check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the
hood is to be fixed.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:
- Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions
of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the
ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare
the air exhaust opening.
- Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue
(Fig.3).
- Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.3) in such a
way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance
from the ceiling indicated in Fig.2.
- Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connec-
tion pipe (Fig.4).
- Insert the upper flue into the lower flue.
- Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws B provided
(Fig.4), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with
the screws B (Fig.3).
- To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering
version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the
installation instructions.
• Filter hood:
Please note:
In order to transform the hood from EXTRACTOR HOOD
into FILTER HOOD the carbon filters must be ordered at your
distributor as accessory.
- To replace the extractable active carbon filters X, pull lever
outwards as shown in Fig.6.
- There are two types of charcoal filters: regenerable (washable)
(Fig.7) and non-regenerable (Fig.6).

USE AND MAINTENANCE

• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before
any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is
left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order
to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.
The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on
constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active
carbon filter both require special attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease
particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clog-
ging with variable frequency according to the use of the
appliance.
- To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2
months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using
non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher
at low temperatures and on short cycles.
- After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does
not give the right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is
sent back into the room and its function s to mitigate the
unpleasant odours produced by cooking.
- The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced
at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal
depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance,
on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-
grease filter is cleaned.
- Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand,
with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at
a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be
complete without dishware). Remove excess water without
damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat
dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a

maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable
charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be
repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least
every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regen-
erable active charcoal filters it is important that they are
completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally,
using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral
liquid detergents that are non abrasive.
• The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking
and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The
prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases
the average duration of the bulbs.
• Attention: The non compliance with the hood cleaning
warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters
entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the
suggested instructions.
• Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.8):
To replace the halogen light bulbs B, remove the glass panel
C using a lever action on the relevant cracks.
Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.
Caution: Do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.
• Commands (Fig.9):
The key symbols are explained below:
A = LIGHT
B = OFF
C = SPEED I
D = SPEED II
E = SPEED III
F = AUTOMATIC STOP TIMER - 15 minutes (*)
• If your appliance does not have the INTENSIVE speed func-
tion, press key E for two seconds and it will be activated for 10
minutes after which it will return to the previously set speed.
When the function is active the LED flashes. To interrupt it
before the 10 minutes have expired press key E again.
• Clean Air:
By pressing key F for two seconds (with the hood switched
off ) the "clean air" function is activated.
This function switches the appliance on for ten minutes every
hour at the first speed.
As soon as this function is activated the motor starts up at the
first speed for ten minutes.
During this time key F and key C must flash at the same time.
After ten minutes the motor switches off and the LED of key
F remains switched on with a fixed light until the motor starts
up again at the first speed after fifty minutes and keys F and
C start to flash again for ten minutes and so on.
By pressing any key for the exclusion of the hood light the
hood will return immediately to its normal functioning (e.g.
if key D is pressed the "clean air" function is deactivated and
the motor moves to the 2nd speed straight away.
By pressing key B the function is deactivated).
(*) The "AUTOMATIC STOP TIMER" delays stopping of the
hood, which will continue functioning for 15 minutes at the
operating speed set at the time this function is activated.
• Anti-grease and active carbon filters saturation:
- After 30 hours of work, the key A flashes every 2 sec.; in that
event, the anti-grease and active carbon filter must be cleaned,
if present.
- After 120 hours of work, the key A flashes every 0.5 sec.; in
- 16 -
