SAFETY PRECAUTION

1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depends on the air in the environment. The cooker hood removes the air from the environment which a burner or fireplace needs for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4×10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacuation. Before connecting the model to the electricity network review the data plate (positioned inside the appliance) to confirm that the voltage and power correspond to the network and the socket is suitable. If in doubt ask a qualified electrician.  If the power supply cable is damaged it must be replaced. This can be obtained direct from the manufacturer. This device must be connected to the supply network through either a plug fused 6A or hardwired to a 2 phase spur protected by 6A fuse.
2. Warning!
   In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.
   A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is operating.
   B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas during or straight after prolonged use of the lighting installation.
   C) Flambé cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood.
   D) Avoid free flame as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard.
   E) Do not leave food frying unattended as the overheated oil may become a fire hazard.
   F) Disconnect the electrical connection prior to any maintenance.
   G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
   H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
   I) There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the hood is used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels other than electric.
   L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance with the instructions.

This appliance conforms to the European Directive 2012/19/EU, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialized personnel.

• Wear protective gloves before proceeding with the installation.

• • Electric Connection:

  • The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary. The power point must be easily accessible after the installation of the appliance. If the appliance is equipped with power cord without plug, a suitably dimensioned omni polar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between contacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity supply in compliance with the load and current regulations.
  • The connection to the mains is carried out as follows: BROWN = L line BLUE = N neutral.

• If the hob is electric, gas, or induction, the minimum distance between the same and the lower part of the hood must be at least 65 cm. If a connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed outside the lower part (Fig.3).
  Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other appliances generated by other than an electrical source. Before proceeding with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig.1) so that the unit is easier to handle.
  

  • In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the hole for evacuation of the air.

• We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be reduced and its operation may become noisier.
  • If your appliance has been designed for use in habitations supplied with a centralized suction device perform the following operations:

  • The switch controls opening and closure of a valve using a thermos electrical device. By placing the switch in the ON position, after a minute, the valve opens rotating 90° allowing suction of the stale air. By placing the switch in the OFF position, the valve closes after 100 seconds.

• F ixing to the wall:
  Drill 3 holes to accommodate the bracket (Fig.2). Screw and tighten the bracket onto the wall with the screws & screw plugs provided. Lift the cooker hood up and hang it onto the wall bracket hook (Fig.2).
  
  Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units. When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws B (Fig.3).
  
  For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.).
  If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, check that they are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.

• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:
  Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig.5).
  
  Then fix it to the wall using the screws A (Fig.5) in such a way that it is in line with your hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling.
  Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.6).
  
  Insert the upper flue into the lower flue and rest above the frame. Extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with the screws or hang the flue by matching both side blocks (Fig.7). To transform the hood from a ducting version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and follow the installation instructions.
  

• Filtering version:
  Install the hood and the two flues as described in the previous paragraph “ Fixing the decorative telescopic flue”. To assemble the filtering flue refer to the instructions contained in the kit. If the kit is not provided, order it from your dealer as accessory. The filters must be applied to the suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centered by turning them 90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig.8).

CARE & CLEANING

Before cleaning or maintenance switch off the electricity supply.

Replacing the LED Lights

If the appliance version is with LED lamps, the intervention of a specialized technician is necessary to replace them

Outer Casing

All external parts of the outer casing can be safely cleaned with a clean cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water. Do not use caustic pastes, abrasive cleaning powders, wire wool, hard implements or any products containing chlorides as they will damage the surfaces. Stubborn marks can be removed using a stainless steel cleaner. We recommend that you clean the whole of the stainless steel area to maintain a uniform finish. Sharp objects can mark the surface of stainless steel, but marks will become less noticeable with time.
To maintain the finish of the stainless steel, or to remove any greasy marks, wipe the stainless steel surface sparingly with a minimum amount of Baby Oil and kitchen paper.
Do not use cooking oils, as these may contain salt, which can damage the stainless steel surface. Before cleaning or maintenance switch off the electricity supply.
To avoid any fire risk, the following cleaning instructions must be followed:

Grease Filters

The grease filters absorb grease and dust from cooking fumes, which would otherwise damage the inside of the hood.

The grease filters should be removed and cleaned regularly – with normal use, this should be every 2 months.

To clean use warm soapy water, or wash in a dishwasher. The grease filters may slightly change colour following washing, however this does not affect their performance.

Important: Frequent washing is essential to prevent a build-up of grease in the filters which could become a fire hazard.

1. Remove the filters from the hood.
2. Carefully wash the grease filters in hot soapy water and dry with a clean towel.
3. Refit the clean filters.

Carbon Filters (models installed for use with the re-circulation method only) The carbon filters absorb cooking odors and need renewing after about 6 months of normal use. Replacement carbon filters can be obtained from our Customer Care (details at the rear of the handbook).
Saturation of the activated charcoal in the filter will depend on how often the hood is used, the
type of kitchen and the regularity of cleaning the grease filter.
The carbon filters cannot be washed – renew every 6 months.
