SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
INSTALLATION WARNINGS
TECHNICAL SAFETY
Installation operations are to be carried out by skilled and qualified installers in accordance with
the instructions in this booklet and in compliance with the regulations in force.
Before installing the hood, check the integrity and function of each part. Should anomalies be noted,
•
do not proceed with installation and contact the Dealer.
Do NOT install the hood if an aesthetic defect has been detected. Put it back into its original package
•
and contact the dealer. No claim can be made for aesthetic defects once the hood has been installed.
During installation, always use personal protective equipment (e.g. accident-prevention shoes) and adopt
•
prudent and proper conduct.
The fixing kit (screws, plugs, and brackets) supplied with the hood can only be used on masonry
•
walls: should it be necessary to install the hood onto walls in a different material, assess other fixing systems
keeping the wall resistance and weight of the hood in mind (indicated on page 2).
Keep in mind that installations with different types of fixing systems from those supplied, or which are not
•
compliant, can cause electrical and mechanical seal danger.
Do not modify the electrical, mechanical and functional structure of the equipment.
•
Do the install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to atmospheric agents (rain, wind, etc.).
•
After the stainless steel hood has been installed, it will need to be cleaned to remove any residues from the
•
protection adhesive as well as any grease and oil stains which, if not removed, can cause irreversible damage
to the hood surface. To do so the manufacturer recommends using the supplied moist wipes, which are also
available sold separately.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The electrical system to which the hood is to be connected must be according to standard and
compulsorily supplied with earthed connection in compliance with safety regulations in the coun-
try of use. It must also comply with European standards regarding radio antistatic properties.
Before installing the hood, check that the electrical mains power supply corresponds with what is reported
•
on the identification plate located inside the hood.
The socket used to connect the installed equipment to the electrical power supply must be within reach:
•
if this is not possible, install a mains switch in an accessible position in order to disconnect the hood when
required.
Any changes to the electrical system required to install the hood must be carried out by a qualified electri-
•
cian.
The maximum length of the flue fixing screws (supplied by the manufacturer) must be 10 mm. Use of
•
non-compliant screws with these instructions can lead to danger of an electrical nature.
It is dangerous to change, or try to change, the features of this equipment. Do not try to solve the problem
•
yourself in the event of equipment malfunction, but contact the Dealer or an authorised Servicing Depart-
ment for repairs.
When installing the hood, disconnect the equipment by removing the plug or switching off the main
•
switch.
FUMES DISCHARGE SAFETY
Do not connect the equipment to discharge pipes of fumes produced from combustion (for example
•
boilers, fireplaces, etc.)
Before installing the hood, ensure that all standards in force regarding discharge of air out of the room have
•
been complied with.
