or elements to
purchase, not supplied.

Use

The hood is conceived for the suction of cooking fumes and
steam and is destined only for domestic use.
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.

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).
Filter version
In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the
steam of cooking outside, the hood in the filter version can
be used mounting the F deflector on the flue and one or more
carbon filters (on the basis of the model possessed). The
fumes and steam are recycled into the kitchen through upper
grill H.

Installation

The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the
range hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers
and 65cm 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 mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with
a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current
regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after
installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection)
or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after
installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with
standards which assures the complete disconnection of the
mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in
accordance with installation instructions.
Warning! Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains
supply and checking the efficient function, always check that
the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Mounting

Before beginning installation:
• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for
the chosen installation area.
• Remove the charcoal (*) filter/s if supplied (see also
relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only
if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other
supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with
screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing
them and keeping them.
• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective
covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect
from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for
assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective
covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware
in it.
• In addition check whether near the installation area of the
hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted)
an electric socket is available and it is possible to
connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only
suction version).
• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g.
installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the
passage of the discharge tube).
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.

1 With a pencil, make a line on the wall, up to the ceiling,
corresponding to the centre line, it will make the
installation operations easy.

line printed on the drilling diagram shall correspond to the
centre line drawn on the wall. Furthermore, the lower
edge of the drilling diagram corresponds to the lower
edge of the hood.
3 Make the holes indicated on the template, insert the wall
plugs equipped with hooks and adjustment screws.
4 Apply the chimney stirrup to the wall next to the ceiling,
use the stirrup as template (the small notch on the upper
side must correspond to the centre line previously
marked on the wall), mark 2 holes with a pencil. Make the
holes and insert 2 plugs.
5 Fix the chimney support stirrup to the wall by 2 screws.
