Recommendations  

and suggestions

•  The manufacturer will not be held 

liable for any damages resulting from 

incorrect or improper installation.

•  The minimum safety distance be-

tween the hood and heat source is 

650mm.

•  Check that the mains voltage corre-

sponds to that indicated on the rating 

plate fixed to the inside of the hood.

•  For Class I appliances, check that 

the domestic power supply guaran-

tees adequate 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 guaran-

teed 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. When the hood is used in 

conjunction with appliances supplied 

with energy other than electric, the 

negative pressure in the room must 

not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent 

fumes being drawn back into the 

room by the hood.

•  The air must not be discharged into 

a flue that is used for exhausting 

fumes from appliances burning gas 

or other fuels (not applicable to 

appliances that only discharge the air 

back into the room).

•  In the event of damage to the power 

cable, it must be replaced by the 

manufacturer or by an Award au-

thorised service centre, in order to 

prevent any risks.

•  If the instructions for installation for 

the gas hob specify a greater dis-

tance specified above, this has to 

be taken into account. Regulations 

concerning the discharge of air have 

to be fulfilled.

•  Use only screws and small parts in 

support of the hood. 

Warning: Failure to install the screws 

or fixing device in accordance with 

these instructions may result in elec-

trical hazards.

•  Connect the hood to the mains 

through a two-pole switch having a 

contact gap of at least 3 mm.

Use

•  The extractor hood has been designed 

exclusively for domestic use to eliminate 

kitchen smells.

•  Never use the hood for purposes other 

than for which it has been 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 can be used by children 

aged from 8 years and above and 

persons with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capabilities or lack of  

experience and knowledge if they have
