Fixing the hood to the lower part of the wall cabinet

Position fastening template 

A

 to the bottom of the cabinet 

(Fig.1) taking into account the minimum distance from the hob.

- Fasten the 4 screws 

C,

 without screwing them in all the way.

- Position the hood under the cabinet and push it all the way 

against the wall, screw in/tighten the 4 screws 

C

.

- Adjust spacer 

L 

from screws

 P 

(fig.2) so that the back of the 

appliance is against the cabinet. 

• 

Extraction through an outside wall

The appliance expels the fumes through an outside wall or a 

duct.  It is necessary to buy a telescopic pipe in accordance 

with the standards in use (inflammable)  and connect it to 

flange 

B

 (Fig 3).

• 

Recirculation

To transform the cooker hood from the extraction version 

to the re circulating one ask your supplier for an activated 

carbon filter.  

The filter must be fitted to the extracting group cooker hood 

in the centre of the fan grille by twisting it by 90 degrees until 

it is gripped securely (Fig 6).  For this operation remove the 

anti-grease filter(s) 

G

 (Fig 5).  The clean air is returned into the 

room through a connecting tube passing inside the cupboard 

and connected to the ring 

B

 (fig 4).

USE AND MAINTENANCE

•  

We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before 

any food is cooked. We also recommend that the appliance is 

left running for 15 minutes after the food is cooked, in order 

to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air.

The effective performance of the cooker hood depends on 

constant maintenance; the anti-grease filter and the active 

carbon filter both require special attention.

•  The anti-grease filter

 is responsible retaining the grease 

particles suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging 

with variable frequency according to the use of the appliance.

-  To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2 

months one must wash the anti-grease filters by hand using 

non-abrasive neutral liquid detergents or in the dishwasher at 

low temperatures and on short cycles.

-  After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does 

not give the right to claim their replacement.

•  The active carbon filters

 are used to purify the air that is 

sent back into the room and its function s to mitigate the 

unpleasant odours produced by cooking.

-  The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced 

at least every 4 months. The saturation of the active charcoal 

depends on the more or less prolonged use of the appliance, 

on the type of kitchen and on the frequency with which anti-

grease filter is cleaned.

-  Regenerable active charcoal filters must be washed by hand, 

with non abrasive neutral detergents, or in the dishwasher at 

a maximum temperature of 65°C (the washing cycle must be 

complete without dishware). Remove excess water without 

damaging the filter, remove the plastic parts, and let the mat 

dry in the oven for at least 15 minutes approximately at a 

maximum temperature of 100°C. To keep the regenerable 

charcoal filter functioning efficient this operation must be 

repeated every 2 months. These must be replaced at least 

every 3 years or when the mat is damaged.

•  Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the rege

-

nerable active charcoal filters it is important that they are 

completely dry.

•  

Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally, 

using a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral 

liquid detergents that are 

non

 abrasive.

•  

The lighting .system is designed for use during cooking 

and not for the prolonged general lighting of the room. The 

prolonged use of the lighting system significantly decreases 

the average duration of the bulbs.

•  Attention:

 The non compliance with the hood cleaning 

warnings and with the replacement and cleaning of the filters 

entails risk of fires. One therefore recommends keeping to the 

suggested instructions.

• Commands:

 (Fig.7)

the key symbols are explained below:

This hood is fitted with a 

microswitch

 which allows the 

activation of the motor speed) through the opening of the 

telescopic undercarriage. If the telescopic undercarriage is 

closed the motor speeds cannot be activated. 

This microswitch does not have an impact on the activation of 

the lights which must be switched on through the appropriate 

switch (see fig.7A).

Warning! 

If the telescopic undercarriage is closed with 

the speed set at 2,, once it is re-opened, the hood will be 

reactivated with the same speed in use when the hood was 

closed.

•  Replacing the halogen/incandescent lamps (Fig.8A):

Only use lamps of the same type and wattage installed on

 the device.

•  Replacing LED lamps (Fig.8B):

If the appliance version is with LED lamps, the intervention of 

a specialised technician is necessary to replace them.
