INSTALLATION, OPERATING, AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR RANGE HOODS

DESIGNED FOR WALL FITTING 230 Vac • 50 Hz

Exhausting cooker hood

The equipment is constructed in accordance with European Standards and the requirements included in the following Directives: 73/23 EEC (electric-low tension safety),  89/336 EEC (electromagnetic compatibility), 93/68 EEC (EC marking regulations). Before installing and/or using the hood:

  • read all the instructions thoroughly;
  • be sure that the ceiling structure is suitable for the installation of this heavy equipment
  • make sure that the voltage (V) and frequency (Hz) ratings indicated on the plate inside the hood unit correspond to the ones available in the installation place.
  • At least two people are needed for the installation procedure, which it is advisable to entrust to competent technicians.

USE

This cooker hood can be employed as exhausting or filtering. Exhausting (external evacuation). Kitchen smokes are driven outside through a flue (not provided with the hood) joined to the exhaust pipe flue connector.
This pipe must not under any circumstances be connected to the cooker, boiler, or burner exhaust pipes, etc.
The use of pipes and holes on the wall with a smaller diameter than the output of the motor will cause a decrease in suction performance and an increase in the noise level. Use as short as possible tubes and with few curves.
Use pipes with smooth internal surfaces. Filtering (inside recycling). The fumes pass through activated carbon filters (supplied with the hood) to be purified and recycled into the kitchen.

INSTALLATION

Read the instruction manual before installing and/or using the hood. The minimum distance between the supporting surface of the cooking hob and the lowest part of the range hood must be not less than 65cm with a gas hob. If the mounting instructions of the gas hob indicate a wider distance, respect it.
The unit must not be mounted above cookers fitted with the top radiant plate.
For proper operation, it is recommended to install the product at a distance of 200 – 210 cm from the floor.
Respect all the air discharge regulations.
The air must not be discharged in a pipe used to discharge exhaust fumes produced by gas-fed equipment or fuel-fed equipment (this does not apply to filtering hoods).
The room must be adequately ventilated when the hoods are used together with other gas or fuel equipment.
For easy access, it is advisable to move possible furniture under the installation area.

INSTALLING THE HOOD

The hood can be installed in 2 different ways:
Fixed directly to the ceiling:
This method of fixing can only be achieved if the distance between the ceiling and the false ceiling is between 260 and 318mm.
For fixing, use the appropriate adjustable brackets (Fig. 5).
Perform the following steps in order:

  1.  Make an opening in the false ceiling following the dimensions shown in Fig. 1.
  2. Drill 4 holes on the ceiling following the dimensions shown in Fig. 1 for the subsequent anchoring of the adjustable brackets.
  3. Adjust the size of the brackets appropriately based on the distance between the ceiling and the false ceiling (Fig. 2).
  4. Screw the brackets to the load-bearing ceiling using the 4 screws supplied (Fig. 3).
  5. Access the lower side of the hood and open the main panel (Fig. 4).
  6. Remove the metal filters and the central cover (Fig. 10 and Fig. 11) and bring the hood closer to its housing.
  7. Electrically connect the hood and the air discharge pipe (Fig. 5).
  8. Anchor the hood using the 4 screws to the brackets previously fixed to the ceiling (Fig. 6).
  9. Reassemble the central cover and install the metal filters before closing the main panel.

• Fixed directly on the false ceiling:
WARNING: use this type of installation ONLY and EXCLUSIVELY when the false ceiling is able to support the weight of the hood:
MOD. LINE-UP87: 25Kg. – MOD. LINE-UP117: 30Kg.
For this method of installation, use the special brackets (Fig.7).
Perform the following steps in order:

  1. Assemble the 4 brackets as shown in Fig. 7 and tighten the 4 adjusting screws leaving sufficient travel to engage the hood in the false ceiling.
  2. Remove the metal filters and the central cover (Fig. 10 and Fig. 11) and place the hood in its housing.
  3. Electrically connect the hood and the air discharge pipe.
  4. With the hood positioned, adjust the adjusting screws until the hood is well anchored (Fig. 8). The aspirator can also, by means of the special extension, be positioned far from the hood at a distance not exceeding 7mt. In this case, the hood can only be used in the exhaust version.
    Respect the installation methods as shown in Fig. 9 in order to keep the fan’s rotation axis horizontal. For the electrical connection of the motor away from the hood always use the supplied extension cord and make the earthing connection using the yellow-green wire.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

This equipment must be connected to a grounding plant.
Two types of electrical connection can be used:

  1. Using a standard plug to be connected to the power cable and inserted in a mains socket which must be accessible (so that the plug can be disconnected when servicing is carried out). Make sure that the plug is accessible also after the complete installation of the equipment.
  2. By means of a fixed mains connection, fitting a bipolar switch, which ensures the disconnection, with an opening distance of the contacts allowing a complete disconnection on the conditions of the overvoltage III category, according to installation regulations. The ground connection (yellow-green wire) must not be interrupted.
    Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage and frequency ratings.
    If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer by its service agent or a qualified person in order to avoid any risk.

