Safety warnings

for user

• Always cover lighted elements, to prevent excess heat from
damaging the appliance. In the case of oil, gas and coal fired
cookers it is essential to avoid open flames.

• Also, when frying, keep the deep frying pan on the cooker top/
cooker under careful control.

• The hot oil in the frying pan might ignite due to overheating.

• The risk of self-ignition increases when the oil being used is dirty .

• It is extremely important to note that overheating can cause a fire.

• Never carry out any flambé cooking under the hood.

• Always disconnect the unit from the power supply before

carrying out any work on the hood, including replacing the
light bulb (take the cartridge fuse out of the fuse holder or switch

off the automatic circuit breaker).

• It is very important to clean the hood and replace the filter at
the recommended intervals. Failure to do so could cause
grease deposits to build up, causing a fire hazard.

for kitchen unit installer

• When used as an extractor unit, the hood must be fitted with a
120mm diameter hose.

• When installing the hood, make sure you respect the following
minimum distance from the top edge of the cooking hob/ring
surfaces:
electric cookers 600 mm
gas cookers 650 mm
coal and oil cookers 700 mm min.

• The national decree on fuel-burning systems specifies a maximum
depression of 0.04 bar in such rooms.

• The air outlet must not be connected to chimney flues or combus­tion gas ducts. The air outlet must under no circumstances be
connected to ventilation ducts for rooms in which fuel-burning
appliances are installed.

• It is advisable to apply for authorization from the relevant controlling
authority when connecting the outlet to an unused chimney flue or
combustion gas duct.
The air outlet installation must comply with the regulations laid
down by the relevant authorities.

• When the unit is used in its extractor version, a sufficiently large
ventilation hole must be provided, with dimensions that are
approximately the same as the outlet hole.

• National and regional building regulations impose a number of
restrictions on using hoods and fuel-burning appliances connected
to a chimney , such as coal or oil room-heaters and gas fires, in the
same room.

• Hoods can only be used safely with appliances connected to a
chimney if the room and/or flat (air/environment combination) is
ventilated from outside using a suitable ventilation hole approxi­mately 500-600 cm2 large to avoid the possibility of a depression
being created during operation of the hood.

• If you have any doubts, contact the relevant controlling authority or
building inspector’s office.

• Since the rule for rooms with fuel burning appliances is “outlet hole
of the same size as the ventilation hole”, a hole of 500-600 cm2,
which is to say a larger hole, could reduce the performance of the
extractor hood.

• If the hood is used in its filtering function, it will operate simply and
safely in the above conditions without the need for any of the
aforementioned measures.

• When the hood is used in its extractor function, the following rules
must be followed to obtain optimal operation:

— short and straight outlet hose
— keep bends in outlet hose to a minimum
— never install the hoses with an acute angle, they must

always follow a gentle curve only
— keep the hose as large as possible (preferably the same
diameter as the outlet hole).

• Failure to observe these basic rules will drastically reduce the
performance and increase the noise levels of the extractor hood.
