a separation between the poles, and with means to disconnect completely under category III overvoltage conditions, it must be fitted with means to disconnect it from the mains in case of category III overvoltage conditions.

• Disconnection from the mains after installation should be accessible for the user. The power plug must be easily accessible or if not, there must be a disconnection switch in compliance with electrical installation regulations.

• Take special care when perforating walls or ceilings and ensure that there are no hidden electrical cables, pipes, metal beams, etc., as perforating them could cause great damage, short circuits or the transmission of noise and vibrations.

• IMPORTANT: Before connecting the appliance to the mains, make sure the current is first turned

off (differential or circuit breaker on the general electrical panel of the house).

• WARNING: Always disconnect power to the hood before cleaning or maintenance operations, either by unplugging it or disconnecting with the circuit breaker on the general electrical panel of the house. Never use steam or high pressure devices to clean the hood (electrical safety regulations), see section 8 on cleaning and maintenance

• The minimum distance between the surface of the cooktop and the lower edge of the hood must be 65

cm if the extractor hood is fitted over gas cooker. If the installation instructions of the gas cooker

indicates a greater distance, this must be followed.

• Hood and conduit installation must comply with regulations on ventilation of closed spaces. More specifically, the exhausted air must not be led through a conduit that is used for exhausting fumes from other appliances using gas or other fuels (central heating installations, etc.).

NB! When the hood is in operation “in suction” at the same time as a heating system that depends

on ambient air (gas, oil, coal boiler, chimney, etc.), take special care to avoid the hood abosrbing air needed for combustion, this could cause dangerous accumulations of carbon monoxide in the premises or home, which could be deadly. If the extractor hood is installed together with a combustion appliance such as a boiler, chimney or local heating, the manufacturers of these appliances must be contacted to ensure optimum and risk-free operation.

• Negative pressure in the premises must not exceed 0.04 mbar. This will allow the hood to operate in optimum conditions. To achieve this, it is necessary to have a permanent entry of fresh air to avoid air stagnation, it is recommended to have a ventilation grille for this purpose. Doors and windows are not enough.

• Electrical power supply must be stable and meet the electrical requirements of the appliance (see the nameplate of the appliance). If the power supply is unstable, with variations in voltage, current, surges and cuts, electrical storms, etc., the hood could malfunction and even be damaged, in which case repairs will not be covered by the guarantee. If any of these things happen, disconnect the hood and contact an electrician or your electrical company to solve the problem.

• Improper and unauthorised handling of the hood, as well as modifying, cutting or perforating the body, structure, motor or wiring of the hood are expressly forbidden. In case of any of the above, the guarantee will be automatically void and the manufacturer will not be held liable for any possible harm or damages.

• The hood is an electrical appliance for fume extraction and must not be used as a support for objects or utensils.
