GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information re-
garding installation safety and maintenance. Keep this
infor mation booklet accessible for fur ther
consultations.
The appliance has been designed for use as a ducted
version (air exhaust to the outside - Fig. 1B), or a

SAFETY PRECAUTION
1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating si-
multaneously 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 en-
vironment for a safe operation of the cooker hood.
Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacu-
ation.
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

E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the
overheated oil may become a fire hazard
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any

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
provided, 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, re-
move the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.2c) so that the unit
is easier to handle.
