Systems Available
Venting Outdoors
The air is vented outdoors through a duct which must be
connected to the exhaust opening K (Fig. 5) by means of
the flange H. The diameter of the exhaust duct must be
exactly the same as that of the flange.
Air Recirculation
— The air is cleaned by means of charcoal filters and then
circulated back into the room.
— The use of a charcoal filter is necessary when the hood
cannot vented outdoors either because ducting is not
available or cannot be installed.
— The filtered air is returned from atop the cabinet through
a duct that passes through the cabinet itself.The
diameter of the duct must be the same as that of flange
GB
H (Fig. 5).
The deflector J can be fixed to the outlet hole using the
two screws provided
(Fig. 4).
T o fit or replace a carbon filter:
a. Request a charcoal filter from the retailer, specifying
the model and type of hood.
Caution! Some charcoal filters come covered with a
plastic film to protect their filtering properties. If this is the
case, remove the film before installing the filter.
b. Remove the pull-out drawer completely.
c. Remove the grease filters or the grates.
d. Place the activated carbon filter in position:
1) Version with one motor: insert the filter in its housing
over the plastic grill and rotate it until it locks in
position (Fig. 6).
2) Version with two motors: to assemble the filter,
insert it in its seating and fix it in position using the
clips L (Fig. 7)
e. Remove the grease filters or grills
To remove the carbon filter, follow the procedure
described in item 1) or 2), depending on the version) in
the reverse order.
Installation
When installed, the distance between the hood and burners
must be not less than 43 cm for electric burners or 65 cm
for gas or mixed-fuel burners.
Caution
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults.
Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls
or play with the appliance.
Do not use the cooker hood where the grill is not correctly
fixed! The suctioned air must not be conveyed in the same
channel used for fumes discharged by appliances powered
by other than electricity. The environment must always
be adequately aerated when the cooker hood and other
appliances powered by other than electricity are used at
the same time. Flambé cooking with a cooker hood is
prohibited. The use of a free flame is damaging to the filters
and may cause fire accidents, therefore free flame cooking
must be avoided. Frying of foods must be kept under close
control in order to avoid overheated oil catching fire. Carry
out fumes discharging in accordance with the regulations
in force by local laws for safety and technical restrictions.
The manufacturers refuse to accept any responsibility for
damage to the hood or its catching on fire because of failure
to observe the above instructions.
Electrical connection
The electrical tension must correspond to the tension noted
on the label placed inside the cooker hood. Connect the
electrical plug, where provided, to the an easily accessible
7

outlet in conformity with local standards in force.
Where an electrical plug is not provided (for direct
connection to electrical network) place a standards approved
bipolar switch with an aperture distance of not less than
3mm (accessible) from the contacts.
Mounting the Hood
The diameter of the ventilation duct must be the same as
the that of the flange mounted on the ventilation hole on the
hood.
To mount the hood proceed as follows:
— Position the drilling template inside the left cupboard
on the right hand side with the arrow point towards
the back on the cupboard (Fig. 8)
— Drill the holes marked on the template (Fig. 8)
— Repeat the procedure for the right hand cupboard
— If the sides of the cupboards are 18 mm thick, insert
4 spacers M on the sides of the hood (Fig. 9)
— Fix the hood to the cupboard using four screws N
(Fig. 9).
Adjusting the Pull-Out Drawer
The hood can be installed beneath cabinets with varying
depths. Adjustments for opening and closing the drawer
can be made based on your specific needs.
To adjust the drawer, remove the ventilation grates by
loosening the O screws and adjusting the P brackets. Then
retighten the O screws (Fig. 10).
Using the hood
The hood is provided with several speeds.
For the best performance, we recommend using the low
speeds in normal conditions and the high speeds when
strong odour and vapour concentrations are present.
We recommend starting the hood a few minutes before
cooking and keeping it running for at least 15 minutes until
all the odours have been eliminated.
Maintenance
Caution! Before performing any maintenance,
disconnect the hood from the electrical supply.
Grease Filter
The grease filter serves to trap grease particles by
suspending them.
1. Synthetic Filter (thickness: 10-15 mm): wash the
filter in warm water and a biodegradable detergent
once a month. Let dry without wringing. Replace after
the filter has been washed 5 or 6 times.
2. Thin Synthetic Filter (approximately 1 mm thick):
replace when the coloring from the top is visible on the
bottom part.
3. Thin Synthetic Filter (approximately 1 mm thick -
without saturation indicator) replace every two months.
4. Metal Filter: unlimited life; wash every month in
GB
warm soapy water, or, if possible, in the dishwasher
(60°C). Let dry before reinstalling it.
Removing the Grease Filters (for models wtih grease
filter support grates)
To remove the dirty grease filter, proceed as follows:
a. Remove the pull-out drawer completely and open the
ventilation grates that support the grease filters.
b. Remove the Q fasteners for the grease filter and
remove it (Fig. 11.1). If special metal filters have been
installed, press on the plastic springs R to unhook them
(Fig. 11.2).
c. When washing or replacing the grease filter, wash the
grate as well with warm soapy water.
d. Remount the new filter or the old one after it has dried
thoroughly.
Charcoal Filter
The charcoal filter serves to eliminate odours that form
during the cooking process. Under normal use conditions,
the filter should be replaced every 4 months. It can be
ordered from the retailer. The charcoal filter must never be
washed.
To remove the charcoal filter, proceed as follows:
a. Remove the pull-out drawer.
b. Remove the grease filters and open the light cover
support (or the greas filter support grate).

b. Open the light cover support or the back grease filter
support grate.
c. Always replace burnt-out lamps, according to what is
provided for your appliance, with olive-shaped max.
40 Watt (E 14) bulbs, or neon-lamp 14 Watt max., or
PL lamp 11 Watt (one PL lamp appliance) or PL 9 Watt
(two PL lamp appliance).
d. Close the light cover support or the back grease filter
support grate.
e. Before calling for customer service because the
lighting system does not work, make sure that the
lamps are screwed in tightly.
Cleaning
To clean the outside of the hood use a cloth moistened with
denatured alcohol or neutral liquid detergents. Never use
products containing abrasives.

and changing and cleaning the filters may cause fires.
Therefore, we recommend observing these instructions.
