• The manufacturer rejects all
responsibilities for any damage caused
by improper use or wrong settings.

• Appropriate maintenance and cleaning
ensure the good working order and
the best performance of the appliance.
Regularly clean all stubborn surface dirt
to avoid grease build up. Remove and
clean or change the fi lter regularly.

• Never fl ame cook food (fl ambé) under
the appliance. Using free fl ames might
cause fi re.

• Failure to observe the instructions for
cleaning the hood and replacing the
fi lters may result in a fi re.

• Exhaust air must not be vented through
a fl ue used for removal of fumes
produced by gas combustion appliances
or other combustible materials, but must
have a separate outlet. All national
regulations governing extraction of
fumes must be observed.

• There shall be adequate ventilation if
the hood is being used at the same time
as other appliances using gas or other
combustible materials. The negative
pressure of the room must not exceed 4
Pa (4x 10-5 bars). For this reason ensure
that the room is well ventilated.

hot when used with cooking appliances.

Installation and connection

After unpacking the appliance, check for
any transport damage. In the event of
problems, contact the After-sales Service.
To prevent any damage, only remove
the appliance from its polystyrene foam
packaging at the time of installation.

Preparing for installation

WARNING: this is a heavy product; the

hood should only be lifted and
installed by two or more people.
Before installation also check the minimum
distances stated in the manual of the cooker.
If the installation instructions for the cooker
specify a greater distance between cooker
and hood, this distance must be observed.

Electrical connection

Make sure the power voltage specifi ed on
the appliance rating plate is the same as
the mains voltage.
This information can be found on the inside
of the hood, under the grease fi lter.
Power cable replacement (type H05
VV-F) must be carried out by a qualifi ed
electrician. Contact an authorized service
centre.
If the hood is fi tted with an electric plug,
connect the plug to a socket complying with
current regulations, located in an accessible
place.
If no plug is fi tted (direct wiring to the
mains), or if the socket is not located in an
accessible place, a qualifi ed electrician
should install a standardised double pole
power switch that will enable complete
isolation from the mains in case of category
III overvoltage conditions, in accordance
with wiring rules.

Use

The hood has been designed to be installed
and used either as a “Exhausted model”, or
as a “Recirculation model”.
