INSTALLATION, OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR COOKER HOOD

MOD. EDGE 230-240 Vac - 50 Hz

Exhausting cooker hood. The equipment is constructed in accordance with European Standards and with the requirements included in the following
Directives: 2006/95EC ( Low Voltage Directive), 2004/108 (Electromagnetic Compatibility).

WARNINGS

The present instruction manual is an integral part of the appliance itself,
therefore it must be carefully kept and ALWAYS accompany it, even in
case  of  its  assignment  to  another  owner  or  user  or  in  case  the  cooker
hood is moved to another installation plant.
Make sure that the voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) indicated on the data
plate  inside  the  unit  match  those  available  at  the  installation  site.  Any
eventual  adjustment  to  the  electrical  system,  which  may  be  necessary
to  install  the  cooker  hood,  must  be  carried  out  only  by  competent
people.
Any repair carried out by no competent people may cause damages.
For  any  repair  or  needed  technical  action  make  reference  to  a
Technical  Assistance  Center,  which  is  authorized  to  carry  out  the
replacement of the spare parts. Always make sure that all the electrical
parts  (lights,  exhaustion  unit)  are  disconnected  when  the  appliance  is
not  in  use.  By  storms  take  off  the  main  switch  of  the  house  electrical
system.
The  using  of  the  cooker  hood  must  not  be  other  than  the  use  of
exhausting units for cooking damps on domestic kitchens.
The manufacturer  does not accept any liability for  damages caused  by
people,  animals  or  things,  by  installation  and  maintenance  mistakes  or
by any illegitimate use.

We  remind  that  the  use  of  products  functioning  with  electrical  energy
implies the observance of some essential security rules, as follows:



This equipment is not intended for people (children included)

with  reduced  mental  or  motor  capacities,  with  lack  of
experience  or  knowledge,  unless  they  are  supervised  or
unless  a  person  responsible  for  their  security,  gives  them
instructions  regarding  the  use  of  the  equipment.  Children
must be supervised in order to be sure that they do not play
with the equipment.



Any cleaning action is forbidden if the appliance hasn’t been

disconnected from the main power supply and if the main
switch of the house electrical system is not off. If cleaning is
not carried out according to these instructions, a fire may
break out.



Do not pull, take off or twist the cable coming out from the

appliance, even though this has been disconnected from the
main power supply.



Do not sprinkle or throw any water directly on the appliance.



Do not stick any sharp tool inside the exhausting holes and

into the air discharge.



Do not take out the filters in order to reach the internal sides

of the appliance in case the main switch of the house
electrical system is not off.



Do not singe or flambé directly underneath the cooker hood.

Take particular care when frying to ensure that the oil does
not catch fire.



CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when used

with cooking appliances.

USE

This cooker hood can be employed as

exhausting

filtering

Exhausting

(external evacuation). Kitchen smokes are driven outside

through  a  flue  (not  provided  with  the  hood)  joined  to  the  exhaust  pipe
flue  connector.  This  pipe  must  not  under  any  circumstances  be
connected to cooker, boiler or burner exhaust pipes, etc.
The use of pipes and holes on the wall with a smaller diameter than the
output  of  the  motor  will  cause  a  decrease  in  suction  performance  and
an increased of the noise level.
Use as short as possible tubes and with few curves.
Use pipes with smooth internal surfaces.

Filtering

(inside recycling). The fumes pass through activated carbon

filters (supplied with the hood) to be purified and recycled into the
kitchen.

INSTALLATION

Read  the  instruction  manual  before  installing  and/or  using  the  hood.
The  minimum  distance  between  the  supporting  surface  of  the  cooking
hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65cm
with  a  gas  hob.  If  the  mounting  instructions  of  the  gas  hob  indicate  a
wider distance, respect it.
The

unit must not be mounted above cookers fitted with top

radiant plate.

For proper operation it is recommended to install the product at a
distance of 200

– 210 cm from the floor.

Respect all the air discharge regulations.

The air must not be discharged in a pipe used to discharge exhaust
fumes produced by

gas-fed equipments or fuel-fed equipments (this

does not apply to filtering hoods).

The room must be adequately ventilated when the hoods is used
together with other gas or fuel equipments.
For an easy access, it is advisable to move possible furniture under the
installation area.

Installation of the hood

The  hood  is  equipped  with  all  the  necessary  fastenings  for  its
installation,  which  are  suitable  for  most  surfaces.  Verify  that  the
installation surface is strong.
Installation  must  be  carried  out  by  qualified  installers  according  to
present regulations.

EXHAUSTING:
The hood can be installed in two different ways:



Fixed with the motor directly on the ceiling (possible only when
the distance between the ceiling and the false ceiling is between
200 and 270mm). Follow the visual instructions

Fig.

1-2-3-4-5-6.



Fixed with the motor directly on the false ceiling. Follow the
visual instructions

Fig.

7-8.

FILTERING:
Assemble the box combining the four inox walls and fixing them
manually folding the inox tabs.

Fig. 9

Fix the box to the hood with the provided screws.

Fig. 10

Adjust the height of the two mounting brackets at 162mm.

Fig. 11

Install the hood to the ceiling following the visual instructions

Fig. 12-

13-14-15

The motor can also be positioned away from the hood at a distance not
longer than 7m. In this case the hood can only be used in the
exhausting version. If the motor is installed on the wall it is prohibited to
have the air outlet on the side.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This equipment must be connected to a grounding plant.
Two types of electrical connection can be used:

1.  Using  a  standard  plug  to  be  connected  to  the  power  cable
and inserted in a mains socket which must be accessible (so that
the  plug  can  be  disconnected  when  servicing  is  carried  out).
Make  sure  that  the  plug  is  accessible  also  after  the  complete
installation of the equipment.
2.  By  means  of  a  fixed  mains  connection,  fitting  a  bipolar
switch,  which  ensures  the  disconnection,  with  an  opening
distance  of  the  contacts  allowing  a  complete  disconnection  on
the  conditions  of  the  overvoltage  III  category,  according  to
installation  regulations.  The  ground  connection  (yellow-green
wire) must not be interrupted.

Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage and frequency

ratings.

If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or by its service agent or a qualified person in order to avoid any risk.

OPERATION

The hood is supplied with a multispeed motor.
The hood should be run at low speed under normal conditions and at
higher speeds only when there is a heavy build-up of fumes or odours.
Ideally, the hood should be switched on as soon as cooking is started
and then kept on until all odours have been eliminated.

Remote Control Functions

On-Off motor

On-Off Light

Increase fan speed

Reduce fan speed

When  turned  on,  the  engine  is  positioned  at  the  second  speed.  The
motor  speed  is  indicated  by  the  lighting  of  the  respective  green  LED
(ref. pos. 1-2-3-4). At the  fourth speed (intensive,  ref. pos. 4), the  LED
flashes  and  after  5  minutes  the  motor  returns  to  the  third  speed
automatically.
