  • Check that the main voltage corresponds to the one indicated on the rating plate attached to the inside of the hood.
  • If the hood is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (i.e. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of ventilation must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas.

INSTALLATION & USE

OPERATION OF CONTROLS
The hood is operated using the push button on the front panel. The light switch tums the lamps on and off. The blower switch turns the blower on to three speed settings:
**– OFF
1 -LOW SPEED
2 – MEDIUM SPEED
3 – HIGH SPEED FORNO FRHRE5346-48 Frassanito 48 Recessed Range Hood -
controls
Grease Filters
The grease filters should be cleaned frequently. Use a warm detergent solution.
Grease filters are washable
Ducting
The hood draws the cooking air saturated with fumes and odor, through the grease filters and then expels it to the outside through an outlet pipe.
Acaution:** To reduce the risk of fire, the use of metal ductwork is preferred. Do not use flammable material to transport exhaust air. FORNO
FRHRE5346-48 Frassanito 48 Recessed Range Hood - filters

  1. Decide where the ductwork will run between the hood and the outside.

  2. Astraight, short duct run will allow the hood to perform most efficiently.

  3. Long duct runs, elbows, and transitions will reduce the performance of the hood. Use as few of them as possible.
    Larger ducting may be required for best performance with longer duct runs.

  4. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fume from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Regulations concerning the discharge of air must be followed. Check with the local authority and building codes for exhaust ducting requirements.

  5. Install a roof/wall cap. Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards hood location.

Electrical Connection

  • Electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Tumn off electrical power at service entrance before wiring.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
  • Do not use the plug and an extension cord other that the ones initially supplied with the hood.

WARNING

  1. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.
  2. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
    This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord with a grounding wire and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
    WARNING -Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
    Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if there is doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install an outlet near the appliance.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire and to properly exhaust air, be sure to vent air outside – Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls, ceilings or into attics, crawl spaces, or garages. FORNO FRHRE5346-48
Frassanito 48 Recessed Range Hood - filters 1INSTALLATION
Before beginning the installation, we advise you to remove the aluminium filter, to better handle the hood. Before attaching it, the outlet exhaust duct for air evacuation to the outside must be installed. Use an outlet exhaust duct with:
– Minimum possible bends (maximum angle of bend: 90°);
– Certified material (according to local, building and fire regulations);
-and as smooth as possible inside.
It is also advisable to avoid any drastic changes in duct cross-section (recommended diameter: 6-1/8″) FORNO FRHRE5346-48 Frassanito 48 Recessed
Range Hood - overviewDrill the hole in the wall for the air outlet (6-1/2″ diameter) referring to drawings here on the right where the measurements for the various possibilities are indicated.
Decide on the position of the hole for the air outlet: The hole must be in the ceiling, according to your requirements, but must be in vertical line with your hood.
Bear in mind that the hood can expel air through the top air outlet only.
Fitting under wall unit
Note 1: Before attaching the hood to the wall unit, drill 2 holes of 6 1/2″ diameter into the wall unit.
Note 2: In any case, check the position of the power outlet where the power cable will run, since a hole might have to be made in the wall unit to accommodate it.
