DO NOT use the hood if the power supply cable or other components are damaged:
disconnect the hood from the electrical power supply and contact the Dealer or an autho-
rised Servicing Department for repairs.

INSTALLATION WARNINGS

TECHNICAL SAFETY
Before installing the hood, check the integrity and function of each part.
Should anomalies be noted, do not proceed with installation and contact
the Dealer.
DO NOT install the hood if an aesthetic defect has been detected. Put it back into its
original package and contact the dealer.
No claim can be made for aesthetic defects once it has been installed.
During installation, always use personal protective equipment (e.g.: accident-prevention
shoes) and adopt prudent and proper conduct.
The ixing kit (screws and plugs) supplied with the hood is only to be used on masonry walls:
in case of installation on walls of a diferent material, assess other ixing systems keeping the
wall resistance and weight of the hood in mind (indicated on page 2).
Keep in mind that installations with diferent types of ixing systems from those supplied, or
which are not compliant, can cause electrical and mechanical seal danger.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to atmospheric agents (rain, wind,
etc.).
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The electrical system to which the hood is to be connected must be ac-
cording to standard and supplied with earthed connection in compliance
with safety regulations in the country of use. It must also comply with Eu-
ropean standards regarding radio antistatic properties.
Before installing the hood, check that the electrical mains power supply corresponds with
what is reported on the identiication plate located inside the hood.
The socket used to connect the installed equipment to the electrical power supply must
be within reach: otherwise, install a mains switch to disconnect the hood when required.
Any changes to the electrical system must be carried out by a qualiied electrician.
The maximum length of the lue ixing screws (supplied by the manufacturer) must be 13
mm. Use of non-compliant screws with these instructions can lead to danger of an electrical
nature.
Do not try to solve the problem yourself in the event of equipment malfunction, but contact
the Dealer or an authorised Servicing Department for repairs.
When installing the hood, disconnect the equipment by removing the
plug or switching of the main switch.
FUMES DISCHARGE SAFETY
Do not connect the equipment to discharge pipes of fumes produced
from combustion (for example boilers, ireplaces, etc.).
Before installing the hood, ensure that all standards in force regarding discharge of air out of
the room have been complied with.
USER WARNINGS
These warnings have been drawn up for your personal safety and those of
others. You are therefore kindly asked to read the booklet carefully in its
entirety before using the equipment or carrying out cleaning operations.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused directly, or in-
directly, to persons, things and pets as a consequence of failing to comply with the
safety warnings indicated in this booklet.
It is imperative that this instructions booklet is kept together with the equipment for
any future consultation.
If the equipment is sold or transferred to another person, make sure that the booklet is
also supplied so that the new user can be made aware of the hood's operation and relative
warnings.
After the stainless steel hood has been installed, it will need to be cleaned to remove any
residues from the protection adhesive as well as any grease and oil stains which, if not remo-
ved, can cause irreversible damage to the hood surface. To do so the manufacturer recom-
mends using the supplied moist wipes, which are also available sold separately.
Insist on original spare parts.
INTENDED USE
The equipment is solely intended to be used to extract fumes generated from cook-
ing food in non-professional domestic environments: any other use is improper, can
cause damage to persons, things and pets and exempts the Manufacturer from any
liability.
The equipment can be used by children above the age of 8 and by persons with reduced
physical, sensory and mental abilities, or with no experience or knowledge, as long as they
do so under supervision or after having received relative instructions regarding safe use of
the equipment and understanding of the dangers connected to it.
Children are not to play with the equipment. Cleaning and maintenance by the user must
not be carried out by children without supervision.
USE AND CLEANING WARNINGS
Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance operations, disconnect the
equipment by removing the plug or switching of the main switch.
Do not use the hood with wet hands or bare feet.
Always check that all electrical parts (lights, extractor fan) are of when the equipment is
not used.
The maximum overall weight of any objects placed or hung (if applicable) on the hood must
not exceed 1.5 Kg.
Check the deep-fryers during use: Overheated oil can catch ire.
Do not light naked lames under the hood.
Do not lambé foods under the hood.
Never use the hood without the metal anti-grease ilters: in this case, grease and dirt will
deposit in the equipment and compromise its operation.
Accessible parts of the hood can be hot if used together with cooking appliances.
Do not carry out any cleaning operations when parts of the hood are still hot.
There can be a risk of ire if cleaning is not carried out according to the methods and pro-
ducts indicated in this booklet.
Disconnect the main switch when the equipment is not used for long periods of time.
If other appliances that use gas or other fuels are being used at the same
time (boiler, stove, ireplaces, etc.), make sure the room where the fumes
are extracted is well-ventilated, in compliance with the current regula-
tions.
INSTALLATION
only intended for personnel qualiied
Before installing the hood, carefully read chap. "Safety Instructions and
Warnings".

TECHNICAL FEATURES

The technical speciications are reported on the labels located inside the hood.
POSITIONING
The minimum distance between the highest part of the equipment for cooking and
the lowest part of the hood is indicated in the assembly instructions.
Generally, when the hood is placed on gas cookers, this distance must be at least 65 cm
(25.6''). However, according to an interpretation of standard EN60335-2-31 dated 11-07-
2002 of TC61 (sub-clause 7.12.1 meeting 15 agenda item 10.11), the minimum distance
between the cooker and lower part of the hood can be reduced to the quota reported in
the assembly instructions.
Should the instructions for the gas cooker specify a greater distance, take this into consi-
deration.
Do not install the hood outdoors and do not expose it to atmospheric agents (rain, wind,
etc.).
