RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

The instructions for Use apply to several versions of this appliance. Accordingly, you may find descriptions of individual features that do not apply to your specific appliance.

INSTALLATION

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
• The minimum distance between the supporting surface for the cooking vessels on the hob and the lowest part of the range hood. ( When the range hood is located above a gas appliance, this distance shall be at least 65 cm. If the instructions for installation for the gas hob specify a greater distance, this has to be taken into account. The distance of 65 cm can be reduced for:non-combustible parts of range hoods, and parts operating at safety extra low voltage,Provided these parts do not give access to live parts if deformed 😉 Check that the mains voltage corresponds to that indicated on the rating plate fixed to the hood.
• For Class I appliances,check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing. Connect the extractor to the exhaust flue through a pipe of minimum diameter 120mm. The route of the flue must be as short as possible.
• The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• If the extractor is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e.g. gas burning appliances),a sufficient degree of aeration must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening communicating directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
• When the cooker hood is used in conjunction with appliances supplied with energy other than electric, the negative pressure in the room must not exceed 0,04 mbar to prevent fumes being drawn back into the room by the cooker hood.
• 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.
• Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.
