Unpacking the hood
On some models components are packed inside the polystyrene protection pieces. Do not throw away the
box and packaging until installation is fully completed.
Non-return flaps
On certain models only, there is a metal-hinged non-return flap in the outlet spigot of the hood where the
ducting attaches. The purpose of this flap is to prevent wind/weather from blowing back through the ducting
and hood and back into the kitchen. However, some ducting incorporates integral non-return flaps, often in
the form of hinged flap/s where the ducting terminates at the outside wall vent. You do not need two non-
return flaps in the system, so if this is the case remove the non-return flap sited in the hood outlet spigot - it
simply lifts out.
Installation
Attention:
The appliance should be installed by a qualified electrician or competent person.
The hood consists of three parts (picture 1):
1.
Cooker hood body
2.
Telescopic chimney
3.
Black glass
If the hood is installed in filtering mode (rather than ducted out), the clean air will need to escape from the
hood through the holes (H) as indicated on picture 6. Make sure that these holes (H in picture 6) are free so
that the recycled air can escape.
The hood is supplied with all the necessary fastenings for its installation, which are suitable for most
surfaces. Please make sure the installation surface is strong enough.
4.
Draw and drill the wall as in Picture 2.
5.
Fix the screw anchors with the wall cupboard support on the wall (A).
6.
Fix the support of the telescopic chimney (B) with screw anchors (C).
7.
Put the screw anchors in the holes (D).
8.
Fix the hood to the wall cupboard support (see point 2). You need two people for this operation.
9.
Open the glass door and remove the filters. Block the equipment with two screws as in (E).
10. Place the telescopic chimney on the upper part of the hood and fix the support with screws as in (F).
Please note that there should be a 50mm gap between a hob and the Omaggio hood. This gap is not
required for installing the hood above a Britannia range cooker.
