Note: the elements marked with the symbol “()” are optional accessories supplied only with some models or elements to purchase, not supplied.
Check (for transport reasons) that there is no other supplied material inside the hood (e.g. packets with screws (
), guarantees (*), etc.), eventually removing them and keeping them.

Closely follow the instructions set out in this manual.

All responsibility, for any eventual inconveniences, damages, or fires caused by not complying with the instructions in this manual, is declined. This appliance is intended to be used in households and similar applications such as: – staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, and other working environments; – farm houses; – clients in hotels, motels, and other residential-type environments; – bed and breakfast-type environments.
The hood is supplied with an upper air outlet (A1 – attachment to bayonet fitting + screw) for exterior fume extraction (Aspiration version A), remove the corresponding removable metal panel and install the tube connector.
Check that selector G is in suction position (A). If it is not possible to discharge the cooking fumes and steam outside, the filtering version hood can be used, mounting a carbon filter (*). The fumes and steam are recycled through a front grill placed over the command panel (do not remove the pre- fractural walls!). Check that selector G is in the filtering position (F).

    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 large amounts 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.

Installation

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 for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this must be adhered to.
The template (*) can be used for installation.

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.
