If the fixed appliance is endowed with a supply
cord and a plug, the appliance has to be put in a
place where the plug can be reached easily.

* The use of materials which can burst into
flames should be avoided in close proximity
of the appliance. When frying, please pay
particular attention to fire risk due to oil
grease. Being highly inflammable, fried oil is
especially dangerous. Do not use uncovered
electric grills.

In order to avoid possible fire risk, all
instructions for grease filter cleaning and for
removing eventual grease deposits should be
strictly followed.

WARNINGS

* The appliance is not intended for use by

young children or infirm persons without
supervision. Young children should be
supervised to ensure they do not play with
the appliance.

* The cooking surface and the inferior part of
the cooker hood must be at a minimum
distance of 65 cm.

* The extracted air cannot be conveyed
through or into a duct used to let out
fumes from appliances fed by energy other
than electric power (eg centralized heating,
radiators, water heaters, etc).

* To evacuate the air outlet, please comply
with the pertaining rules given by competent
authorities.

* Provide the room with an adequate ventilation
when a cooker hood and appliances fed by
energy other than electric power (gas, oil, or coal
stoves, etc.) are used simultaneously. The cooker
hood, when evacuating the extracted air, could
generate a negative pressure in the room which
can’t exceed the limit of 0.04mbar, in order to
avoid the suck of exhausts deriving from the heat
source. Therefore the room should be provided
with air intakes to allow a constant flow of fresh
air.

* When performing the electrical connections on
the appliance, please make sure that the current
tap is provided with earth connection and that
voltage values correspond to those indicated on
the rating label placed inside the appliance itself.

* Before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operations, the appliance needs
to be removed from the electric grid. If the
appliance is not provided with a non separable
flexible cable and plug, or with another device
ensuring omni-polar disconnections from the grid,
with an opening distance between the contacts
of at least 3 mm, then such disconnecting
devices must be supplied within the fixed
installation.

USES

The appliance is already arranged both for
filtering and for suction performances.

* In its filtering version (Fig.1), the air and
fumes conveyed by the appliance are cleaned
both by a grease filter and by an active
charcoal filter, and put again into circulation
through the side vents of the chimney. For
this version an air deflector placed on the
superior part of the pipe and allowing air
recycling is necessary (Fig.1A).

* In its vented version (Fig.2), fumes are
directly conveyed outside, through an
evacuation duct connected with the superior
part of the wall or the ceiling. Both charcoal
filter and air deflector are not necessary in this
case.
