Suggestions for a correct use in order to reduce the environmental impact: Switch ON the hood at minimum speed when you start cooking and kept it running for few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of large amount of smoke and vapor and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when  necessary to maintain a good odor reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain a good grease filter efficiency. Use the maximum diameter of the ducting system indicated in this manual to optimize  efficiency and minimize noise.

Use
The hood is designed to be used for exhausting version.
In this case the fumes are conveyed outside of the building by means of a special pipe connected with the connection ring located on top of the hood.

CAUTION!
The exhausting pipe is not supplied and must be purchased apart.
Diameter of the exhausting pipe must be equal to that of the connection ring.
CAUTION!
If the hood is supplied with active charcoal filter, then it must be removed.
Connect the hood and discharge holes on the walls with a diameter equivalent to the air outlet (connection flange).
Using the tubes and discharge holes on walls with smaller dimensions will cause a diminution of the suction performance and a drastic increase in noise.
Any responsibility in the matter is therefore declined.

  • Use a duct of the minimum indispensable length.
  • Use a duct with as few elbows as possible (maximum elbow angle: 90°).
  • Avoid drastic changes in the duct cross-section.

Installation
The plasterboard structure must be suitable for supporting the weight of the product: 21 Kg.
The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking equipment on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 60cm from electric cookers and 70cm from gas or mixed cookers.
If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
The mains power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connect the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it not fitted with a plug (direct mains connection) or if the plug is not located in an accessible area, after installation, apply a double pole switch in accordance with standards which assures the complete disconnection of the mains under conditions relating to over-current category III, in accordance with installation instructions.
WARNING!
Before re-connecting the hood circuit to the mains supply and checking the efficient function, always check that the mains cable is correctly assembled.

Operation

This product is designed to work with an Elica remote control, either supplied with the product or purchased separately as an optional.
To control the hood via remote control, the affiliation procedure must be carried out.
CAUTION!
To begin, the hood must be disconnected and then reconnected to the power supply and the affiliation procedure must be carried out within the first minute of connection to the power.
Read the instructions supplied with the remote control, which provide detailed instructions on affiliation and correct use.
Note: the Speed 4 (and the Speed 5, where applicable) if selected, will activate for a limited period of time after which Speed 2 is automatically enabled.
Remote control connection (if applicable) Once the remote control has been connected, this will be displayed on the hood: both LEDs flash.

Note: Run the procedure with the hood switched off. The charcoal filter saturation indicator light is usually deactivated.
If no control is given within maximum 10 sec, the hood automatically exits this function, at any time, and returns to the previous state.
Press and hold the B+C keys (Simultaneously) to enter the setup menu:
Briefly press button C to select the filter to be set up: Grease filter:Green
Charcoal filter: Red
Briefly press button B to activate (the 2nd LED flashing) or deactivate (2nd LED off).
Note: the LEDs light up for a limited number of seconds after which they turn off to indicate that the indicator light has been activated (or deactivated).

Maintenance

Cleaning
Clean using ONLY a cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR
INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!
Panel Fig. 6
The panel for perimeter suction should always be left closed and should only be opened in case of maintenance interventions (eg cleaning or replacing filters).
Grease filter
Fig.7
Traps cooking grease particles.
This must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using non aggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must
be set to a low temperature and a short cycle.
When washed in a dishwasher, the grease filter may discolor slightly, but this does not affect its filtering capacity.
To remove the grease filter, pull the spring release handle.
Replacing lamps
The hood is equipped with a lighting system based on LED technology.
The LEDs guarantee an optimum lighting, a duration up to 10 times as long as the traditional lamps and allow to save 90% electrical energy.
For replacement, contact the technical service.
