Use
The hood is designed to be used for exhausting version.
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means
of a special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of
the hood.
CAUTION!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the
connection ring.
CAUTION!
If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be
removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter
equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller
dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a
drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.
!
Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow
angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
Installation
Specialised personnel must carry out both
the electrical and the mechanical installation.
Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud
must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.
Fittings material is 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.
Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within
the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.
Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference.
CAUTION:
FOR GAS RANGES
INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO
THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS AT 39" (99 CM)
ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION:
MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM
EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 30" (76,2 CM)
ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE.
HOUSEHOLD USE. PLEASE, READ
INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC
APPLICATION.
Check your ceiling height and the hood
height maximum before you select your
hood.
Consult last pages of this manual for installation instruction and
electrical connection steps.

CAUTION:
performed exclusively by qualified
installers.
FOR THE INSTALLER: responsibility for
installation of the hood, including verification
of the conformity of the assembly kit
eventually supplied with the product, rests

Below is a non-exhaustive list of instructions,
useful to the installer (who should use a
professional gypsum board installer) to
install the gypsum board:
− Use fireproof gypsum board panels
(type X fire rated gypsum board
complying
suitable for the operating conditions
in terms of temperature (at least
80°C) and humidity (at least 93%)
reached during application;
− the total weight of the gypsum
board should not exceed 4kg;
− fix the gypsum board to the hood
using the fixing points already
inserted in the extractor panel;
− to fix the gypsum board, use
suitable mechanical components
(not included in the assembly
kit).
