RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
INSTALLATION
• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting
from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the
extractor hood is 650 mm.
• 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 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 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 eliminate 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.
• The hood should not be used by children or persons not instructed
in its correct use.
MAINTENANCE
• Switch off or unplug the appliance from the mains supply before
carrying out any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace the Filters after the specified time period.
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.
