use in order to reduce the environmental impact: Switch ON the
hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and kept it
running for few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the
speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapour and use
boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal
filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good odour reduction
efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a
good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the
ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize efficiency and
minimize noise.
Additional Installation Specifications:
Use only the fixing screws supplied with the product for installation
or, if not supplied, purchase the correct screws type.
Use the correct length for the screws which are identified in the
Installation Guide.
In case of doubt, consult an authorised service assistance centre
or similar qualified person.
WARNING!
Failure to install the screws or fixing device in
accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.
Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Ducting 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.
Attention
! 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.
In the horizontal runs the exhausting pipe must be slightly slanted
(about 10°) and directed upwards to vent the air easily from the
room to the outside.
Attention! 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 indispensible length.
!
Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow
angle: 90°).
!
Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.
!
Use a duct as smooth as possible inside.
!
The duct must be made of certified material.
Filter version
The aspirated air will be degreased and deodorised before
being fed back into the room.
In order to use the hood in this version, you have to install a
system of additional filtering based on activated charcoal.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral
suction unit.
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the
range hood must be not less than 30cm from electric cookers
and 30cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a
greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with
a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current
regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after
installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection)
or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after
installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with
standards which assures the complete disconnection of the
mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in
accordance with installation instructions.
Warning!
Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains
supply and checking the efficient function, always check that
the mains cable is correctly assembled.
The hood is provided with a special power cable ; if the cable
is damaged, request a new one from Technical Service.
Mounting
Very heavy product; hood handling and installation must
be carried out by at least two persons.
Expansion wall plugs are 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. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take
the weight of the hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this
appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
