clamps not provided).
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral
suction unit.
Installation
The hood is designed to be installed in a corner of the kitchen.
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the
range 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
greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated 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
installation. 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.
Mounting
Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most
types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must
verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of
wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take
the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this
appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Attention! We advise you to have this hood installed by a
qualified technical installer. It is, in fact, necessary to proceed
with installation with the maximum expertise. It is necessary to
have a professional type of level and a drill with a Ø8 mm
point for walls, a Ø3.5 mm point for metal and a screwdriver
with a crosshead point for installation.
Disconnect the hood, working on the main domestic panel
during the phases of connecting the electricity.
Remove the fats filter/s and the frame of the carbon filter.
1. Make 2 pairs of PERFECTLY HORIZONTAL lines with a
pencil on the right and left walls in the corner where you
want to mount the hood:
The first pair is the distance between the cooking top and
the hood and will also act as reference for the installation
of the corner brackets.
Attention! The corner brackets are to be installed if
you are not sure that the walls forming the corner are
perfectly perpendicular.
The second pair, 50mm higher than the first, indicates
the positioning of the lower side of the support structure
of the hood.
2. Place the support structure on the corner of the wall so
that its right and left sides are equidistant from the corner
of the wall (check in addition that the side with the series
of horizontal holes is turned upwards), mark and make
four external holes, insert 4 wall dowels and fix with 4
screws.
3. Fix the lower support bracket to the support structure with
4 screws.
4. Check that the corner of the kitchen where you want to
mount the hood has perfectly perpendicular right and left
walls, otherwise install the corner fairings:
Place the corner fairings on the right and left walls.
Note: the lower side of the corner fairings must coincide
with the lower pair of lines previously traced on the wall -
in addition both must coincide with the corner of the wall,
possibly forming a single and continuous frame, from the
right to the left side.
Mark and make 6 holes, insert 6 wall dowels and, with 6
screws and washers, fix the corner brackets to the wall.
5. Put flues support bracket „G" on the wall, adhering to the
ceiling so that its right and left sides are equidistant from
the corner of the wall, use the flues support bracket as a
perforating diagram and mark 4 holes with the pencil,
make the holes and insert 4 dowels.
Suction version/Filtering version: Fix the flues support
bracket to the wall with 4 screws.
Only filtering version: adjust the extension of deflector
F on the basis of the width of flues support bracket G, fix
the extensions with 2 screws and fix the deflector to the
flues support bracket with 4 screws.
6. Hook the hood onto the lower support bracket.
7. a.-b. Insert the lower part of the hood into the suction
unit.
c. Fix the lower part of the hood to the suction unit with 6
screws.
Attention! The hood is not yet definitively fixed to the
wall, every successive operation must therefore be
carried out with caution to avoid the hood unhooking from
the support bracket and causing damage to people or
things.
8. Carry out the electrical connections between the two
parts.
9. Adjust the distance of the hood from the wall and the
horizontal setting of the hood, using two adjustment
screws placed on the hooks of the hood.
If the corner brackets have been mounted (corner of
the kitchen NOT perfectly perpendicular): check that
the hood rests perfectly on the corner brackets.
If the corner brackets have not been mounted (corner
of the kitchen perfectly perpendicular):
a. Check that the lower part of the hood is perfectly
horizontal (if mounted correctly, this should coincide with
or be parallel to the lower horizontal line marked on the
wall (see montage operation 1).
b. Mark the two points (right and left) of definitive fixture
