INSTRUCTIONS BOOKLET

WARNINGS

This instruction booklet must be kept together with the appliance for future

reference. If the appliance is sold or consigned to other parties, check that the booklet is supplied with it, to ensure that the new user has the correct information on the operation of the range hood and is aware of the warnings. These warnings have been provided for the your safety and the safety of others. As a result, please read them carefully before installing and operating the appliance.

This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely. Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance. The appliance must be installed by qualified personnel, in accordance with national and local safety the standards in force. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be re-placed by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. Any modifications that may be required to the electrical system for the installation of the range hood must only be made by qualified electricians. It is dangerous to modify or attempt to modify the characteristics of this system. In the event of malfunctions or if repairs are required to the appliance, do not attempt to solve the problems directly. Repairs performed by unqualified persons may cause damage. For all repair and other work on the appliance, contact an authorised service/spare parts centre. Always check that all the electrical parts (lights, exhaust device), are off when the appliance is not being used. Read the entire instruction booklet before performing any operations on the range hood. The manufacturer can not be held responsible for unauthorized work. Ensure that power to the appliance is OFF while installation or repair work is performed. Verify that the voltage, load and circuit rating information found on the data plate (located behind the grease filter), match the household electrical supply before installing the hood.

The range hood must only be used for the exhaust of cooking fumes in home kitchens. The manufacturer disclaims all liability for any other use of the appliance. The maximum weight of any object placed above the hood, or hung to it (if possible) must not exceed 1,5 kilos. After installing the stainless steel hood, clean it in order to remove any residue of the protective glue, and stains of grease or oil. The manufacturer recommends its cleaning cloth available for purchase. The manufacturer accepts no liability in case of damage caused by the use of different detergent types.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The technical data pertaining to the electric appliance The technical specifications of the appliance are shown on the rating plates located inside the range hood.

INSTALLATION

(Section reserved for qualified installers of the range hood)

Minimum distance: distance between the main top of the cooking appliance and the bottom-most section of the hood. When the hood is positioned above a gas appliance this minimum distance must be at least 65 cm (25,6“) (see fig. C) or more importantly, check the distances specified for the gas cooking appliance. In the outside exhaust version, the diameter of the entire duct run must be no smaller than the range hood connection. In the horizontal duct run, the duct must slope slightly (around 10%) upwards, so as to better ventilate the air outside of the room. Avoid using angled pipes/elbows where possible. To optimize performance, keep the duct run as straight and short as possible. Galvanized metal ducting is recommended. Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere. If a boiler, stove, fireplace, etc. that uses gas or other fuels is being used at the same time, make sure the room where the fumes are extracted is well ventilated, in compliance with the current regulations. Mounting instruction: see section “O” of the booklet.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

(Section reserved for qualified installers)

WARNING! Before doing any work inside the range hood, disconnect the appliance from the mains power supply. Check that the wires inside the range hood are not disconnected or cut; if this is the case, contact your nearest service centre. The electrical connections must be performed by qualified personnel.

The connections must be performed in compliance with the legal standards in force. Check that the receptacle and wiring are able to support the load of the appliance (see the technical specifications in point B). THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED. Important: The hood comes equipped with a 5 ft(1.5 m) power cord with a NEMA 5-15 molded plug for connection to a 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 15 A power outlet. This outlet must be located in the duct cover area above the hood. Some types of appliance are supplied with a cable without plug; in this case, “standardised” or a junction box must be used, keeping in mind that:

- the yellow/green wire must be used for the earth,

- the blue/white wire must be used for the neutral,

- the brown/black wire must be used for the phase; the cable must not come

into contact with hot parts (over 75°C).

- fit a plug that is suitable for the load to the power cable, and connect it to a suitable power outlet.

If local codes permit, the power cord may be removed and the hood may be connected to a hard wired electrical connection. If there is any question concerning the electrical connection of this appliance to your power supply, please consult a licensed electrician.

For appliances that come supplied with cable and plug please ensure they are plugged into a circuit suitable for this appliance. Please refer to a qualifed person. (See technical specifications in point B).

The manufacturer declines all liability if the safety standards are not observed.

RANGE HOOD WITH OUTSIDE DISCHARGE (exhaust)

In this application, the fumes and steam from the kitchen are vented outside through an exhaust duct. The exhaust conveyor that protrudes from the upper part of the range hood must be connected to a duct that carries the fumes and steam outside. In this application, the charcoal filters, if fitted, should be removed; to do this, see the instructions in point F. There must be adequate ventilation of the room when the range hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels, according to the standard.

Deviation for Germany: When the range hood and appliances supplied with energy other than electricity are simultaneously in operation, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 4 Pa (4x10 E-5 bar).

RECIRCULATING RANGE HOOD (with filter)

In this application, the air passes through charcoal filters for purification, and is then recirculated back into the kitchen. Check that the charcoal filters are fitted to the motor, and if not, install them as described in the instructions in point H. If the hood is of filtering type, remove the non-return valve fitted at the motor’s outlet.

For maximum efficiency, the third speed should be used when there are strong

odours or a lot of steam, the second speed in normal conditions, and the first speed for keeping the air clean with minimum energy consumption. The range hood should be switched on when starting to cook, and left on until the odours disappear.