For stationary appliances permanently connected to the fixed wiring, compliance with this requirement is considered to be met if the instruction concerning disconnection incorporated in the fixed wiring is in accordance with AS/NZS 3000
Refer to the plate inside the hood for the mains voltage and frequency ratings.

OPERATION

The hood is supplied with a multi-speed motor.
The hood should be run at low speed under normal conditions and at higher speeds only when there is a heavy build-up of fumes or odor. Ideally, the hood should be switched on as soon as cooking is started and then kept on until all odors have been eliminated.

REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

When turned on, the engine is positioned at the second speed. The motor speed is indicated by the lighting of the respective green LED (ref. pos. 1-2-3-4). At the fourth speed  (intensive, ref. pos. 4), the LED flashes and after 5 minutes the motor returns to the third speed automatically.

INSTALLATION

REMOTE CONTROL ENCODING
The supplied remote control is already encoded and can be used from the beginning for the total control of the hood.
To encode another remote control, hold the button “P” on the hood for 4 seconds until the programming red LED lights up, at this point press immediately after the On / Off aspirator.
When the red LED turns off, the programming is closed and you cannot any longer program the remote control.

SAFETY SWITCH
In case the remote control is lost or out of batteries, the appliance shall be switched off by pushing the “P” button.

RESTORING FACTORY CONDITIONS (RESET)
Hold down the “P” button until the red LED lights up and continue to press the button without releasing until the LED turns off by itself. At this point, no remote control will be coupled and it will be necessary to pair one again.
GREASE FILTER MAINTENANCE WARNING
The electronic control report, after 100 hours of operation, with the flashing of the LEDs, for 30 seconds at shutdown of the hood, the need for cleaning of the grease filters. To reset the counter, after cleaning the filters, while the flashing warning press the “+” on the remote control until shutdown.

 MAINTENANCE AND REMINDERS

Always disconnect the hood from the mains before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning operation.
Particular attention should be paid to the metallic antifreeze filters that are designed to trap particles of fat contained in the fumes. The metallic anti- grease filters must be ashed at least once a month with detergent in hot water (or in the dishwasher). The filters may dis-color after a few washes. This is normal and does not mean they have to be replaced. To remove the metallic anti- grease filters, open the bottom panel of the hood and then remove the filter by the handle. Fig. 17.

ATTENTION:

  • the grease collected in the filter can easily catch fire and it is therefore extremely important to clean the metallic filter on a regular basis as per instructions. Grease filters are emoved as illustrated (Fig. 5).
  • Do not flambé under the range hood
  • Caution; accessible parts may become hot when used with cooking appliances.
  • Never leave the hob unattended when frying, as oil or fat can catch fire.
    The activated charcoal filters, if present, are designed to collect unpleasant odors in the cooking fumes. The air is

then released purified in the environment. The charcoal filters must not be washed, but replaced 2 or 3 times a year, depending on how much the hood is used. New filters are to be requested directly from the manufacturer. To replace the charcoal filters, just remove the motor protection panel, centrally positioned between the metal filters: locking is performed with magnetic closures; simply exert a modest manual force, without the use of tools. At this point you can remove the active charcoal filter through rotation of about 90 ° with respect to their position to unhook from the locking lugs, accompanying than the filter downward, without the aid of tools. Fig.18-19-20-21.
To reinstall the newly activated carbon filters, reverse operations.
In order to remove the remaining glue or any impurity, the cooker hood must be cleaned immediately after installation and after having removed the protective film.
The cooker hood must be cleaned frequently both internally and externally (at least once a month).
Do not let dirt gather on the inner and outer surfaces of the hood.
To clean the exterior of the hood do not use either acid or basic products, or abrasive sponges.
Clean the hood with a sponge damped in warm water and a little quantity of neutral detergent (for example dishwasher detergent), in order to remove possible particles of grease.
Rinse with a damp cloth, removing all the detergent carefully, following the satin finish direction on the steel surface.
Drying is very important, especially in areas where water is particularly hard and leaves limestone.
The hood features a LED light that, in addition to offering good lighting and significant energy savings, are guaranteed to last on average 10 times more than traditional lights.
All the ordinary and extraordinary maintenance can be performed without having to remove the hood.
