Precautions for operation
The accessories required for the installation of the
hood can be found inside the latter.
The hood is convertible and can therefore be
installed in either the OUTDOOR VENTING or the
AIR RECIRCULATION mode.
1. Before installing and/or using this hood,
please read the instructions carefully and
thoroughly.
2. Before you install the hood, make sure the
voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) indicated on
the serial and technical data plate located
inside the appliance correspond with the
voltage and frequency available in the place
of installation.
3.
After having removed the packaging, check that
the appliance is intact. If in doubt, do not use the
appliance and contact professionally qualified
personnel.
4.
All installation and adjustment operations should
be carried out by a qualified technician in
accordance with the regulations in force. Specific
indications are given in the section intended for
the installer.
5. Clean the hood according to the manufacturer's
instructions, especially for the deposits formed
on the dirty surfaces to avoid any risks of fire.
6. Ensure the burners are always covered so as not
to cause the hood filter to overheat.
7. When frying food, never leave the pan unattended:
the oil inside the pan could overheat and catch
fire. If the pan contains oil which has already been
used to fry, the risk of spontaneous ignition is
even greater.
8. It is strictly forbidden to flambé food beneath the
cooker hood.
9. The lowest part of the hood must be positioned at
least 65 cm above the hob.If the installation
instructions for the gas cooker specify a greater
distance, take this measurement into
consideration when installing the hood.
10.This hood is intended for domestic use only.
11.This hood may only be used for the extraction of
fumes and smoke produced while cooking foods.
12.The appliance must not be installed above stoves
with a top radiant hotplate.
Ducted ("air extraction") version:
13 The air collected should not be conveyed in a duct
used for the discharge of exhaust fumes from
appliances that run on energy sources other than
electricity.
14.Suitable ventilation of the room must be provided
when the hood and appliances that run on energy
sources other than electricity are used at the
same time.
15. If the hood is used in the outdoor venting mode,
check the condition of the exhaust duct should
the latter have been left unused for an extended
period of time.
16. Remember to pay attention to the local norms in
force and to the regulations from the competent
authorities on the subject of air exhaust when the
hood is operating in the outdoor venting mode.
All advice given on this matter must be followed
scrupulously in order to avoid possible fires.
We shall not be held responsible for any
damage or fires resulting from the non-
observance of the above instructions when using this
appliance.
Information relating to installation
The hood can operate in the following ways:
Ducted ("air extraction") version:
Smoke and steam are drawn in, then directed
through a suitable duct (sold separately) until they
are expelled outside or into a purpose-built shared
exhaust duct.
If fitted, remove the carbon filter.
The airflow deviator must not be installed.
Filter ("air recirculation") version:
Smoke and steam are drawn in and purified using an
active carbon filter, then redirected back into the
kitchen with the help of the airflow deviator.
Make sure that the hood is already fitted with a
carbon filter; if necessary, order one and install it.
You will also need a short piece of ducting (sold
separately) to connect the motor assembly outlet to
the flow deviator.
