FUMES DISCHARGE
HOOD WITH INTERNAL RECIRCULATION (FILTERING)
In this version, air passes through zeolite-carbon filters
and the E.ION ionising system to be purified and recycled
in the environment. Make sure the zeolite-carbon filters
are installed in the hood, otherwise, apply them as indi-
cated in the assembly instructions.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
only intended for personnel qualified
The hood can be installed in various configurations.
The generic assembly steps apply to all installations; for each case,
follow the specific steps provided for the required installation.
OPERATION
WHEN TO TURN ON THE HOOD?
Switch on the hood at least one minute before starting to cook to direct fumes
and vapours towards the suction surface.
After cooking, leave the hood operating until complete extraction of all vapours
and odours. By means of the Timer function, it is possible to set auto switch-off
function which will allow the hood to turn off automatically after 15 minutes of
operation.
AIR QUALITY
Air quality is displayed by the colour of the leaf.
Green = excellent quality.
Yellow = pollutant agents found.
The higher the number of pollutant agents, the darker
the yellow
colour.
WHICH SPEED IS TO BE SELECTED?
1st speed: maintains the circulation of clean air with low electricity consump-
tion.
2nd speed: normal conditions of use.
3rd speed: presence of strong odours and vapours.
WHEN SHOULD THE FILTERS BE WASHED OR REPLACED?
The metal filters must be cleaned every 30 hours of operation.
The zeolite-carbon filters must be reactivated every 18 months and replaced
every 3 years.
For further details see the "MAINTENANCE" chap.

If the pushbutton panel is completely inactive, before contacting
the Technical assistance service, disconnect power temporarily
to the appliance (about 5"), possibly by acting on the main swi-
tch, to restore normal operation.
If this measure has no effect, contact the Technical assistance service.
MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, discon-
nect the equipment by removing the plug or switching off the
main switch.
Do not use detergents containing abrasive, acidic or corrosive substances
or abrasive cloths.
Regular maintenance guarantees proper operation and performance over time.
Special attention is to be paid to the metal anti-grease filters : frequent clean-
ing of the filters and their supports ensures that no flammable grease is accu-
mulated.
CLEANING OF EXTERNAL SURFACES
You are advised to clean the external surfaces of the hood at least once every
15 days to prevent oily substances and grease from sticking to them.
Alternatively and for all the other types of surfaces, it can be cleaned using a
damp cloth, slightly moistened with mild, liquid detergent or denatured alcohol.
Finish off cleaning by rinsing well and drying with soft cloths.
Do not use too much water next to the push button control pan-
el and lighting devices in order to prevent humidity from reach-
ing electronic parts.
The glass panels can only be cleaned with specific, non-corrosive or non-abra-
sive detergents using a soft cloth.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to comply with these in-
structions.
CLEANING OF INTERNAL SURFACES
It is forbidden to clean electrical parts, or parts related to the mo-
tor inside the hood, with liquids or solvents.
For the internal metal parts, see the previous paragraph.
METAL ANTI-GREASE FILTERS
It is advised to frequently wash the metal filters (at least once a month) leaving
them to soak in boiling water and washing up liquid for 1 hour, taking care not
to bend them.
Do not use corrosive, acid or alkaline detergents.
Rinse them well and wait for them to be completely dry before reassembling
them.
They are dishwasher safe.
To extract and insert the metal anti-grease filters see the picture.
