RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

INSTALLATION

• The manufacturer will not be held liable for any damages resulting from incorrect or improper installation.
• Please read this instruction manual carefully before installing and using this range hood. Please keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.
• This rangehood is designed to be used only in the Ducted Mode
• Only a qualified and trained service technician can undertake the work of the installation and servicing.
• Check that the mains voltage corresponds to the one indicated on the rating plate fixed inside the hood.
• Check that the domestic power supply guarantees adequate earthing.
• Do not connect the hood to exhaust ducts carrying combustion fumes (boilers, fireplaces, etc.)
• If the hood is used in conjunction with non-electrical appliances (e. g. gas burning appliances), a sufficient degree of ventilation must be guaranteed in the room in order to prevent the backflow of exhaust gas. The kitchen must have an opening directly with the open air in order to guarantee the entry of clean air.
• The minimum distance is 750mm from the cooker hood to a gas hob and is 650mm to an electric hob. If the installation instructions for gas/electric hobs specify a greater distance the same must be taken into account.
  NOTICE: Considering the excessive weight, two or more people are required to install or move this appliance. Failure to do so can cause physical injuries and damage to the product.

OPERATION

• The rangehood has been designed only for domestic use to eliminate kitchen fumes.
• Never use the hood for purposes other than what it has been designed for.
• Never leave high naked flames under the hood when it is in operation.
• Adjust the flame intensity to direct it onto the bottom of the pan only to make sure that it does not engulf the pan sides.
• Deep fryer must be continuously monitored during use: overheated oil can burst into flame.
• The hood should not be used by children or persons not instructed on its correct usage.

MAINTENANCE

• Proper maintenance of the rangehood will assure proper performance of the unit.
• Disconnect the hood from the main supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
• Clean and/or replace grease filters after a specified period of time.
• Clean the hood using a damp cloth and a neutral liquid detergent.
• DISPOSAL: Do not dispose of this product as unsorted municipal waste.
  Collection of such waste separately for special treatment is necessary.

INSTALLATION & USE

Note 1: Carefully remove the protective film from chimney and front panel
prior to final installation.
Note 2: At least two people will be required to mount the hood.

FIXING TO THE WALL

1. Drill the holes according to the distances indicated (Fig.2).
2. Fix the appliance to the wall and align it in a horizontal position to the wall units.
3. When the appliance has been adjusted, fix the hood using the screws A.
   For the various installations use screws and screw anchors suited to the type of wall (e.g. reinforced concrete, plasterboard, etc.). If the screws and screw anchors are provided with the product, kindly check the screws are suitable for the type of wall in which the hood is to be fixed.

Fixing Chimney

1.  Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the chimney.
   If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the version with an external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening.

2. Adjust the width of the support bracket of the exterior chimney (Fig.3).
   Then fix it to the ceiling using the screws A (Fig.2) make sure that it is in line with your hood and respect the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig.2.
   Connect the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig.4).

DUCT FIXING
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire, recommend using aluminum ductwork.

1. Attach an adequate length of φ150mm round duct into the recessed area of the air outlet adapter.
2. The duct has to be secured using two screws from two sides of the air outlet adapter. Make sure the duct is fixed well on.

DESCRIPTION / CONNECTIONS

Ducted mode air exhaust system
The hood draws the cooking fumes saturated with fumes and odor through the grease filters and expels it to the outside through an outlet pipe.
Caution: To reduce the risk of fire, use metal ductwork only.

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

2. A straight, 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. Attach an adequate length of φ150mm round duct to the air outlet adapter.
   Let the exhaust run for a minimum of 1 meter in a Straight line in between bends/elbows for better efficiency.

5. The air must not be discharged into a flue that is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels”  “Regulations concerning the discharge of air have to be fulfilled.

6. Install a roof/wall ducting kit. Connect round metal ductwork to cap and work back towards the hood location. Use duct tape to seal the joints between ductwork sections.

Electrical Connection

• Electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Turn off electrical power at the 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 than the ones initially supplied with the hood.
• The earthing of this hood is compulsory. Do not remove the ground prong of the plug.

When key B is being pressed, it shows “1” on the digital display screen at the same time the first speed is on. By pressing key B again to switch off, the digital display will show “00” on the screen.
When key D is being pressed, it shows “3” on the digital display screen at the same time the third speed is on. By pressing key D again to switch off, the digital display will show “00” on the screen.

MAINTENANCE

Switch off or unplug the appliance from the main supply before carrying out any maintenance work.
GREASE FILTER

• The grease filters should be cleaned frequently (every two months of operation, or more frequently for heavy use). Use a warm detergent solution.

• Grease filters are washable.

  1. Remove the grease filter by pressing the latch on the filter (Fig5). This will disengage the filter from the hood. Tilt the filter downward and remove it.
  2. Wash the filters, taking care not to bend them. Allow them to be dry before refitting.
  3. To install the grease filter, press the latch on the filter again. Make sure the filter is securely engaged after assembly.

GREASE FILTER CLEANING

• Remove the filters from the cooker hood and wash them in a solution of water and neutral liquid detergent, leaving to soak.
  Rinse thoroughly with warm water and leave to dry.
  The filters may also be washed in the dishwasher.
• Please take note that the aluminum panels may alter in color after several washes.

Hood Cleaning
Glass and aluminum are two of the easiest materials to keep clean.
Occasional care will help preserve its fine appearance. Cleaning tips:

• Hot water with soap or detergent is all that is usually needed.
• Follow all cleaning by rinsing with clear water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth to avoid watermarks.
• For discolorations or deposits that persist, use a non-scratching household cleanser or stainless steel polishing powder with a little water and a soft cloth.
• For stubborn cases use a plastic scouring pad or soft bristle brush together with cleanser and water. Rub lightly in direction of polishing lines or “grind” the aluminum finish. Avoid using too much pressure that may mar the surface.
• Do not allow deposits to remain for long periods of time.
• Do not use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface causing rust.
• Do not allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with an aluminum finish for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals that may be harmful. Rinse with water after exposure and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
• Painted surfaces should be cleaned with warm water and mild detergent only.
