Use
The hood may be used in 2 ways:
External exhausting system
The air is expelled outside by means of
a pipe to be connected to the coupling
flange
A
(fig. 2).
Connecting the exhausting pipe
The coupling ring
A
has a diameter of
120mm.
We suggest to use Ø 120 mm exhausting
pipe.
Recycling version (filtering)
The air is purified by means of a carbon filter
and then returned to the room.
The active carbon filter can be ordered from
the supplier.
To install the filter, proceed as follow:
a. Remove the pull-out drawer completely.
b. Press the side handles (
F
) towards the
opposite side and remove the filters.
c. Fit the filter into its seat
B
and fix with the
two hooks
C
(fig. 3).
The filtered air is discharged above the top
cabinet.
The baffle plate
D
(fig. 2) can be fitted to the
outlet hole using the screws supplied.
Installation
The minimum distance between the
supporting surface for the cooking vessels
on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 43cm from
electric cookers and 65cm from gas or
mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas
hob specify a greater distance, this must be
adhered to.
Warning!
The hood cannot be connected to flues of
other appliances that run on energy
sources other than electricity.
When the hood is used at the same time
of other appliances that run on energy
sources other than electricity, provision
must be made for an adequate supply of
air.
No food must be cooked flambé
underneath the hood.
The use of an unprotected flame is
dangerous for the filters and could cause
fires.
Therefore, never use an open flame under
the hood. When frying foods, never leave
the pan alone because the cooking oil
could flare up.
Please, keep to the provisions of official
directives regarding the question of fume
discharge.
The manufacturers refuse to accept any
responsibility for damage to the hood or
its catching on fire because of failure to
observe the above instructions.
Suggestions for the installation and
use of the hood
The horizontal sections of the pipe must
be slanted slightly downwards (about
10%) to ensure the condensed vapour not
to come back on the motor of the hood.
The best performance of the unit is
obtained in the exhaust mode, therefore
in the limits of the possibilities it is advised
to use the external exhaust (suction) type.
The best performances are obtained with
short pipes (max. 4 m) and with few curves.
