The manufacturer shall not be onsidered responsible for any injury or damage caused by improper installation or use.
-
The minimum safety distance between the hob and the suction hood is 650 mm (some models may be fitted at a lower height; please see the paragraph relating to working dimensions and installation).
-
If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a distance greater than the one indicated, this must be taken into account.

Do not connect the ducting hood to flues that also carry combustion fumes (e.g. boilers, chimneys, etc.).
-
If the hood is used in combination with non electric appliances (e.g. gas appliances), a sufficient level of ventilation must be guaranteed in the room to prevent any exhaust backflow. If the kitchen hood is used in combination with appliances that are not electrically powered, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0.04 mbar to avoid any risk of the fumes being sucked back into the room by the hood.
-
The air must not be extracted through a flue that is also used as an exhaust flue for fumes from gas or other fuel powered combustion devices.

As regards the technical and safety measures to be taken for exhausting of fumes, it is important that the regulations set by local authorities be complied with scrupulously.
CAUTION: remove the protective films before installing the hood. -
Only use screws and hardware of a sort suitable for the hood.
CAUTION: failure to install the screws or fixing devices as described in these instructions may mean there is a risk of electric shocks. -
