Suggestions for 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 a few minutes after cooking is finished. Increase the speed only in case of a large amount of smoke and vapor and use boost speed(s) only in extreme situations. Replace the charcoal filter(s) when necessary to maintain good odor reduction efficiency. Clean the grease filter(s) when necessary to maintain 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 either for exhausting or filter versions.
Ducting version
The hood is equipped with a top air outlet B for discharge of fumes to the outside (exhaust pipe and pipe fixing clamps not provided).
Attention! If the hood is supplied with a carbon filter, then it must be removed.

Filter version
In the case of not being able to discharge the fumes and the steam of cooking outside, the hood in the filter version can be used by mounting the F deflector on the flue and one or more carbon filters (on the basis of the model possessed). The fumes and steam are recycled into the kitchen through upper grill H.
Attention! If the hood is not supplied with a carbon filter, then it must be ordered and mounted.

The models with no suction motor only operate in ducting mode and must be connected to an external suction device (not supplied).
The connecting instructions are supplied with the peripheral suction unit.

Installation

Fig. 3
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 50cm from electric cookers and 65cm from gas or mixed cookers. If the instructions for installation of the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.

Electrical connection
The main power supply must correspond to the rating indicated on the plate situated inside the hood. If provided with a plug connects the hood to a socket in compliance with current regulations and is positioned in an accessible area, after installation. If it is 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 that assure 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.

Mounting

Expansion wall plugs are provided to secure the hood to most types of walls/ceilings. However, a qualified technician must verify the suitability of the materials in accordance with the type of wall/ceiling. The wall/ceiling must be strong enough to take the weight of the hood.
Do not tile, grout or silicone this appliance to the wall. Surface mounting only.

Operation

The hood is fitted with a control panel with aspiration speed selection control and a light switch to control cooking area lights.

Maintenance

Cleaning
Clean using ONLY the cloth dampened with neutral liquid detergent. DO NOT CLEAN WITH TOOLS OR INSTRUMENTS. Do not use abrasive products. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL!

Grease filter
Traps cooking grease particles.
The grease filter must be cleaned once a month using nonaggressive 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.
Fig. 1

Charcoal filter (filter version only)
Fig. 2
It absorbs unpleasant odors caused by cooking.
The saturation of the charcoal filter occurs after more or less prolonged use, depending on the type of cooking and the regularity of cleaning of the grease filter. In any case, it is necessary to replace the cartridge at least every four months. The charcoal filter may NOT be washed or regenerated. Remove the grease filters. Fit the charcoal filters over the motor. Align the pins R on the cowl with the slots S, then turn the filter clockwise until it locks in place. Reverse the above procedure to remove the charcoal filters. Refit the grease filters.

Replacing lamps
