Using the extractor fan
The extraction system can be used in two versions: external
extraction and evacuation or as a filter with internal
recirculation.
Extraction version
Fig.7
The fumes are evacuated towards the outside through a
series of pipes (bought separately) fastened to the supplied
connecting flange.
The diameter of the exhaust pipe must be equivalent to the
diameter of the connecting ring:
- for rectangular outlets 222 x 89 mm
- for circular outlets Ø 150 mm (*)
For more information, see the page relative to the extraction
version in the illustrated part of this manual. Fig.7c
Connect the product to wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes
with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connecting flange).
Using wall-mounted exhaust pipes and holes with a smaller
diameter may reduce the efficiency of extraction and
drastically increase noise levels.
All responsibility in this regard is therefore denied.
Keep duct as short as possible.
Use ducting with the least possible number of curves
(maximum angle: 90°).
Avoid drastic changes in the ducting diameter.
Filtration version
Fig. 8
The extracted air will be filtered in special grease filters and
odour filters before being sent back into the room.
The product is supplied with all parts necessary for standard
installation, with the air outlet positioned in the front part of the
cabinet plinth.
The product is equipped with four filter packs that trap odours
thanks to the activated carbons.
The activated carbons are integrated into a non-woven fabric
matrix, making them easily and completely accessible to
impurities, thus creating a high absorption surface.
For more information, see the page relative to the filtration
version (in the illustrated part of this manual).

installations.
3. Installation
The electrical and mechanical installation and gas
connection must be carried out by specialised personnel.
The electrical appliance is designed to be built-in to a 2-6 cm
thick worktop in the case of TOP installations; 2.5-6 cm in the
case of FLUSH installations.
The minimum distance between the hob and the wall must be
at least 5 cm from the rear part, at least 40 cm from the side
walls and at least 50 cm from the wall units above.
This product is a class 3 recessed appliance.

3.1 Electrical connection
Fig. 3
-The installation must be performed by
professionally qualified personnel familiar
with the applicable installation and safety
standards ● The manufacturer declines
all responsibility to persons, animals or
property if the guidelines provided in this
handbook are not followed. ● The power
cable must be long enough to allow
removal of the hob from the worktop ●
Make sure that the voltage on the rating
plate on the bottom of the device
corresponds to that of the house where it
will be installed. ● Do not use extension
cords. ● Earthing is required by law ●
The earth power cable must be 2cm
longer than the other cables ● At no
point along the length of the cable must it
reach a temperature of 50° C above the
room temperature. ● The device is
intended to be permanently connected to
the electrical network, therefore, make
the connection to the fixed network via a
standard omnipolar switch, which
assures the complete disconnection of
the mains under category III over-voltage
conditions, and which is readily
accessible after the installation.
