GENERAL
Carefully read the following important information regarding installation safety and maintenance. Keep this information booklet accessible for further consultations. The appliance has been designed for use in the ducting version (air exhaust to the outside – Fig. 1B), filtering version (air circulation on the inside – Fig. 1A) or with external motor (Fig. 1C).
SAFETY PRECAUTION
1. Take care when the cooker hood is operating simultaneously with an open fireplace or burner that depend on the air in the environment and are supplied by other than electrical energy, as the cooker hood removes the air from the environment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa (4×10-5 bar). Provide adequate ventilation in the environment for a safe operation of the cooker hood. Follow the local laws applicable for external air evacuation.
Before connecting the model to the electricity network:
– Control the data plate (positioned inside the appliance) to ascertain that
the voltage and power correspond to the network and the socket is suitable. If
in doubt ask a qualified electrician.
– If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced with another cable
or a special assembly, which may be obtained direct from the manufacturer or
from the Technical Assistance Centre.
-This device must be connected to the supply network through either a plug fused 3A or hardwired to a 2 fase spur protected by 3A fuse.
2. Warning!
In certain circumstances electrical appliances may be a danger hazard.
A) Do not check the status of the filters while the cooker hood is
operating.
B) Do not touch bulbs or adjacent areas, during or straight after prolonged
use of the lighting installation.
C) Flambe cooking is prohibited underneath the cooker hood.
D) Avoid free flame, as it is damaging for the filters and a fire hazard.
E) Constantly check food frying to avoid that the overheated oil may become
a fire hazard.
F) Disconnect the electrical plug prior to any maintenance.
G) This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision.
H) Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the
appliance.
I) There shall be adequate ventilation of the room when the rangehood is
used at the same time as appliances burning gas or other fuels.
L) There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out in accordance
with the instructions.
This appliance conforms to the European Directive EC/2002/96, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEE). By making sure that this appliance is disposed of in a suitable manner, the user is helping to prevent potential damage to the environment or to public health.

For more information on the treatment, re-use and recycling of this product, please contact your local authority, domestic waste collection service or the shop where the appliance was purchased.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Assembly and electrical connections must be carried out by specialised personnel.
- Wear protective gloves before proceeding with the installation.
• Electric Connection:
– The appliance has been manufactured as a class II, therefore no earth cable
is necessary. The plug must be easily accessible after the installation of the
appliance. If the appliance is equipped with power cord without plug, a
suitably dimensioned omnipolar switch with 3 mm minimum opening between
contacts must be fitted between the appliance and the electricity supply in
compliance with the load and current regulations.
– The connection to the mains is carried out as follows:
BROWN = L line
BLUE = N neutral.
• If the hob is electric, gas, or induction, the minimum distance between the
same and the lower part of the hood must be at least 65 cm. If a
connection tube composed of two parts is used, the upper part must be placed
outside the lower part. Do not connect the cooker hood exhaust to the same
conductor used to circulate hot air or for evacuating fumes from other
appliances generated by other than an electrical source. Before proceeding
with the assembly operations, remove the anti-grease filter(s) (Fig. 5) so
that the unit is easier to handle.
– In the case of assembly of the appliance in the suction version prepare the
hole for evacuation of the air.
• We recommend the use of an air exhaust tube which has the same diameter as the air exhaust outlet hole. If a pipe with a smaller diameter is used, the efficiency of the product may be reduced and its operation may become noisier.
• Fixing to the wall:
Drill the holes A respecting the distances indicated (Fig. 2). Fix the
appliance to the wall and align it in horizontal position to the wall units.
When the appliance has been adjusted, definitely fix the hood using the screws
A (Fig. 4). 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, check that they
are suitable for the type of wall on which the hood is to be fixed.
• Fixing the decorative telescopic flue:
Arrange the electrical power supply within the dimensions of the decorative
flue. If your appliance is to be installed in the ducting version or in the
version with external motor, prepare the air exhaust opening. Adjust the width
of the support bracket of the upper flue (Fig. 3).Then fix it to the ceiling
using the screws A (Fig. 3) in such a way that it is in line with your
hood and respecting the distance from the ceiling indicated in Fig. 2. Connect
the flange C to the air exhaust hole using a connection pipe (Fig. 4). Insert
the upper flue into the lower flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the
screws B provided (Fig. 4), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and
fix it with the screws B (Fig. 3).To transform the hood from a ducting
version into a filtering version, ask your dealer for the charcoal filters and
follow the installation instructions.
• Filtering version:
Install the hood and the two flues as described in the paragraph for
installation of the hood in ducting version. To assemble the filtering flue
refer to the instructions contained in the kit. If the kit is not provided,
order it from your dealer as accessory. The filters must be applied to the
suction unit positioned inside the hood. They must be centred by turning them
90 degrees until the stop catch is tripped (Fig. 6).
USE AND MAINTENANCE
• We recommend that the cooker hood is switched on before any food is cooked.
We also recommend that the appliance is left running for 15 minutes after the
food is cooked, in order to thoroughly eliminate all contaminated air. The
effective performance of the cooker hood depends on constant maintenance; the
anti-grease filter and the active carbon filter both require special
attention.
• The anti-grease filter is responsible retaining the grease particles
suspended in the air, therefore it is subject to clogging with variable
frequency according to the use of the appliance.
– To prevent the danger of possible fires, at least every 2 months one must
wash the anti-grease filters by hand using non-abrasive neutral liquid
detergents or in the dishwasher at low temperatures and on short cycles.
– In the event that acrylic anti-grease filters are used, hand-wash every 2
months, using neutral non-abrasive liquid detergents and replace them after
every 6 washes.
– After a few washes, colour alterations may occur. This does not give the
right to claim their replacement.
• The active carbon filters are used to purify the air that is sent back
into the room and its function is to mitigate the unpleasant odours produced
by cooking.
– The non-regenerable active carbon filters must be replaced at least every 4
months. The saturation of the active charcoal depends on the more or less
prolonged use of the appliance, on the type of kitchen and on the frequency
with which anti-grease filter is cleaned.
• Before remounting the anti-grease filters and the regenerable active
charcoal filters it is important that they are completely dry.
• Clean the hood frequently, both internally and externally, using a cloth
dampened with denatured alcohol or neutral liquid detergents that are non
abrasive.
• The lighting system is designed for use during cooking and not for the
prolonged general lighting of the room. The prolonged use of the lighting
system significantly decreases the average duration of the bulbs.
• Attention: the non compliance with the hood cleaning warnings and with
the replacement and cleaning of the filters entails risk of fires. One
therefore recommends keeping to the suggested instructions.
• Replacing the halogen/incandescent lamps (Fig. 7):
Only use lamps of the same type and wattage installed on the device.
• Commands (Fig. 8) mechanical the key symbols are explained below:
A = LIGHT
B = OFF
C = SPEED I
D = SPEED II
E = SPEED III.
CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE SERVICE
Before contacting the Technical Assistance Service. If the product does not
operate at all, we advise you to:

If you cannot identify the cause of the operating anomaly: switch off the
appliance (do not subject it to rough treatment) and contact the Assistance
Service.
PRODUCT SERIAL NUMBER. Where can I find it?
It is important that you inform the Assistance Service of your product code
and its serial number (a 16-character code which begins with the number 3);
