 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 simultane-

ously 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 environ-

ment which a burner or fireplace need for combustion. The 

negative pressure in the environment must not exceed 4Pa 

(4x10-5 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 mains supply through 

either a plug fused 3A or hardwired to a 2 phase 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) Flambè 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 over-

heated 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,

  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.

•  

The minimum distance between the support surfaces of 

the cooking pots on the cooker top and the lowest part of 

the cooker 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 ex-

haust 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

E

 - Fig.6

E

) 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.

•  

Before this operation, perform the following steps 

depending on the model purchased:

- Model without perimeter suction panel:

Pull handle 

E

 as shown in Fig.5.

- Model with perimeter suction panel:

Open panel 

D

 as shown in Fig.6.

Pull handle 

E

 as shown in Fig.6.

•  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, plaster-

board, 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.
