INSTALLATION
Notice before installation
Warning: consult local regulations regarding fumes outlets. Do not connect the hood to a
fume, ventilation or hot air duct. Confirm that room ventilation is appropriate with the local
authorities. Make sure the maximum air extraction flow rate for the appliances in the room
does not exceed 4 Pa (0.04 mbar). The room must have adequate ventilation if an extractor
hood is used simultaneously with appliances that run on gas or other fuels. The evacuated
air must be extracted through ducts that are used for evacuating fumes from appliances
that run on gas or other fuels. Regulations regarding air extraction must be complied with.
Use a rigid PVC pipe or an aluminium pipe with a min. Ø l50 mm to evacuate fumes outside.
The above restrictions do not apply to hoods with no fumes outlet to outside (recirculation
system with activated charcoal filter).
Install the hood in line with the instructions on the template. Install the hood in line with
the instructions on the template provided. For gas cooking appliances only: the minimum
distance to the hood must be at least 65 cm.
Connecting the hood to the grid
Warning: before connecting the hood: switch off the electricity supply and check that the
supplied voltage and frequency coincide with that indicated on the appliance nameplate.
If the extractor hood has a plug, connect it to a power socket in line with applicable
regulations, located in an accessible area.
If the hood does not have a plug, connect it directly to the electrical grid, protected by a
separator device accessible for disconnection, in line with local regulations.
