2/ HOOD INSTALLATION
A correct installation must be carried out for the good functioning of the downdraft.
1) Make a rectangular hole in the rear part of the furniture's surface suitable for the dimen-
sions of your hood (Fig. 1).
2) If a gas hob is utilised, the minimum distance from the rear edge of the cooking hob to the
downdraft must be at least 50 mm. The DHD1101 model must be installed between two
cooking hobs with a maximum of two gas rings each.
3) Before cutting the hole, check that there are no internal structural parts of the furniture
or other elements in correspondence to the hood zone that could compromise the correct
installation.
To permit the installation, verify that the overall dimensions of the hood including its motor
are compatible with the furniture.
The motor is delivered already attached to the equipment so as to avoid any damage dur-
ing transportation. The motor must be removed from the hood before starting installation
operations.
4) Apply the glue to the lower part of the hood's edge (Fig. 2).
5) Insert the downdraft inside the furniture from the top.
6) The edge of the hood must be perfectly fixed to the upper surface of the kitchen furniture.
7) Fix the hood inside the furniture utilising the two supplied brackets (fig. 3).
8) Proceed with the assembly of the motor onto the body of the hood orientating the air outlet
to the desired higher or lower position (Design 4).
The motor can be fitted in the front or rear part of the hood.
To install the motor in the rear part, proceed as follows: unscrew the plate situated in the
rear part of the hood, screw the motor to the hood in place of the plate, correctly connect
the motor cable and screw the plate back onto the front part of the hood. Attach the air
extractor tube (not supplied). Connect the other end of the tube to the outside of the fur-
niture for a filter installation or to the outside of the habitation for an extractor installation
(Fig. 5).
Attention: To avoid damaging internal sliding components such as the electrical parts, do
not make other holes in the product.
9) Position the metal box containing the electronic components in an easily accessible posi-
tion for any eventual assistance intervention. Connect all electrical connectors to the hood.
10) Connect the hood to the electrical mains circuit.
11) Once the installation has been completed and the hood has been connected to the electrical
mains circuit, start the extraction of the carriage (refer to the chapter about how the hood
functions) and remove all protective material (Fig. 6 and Fig. 7).
