INSTRUCTION ON MOUNTING AND USE
Check also the drawings on the initial pages with the alphabetical
and numerical references in the explanatory text.
Closely follow the instructions in this manual. We cannot
accept liability for any faults, detriment or fire damage to the
appliance due to non-compliance with the manual's
instructions. Installation and electrical connections must be
executed by a qualified technician. You should affix the hood
to a wall of sufficient weight-bearing capacity, so not to one
made of plasterboard. Do not install it inside a cupboard.
Attach it to the wall using the anchors provided: Fig. 3 diameter
12, Fig. 5 diameter 8.
Installation
The cooker hood must be placed at a minimum distance of 65
cm from the cooking plane for electric cookers and 75cm for
gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater
distance, this has to be taken into account.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface
mounting only. Do not fix chimney flue to furniture or fly over
shelves unless the chimney flue can be easily removed, in
case maintenance is ever required.
Use
The cooker hood is provided with an upper air exit B for
discharging fumes externally for models including chimney
flue C ( Suction Version A- exhaust pipe not supplied).
If cooking fumes and vapours cannot be externally discharged,
the cooker hood can be used in the recirculating version
F: the installation of 1 active charcoal filter F allows the
recirculation of fumes and vapours through the upper grid G.
Electrical connection
Make sure that there is a power socket near the hood and
that the system has a 30 mA differential. The mains voltage
must be the same as that on the label inside the hood. The
hood has a 1250 mm power cable with or without plug: if it
does have a plug, connect the hood to an accessible
approved socket; or if it does not (connection direct to the
mains), fit an approved bipolar switch with a minimum
contact opening of no less than 3 mm (accessible). This
installation and electrical connection must be executed by a
qualified technician.

F
D: Increase extraction speed (power) key: press this touch
sensor to increase the extraction speed of the hood.
E: Timer key: irrespective of the extraction speed selected,
touching the key will activate the timer function for 5 minutes
(during this phase a dot will flash on and off on the display). To
reset the timer operate the E motor key.
F: Filters reset key: touching this key will reset the metal
anti-grease filter (1) saturation and carbon filter replacement (2)
warning.
(1)
After the hood has been operating for 40 hours, the
"FG"or"G" symbol on the display will begin to
flash, indicating the need to clean the metal anti-
grease filters.
(2)
After the hood has been operating for 120 hours,
the "FC"or"C" symbol on the display will begin to
flash, indicating the need to clean the active carbon
filters.
Sensor function: Touching keys ‚C' and ‚D' simultaneously
will activate the sensor. In this mode the extraction speed will
set itself automatically causing keys C and D to flash
intermittently. Operate key 'C' or 'D' to resume manual operation.
Maintenance
Prior to any maintenance operation ensure that the cooker hood
is disconnected from the electrical outlet.
Cleaning:
The hood must be cleaned frequently both inside (apart from
the area behind the grease filter) and outside. Use a cloth
moistened with denatured alcohol or neutral liquid detergents.
Never use products containing abrasives.
Warning: Failure to carry out the basic standards of the cleaning
of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire
risks. Therefore we recommend observing these instructions.
Anti-grease Filter – must be cleaned once a month, with non
abrasive detergents, by hand or in dishwasher on low temperature
and short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
Charcoal Filter - (only for filter version):
The active charcoal filters F are not washable nor regenerative.
It should be changed every 6 months in normal use.
The active charcoal filters capture unpleasant cooking odours.
Replacing lightbulbs
Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are cooled
down.
Extract the lamp cover by levering it off with a small screwdriver
or similar tool.
Replace the damaged light bulb. Only use halogen bulbs of 20W
max (G4), making sure you do not touch them with your hands.
Close the lamp cover (it will snap shut).
