transport damage. In case of problems, contact the
dealer or the After-Sales Service. To avoid any
damage, it is advisable to remove the appliance
from the polystyrene base only before installation.

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

excessively heavy product; the hood must be
handled and installed by two or more people.

The distance between the support surface of
containers on the cooking device and any
components placed above the worktop must be at
least 50 cm for electric cookers and 65 cm for gas
or combi cookers.
This is to prevent any hindrance in the up
(opening) and down (closing) travel of the
extraction panel, and to facilitate access to the
hood controls on the panel.

IMPORTANT: Position the metal box containing
the electronic components at a distance of not less
than 65 cm from the gas hob or in any case 65 cm
from the hood suction point.

IMPORTANT: Install the metal box containing the
electronic components at least 10 cm from the
floor.

IMPORTANT: A built-in oven CANNOT be
installed under the hob due to the presence of the
hood extraction unit.
Before installation, check the distances given in the
hob manual.

If the cooking device installation instructions specify
a greater distance, this must be taken into account.

CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY

Make sure the voltage specified on the product
dataplate matches the mains voltage. It is located
inside the hood and visible on removing the grease
filter.
Power cable replacement (type H05 VV-F) must
only be carried out by qualified personnel. Contact
an authorised service centre.
If provided with a plug, connect the appliance to a
socket complying with current regulations and
located in an accessible place. If there is no plug
(direct connection to the mains), or if the plug is
not in an accessible place, fit a suitable double-pole
switch that ensures complete disconnection from
the mains in category III overvoltage conditions, in
conformity with installation rules.
