RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
The Instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accord-
ingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your
specific appliance.
INSTALLATION
• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incor-
rect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood
is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the
paragraphs on working dimensions and installation).
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate
fixed to the inside of the hood.
• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees ade-
quate earthing.
Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter
120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes
(boilers, fireplaces, etc.).
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas
burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the
room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have
an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the
entry of clean air.
USE
• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to elimi-
nate kitchen smells.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has ben designed.
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only, making
sure that it does not engulf the sides.
• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can
burst into flames.
• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk of fire
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

ance.
