Instructions for disposal

1. ENVIRONMENTAL CARE
1.1 Our environmental care

Pursuant to Community Directives relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic appliances, as well as to the disposal of refuse, the crossed-out bin symbol on the appliance indicates that the product, at the end of its working life, must be collected separately from other refuse. Therefore, the user must deliver the product that has reached the end of its working life to the appropriate recycling centre for electrical and electronic refuse, or return it to the retailer when purchasing an equivalent product, on a one for one basis. Adequate selective collection for the subsequent forwarding of the decommissioned product to recycling, treatment and ecologically compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and on health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the appliance consists. Illicit disposal of the product by the user will lead to the application of administrative sanctions.

The product does not contain substances in quantities sufficient to be considered hazardous to health and the environment, in accordance with current European directives.

1.2 Your environmental care

Our product’s packaging is made of non-polluting materials, therefore compatible with the environment and recyclable. Please help by disposing of the packaging correctly. You can obtain the addresses of local collection, recycling and disposal centres from your retailer or from the competent local organisations.

Do not discard the packaging or any part of it, or leave it unattended. It can constitute a suffocation hazard for children, especially the plastic bags.

Your old appliance also needs to be disposed of correctly.

Important: hand over your appliance to the local agency authorised for the collection of electrical appliances no longer in use. Correct disposal enables intelligent recovery of valuable materials.

Before disposing of your appliance, you should remove the grease filter to ensure that children cannot accidentally become trapped inside whilst playing. It is also necessary to cut the connecting cable to the mains, removing it along with the plug.

Instructions for the installer

2. PRECAUTIONS

Read the instructions booklet carefully before installing and starting up the appliance. All installation, assembly, servicing and extraordinary maintenance must be carried out by qualified personnel who have the necessary professional requisites (authorised by the manufacturer or dealer) and in accordance with current regulations regarding product and workplace safety in the country of installation. Incorrect installation, servicing, maintenance, cleaning and any tampering or modifications can cause malfunctions, damage and injury. The function of this appliance is to extract the steam emitted from the oven’s steam outlet and steam that escapes when the oven door is opened. Any other use is considered improper and therefore dangerous. This appliance is intended for commercial use, for example in kitchens of restaurants, canteens or hospitals and in commercial enterprises such as bakeries, butcher shops etc. but not for the continuous mass production of food. Take special care when there are other appliances that use an open flame in the same room in order to prevent the backflow of combustion gases. Do not flambé foods under the extractor hood.

6. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
6.1 Warning

WARNING: Connection to the mains power supply must be carried out by a qualified and authorised technician and in accordance with the current international, national and local regulations in the country of installation. Before connecting to the mains power supply, make sure that the voltage (…..V) and frequency (….Hz) are the same as those indicated on the data plate on the back of the appliance. Position the cable so that no part of it is exposed to a room temperature of more than 50°C. For appliances equipped with cable and plug (single-phase 220-240V) simply insert the plug into the appropriate socket (the socket must be suitable for the plug supplied and must be rated for the load required by the appliance, which is indicated on the Data Plate). It must also be earthed. The appliance should be positioned so that the plug is always accessible.

The appliance is supplied with certified cable and plug (where provided); they must not be tampered with or modified.

The cable can only be replaced: this must be carried out by a qualified and authorized technician. The earth wire should always be yellow-green.

The appliance should be connected directly to the mains power supply and must be fitted with an easily accessible upstream switch and installed in accordance with the current international, national and local regulations in the country of installation. This switch must have a contact separation in all poles that provides full disconnection under overvoltage category III.

Proper earthing is mandatory and for no reason should the earth wire be interrupted by the protective switch.

When the appliance is in operation, the power supply voltage must not fluctuate by more than ± 10% with respect to the value shown on the data plate.

Incorrect connection could lead to the terminal board overheating, which could cause it to melt or cause an electric shock.

EQUIPOTENTIAL CONNECTION – This connection shall be carried between the different appliances with the terminal marked by the symbol: (see image). This terminal enables the connection of Yellow/Green cable with a section between 2.5 and 10mm2. The appliance shall be included in an equipotential system whose efficiency shall be duly verified according to the provisions of the laws in force.

6.2 Cable replacement

This should only be carried out by a qualified and authorised technician. The earth wire should always be yellow-green.

Make sure that all electrical connections are tight before connecting the oven to the mains power supply.

WARNING: incorrect connection could lead to the terminal board overheating, which could cause it to melt or cause an electric shock.

Check for earth leakage between the phases and earth. Check for electrical continuity between the external casing and the earth wire of the mains. We recommend using a multimeter to perform these tasks.

7. DRAINAGE CONNECTION
7.1 Waste water

Water coming out from the drainage system of the appliance may reach high temperatures (90°C). The hoses used for draining the water must be able to withstand such temperatures.

The water drainage pipe is located in the back of the appliance and should be connected using a rigid or flexible pipe and conveyed to an open drain or a drain with a water trap; its diameter must not be smaller than that of the appliance’s drainage connection. It is recommended that you install a suitable water trap between the appliance and the drain to prevent vapours escaping from the hood and unpleasant odours entering from the drainage system.

Avoid pinching in the hoses or elbow joints in rigid pipes along the entire drainage system. Too ensure adequate flow, the pipe must have a minimum slope of 5% along its entire length. Any pipes that are almost horizontal should not be longer than one metre.

The appliance must have its own connection to the drain. If there are other appliances or equipment connected to a single pipe, make sure it is large enough allow proper drainage and unobstructed flow.

Local regulations and standards must be followed.
