SAFETY INFORMATION

For your safety and correct operation of the appliance, read this manual carefully before installation and use. Always keep these instructions with the appliance even if you move or sell it. Users must fully know the operation and safety features of the appliance.
  The wire connection has to be done by specialized technician.

• 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).

• If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be respected.

• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the inside of the hood.

• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.

• For Class I appliances, check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.

• Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120 mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.

• Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

• Do not connect the extractor hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.).

• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, 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.

• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced from the manufacturer or its service agent.

• Connect the plug to a socket complying with current regulations, located in an accessible place.

• With regards to the technical and safety measures to be adopted for fume discharging it is important to closely follow the regulations provided by the local authorities.
  WARNING: Before installing the Hood, remove the protective films.

• Use only screws and small parts supplied with the hood.
  WARNING: Failure to install the screws or fixing device in accordance with these instructions may result in electrical hazards.

• Do not look directly at the light through optical devices (binoculars, magnifying glasses…).

• Do not flambè under the range hood; risk of fire.

INSTALLATION

Wall drilling and bracket fixing

Wall marking:

• Draw a vertical line on the supporting wall up to the ceiling, or as high as practical, at the centre of the area in which the hood will be installed.
• Draw a horizontal line at 650 mm above the hob for installation without the back panel, or at height H (height of the visible part of the panel) for installation with the back panel.
• Place bracket 7.2.1 on the wall as shown about 1-2 mm from the ceiling or upper limit aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical reference line.
• Mark the wall at the centres of the holes in the bracket.
• Place bracket 7.2.1 on the wall as shown at X mm below the first bracket (X = height of the upper chimney section supplied), aligning the centre (notch) with the vertical line.
• Mark the wall at the centres of the holes in the bracket.
• Mark a reference point on the horizontal reference line as indicated, 110 mm from the vertical reference line and 209 mm above the horizontal reference line.
• Repeat this operation on the other side.
• Drill ø 8 mm holes at all the centre points marked.
• Insert the wall plugs 11 in the holes.
• Fix the brackets using the 12a (4,2 x 44,4) screws supplied.
• Insert the two screws 12a (4,2 x 44,4) supplied in the hood body fixing holes, leaving a gap of 5-6 mm between the wall and the head of the screw.

REAR PANEL (OPTIONAL)
The Rear Panel must be fitted before fixing the hood body and, for both upper and lower position fixing, must be fitted at the correct height prior to installing the bases. As this operation is rather complex, it should be carried out either by the kitchen installer or a qualified person who knows the final dimensions of the units.
For the upper fixing position, proceed as follows:

• Rest the back panel on the base, inserting the lower plate between the upper surface and the wall, centring it on the vertical reference line.
• Mark the centres of the two holes in the upper plate.
• Drill ø 8 mm holes at all the centre points marked.
• Insert the wall plugs 11 in the holes.
• Fix the brackets using the 12a screws supplied.
• Fix the back panel (where present) using the 12a screws supplied.

Mounting the hood body

• Hook the hood body onto the screws 12a.
• Fully tighten the support screws 12a.

Connections
DUCTED VERSION AIR EXHAUST SYSTEM
When installing the ducted version, connect the hood to the chimney using either a flexible or rigid pipe ø 150 or 125 mm, the choice of which is left to the installer.

• To install a ø 125 mm air exhaust connection, insert the reducer flange 9 on the hood body air outlet and the adapting ring ø120-125 10a on the reducer flange.
• Fix the pipe in position using sufficient pipe clamps (not supplied).
• Remove any activated charcoal filters.

Exhausted mode Recommendations and suggestions
Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 125 mm.
The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
Ideal ducting distance to discharge outlet is maximum of 3 meters straight run, or 2 meters and one 90 degree bend preferably rigid duct.

Maximum ducting distance should be 3 meters, with one 90 degree bend.
For each additional 90 degree bend, the maximum distance is reduced by 1 meter.
If the ducting is not correct it will increase noise and reduce performance.
RECIRCULATION VERSION AIR OUTLET

• Push fit the air outlet fitting 15 onto the air outlet of the hood body.
• Ensure that the activated charcoal filters have been inserted.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

• Connect the hood to the mains through a two-pole switch having a contact gap of at least 3 mm.
• Remove the grease filters (see paragraph Maintenance) being sure that the connector of the feeding cable is correctly inserted in the socket placed on the side of the fan.

Fix the Utensil Rail

• Position the Utensil rail on the front part of the hood.
• Fix using the Utensil rail to the hood using the Screws 16.
• Insert the plugs 18.

Flue assembly
Upper exhaust flue

• Slightly widen the two sides of the upper flue and hook them behind the brackets 7.2.1, making sure that they are well seated.
• Secure the sides to the brackets using the 4 screws 12c (2,9 x 9,5) supplied.

Lower exhaust flue

• Slightly widen the two sides of the flue and hook them between the upper flue and the wall, making sure that they are well seated.
• Fix the lower part laterally to the hood body using the 2 screws 12c (2,9 x 9,5) supplied.
• On the recirculation version, fit the directional grids 8a – 8b in their housings making sure that the directional symbols are towards the top and front of the hood. Also make sure that they are correctly inserted in the connection extension pieces 14.1.

USE

1. Low speed, used for a continuous and silent air change in the presence of light cooking vapour.
2. Medium speed, suitable for most operating conditions given the optimum treated air flow/noise level ratio.
3. Maximum speed, used for eliminating the highest cooking vapour emission, including long periods.
