WARNINGS FOR THE INSTALLER

TECHNICAL SAFETY

Before installing the hood, check the in-

tegrity and function of each part. Should 

anomalies be noted, do not proceed with instal-

lation and contact the Dealer.

Do NOT install the hood if an aesthetic (or cos-

metic) defect has been detected. Put it back into 

its original package and contact the dealer.
No claim can be made for aesthetic (or cosmetic) 

defects once it has been installed.

During installation, always use personal protective 

equipment (e.g.: Safety shoes) and adopt prudent 

and proper conduct.
The installation kit (screws and plugs) supplied with 

the hood is only to be used on masonry walls: in case 

of installation on walls of a different material, assess 

other installation options keeping in mind the type 

of wall surface and the weight of the hood (indicated 

on page 2).
Keep in mind that installations with different types of 

fastening systems from those supplied, or which are 

not compliant, can cause electrical and mechanical 

seal danger.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose 

it to atmospheric elements (rain, wind, etc.).

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

The electrical system to which the hood is 

to be connected must be in accordance 

with local standards and supplied with 

earthed connection in compliance with safety 

regulations in the country of use. It must also 

comply with European standards regarding radio 

antistatic properties. 

Before installing the hood, check that the electrical 

mains power supply corresponds with what is report-

ed on the identification plate located inside the hood.

The socket used to connect the installed equipment 

to the electrical power supply must be within reach: 

otherwise, install a mains switch to disconnect the 

hood when required.

Any changes to the electrical system must be carried 

out by a qualified electrician. 

The maximum length of the flue fastening screws 

(supplied by the manufacturer) must be 13 mm. Use 

of non-compliant screws with these instructions can 

lead to danger of an electrical nature.

Do not try to solve the problem yourself in the event 

of equipment malfunction, but contact the Dealer or 

an authorised Servicing Department for repairs.

When installing the hood, disconnect 

the equipment by removing the plug or 

switching off the main switch.

FUMES DISCHARGE SAFETY

Do no connect the equipment to discharge 

pipes of fumes produced from combustion 

(for example boilers, fireplaces, etc.).

Before installing the hood, ensure that all standards in 

force regarding discharge of air out of the room have 

been complied with.
