GENERAL INFORMATION SAFETY WARNINGS
GENERAL INFORMATION
This canopy hood is designed to be fi xed
to any rigid vertical surface, over a gas or
electric hotplate and can be used either in
EN
the extraction mode (ducted to the outside) or in the recircu-lation mode (internal
recycling). All cookers hood perform better
when used in evacuation mode. During
winter time it may be convenient to use the
hood in the recycling mode to avoid heat
loss from the kitchen.
Before starting the installation, consideration should be given to the diffi cul-
ties to be found during installation. The
installation work must be undertaken
by a qualifi ed and competent person in
conformity to the rules concerning the
evacuation of contaminated air.
The manufacturer disclaims all liability
for any damage or injury caused as a result of not following the instructions for
installation contained in the following
text.
1 - SAFETY WARNINGS
1.1- When used in the extraction mode,
the cooker hood ducting must not
be connected to a fl ue which is
used for exhausting fumes from
appliances supplied with energy
other than electric, such as a central heating fl ue or water heating
fl ue.
1.2- Before connecting to the mains
supply ensure that the mains
voltage corresponds with the voltage on the rating plate inside the
hood.
1.3- Connect the cooker hood to the
mains via a bipolar switch which
has 3mm clearance between the
contacts.
1.4- For cooker hoods featuring an
earth cable, make sure the electric
plant of your house is correctly
earthed.
1.5- Appliance in class II are provided
with a double insulation; therefore do not connect then through
earthed plugs but through simple
bipolar plugs.
1.6- When installed, the hood must be
positioned at least 65cm above the
hotplate.
1.7- Never do fl ambé cooking under
this cooker hood.
1.8- Never leave frying pans unattended during use as overheated
fat and oil may catch fi re.
1.9- Before carrying out any kind of
maintenance or cleaning, disconnect the hood from the mains supply.
1.10-If the room where the cooker hood
is to be used contains a fuel burning appliance such as a central
heating boiler then this must be of
the room sealed or balanced fl ue
type. If other types of fl ue or appli-
ance are fi tted, ensure that there
is an adequate supply of air into
the room. When the cooker hood
is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other
than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed
0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being
drawn back into the room by the
cooker hood.
1.11-The appliance must be positioned
so that the plug is accessible.
1.12-If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by a special
cord or assembly available from
the manufacturer or its service
agent.

evacuation, open the grille panel and
make sure that the conversion lever or
the change-over knob on the centrifugal
unit is in the DUCTING position. The
charcoal fi lter is not required.
For ducting to the outside, the hood is
supplied with a rear and top outlet. A
fl ange spigot of 100 mm diameter (120
mm in certain models) is usually fi tted
on the top outlet and a blanking plug on
the rear outlet. If you choose to duct the
hood from the rear of the casing, you
should invert the position of the fl ange
and of the blanking plug. Pay attention
to the safety regulation 1.1.
b - Internal recirculation mode
To check that the hood is set up for
recycling, open the grille panel and
make sure that the conversion lever or
the change-over knob on the centrifugal
unit is in the RECYCLING position. The
charcoal fi lter is to be fi tted. To fi t the
charcoal fi lter, support the fi lter with one
hand and turn the thumb screw through
the centre of the charcoal fi lter. If the
fi lter is of the interlocking type, turn the
fi lter clockwise. The hood can remain
connected to the outside.

MAINTENANCE
4 - MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Regular maintenance and cleaning will
ensure good performance and reliability, while extending the working-life of
the hood. Special attention should be
reserved to the grease fi lter and to the
charcoal fi lter (recycling mode).
4.1 - Grease fi lter
This retains the solid grease particles
and can be supplied in different types.
lt is fi tted onto the reverse side of the
metal grille panel. Maintenance of the
grease fi lter varies according to the
used type.
a-Whatever type of fi lters used, the fi lter
is easily removed from the grille by
pushing the metal wire clips to one
side and removing.
b-Thin synthetic fi lter (1 mm thick). It
should not be washed and should be
replaced every two months. If the fi lter
is provided with a saturation indicator,
replace when:
b.1-The violet colour of the dots, which
are visible through the metal grille, is
spread over the whole surface of the
fi lter.
b.2-The red colour of the stripes, which
is not visible through the metal grille
when the fi lter is clean, becomes
visible from the outside of the metal
grille.
c-Multi-layer metal fi lter. It should be
washed once a month in hot water
using mild detergent or liquid soap.
It can be washed in a dish-washer. It
should not be bent and should be left
to drain dry.
WARNING: An excess of grease in the
fi lter not only would affect the performance of the hood, but it is also a possible fi re risk. We strongly recommend
therefore to clean and replace fi lters
in accordance with the manufacturer
instructions.
4.2 - Cleaning Metal selfsupporting Grease Filters
• The fi lters are washable and must be
cleaned at least every 2 months of
operation, or more
frequently for particularly heavy usage.
• Remove the fi lters one at a time by
pushing them towards the back of the
group and pulling down at the same
time.
• Wash the fi lters, taking care not to
bend them. Allow them to dry before
refi tting.
• When refi tting the fi lters, make sure
that the handle is visible on the outside.
4.3 - Charcoal fi lter
The charcoal fi lter is a chemical fi lter to
be used only when the hood is in the
recycling position. To replace the charcoal fi lter, open the grille and remove the
thumb screw through the centre of the
charcoal fi lter. If the fi lter is of the inter-
locking type, turn the fi lter anticlockwise.
Replace by reversing the operation.
For a good performance replace the
charcoal fi lter on average every three
months.
4.4 - Worktop illumination
If a lamp fails to function at any time,
open the metal grille panel and check
that the lamp is fully screwed into the
holder. When changing the lamp, an
identical replacement must be fi tted to
ensure a safe working of the hood.
4.5 - Cleaning
The metal work should be cleaned
regularly, at least once a month, using
mild household cleaner and
polish. Never use abrasives. For all operations from point 4.1 to point 4.4 and in
particular for point 4.3,
