INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

The range hood is designed for fume and smoke extraction during food preparation.
CAUTION!

• USE THE SHORTEST POSSIBLE EXHAUST DUCT.
• USE AN EXHAUST DUCT WITH A SMOOTH INTERNAL SURFACE (SPIRO DUCTS ARE NOT RECOMMENDED).
• ANY BENDING OF THE DUCT SHOULD BE LIMITED TO MINIMUM (THE ANGLES SHOULD NOT EXCEED 90°).
• COMBINING DUCTS WITH DIFFERENT CROSS-SECTIONS IS NOT RECOMMENDED (E.G. Ø15 CM WITH Ø12 CM).
• ENSURE THAT THE SIZE OF THE SUCTION OPENING IS AT LEAST AS BIG AS THE SIZE OF THE AIR EXHAUST. THIS WILL PREVENT NEGATIVE PRESSURE AND ENSURE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE HOOD.
• IF THERE ARE ANY OPEN-FLAME APPLIANCES IN THE ROOM (E.G.: SOLID AND LIQUID FUEL COOKERS, FIREPLACES, HEATERS, ETC.). MAKE SURE THERE IS AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FRESH AIR.

CAUTION!
USE SCREWS AND FASTENERS APPROVED IN THE MANUAL TO AVOID THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
The minimum distance between the surface of the cooker and the lowest part of the range hood (see figure below) must be at least 45 cm for electric cookers and 65 cm for gas cookers. If the cooker manual indicates a greater distance than specified above, follow the instructions in the cooker manual.Installation of the product is shown in Figures 5 – 13. During installation, follow the general regulations concerning air extraction.

PREPARATION BEFORE HOOD INSTALLATION

• Check whether the dimensions of the purchased product are suitable for the selected place of installation.
• Disconnect and remove (if possible) any appliances in the installation space to facilitate access to the ceiling or wall where the hood will be installed. If this is not possible, secure these elements.
• Check whether there is a socket near the hood installation space and whether it is possible to connect the hood to a ventilation duct for fume extraction.
• Make sure there are no lines of electric and plumbing installations in places where holes will be drilled.
• Prepare the following tools: tape measure, pencil, drill/driver, Ø3 mm drill bit, screwdriver, level.

CAUTION!
TAKE CARE NOT TO SCRATCH THE HOOD.

HOOD INSTALLATION

1. Prepare the hood installation cabinet by disassembling the bottom shelf as shown in the figure.
2. Remove the aluminium anti-grease filter.
3. Decide which way to route the outlet pipe. Then remove the cap and screw the adapter in the desired location.
4. Drill four Ø3mm blind holes and insert screws.
5. Place two angle brackets on the screws and mount the hood by screwing in six Allen screws.
6. To adjust the hood position, place the hood so that the bottom panel leans against the drawer’s underside by adjusting element A, then tighten the screws with a screwdriver.
7. Install the grease filter and close the cover
8. Connect the duct to the connection.

OPERATING MODE

The hood is designed for operation with an external turbine.

POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
The supply voltage must correspond to the voltage indicated on the identification plate placed inside the hood. If the hood is equipped with a plug, insert it in an accessible socket compliant with the applicable regulations. If the hood is not equipped with a plug, the installation should be carried out by a certified specialist (e.g. an electrician).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before performing any maintenance operations, unplug the device from the socket. Use mild detergents for cleaning. Do not use abrasive cleaning products. Thehood should be cleaned at least once a month or every 35 hours of operation. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL-BASED CLEANING AGENTS. Inox parts should be cleaned with special product (e.g. BERNER).
ANTI-GREASE FILTER
The hood is equipped with an aluminium filter which partially traps grease particles. You can wash the filter manually by immersing it for 15 minutes in 40-50ºC water with dishwashing liquid.
After 15 minutes, wash and rinse the filter thoroughly. Dry well before placing it back in the hood.
You can also wash it in a dishwasher. After cleaning, you may notice a slight discolouration of the filter, which does not affect its properties. A regularly cleaned filter will help to maintain the efficiency of the hood and prevent the risk of fire.
SETTINGS
The hood is controlled by two knobs:

• Lighting knob
• Motor knob

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT
ATTENTION!

• DISCONNECT THE HOOD’S POWER SUPPLY PRIOR TO REPLACING THE BULBS.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE LIGHT BULBS WHEN HOT.
• TAKE CARE NOT TO TOUCH THE INSTALLED LIGHT BULB BY HAND.

IN CASE OF PROBLEMS

The range hood does not function at all:

• Check whether the fuse in the domestic installation is not pulled out.
• Check if the thermal cutout of the motor has not been activated due to high temperature. If this is the case, switch off the device and wait for about 20 – 30 minutes until the temperature returns to normal; then switch the hood on again.
• Make sure that the plug is inserted in the socket.
• Remove the plug to restart the device. Wait for about 15 – 20 seconds and then plug it back in.
  Alternatively, you can also pull out the fuse for that time and then put it back in.

Insufficient efficiency / noisy operation:

• Check whether the cross-section of the ventilation duct is sufficient and whether it has not too many bends and sharp angles.
• Check if the return flap (if optionally installed) is not jammed in the ventilation duct.
• If the ventilation duct is equipped with a swinging grille, remove it.
• Make sure that the metal filters are clean.
• Replace the active carbon filter if it is older than 6 months (only in recirculation mode).
• Check whether the amount of air extracted from the kitchen is balanced by sufficient fresh air supply (to prevent negative pressure).
• Check whether the ventilation chimney is not obstructed.
• Excessively low atmospheric pressure may reduce the performance of the hood. Verify the functioning of the hood again on another day.

ENERGY LABEL

The above energy label is only an example. The actual data can deviate from that specified above in any other model.
REDUCING THE IMPACT OF COOKING ON THE ENVIRONMENT

• In order to reduce energy consumption, cover pots and pans with lids while cooking.
• Keep the aluminium filters clean (the recommended cleaning schedule for the filter is at least once every 35 hours).
• Keep the ventilation ducts unobstructed.
• Always set the turbine speed during cooking to the minimum required level, allowing for fume extraction at the current cooking intensity.
