FREESTANDING HOOD

1. Hood cover
2. Grease filter
3. Front visor (*not available in all versions)
4. Speed switch/lighting
5. Lights cover

DEVICE INSTALLATION

For its proper installation, it should be at least 65 cm from electric burners and 75 cm from gas or other combustible energy source.

Place 2X2W led lamps in the lamp holders. Do not use lamps of more than 40W power because they might cause overheating. To avoid noise and vibrations, we recommend placing foam tape on the back between the hood and the wall or at the top between the hood and the cabinet, depending on how you will mount the hood.

The fixing of the hood can be made, either from the holes in the rear of the hood (Fig. 2) to the wall or by securing the top in a cabinet (Fig.3).

Maximum length of the mounting screws should be 4.0mm

Warning! If the current instructions of mounting the device and screws usage are not followed there will be a risk of electrical hazard.
The hood can be used either for the extraction of odors to the outside or for air filtering and recycling. The installation should be done accordingly. The recycling option is appropriate where there is no possibility of installing exhaust pipes to the outside.

Chimney connection for extracting air out
Place the plastic connecting in the outlet of the device at the top. The plastic connecting fastens at the top of the hood.
There is the possibility of outlet from the back of the device, in this case carefully remove the metal cover by using a screwdriver and insert the plastic outlet connection, in which the exhaust pipe will be connected. The special exit cover should be placed at the outlet located at the top (* this cover is not provided in the package and must be purchased separately).

The hood must be connected to Φ120 mm diameter pipe. The connection with the pipe is made with the plastic connecting located within the device.
Long pipes and several curves affect negatively the performance of the hood and should be avoided. Horizontal sections must have a slight call to the exit.
The use of spiral tubes is not recommended because the performance of the hood is reduced.

The exhaust air should not be dissipated in a conductor which is used for another use such as fume extracting. Local regulations which involve ventilation and evacuation should be applied

Air recycling operation
The hood can be fitted with a carbon filter which is not contained in the package and it can be separately purchased. Ask for the suitable type in the retail store or in a resale service center.
Secure the carbon filter to the upper part of grease filter with the special wires (Fig 7).
Rotate the special lever to Recycling function (Fig. 8)
*In the case of product version where air outlet from the front part is supported, remove the special cover. (Fig 9)

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Ensure that the power supply complies with the one specified on the hood’s plate.
The electrical installation must be performed by a licensed electrician. For installations in an overvoltage category III network, the device should be capable of being disconnected from the supply. For this reason, means of disconnection should be installed in the fixed external wiring, in compliance with international and local regulations for indoor electrical installations. In the case of possible contact of the fixed wiring with the ceiling panels of the device, the fixed wiring must be protected.

In order to work effectively, the hood must start operating just when you switch on the hobs. When cooking finishes, wait another ten minutes before stopping its operation. During cooking, leave a door or window that communicates with the interior of your house ajar. Do not leave your kitchen window or exterior door open, as drafts are created, so all cooking vapors and odors will spread into the room.

CAUTION If hood and fireplace, oil gas heater, wood or other combustible appliance operate at the same time, you must leave an open window or door that communicates with an external space.

MAINTENANCE

The device can be washed with warm soapy water using a well-drained sponge. Regular maintenance increases the performance of your hood.
