Cleaning

Attention:  Before performing any maintenance operation, isolate the hood from the electrical supply by switching off at the connector and removing the connector fuse. Or if the appliance has been connected through a plug and socket, then the plug must be removed from the socket. The cooker hood should be cleaned regularly (at least with the same frequency with which you carry out maintenance of the fat filters) internally and externally. Do not use abrasive products. Do not use alcohol!

Attention: Failure to carry out the basic cleaning recommendations of the cooker hood and replacement of the filters may cause fire risks. Therefore, we recommend serving these instructions. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to the hood or any fire damage linked to inappropriate maintenance or failure to observe the above safety recommendations.

Cooker hood

Clean the cooker hood with soapy water and a soft cloth. Then wipe with clean water to rinse. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as soda. The cooker hood paintwork will stay looking nice if you wax it occasionally.

Stainless steel canopy hoods

Do not use any sort of scourer. Treat with a stainless steel care product and polish with the structure of the stainless steel.

Metal grease filters

These must be cleaned once a month (or when the filter saturation indication system – if envisaged on the model in possession – indicates this necessity) using nonaggressive detergents, either by hand or in the dishwasher, which must be set to a low temperature and a short cycle. The openings must be placed downwards to let the water run out of the filters. The cleaning agents will make the aluminum filter turn dull, this is normal.

Grease filters

Removing the grease filters

Switch off the electricity! Remove the plug from the socket or switch the electricity off at the mains. Pull the grease filter towards you and tilt it downwards at the front.

Lighting

Attention: This hood is fitted with an LED light! These have to be replaced by a authorized technician. Do not attempt to replace the LED light by yourself.

What should I do if…

If the appliance does not work properly, this does not always mean that it is defective. Try to deal with the problem yourself first. Phone the service department if the advice given below does not work.

Attention: Disconnect the appliance from the mains before starting the repair, preferably by removing the plug from the socket or setting the main switch to zero.

General

This appliance should be connected to the power supply by a recognized fitter who is familiar with and works according to the correct safety regulations. This appliance meets European requirements.

Important that you know

• The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the gas hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65 cm. For use with electric, ceramic or induction hob, this distance must be at least 55 cm.
• The discharge may only be connected to a central mechanical extraction.
• Consider local regulations with respect to the ventilation of gas appliances.
• The shorter the duct, and the fewer the bends in it, the better the cooker hood will work.
• Before you start drilling check that there are no installation cables present.
• The connecting pipe for the cooker hood has a diameter of 125 mm. It is best also to use a flue pipe of the same diameter.
• The installation material supplied with this range hood is designed for fixing to reinforced concrete or masonry walls. For some types of walls, you may need special plugs and screws.

Connection

Electric connection

The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable is necessary. Make sure the supply voltage ratings correspond with those stated on the appliance data plate. The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:

• BROWN = phase L
• BLUE = phase N

This canopy hood has been provided with a power plug. When installing the hood, make sure that this plug remains accessible. We recommend installing the wall socket out of view, behind the chimney cover.

Attention: If you want to make a fixed connection, ensure that a multi- pole switch with a distance between contacts of 3 mm is installed in the supply cable.

Mounting

• Mount the hood on the wall using the plugs and screws provided in bracket (A). Check size specifications.

• Adjust the width of the brackets to the width of the upper chimney. Next, mount the bracket on the wall using the plugs and the screws (B). Take into account the distance between the bracket and the ceiling (Check size specifications).

• Install the vent duct on the flange (C)and then onto the connecting surface of the exhaust grid.

• Put the plug in the wall socket.

• Slide the upper chimney into the lower chimney.

• Attach the lower chimney to the hood using the screws provided (D).

• Slide the upper chimney around the bracket and attach with the screws provided (E).
