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.4). Then fix it to the ceiling using 

the screws 

A

 (Fig.4) 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.5). Insert the upper flue into the lower 

flue. Fix the lower flue to the hood using the screws 

B

 provided 

(Fig.5), extract the upper flue up to the bracket and fix it with 

the screws 

B

 (Fig.4). 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.8).

  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 used to trap any grease particles 

suspended in the air, therefore is subject to saturation (the 

time it takes for the filter to become saturated depends on 

the way in which the appliance is used).

-  To prevent potential fire hazards, the anti-grease filters 

should be washed a minimum of every 2 months (it is pos-

sible to use the dishwasher for this task).

-  After a few washes, the colour of the filters may change. 

This does not mean they have to be replaced.

If the replacement and washing instructions are not fol-

lowed, the anti-grease filters may present a fire hazard.

•  The active carbon filters

 are used to purify the air which 

is released back into the room. The filters are not washable 

or re-usable and must be replaced at least once every four 

months. The active carbon filter saturation level depends on 

the frequency with which the appliance is used, the type of 

cooking performed and the regularity with which the anti-

grease filters are cleaned.

•  

Clean the cooker hood frequently, both inside and outside, 

using a cloth which has been dampened with denatured al-

cohol or neutral, 

non

-abrasive liquid detergents.

•  

The light on the cooker hood is designed for use during 

cooking and not for general room illumination. Extended 

use of the light reduces the average duration of the bulb.

•  Replacing halogen light bulbs (Fig.6):

To replace the halogen light bulbs 

B

, remove the glass pane 

C

 using a lever action on the relevant cracks.

Replace the bulbs with new ones of the same type.

 Caution:

 do not touch the light bulb with bare hands.

•  Commands (Fig.9):

Push-button A =

 On/off lights switch.

Push-button B =

 On/off cooker hood switch. The appliance 

switches on at speed level 1, If the cooker hood is on depress 

the push-button for 2 sec. to switch off the cooker hood. If 

the cooker hood is at speed level 1 it will not be necessary 

to depress the push-button to switch the cooker hood off. 

Decreases the motor speed.

Display C =

 Indicates the motor speed level selected and 

activates the timer.

Push-button D =

 Switches on the cooker hood. Increases the 

motor speed. Touching the key at 3rd speed, the intensive 

function runs for 10’, then the appliance go back to work at 

the original speed. During this function the display blinks.

Key E =

 The Timer times the functions on activation for 15 

minutes, after which they are switched off. The Timer is deac-

tivated by re-pressing 

Key E

. When the Timer is activated the 

decimal point must flash on the display. The Timer cannot be 

activated if the intensive speed is functioning.

The “

clean air

” function is activated by pressing key 

E

 for 2 

seconds when the appliance is switched off. This switches the 

motor on for 10 minutes every hour at the first speed. During 

functioning a rotary movement of the peripheral segments 

must be visualised on the display. When this time has passed 

the motor switches off and the fixed letter “

C

” must be visual-

ised on the display until the motor re-starts after 50 minutes 

for another 10 minutes and so on. Press any key apart from 

the light keys to return to normal functioning. Press key 

E

 to 

deactivate the function.

•  Active carbon/grease filter saturation:

- When display item 

C

 flashes, at a speed where it alternates 

with the letter 

F 

(e.g. 1 and 

F

), the 

grease 

filters must be 

washed.

- When display item 

C

 flashes, at a speed where it alternates 

with the letter 

A 

(e.g. 1 and 

A

), the 

carbon 

filters must be 

replaced.

After the clean filter has been positioned correctly, the 

electronic memory must be reset by pressing button 

A

 for 

approximately 

5 seconds

, until the indication 

F

 or 

A

 shown 

on the display 

C

 stops flashing.
