Use
The hood is designed to be used either for exhausting or filter
version.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of
fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not
provided).
Attention!
If the hood is supplied with carbon filter, then it must be
removed.
Filter version
Should it not be possible to discharge cooking fumes and
vapour to the outside, the hood can be used in the filter version, fitting an activated carbon filter and the deflector F
on the support (bracket) G, fumes and vapours are recycled
through the top grille H by means of an exhaust pipe
connected to the top air outlet B and the connection ring
mounted on the deflector F (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing
clamps not provided).
Attention!
If the hood is not supplied with carbon filter, then it must
be ordered and mounted.
The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting
mode, and must be connected to an external suction device
(not supplied).
Installation
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the
cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range
hood must be not less than 50cm from electric cookers and
65cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a
greater distance, this must be adhered to.
6
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating
indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with
a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current
regulations and positioned in an accessible area. If it not fitted
with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not
located in an accessible area apply a bi-polar switch in
accordance with standards which assures the complete
disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to overcurrent category III, in accordance with installation
instructions.
Warning: Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains
supply and checking the efficient function, always check that
the mains cable is correctly assembled.
Mounting
The hood is supplied in two versions: model for installation to
the wall and model for installation to the ceiling.
Before beginning installation:
• Check that the product purchased is of a suitable size for
the chosen installation area.
• To facilitate installation, remove the fat filters and the
other parts allowed and described here, dismantle and
mount it.
To remove see also the relative paragraphs.
• Remove the active carbon (*) filter/s if supplied (see also
relative paragraph). This/these is/are to be mounted only
if you want lo use the hood in the filtering version.
• Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other
supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with
screws (*), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing
them and keeping them.
• If possible, disconnect and move freestanding or slide-in
range from cabinet opening to provide easier access to
rear wall/ceiling. Otherwise put a thick, protective
covering over countertop, cooktop or range to protect
from damage and debris. Select a flat surface for
assembling the unit. Cover that surface with a protective
covering and place all canopy hood parts and hardware
in it.
• Disconnect the hood during electrical connection, by
turning the home mains switch off.
• In addition check whether near the installation area of the
hood (in the area accessible also with the hood mounted)
an electric socket is available and it is possible to
connect a fumes discharge device to the outside (only
suction version).
• Carry out all the masonry work necessary (e.g.
installation of an electric socket and/or a hole for the
passage of the discharge tube).
Expansion wall plugs are 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. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take
the weight of the hood. Do not tile, grout or silicone this
appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.
Installation ceiling model (Island)
Fig. 5-6
1. Adjust extension of the hood support structure, as the
final height of the hood depends on this.
Note: In some cases the upper section of the lattice is
fixed to the lower section with one or more screws,
eventually check and remove them temporarily to allow
the adjustment of the support structure.
2. Fix the two sections of the structure with a total of 16
screws (four per corner).
Apply one or two brackets to the upper section for
extensions greater than the minimum (on the basis of
that envisaged supplied) to reinforce it.
Note: For transport reasons 1 bracket may already be
fixed to the trellis with 2 screws in a temporary manner, it
is therefore possible to either shift it to the required
position, or definitively secure its fixture with 6 additional
screws.
Proceed as follows for this purpose:
a. Slightly widen the fixing brackets so that they can be
applied to the exterior of the structure.
b. Position the reinforcement bracket immediately above
the fixing point of the two sections of the structure and fix
with a total of 8 screws (2 per corner).
If supplied, fix the second reinforcement bracket in a
position equidistant between the first reinforcement
bracket and the upper side of the lattice, fix with 8 screws
(2 per corner).
Note: in positioning and fixing the reinforcement
bracket/s check that these do not prevent fixing the
discharge tube (suction version) or the baffle (filtering
version) easily.
3. Apply the perforation diagram vertically over the cooking
top to the ceiling (the centre of the diagram should
correspond to the centre of the cooking top and the sides
should be parallel to the sides of the cooking top – the
side of the diagram with the word FRONT corresponds to
the control panel). Make the electrical connection.
4. Drill as shown (6 holes for 6 wall plugs – 4 plugs for
fixture), screw the outer screws leaving a space of about
1 cm. between the screw head and the ceiling.
5. Put a discharge tube inside the lattice and connect it to
the joining ring of the motor compartment (discharge tube
and fixing clamp not supplied). The discharge tube must
be sufficiently long to reach the outside (suction version)
or deflector F (Filter version).
6. Only for the filter version: mount deflector F onto the
lattice and fix it with 4 screws to the apposite bracket.
Finally, connect the discharge tube to the connecting ring
on the deflector.
7. Apply two nuts to the right and left sides of the lattice
(upper part) in the square slots. They will serve to tighten
the fixing screws of the upper flue.
8. Attach the lattice to the ceiling with the 4 screws (see
operation 4).
9. Screw the 4 screws up decisively.
10. Put 2 more screws in the holes for fixing the safety
elements remaining free and screw them up decisively.
7
11. Connect the electricity to the mains. The mains must be
turned on only after installation has been concluded.
12. Put the upper flue (the one with the slots) onto the lattice
and fix it to the lattice near the ceiling with 2 screws (one
per side). Then put the lower flue onto the lattice and fix
the lower flue to the upper flue temporarily with 1 screw.
Check the hold of the two flues.
Note: In order to permit the temporary fixture it will be
necessary to insert the lower shaft to cover the top one,
right to the end of the run,
overtaking the screw that fixes the upper shaft to the
bracket in the vicinity of the ceiling.
