1. RECOMMENDATIONS
AND SUGGESTIONS
• The Instructions for Use apply
to several versions of this ap-
pliance. Accordingly, you may
find descriptions of individual
features that do not apply to
your specific appliance.
• The manufacturer will not be
held liable for any damages
resulting from incorrect or
improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance
between the cooker top and
the extractor hood is 650 mm
(some models can be installed
at a lower height, please refer
to the paragraphs on working
dimensions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage
corresponds to that indicated
on the rating plate fixed to the
inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check
that the domestic power supply
guarantees adequate earth-
ing. Connect the extractor to
the exhaust flue through a pipe
of minimum diameter 120 mm.
The route of the flue must be
as short as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor
hood to exhaust ducts carry-
ing combustion fumes (boilers,
fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in con-
junction with non-electrical ap-
pliances (e.g. gas burning ap-
pliances), a sufficient degree of
aeration must be guaranteed in
the room in order to prevent the
backflow of exhaust gas. The
kitchen must have an open-
ing communicating directly
with the open air in order to
guarantee the entry of clean
air. When the cooker hood is
used in conjunction with ap-
pliances supplied with energy
other than electric, the negative
pressure in the room must not
exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent
fumes being drawn back into
the room by the cooker hood.
• In the event of damage to
the power cable, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer
or by the technical service
department, in order to prevent
any risks.
• If the instructions for installa-
tion for the gas hob specify
a greater distance specified
above, this has to be taken into
account. Regulations concern-
ing the discharge of air have
to be fulfilled.
• Use only screws and small
parts in support of the hood.
Warning: Failure to install
the screws or fixing device in
accordance with these instruc-
tions may result in electrical
hazards.
• Connect the hood to the mains
through a two-pole switch hav-
ing a contact gap of at least
3 mm.
