indicated for cleaning the product and replacing/cleaning the
filters may result in the risk of fire. •It is strictly forbidden to
cook food on the flame under the product.• WARNING:
•When the hob is on, the accessible parts of the product may
become hot. •Do not connect the product to the electrical
power supply until the installation is complete. •The
regulations laid down by local authorities must be strictly
followed with regard to the technical and safety measures to
adopt for fume extraction. •The extracted air must not be
conveyed through the same ducts used to extract the fumes
generated by gas combustion or other types of combustion
products. •Do not use or leave the product without
appropriately installed lamps, as this may result in the risk of
electric shock. •The product must NEVER be used without
the grille correctly fitted. •The product must NEVER be used
as a support surface unless expressly indicated.
● Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors may
and
installation
adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning
gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to
back flow of combustion gases. These gases can
potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After
installation of a range hood or other cooking fume
extractor, the operation of flued gas appliances should be
tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of
combustion gases does not occur.
• To replace the lamp, only use the lamp indicated in the
maintenance/lighting system section of this manual. • Using
a naked flame may damage the filters and cause a fire
hazard, and must therefore be avoided under all
circumstances. • Extra care must be taken when frying to
prevent the oil from overheating and catching fire. • In case
of doubt, contact the authorised service centre or similar
qualified personnel.
•Use the fixing screws supplied with the product only if
