RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

The instructions for use apply to several versions of this appliance. You may

therefore find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

INSTALLATION

• The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage or injury as a result of incorrect installation or improper use.

• The minimum safety distance between the hob and the

extractor hood is 650 mm (some models can be installed at a lower height, please refer to the section regarding working dimensions and installation).

• Make sure that the mains voltage corresponds to the

one indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.

• For Class I appliances, make sure that the household

electrical system is suitably earthed. Connect the extractor to the flue using a pipe having a minimum diameter of 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.

• Do not connect the extractor hood to flues that carry combustion fumes (e.g. from

boilers, chimneys etc.).

• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas

appliances), the room must be sufficiently ventilated in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gases. The kitchen must have a ventilation opening communicating directly with the external air in order to guarantee the inflow of clean air. If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gases.

• In the event of damage to the power cable, it must be

replaced by the manufacturer or by the technical support department in order to avoid any risks.

• If the installation instructions for the gas hob specify a greater distance compared

to the one indicated, this has to be taken into account. Comply with the current regulations on air discharge into the atmosphere.

• Only use screws and fittings that are suitable for the hood.

Warning: failure to install the screws or fixing devices according to these instructions may result in electrical shock hazards.

• Connect the hood to the mains power supply via a two-pole switch that has a

contact gap of at least 3 mm.

• Do not mount directly on plasterboard; always make sure there is a

reinforcement (support) for securing the mounting brackets. For versions with threaded rods, make sure that they are installed correctly.

USE

• The extractor hood has been designed exclusively for domestic use to eliminate

kitchen smells.

• Never use the hood for purposes other than for which it has been designed.

• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.

• Regulate the intensity of the flame so that it is directed only onto the bottom of the

pan, making sure that it does not engulf the sides.

• Deep fat fryers must be continuously monitored

during use: overheated oil can burst into flames.

• Do not flambé under the hood as this could cause a fire.

• This appliance can be used by

children aged from 8 years and above and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or who lack experience and knowledge as long as they are supervised or instructed on how to use the appliance safely and understand the hazards involved. Make sure that children do not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.

• CAUTION: Accessible parts may become hot when the cooking appliances are

used.
