INSTALLATION
● The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or
improper installation.
● The minimum safety distance between the cooker top and the extractor hood is 650
mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the paragraphs on
working dimensions and installation).
● Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate xed to
the inside of the hood.
● For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate
earthing.
● Connect the extractor to the exhaust ue through a pipe with the minimum diameter of
120 mm.
The route of the ue must be as short as possible.
● Do not connect the extractor hood to the exhaust ducts carrying combustion umes (boilers, replaces, etc.).
● If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufcient
degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backow of the exhaust gas. The kitchen
must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
● When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances running on energy other than electricity, the
negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by
the cooker hood.
● In the event of any damage to the power cable, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or the technical service
department, in order to prevent any risks.
