Before installing the hood

1. For the most efficient air flow exhaust, use a straight run

or as few elbows as possible.

CAUTION: Vent unit to outside of building, only.

2. At least two people are necessary for installation. Wear

gloves to protect against sharp edges.

3. Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most

types of walls/ceilings, consult a Qualified Installer, check if they perfectly fit with your cabinet/wall.

4. Do not use flex ducting.

5. COLD WEATHER installations should have an additional

backdraft damper installed to minimize backward cold air flow and a nonmetallic thermal break to minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the ductwork. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal break.

The break should be as close as possible to where the

ducting enters the heated portion of the house.

6. Make up air: Local building codes may require the use of

Make-Up Air Systems when using Ducted Ventilation Systems greater than specified CFM of air movement.

All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined.

Venting methods

The hood is supplied in the Ductless (Recirculating) version and is used without an extracted fumes discharger conduit . Fumes and steam are recycled through the F deflector. If you intend using the product in the Ducting version, it is necessary to have an evacuation conduit going from the upper B exit to the extraction hole towards the exterior. In this case a connection ring has to be installed on the B extraction hole and the carbon filter removed. A Ducting version kit is available (as an accessory).

NOTE: For ductless (Recirculating) version only: purchase the Ductless Recirculating Kit.

Preparation

Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be constructed.

Fittings material is provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling.

Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance within the ceiling or wall for exhaust vent.

Hood installation height above cooktop is the users preference. The lower the hood is above the cooktop, the more efficient the capturing of cooking odors, grease and smoke.

CAUTION: FOR GAS RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS AT 30" (76,2 CM)

ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE. FOR ELECTRIC RANGES INSTALLATION: MOUNT THIS HOOD SO THAT THE BOTTOM EDGE IS NOT LESS THAN 24" (61 CM) AND NOT MORE THAT 30" (76,2 CM) ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE. HOUSEHOLD USE. PLEASE, READ INSTALLATION MANUAL FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATION. Check your ceiling height and the hood height maximum before you select your hood.
