correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact:
Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start coo-
king and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is fini-
shed. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of
smoke and vapor and use boost speed(s) only in extreme
situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to
maintain a good odor reduction efficiency. Clean the grease
filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter effi-
ciency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system
indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and minimize
noise.
Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting
or filter version
.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the ran-
ge 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 gre-
ater distance, this must be adhered to.
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indica-
ted 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 installa-
tion. 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.
Operation
The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed
selection control and a light switch to control cooking area
lights.
Maintenance
Clean using ONLY the cloth dampened with neutral liquid
detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRU-
MENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE AL-
COHOL!
Grease filter
Fig. 5-14
The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using non
aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher,
which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolor
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
Fig. 13
The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less
prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the
regularity of cleaning of the grease filter.
In any case it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least
every four months.
The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated.
Replacing lamps
The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED
technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10
times as long as the traditional lamps and allow to save 90%
electrical energy.
For replacement, contact the technical service.
