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

and
installation
expressly indicated.
● Range hoods and other cooking fume extractors may
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
