PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL 

RECOMMENDATIONS

WARNING!

• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or 

persons with restricted physical, sensory or mental 

abilities or without experience and knowledge of the 

appliance, unless they are under the supervision or 

instruction of a person responsible for their safety.

Children must be supervised so that they do not play with 

the appliance.

1.

Do not connect the appliance to the electrical power supply 

until installation is completed. Always disconnect the hood 

before cleaning or carrying out maintenance by unplugging it or 

switching off the power supply.

2.

Do not “flambé” food under the hood. Naked flames could 

cause a fire.

3.

Do not leave pans unattended when frying. Cooking oil can 

catch fire.

4.

Regular cleaning and maintenance is essential to correct 

functioning and good performance. Regularly remove dirt 

deposits. Regularly clean or replace filters. Never use flammable 

materials as hoses for extracted air.

5.

If the hood is used together with other appliances powered by 

gas or other fuels, ambient negative pressure must not exceed 
4 Pa  (4  x  10

-5

 bar). For this reason, make sure the room is 

adequately ventilated.

6.

Exhaust air must not be conveyed through the same flue used by 

the heating system or other appliances powered by gas or other 

fuels.

7.

The room must be adequately ventilated when the hood is used 

together with appliances powered by gas or other fuels.

8.

When replacing the bulbs, first ensure that they are cold.

9.

The discharge air must not be ducted to a flue used for removing 

fumes produced by appliances using gas or other fuels, but must 

have a separate outlet. 

All national regulations on air discharge must be observed.

10.

The hood is not a shelf, therefore do not overload or place 

objects on it.

11.

Do not use or leave the hood without its lamps correctly 

installed - risk of electric shock.

Note:

 always wear work gloves for all installation and maintenance 

operations.

Electrical connections

The mains power supply must correspond to the voltage indicated 

on the appliance rating plate located inside the hood. If  provided 

with a plug, connect the hood to a power socket complying with 

current regulations and located in an accessible area. If it does not 

have a plug (direct connection to the power supply) or if the socket is 

not in an accessible place, fit a suitable double-pole switch that 

ensures complete disconnection from the power supply in category 

III overvoltage conditions, complying with the installation rules.

WARNING: Before reconnecting the hood circuit to the 

power supply and checking correct operation, always make 

sure the power cable is correctly fitted and that it was NOT 

crushed in its housing during installation.

Cleaning the hood

 Failure to remove oil/grease (at least once a month) 

could result in fire.

Please read these instructions carefully and keep them for future 

reference, in order to ensure best use of your hood.
