GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information regard-
ing installation safety and maintenance. Keep this infor-
mation booklet accessible for further consultations.
The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting
version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig.1B), filtering
version (air circulation on the inside – Fig.1A) or with
external motor (Fig.1C).
SAFETY PRECAUTION
1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simulta-
neously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on
the air in the environment and are supplied by other than
electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes the air
from the environment which a burner or fireplace need
for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment
must not exceed 4Pa (4x10-5 bar). Provide adequate
ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the
cooker hood.
Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacua-
tion.
Before connecting the model to the electricity net-
work:
- control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance)
to ascertain that the voltage and power correspond to
the network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a
qualified electrician.
- If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be
replaced with another cable or a special assembly, which
may be obtained direct from the manufacturer or from
the Technical Assistance Centre.
2. WARNING !
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may
be a danger hazard.
A) Do not check the status of the filters while the
cooker hood is operating
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or
straight after prolonged use of the lighting
installation.
C) Flambè cooking is prohibited underneath the
cooker hood
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters
and a fire hazard
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the
overheated oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any main-
tenance.
G) This appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without supervision
H) Young children should be supervised to ensure

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly and electrical connections must be carried
out by specialised personnel.
• Electric Connection
The appliance has been manufactured as a class II,
therefore no earth cable is necessary.
The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral
If not provided, connect a plug for the electrical load
indicated on the description label. Where a plug is pro-
vided, the cooker hood must be installed in order that
the plug is easily accessible.
An omnipolar switch with a minimum opening of 3mm
between contacts, in line with the electrical load and local
standards, must be placed between the appliance and
the network in the case of direct connection to the
electrical network.
• The minimum distance between the support surfaces
of the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest
part of the cooker 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
conductor 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 filter(s) (Fig.2b) 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 efficiency of the product may be reduced and its
operation may become noisier.
Note!
- When installing this product we recommend you seek
the help of another individual.