13. Put 2 clips onto the sides of the fixing points between the
lattice and the hood.
14. Attach the hood to the lattice. Check the perfect
attachment - screw 4 screws partially up to attach the
hood to the lattice.
ATTENTION! The side of the lattice with the connection
box corresponds to the side of the control panel once the
hood is mounted.
15. Fix the hood to the lattice with two screws. They will also
serve to center the two parts.
16. Screw the 4 screws that fix the lattice to the hood up
decisively.
17. Carry out the electrical connection of the command
instrument board and the lamps.
18. Holding the lower flue carefully, remove the temporary
fixing screws between the upper and lower flues (see
installation phase 12) and bring the lower flue flush over
the hood (put the flue into its seat).
19. Turn the mains on again, acting on the central electrical
panel and check the correct functioning of the hood.

a. Rest the suction unit on a flat surface and thread the
lower part of the hood onto it.
b. Make all the electrical connections between the two
parts.
c. Fix the hood definitively to the suction unit with the
number and type of screws indicated in the figure.
1. Using a pencil, draw a line on the wall, extending up to
the ceiling, to mark the centre. This will facilitate
installation.
2. Rest the drilling template against the wall: the vertical
centre line printed on the drilling template must
correspond to the centre line drawn on the wall, and the
bottom edge of the drilling template must correspond to
the bottom edge of the hood.
3. Place the lower support bracket on the perforation
diagram making it coincide with the traced triangle, mark
the two external holes and perforate. Remove the
perforation diagram, insert two wall-dowels and fix the
support bracket of the hood with two 5x45 mm screws.
4. Hang the hood onto the lower bracket.
5. Adjust the distance of the hood from the wall.
6. Adjust the horizontal position of the hood.
7. Using a pencil mark the cooker hood permanent drill hole
inside the suction group.
8. Remove the hood from the lower bracket.
9. Drill at the point marked (Ø8mm).
10. Insert 1 wall screw anchor.
11. Apply the flues support bracket G to the wall adherent to
the ceiling, use the flues support bracket as a perforation
diagram (if present, the small slot on the support must
coincide with the line drawn previously on the wall) and
mark two holes with a pencil. Make the holes (Ø8mm),
and insert 2 dowels.
12. Fix the chimney support bracket to the wall using two
5x45mm screws.
13. Hook the hood onto the bottom bracket.
14. Fix the hood into its final position on the wall
(ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL).
15. Connect a pipe (pipe and pipe clamps not provided, to be
purchased separately) for discharge of fumes to the
connection ring located over the suction motor unit.
If the hood is to be used in ducting version, the other end
of the pipe must be connected to a device expelling the
fumes to the outside. If the hood is to be used in filter
version, then fix the deflector F to the chimney support
bracket G and connect the other extremity of the pipe to
the connection ring placed on the deflector F.
16. Connect the electricity.
17. Apply the chimney stacks and fasten them at the top to the chimney support G (17b) using 2 screws (17a)
18. Slide the bottom section of the chimney down until it
completely covers the suction unit and slots into the
housing provided on top of the hood.
Remount the carbon filter frame and the fat/s filter/s and check
the perfect functioning of the hood.

Maintenance
ATTENTION! Before performing any maintenance operation,
isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at
the connector and removing the connector fuse.
Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and
socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket.
Cleaning
The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the
same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the
fat filters) internally and externally. Clean using the cloth
dampened with neutral liquid detergent. Do not use abrasive
products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!WARNING:
Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the
cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire
risks.
Therefore, we recommend oserving these instructions.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to
the motor or any fire damage linked to inappropriate
maintenance or failure to observe the above safety
recommendations.
Grease filter
This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter
saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in
possession – indicates this necessity) using non aggressive
detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must
be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolour
slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.
Fig. 2
Charcoal filter (filter version only)
It absorbs unpleasant odours caused by cooking.
The charcoal filter can be washed once every two months (or
when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on
the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using hot
water and a suitable detergent, or in a dishwasher at 65°C (if
the dishwasher is used, select the full cycle function and leave
dishes out).
Eliminate excess water without damaging the filter, then
remove the mattress located inside the plastic frame and put it
in the oven for 10 minutes at 100° C to dry completely.
Replace the mattress every 3 years and when the cloth is
damaged.
Remove the filter holder frame by turning the knobs (g) 90°
that affix the chimney to the cooker hood.
Insert the pad (i) of activated carbon into the frame (h) and fit
the whole back into its housing (j).
Fig. 3
It is possible to use a traditional carbon filter, neither
washable nor regenerable, to be replaced every 3 - 4 months.
The filter holder frame of the carbon filter is welded together;
the eventual frame supplied with the hood is not, therefore, to
be used.
Insert it into its housing and fix it turning the 2 plastic knobs.
Replacing lamps
Disconnect the hood from the electricity.
Warning! Prior to touching the light bulbs ensure they are
cooled down.
Fig. 4
1. Unscrew the lamp cover.
2. Remove the damaged light and replace with a new 12
Volt, 20 Watt (Maximum) halogen light made for a G-4
base SUITABLE FOR USE IN OPEN LUMINAIRES.
Follow package directions and do not touch new light
with bare hands.
3. Refit the lamp cover.
If the lights do not work, make sure that the lamps are fitted
properly into their housings before you call for technical
assistance.
